Lineker also feels the winner of the Real Madrid vs Manchester City will be one of the favourites.
Speaking on The Rest is Football podcast, Lineker said: “Who are the strongest sides left in the Champions League?
“Obviously Liverpool, probably Real Madrid if they go through but Man City would be up there as well.
“Then I would go Inter Milan and Atletico Madrid. PSG are much-improved, if you said they could win it at the start of the season I would have said, “no, I can’t see it”.”
PSG beat City in the group phase, but missed out on an automatic place in the knockout rounds.
However, they thrashed fellow Ligue 1 side Brest 3-0, in the first leg of their play-off tie.
