Jamie Carragher and Micah Richards have given their opinions on who they think will win this season's Champions League with the former Premier League stars picking Man City and Napoli respectively.
The players turned pundits were speaking during Tuesday's coverage of the competition's return on CBS Sports.
'I think Napoli are the form team,' said Carragher. 'I would love to see them win it but I think this could the season of Manchester City.'
However, Richards doesn't think his former side will end their wait for a first triumph in the competition, instead singling out Serie A's runaway leaders.
'I think Napoli,' he said. 'Napoli with their form have been brilliant. In terms of standout favourites it's difficult but on form I think Napoli.
'If I was a betting man and I was putting money on right now in terms of form I would pick Napoli. When I watch them and the dynamic, they defend well, they attack well.
Arsenal legend Henry was unable to pick out one team, saying 'for the first time I don't see a clear favourite'.
'At the end we always know that the big guns are in the final or one of the big ones usually wins it. It is open but still you have to knock those guys out.'
Man City are facing RB Leipzig in the last-16 while Napoli are up against Eintracht Frankfurt.
City have been made favourites by bookmakers with Bayern Munich just behind them after Tuesday's first leg victory over PSG.

English pundits like talking too much and they will always have a favourite to win the UCL but at the end of the day teams that they didn't expect you win it os they should give as a break

If there's a season City should not even be thought of winning UCL, it's this season. They are no longer the same mighty team they used to be. In my opinion, know-how Madrid are there to win it for the 15th time and I dont see anybody who will stop Vini and KB9 from winning it

I think Real Madrid will retain, not because they are too good but no other clubs perform that high either

All the Manchester United camp we should be praying for a draw 'Tonight'. They have to drop two points each - nd the title wil fully be wide open⚫🔴

As long as Pep and Arteta are Around, United will never win EPL even if they lead by 10 points after 20 games. United aren't best known for Consistency.

with PSG'S, Bayern's and Real Madrid's unconvincing form at the moment, it is safe to say Man City or Napoli are favourites (based on current form).
