I've already had a bet but I was thinking more about how much running and sprinting teams are doing this season. Distance run for the 8 CL teams below
Distance run per match (UCL)
Atl Madrid - 1438.22km R Madrid - 1427.38km Sp Lisbon - 1298.79km Arsenal - 1273.46km PSG - 1245.67km B Munich - 1217.80km Liverpool - 1133.61km Barcelona - 1132.32km
So I've already backed PSG to wallop Liverpool tonight. We just look so unfit really. Their midfield is probably the best around and ours is no match. While Ibrahima Scene-of-the-Crime will have all 3 attackers running off him. Meanwhile we seem to be pinning our hopes on a striker coming back who hasn't played for months.
But secondly I'm thinking of backing Atleti v Barca. Simeone seems to have a good record against Flick's Barca. They knocked them out of the cup and only lost at the weekend due to a late goal and being a man down for the second half. Barca don't scream 1.55 shots to me, though you never know if Lamal turns it on admittedly.
You need to read distance stats with possession stats for full context. 3 of the bottom 4, PSG, Bayern and Barca are the only teams with 60%+ possession. PSG have the highest possession by far, 67.4%, so their stats look best of the lot by far. Liverpool have 55.4% so their stats are worst of the lot by far.

I wouldn't go near Atletico either. They are a different team away from home. If the first leg was at home they'd have a better chance but Barca should win tonight by 2 or more. They are missing Oblak too. The game at the weekend they both rested their strikers with an eye on tonight.
