Champions League: Rio Ferdinand names team that will win trophy ahead of semi-finals

Former Manchester United defender, Rio Ferdinand, has predicted the club that will win the Champions League ahead of the semi-finals this week.

Chelsea travel to Real Madrid on Tuesday night, while PSG host Manchester City on Wednesday in the first legs.

Ferdinand feels PSG will win the final in Istanbul on May 29 and there will be no all-English final.

“I think Paris Saint-Germain will win it,’ he predicted on his Rio Ferdinand Presents FIVE YouTube channel.

“They have the experience of last season, two strikers, the business end of the season they know what it’s about now.

“They’ve been here together, they’re not fazed and I think they’ll have the experience. Pochettino comes up smelling of roses after a turbulent couple of years.”
