Former Liverpool player, Danny Murphy, has picked the favourite club to win the UEFA Champions League this season.
According to Murphy, Arsenal are probably the favourites to win the European top-flight league because of the side of the draw the Gunners find themselves on and their defensive solidity.
“Arsenal are so good defensively and even when they’re not playing well,” Murphy said on talkSPORT.
“They are probably favourites to win the Champions League because of the side of the draw they’re on, you would expect them to get to the final.”
Arsenal will take on Sporting CP in the quarter-final of the Champions League following a 2-0 win against Bayer Leverkusen in the Round of 16 second leg encounter on Tuesday.
Mikel Arteta’s side remains the only undefeated team in the Champions League this season.
