Prepare for a footballing spectacle as the UEFA Champions League Group F unveils itself as this season’s “Group of Death.” While it’s a dream draw for the neutral fan, the supporters of the four participating teams are bracing themselves for a potential nightmare.
With Milan’s placement in Pot 3, the specter of landing in a formidable group was always looming, and that’s precisely what has come to pass. PSG emerges as slight favorites with Kylian Mbappé’s return, but they face the challenge of forging a cohesive unit under new manager Luis Enrique.
Milan, bolstered by savvy summer acquisitions and a strong semifinal run last season, isn’t far behind. Borussia Dortmund grapples with 2023-24 season struggles and the loss of Jude Bellingham to Real Madrid, leaving a midfield gap to fill.
Lastly, Newcastle United fans, after a 20-year hiatus, find themselves in a dream draw with nothing to lose. They join PSG and Milan in a fierce battle for a coveted spot in the last 16, promising a series of epic clashes in Group F.
