Current holders Real Madrid are only 12th.

“I’ve always felt that the favourite to win the tournament is Manchester City, and then Real Madrid, but I also see a very strong Arsenal team,” Aguero told Stake.

“However, I do hope both Man City and Barca can conquer this edition.

“But to tell you my prediction, I feel that this year’s Final will have two teams that no one is expecting.”
