The next rival of the Barça

Juventus, the runner-up resists

The first meeting of the Barça of Valverde will be in front of the last finalist of the Champions. In spite of the revolcón that the Italians carried in the final, his season was to take into account and will try to go back to arrive far in Europe. The drop of the omnipresente Dani Alves has weakened them, but in spite of the interest of the other big in his stars are trying to retain to his best pieces. Besides, the group transalpino wants to give a hit in the market of signings, where looks for several reinforcements and some crack for afilar his attack. With a very compact team, the 'bianconeri' characterise by a solid defence and a less brilliant attack but very effective.

Manchester United, an applicant covered

After some years of doubts, the Manchester United will be again a team Champions in the next campaign. The English have recovered a big level of the hand of José Mourinho and are the current champions of the Europe League. The Portuguese warned that they still are not prepared to aspire to the maximum continental competition but are qualified to win in front of any rival. The economic power of the British has brought already to Victor Lindelöf and to Romelu Lukaku, but no descartan more retouchings in a staff that has left to leave to Wayne Rooney and Zlatan Ibrahimovic. With the own intensity of the teams of Mourinho and his big path in the old continent, the 'network devils' aim to be a very compensated group and remarkable in all the facets of the game.

Real Madrid, a dangerous champion

After several years to the shadow of the Barça, the Madrilenian square has given a hit in the table with a doublet of League and Champions. Zinedine Zidane has not been able to find an idea or a brilliant game but even so his team wins like any. To a plantel already very wide have added Jesús Vallejo, Marcos Llorente and Theo Hernández, whereas Pepe and Coentrao have been the first in going out but will not be the last. Besides Florentino observes the market dedicido to copar the covers with some arrival sounded. This Real Madrid is not very given to defend, but his intensity in the attack and in the average turn him into a group goleador and with a tremenda offensive capacity. To the rival maximum no can him give confidence, and less when the duel will be a preamble of the Supercopa of Spain that will be for coming.
