    Heard this on a podcast the other day. Next year will be only the second time that 3 teams from the same city will be in the Champions League in the same competition.

    London: Arsenal, Chelsea & Spurs.

    Can anyone name the only other city to have had 3 football teams in the Champions League at the same time.

    Can only think of Athens (Panathinaikos, AEK, Olympiakos) or Moscow (Spartak, Lokomotiv or CSKA). Can't think of another city that has had three in the CL let alone in the same season. Could be the Greeks though.

    Olympiakos are from the fishing city of Pireaus, not Athens.
