Game Preview

The top eight teams automatically advance to the round of 16, while teams ranked 9th to 24th will enter a playoff to secure the remaining spots.

In UEFA Champions league today match prediction, Manchester City and Inter Milan clash in this new format, with City entering as heavy favorites. They aim to build on their impressive start to the season and last year’s Champions League success. Inter Milan, on the other hand, seeks to bounce back after a slow start to their Serie A campaign.
