German legend Lothar Matthaus believes Manchester City and Liverpool are favourites for the Champions League this season.
Writing for The Sun, Matthaus opined: "I cannot wait for the Champions League to start.
"This could be a great season, absolutely. In 2019, the Champions League is THE biggest title you can win in football.
