I think Bayern Munich vs Juventus is a much more appealing match tomorrow

I know the Barcelona v PSG match is on because Barcelona is so popular but trying to look at it objectively, I think Bayern vs Juve is the better matchup.


Am I being a homer or do y'all agree?

I will still get the game on Fox Sports NOLA but it definitely seems like the more desirable of the two games to me.

I think they're all pretty intriguing match ups... Wednesday too

I see what you're saying, but ratings wise... Barca/ PSG have the sexier names..

There's no way PSG is more recognizable than Bayern Munich/Juventus. Barcelona definitely is. Maybe FSC figured David Beckham sitting on the bench can draw a few more eyes?

I dunno Ibra/Beckham alone...

To the casual person, Juve is full of no big names...

Anyway, not really goings argue... I see both sides of it..

More people know who Bayern Munich is than Zlatan Ibrahimovic. He's not that big of a star to the super casual soccer fan. I would bet more people know who Franck Ribery is.

Not at all. Bayern is on a rampage through the Bundesliga and is the world's most on-form team right now. Juventus is on pace to repeat as dominant Serie A champions.

Both Barça and PSG have underwhelmed recently. Bigger names, but not the better matchup.

PSG losing rids us of Draconian Sanctions for a year.

Advantage: Barca-PSG

All four teams sit atop their respective leagues. I just think that Juve's 3 at the back will be interesting against Bayern, who are absolutely rolling in the Bundesliga. Plus these are 2 giants in European competition so its a very attractive fixture.

Barca have just been so damn boring as of late. The only reason to watch that is to either watch Messi or Ibra

Totally agree with everything you say--aside from Ibra being a hugely recognizable persona. I think it's the most intriguing match-up of the CL so far.

I'm just hesitant because of my impression that Juve play boring defensive matches.
