Below are my weekly power rankings for the top (8) clubs teams in UEFA. These rankings are a combination of their play in domestic and UEFA competitions.

The rankings haven’t changed from the last (late January) as the top three remain the same. Teams who make a jump into list include Borussia Dortmund but it remains very close. The list (top is below along with the teams just missing the rankings.

Real Madrid - Los Blancos have a commanding lead in La Liga and can start targeting the Champions League.
FC Barcelona - Barca have looked uninspired at times in La Liga but they seem to always rise to the occasion against the top teams. They are still behind Real in these rankings but would probably be favored if they meet in the Champions League.
Manchester City - They remain on top in the EPL and probably the favorite in the Europa League due to their squad depth.
Juventus - The Italian Serie A leaders move up several spots and remain undefeated in the current season.
Manchester United - The Red Devils are 2nd in the EPL but doubt is starting to grow whether they can win a 20th league title.
Bayern Munich – They are in 2nd place in the Bundesliga and one of the few teams that could knock off Real or Barca in the Champions League.
AC Milan - The Rossoneri are keeping pace with Juve for the Scudetto and the highest scoring team with 43 goals through 22 matches.
Borussia Dortmund - The defending Bundesliga champions are on pace for another title and have not lost a league match since September.

Teams just missing the rankings - Paris Saint-Germain, Benfica, Tottenham Hotspur, Udinese
