The 2023/24 UEFA Champions League group stage draw has delivered yet another thrilling lineup, and fans are already buzzing about the so-called "Group of Death"—Group F, featuring a heavyweight showdown between Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), Borussia Dortmund, AC Milan, and Newcastle United.

This stacked group promises high drama, tactical battles, and fierce competition, making it one of the most unpredictable and exciting groups in recent Champions League history.

Breaking Down the Group of Death

Paris Saint-Germain (PSG)

After losing Lionel Messi and Neymar, PSG enters a new era under coach Luis Enrique, banking on Kylian Mbappé and a revamped squad. The French giants are desperate for European success, but questions remain over their defensive stability.

Milan

Last season’s Serie A runners-up and semifinalists, Stefano Pioli’s Rossoneri, boast a mix of experience and youth, with Rafael Leão leading the charge. Their physicality and tactical discipline make them a serious contender to advance.

Borussia Dortmund

The German side narrowly missed last season’s Bundesliga title but remain formidable, especially at Signal Iduna Park, where their passionate fans create an intimidating atmosphere. The addition of Marcel Sabitzer and Niclas Füllkrug strengthens their attack.

Newcastle United

Back in the Champions League after 20 years, Eddie Howe’s revitalized Newcastle will be a wildcard. With Sandro Tonali, Alexander Isak, and Bruno Guimarães, they possess the quality to cause upsets but must adapt quickly to Europe’s elite.
