Yes, I was also watching a game of a friend yesterday in CH.L., Sakis from lv42, winner of previous league, vs Yannis (2nd in previous league), from lv41
In the beginning of this issue, I was thinking that it was a scenario, creating an obstacle for the League/double/treble winners to win a 2nd in a row but as you can see, Sakis has a chance this time, to win the treble more easily.

Also I can assure you that his quality is good (7* players team) so it's not that scenario either.
