Real Madrid are just three games away from back-to-back Champions League titles after beating Bayern Munich last Tuesday in the return leg of the quarterfinals. Bayern are arguably one of the best teams in Europe but the road to the Final is not getting any easier, with Atletico de Madrid, Juventus and Monaco as the potential opponents for Los Blancos.
It would probably be right to tag Monaco as the weakest side on the draw and yet they have some very promising players like Kylian Mbappe or Benjamin Mendy playing great football lately. Atletico de Madrid and Juventus are rock solid, however, so Zinedine Zidane's men would be quite lucky to draw Monaco this time around.
Real Madrid have a decent shot at winning this competition again as it seems that they are gaining momentum. They definitely have the potential to beat any of those three teams over two legs but it's clear that players like Ronaldo or Ramos will need to be at their very best if Los Blancos want to succeed.
