And so we find the RC Lens in hat 4 : Real Sociedad (Spain), Galatasaray (Turkey), Celtic Glasgow (Scotland), Newcastle United (England), Union Berlin (Germany), RC Lens (France), Royal Antwerp (Belgium) or AEK Athens (Greece), Young Boys from Bern (Switzerland).
Hat 3 also looks good : Shakhtar Donetsk (Ukraine), RB Salzburg (Austria), AC Milan (Italy), SC Braga (Portugal), Lazio Rome (Italy), Red Star Belgrade (Serbia), Glasgow Rangers (Scotland) or PSV Eindhoven (Country- Bottom), FC Copenhagen (Denmark).
The hat 2 is almost as much, with some top names to avoid : Real Madrid (Spain), Manchester United (England), Borussia Dortmund (Germany), Atlético Madrid (Spain), RB Leipzig (Germany), FC Porto (Portugal), Arsenal (England), Inter Milan (Italy).
Hat 1 – that of PSG – is therefore very high: FC Barcelona (Spain), Manchester City (England), Naples (Italy), Bayern Munich (Germany), PSG (France), Benfica (Portugal), Sevilla FC (Spain), Feyenoord Rotterdam (Netherlands).
How are the hats made? The constitution of the hats is carried out on several criteria: the current level of competitiveness of the clubs on the domestic level and the recent past on the European level. Thus, pot 1 consists of the champions of the past season, to which is added the winner of the Europa League.
Good evening everyone ! It’s back to school all over the continent. The cream of European football is meeting in Monaco this Thursday evening for the draw for the group stage of this 2023-24 edition of the Champions League. The event starts at 6 p.m.
