The Opta Supercomputer changed its mind after two rounds and has pointed to a NEW favorite for the 2025/26 Champions League title.
Previously, Liverpool was considered the favorite. The club even beat Atlético de Madrid 3-2, but then lost to Galatasaray 1-0.
As a result, the Supercomputer "recalculated the route" and now has Arsenal as the main candidate to lift the Big Ears trophy this season.
Arsenal beat Athletic Bilbao away and Olympiacos at home. With that, the Gunners occupy fifth place, with six points.
Besides Arsenal, only FIVE other teams have a 100% record after two rounds: Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, PSG, Inter Milan, and Qarabag.
Check out the updated ranking of favorites and leave your prediction: who will lift the Big Ears trophy on May 30, 2026, in Budapest?
