"Bayer Leverkusen wanted to draw Arsenal, and their hopes came true, as the Gunners will face Leverkusen in the round of 16, a match Deeney thinks Arteta's side will win 'comfortably'. If Arsenal do reach the quarter-finals, Deeney believes they will face Bodo/Glimt rather than Sporting CP, and again, thinks Arsenal will win."
"Then came the semi-final, which is where things got 'controversial' for Deeney. Predicting a Barcelona vs Arsenal Champions League semi-final, the former Premier League striker said: 'Controversial, I know, but Barcelona to get through.' To round it off, he predicted that Manchester City would win the Champions League, beating Barcelona in the final."
Troy Deeney has made predictions for Arsenal's Champions League knockout route. He believes Arsenal will comfortably defeat Bayer Leverkusen in the round of 16 and advance past Bodo/Glimt in the quarter-finals. However, Deeney predicts Barcelona will eliminate Arsenal in the semi-final, with Manchester City ultimately winning the Champions League by defeating Barcelona in the final. This contrasts with Opta's assessment that Arsenal are favorites to win the competition, particularly given their strong performance in the league phase and their favorable knockout route compared to other contenders.
