Real Madrid: Real Madrid had a successful season last year, reclaiming the La Liga title and adding another Champions League trophy to their collection. The arrival of Mbappé and Endrick has further bolstered their attack, making them even more formidable. Despite a mixed pre-season, where they lost to Milan and Barcelona, Real Madrid remains a dominant force. However, they will miss David Alaba in defense due to injury.
Atalanta: Atalanta has been a consistent performer in recent seasons, and their Europa League victory last year was a testament to their quality. They have made some strategic additions to their squad, including De Ketelaere and Zaniolo. However, their form has dipped recently, and the loss of Scamacca is a significant blow.
