26 minutes into play the score is still level now and there hasn't been a chance that has really stumped the Leipzig goalkeeper so far. But indeed, looking at Ancelotti's conditions and tactics, it's still not visible because if you look at some of the matches and the schemes they run, they will kick off in the minutes before the end of the first or second half whistle.
The first half of the match between Madrid and Leipzig was almost over and both teams were still looking for their first goal today, even though Madrid managed to control the ball throughout the match, but it was Leipzig that endangered the current madrid defense, Leipzig who began to rise after a change of coach Instead they played quite well even though they tried to defend a little and the attacks they had built so far were quite effective and managed to threaten the madrid defense several times, the tactics used by Marco Rose so far seemed effective in locking Madrid game so that it did not develop and proved until near the first half ended the score was still 0-0. |

It can be said that Juventus is very lucky to get into the Champions League but unfortunately Juventus does not yet have the strength to be able to compete with several other big clubs, so this is very detrimental to Juventus because they cannot perform optimally and give victory to the Juventus fans. They have to get up and try their best to get away from group H.
The situation will be even more difficult if there is no new step from Massimiliano Allegri to bring about a change in game strategy, because Juventus are in the same group as PSG and Benfica who are one of the best clubs in Ligue 1 and Primeira Liga. Until now based on performance, Juventus is still below the average of Benfica and PSG, this will certainly make it difficult for Juventus to qualify for the next round. Juventus actually made a lot of transfers this season to strengthen their team, but in fact they are still very difficult to win in every game, the presence of Di Maria at the beginning of the season gave fresh air to Juventus fans by winning several victories but after Di Maria was injured, Juventus performance declined drastically currently, if you look at the current condition of juventus it seems difficult to see them qualify from the group phase which is filled with strong teams like PSG and Benfica, today they will face Benfica in the champions league and this could be the beginning of the revival of juventus in my opinion, but if juventus again experiencing defeat maybe it's time for the juventus fans to throw in the towel. |

Arsenal's current weakness is that their back-up players don't seem ready to replace positions that are sometimes left by their main players. Looks like they have to find a way to make this worry not really happen. They have to make rotations that can work well in each position. Otherwise, as you said, the possibility of them losing their position in the standings is wide open.
You're right about that, it's not enough that they started the league well. Premeir League is one of the most difficult leagues and there must be enough players in the team, Arsenal can have a hard time if any injury occurs. I think they have a large enough roster right now, but it is very difficult to replace some players. Unfortunately, there is not much that can be done about this anymore  Undergoing a busy season because playing in several competitions, of course, it takes a balanced squad depth, both the core and reserve squads, for the core players we can say that Arsenal have a capable squad but this is not accompanied by a good reserve squad, so when Arteta rotates players, it is very obvious that arsenal's game is far from good and it is difficult to face weak teams like Zurich some time ago, besides that Arteta has difficulty making substitutions when a player is injured and actually makes them weak because they don't have a suitable substitute, The real case was seen when Elneny and Partey were injured and missed against Manchester so Arteta had to field Lokonga who I think is not strong in defense. |

33 is not too bad for a striker, the likes of Benzema and Lewandowski are still performing.
Of course 33 isn't too old for a striker, like you rightly mentioned Lewandowski, Benzema, and many other strikers, and infact players above 30 are still performing quite well, but then again you need to take a closer look at the teams these players play for, Benzema is currently playing for the European champions, quite a lot of the players above and around that age that are still firing on all cylinders are in top clubs, Diego Costa i'm afraid hasn't moved to a top club btw, so you can't expect too much from him in Wolves, he will do his best for sure, but a club can never be a one man party. I really thought he used to be a Chelsea player who was very dangerous when he was in front of the opponent goal, had a stocky and high body but able to run fast a make him a pretty perfect striker in his time, but to be honest I was very surprised when I saw his performance down drastic even wasted at a time when he was still very potential as a football player, but what was even more surprising when Wolves announced Diego Costa as their new player after we had not heard from him for a long time and I'm sure if maybe some of us here have forgotten about him, I hope that Diego Costa can take advantage of his second chance to return to being the best striker in the Premier League and hopefully at his age now he no longer behaves badly or no longer relies on emotions that will only harm himself and Wolves in the end. |

The defeat that has just been obtained from Bayern Munich cannot be said that Barcelona will look weak when competing in El Clasico. Barcelona played very well at the Allianz arena, Xavi men had threatened the Munich goal several times, but due to a lack of good finishing, Barcelona could not score a goal against Munich. Xavi certainly will not repeat the same mistake against Real Madrid in El Clasico, their failure to find the net in Munich will continue to be evaluated to maximize the opportunities they get. Barcelona rely heavily on Lewandowski when it comes to scoring goals, as a win in El Clasico could see Barcelona catch up with Real Madrid.
They lose effectiveness in completing the opportunities they have. Apart from that Neuer performed well so he could break several chances from Barcelona. They played really well, but that wasn't enough to get them to win the game. Effectiveness is something they have to improve on now, their weakness is still visible here. The high intensity that is presented in the El Classico match is an attraction for us to always wait for the match, I think the defeat to Bayern Munich clearly did not have any effect on Barcelona because El Classico was still played for quite a long time, besides that, we are agree Barcelona performance in the match against Bayern Munchen actually they played quite well but lacked effectiveness in finishing making Barcelona have to get a defeat in that match, I personally agree if indeed we can't use one defeat as a reference to say barcelona is weak because anyway the champions league does have a different atmosphere during this is compared to league games including El Classico. |

Real Madrid will host Leipzig, and it should be a comfortable win for Real Madrid. Leipzig are not in a completely good state now, on the contrary Real Madrid they are in good form even unbeaten in the domestic league.
Leipzig have had some ups and downs in the Bundesliga, but they got a breath of fresh air after beating Borussia Dortmund earlier this week.
Real Madrid is in perfect condition both in the league and in the Champions League group stage at the moment, at the La Liga level so far Real Madrid has won 5 perfect victories and managed to collect 15 points, as well as at the Champions League level, Real Madrid managed to beat the representatives of Scotland by the score was quite convincing in the first match of the champions league this season, facing Leipzig will certainly be an interesting match but I think it will be a difficult match for Real Madrid, indeed on paper Madrid are far superior to Leipzig but the rise of Leizig in the Bundesliga last week, of course Real Madrid should be aware of this in the match because previously Leipzig managed to beat Dortmund under new coaching Marco Rose. |

It was a really interesting day in the Champions League. Barcelona were the better side especially in the first half but the second half was way different. Bayern Munich made the score 2-0 in only four minutes. I still don't understand how Barcelona couldn't score even one goal despite having so many goal opportunities. Lewandowski was so ineffective this time and I wonder if it was related to playing against his old team. I had big hopes about Barcelona after making a progress under Xavi's management. Let's see if they will have their revenge in Camp Nou.
The thing is, in the game of football, the most important thing is to convert your chances. Barcelona dominated the first half and if the ball had run right for them they would have won this game or at least gotten a draw. This game proved that Barcelona are not yet back on track. Lewandoski’s was wasteful and not too active. I think Xavi needs to select his team base on the opponents. Frenkie De Jong should’ve started this game. Although they played quite aggressively but barcelona failed to score goals in the match, the many opportunities in the first half were not able to take advantage of barcelona properly so that it made bayern munchen rise quickly and surprise barcelona in the second half, the two goals created by bayern munchen prove that barcelona is not tough enough in front of bayern munchen even though they have lewandowski up front, but i think now barcelona game is starting to improve and is quite promising even though they are not better than bayern munchen in the current champions league  . |

It was a great surprised to Manchester united fans for Real Sociedad to defeated them 1-0 for the favour of Real Sociedad. Many people predicted for the favour of Manchester united to defeat Real Sociedad 4-1 but the match was not easy for Manchester united to win because their coach did not used their last match line up to play this match that made them to experienced defeat from the Real Sociedad. If Manchester united coach can still bench cristiano Ronaldo and other players in the first half to allow other players that know how to achieve opportunity on time to play, it will really help them to improve their points in their next match.
This just shows the priorities of the team, which means that Manchester United will focus on the Premier League in order to play in the Champions League next year. I still can’t get used to the fact that Ronaldo became a player in the second squad of Manchester United. ) And with such effectiveness, he is unlikely to be of interest to other teams. It remains to be seen whether ten Hag will give him the opportunity play in the starting lineup in the Premier League matches. The european league is not as grand and attractive as the champions league, but I don't think there is a single team that is not serious here, the rotation carried out by Ten Hag in the match against Sociedad is not because factor not being serious but indeed at this time a busy schedule requires every coach to do rotation of players to maintain their performance, I think winning the Europa League can be one of the realistic targets for Ten Hag this season besides the English League, after all, winning the European league will also be an alternative for Ten Hag to automatically qualify for the champions league next season, while for Ronaldo maybe Playing in the European League is something new for him after always playing in the Champions League, but if he is able to continue to show his best performance here then he will still be able to attract the interest of other teams if he wants to leave Manchester in January. |

I expect a few things in the Bayern Munich game against Barcelona. Barcelona are in pretty good shape at the moment, maybe even better than Bayern Munich. But we have seen in the past how good Bayern Munich can play football, people will not easily forget the 8-2 from a few years ago. Now I don't think it will be 8-2, but Barcelona must be careful that it does not fall behind quickly. It makes a big difference that Lewandowsky is now part of the Barcelona team. The best player on the field I think. That could well make the difference.
The match between barcelona and bayern munchen is one of the most awaited big matches today, apart from bringing together two big teams, today match will also be lewandowski first match against his former team, I think it will be very interesting how the bayern münchen fans welcome his return lewandowski as the enemy today and I think it looks like the Bayern Munich fans will not be happy if Lewandowski later scores in that match, Barcelona 8-2 defeat from Bayern Munich is an embarrassing record they have ever felt, but obviously now Barcelona are starting to be different and have a squad that is quite ready to face any team. |

When Man City failed in the Champions League last season, it makes Guardiola open his eyes, that Man City really needs a striker. For that Man City signed Haaland for a fairly high transfer value but it's worth it because the contribution Haaland has made to Man City so far has certainly lived up to Guardiola's expectations. We all know that Premier League still has a long way to go and everything can still change but I think Man City is still the strongest candidate to win the EPL this season.
Of course City will be strong candidates for the Premier League this season. after winning last season. they are not satisfied. Another big target will certainly be achieved by City. now City have the most prolific striker. it is not impossible that they can compete in the Champions League. many strong teams in the Champions League. but I believe City have better quality than other teams. The Premier League competition is the most competitive of any other league in Europe. that's what makes City so strong. Manchester city is able to give an impressive performance so far, has a strong defense and is supported by a sharp attack that makes them worthy of being candidates for champions this season, actually I hope that Liverpool are able to provide competition to Manchester City like last season but Liverpool poor performance at this time makes me doubt that this will happen, currently Arsenal are at the top of the table but I actually see that Manchester City is just waiting for time to overtake them at the top of the table. |

This week almost all the favorites failed to get maximum results, Bayern Munich had to draw with VfB, Borussia Dortmund had to suffer a defeat to Leipzig, the most recent being that Freiburg failed to get full points at home to Borussia Monchengladbach. It's a bit surprising to see the results of this week's match, that they failed to capitalize on a win.
The failure of big teams such as dortmund and bayern was able to be put to good use by union berlin, union berlin which had been known as an underdog team was actually able to snatch the top of the standings from bayern munchen as well as kick bayer munchen to 3rd place in the bundesliga standings this season, currently union berlin are firmly at the top of the table with 14 points from 6 games played, I think the current bundesliga looks quite competitive and looks more attractive although i'm not sure if it can last long. |

Serie A is a very tight one this year so don't expect top 5 teams to have winning streaks or 3-4+ of winning games because we can see clearly that everyone is fighting for points now and every points count for each of the teams. Also teams involved into European competitions , will sometimes prefer to risk the game in Serie A in order to get points in UCL or Europa League or even Conference. Meantime , let's see how Inter performs today against Plzen. Youre right bror, play in Europe makes the performance of some clubs decline due to the tight schedule of matches, I think this opportunity can be used by other teams who did not qualify for Europe to provide strong competition in the league, the tight schedule of matches of course forced the coach to good at rotating players otherwise they will have a bad impact at the league level because it is not uncommon for many players to get injured due to fatigue and ultimately benefit other teams. |

Actually you came here very late for the investment into the bitcoin.But the market is bearish,So this is good opportunity for you to inverse at low price.Current price is 1/3 of the old price of 60k dollars.So use the opportunity to inverse at the bearish,then market will pump you earn more from it.Don’t get panic and don’t make emotions to run your trading business.We crossed up heavy pandemic,this bearish is nothing on comparing of pandemic situation.
There is no late term in investing in bitcoin, speculative price movements make bitcoin an alternative investment that does have high prospects in the future, currently the bitcoin price has fallen far from the ATH that has ever happened and considering the many adoptions made by the world community of bitcoin at this time certainly gives a prospect if the ATH can be repeated again later, I think it's better to buy now when the price is cheap than later when the price goes up again and we regret it because we hesitate to buy. |

Actually, we also see a lot of disappointment with Liverpool in football groups on social media. because before the start of this season, very many people were optimistic about Liverpool's performance. even in some voting many support liverpool. but when the season started it turned out that Liverpool didn't perform as well as people expected. So it's no wonder the disappointment is so pronounced. but I myself still see hope for Liverpool. because this season is still long.
Liverpool and Manchester City tight competition last season became a reference for many people to make again liverpool as favorite with Manchester City this season for won the title, but unfortunately Manchester City ran quite fast and left Liverpool far behind, many people thought that Liverpool performance had deteriorated after lost Mane and maybe that's right in my opinion, seeing Liverpool after the last 6 games, maybe for the championship competition they deserve to be crossed out but I'm sure they won't lose their place in the top 4 at the end of the season. |

Leading by one goal and had to lose one player before the first half ended. Sassuolo seems to be going through a tough game in the second half because they have to play with 10 men. So far they are playing well, but I doubt they will do the same when it comes to a shortage of players. Udinese will definitely take advantage of their players' advantage in the second half.
Playing at home actually Sassuolo managed to score in the first half, but Sassuolo failed to defend that the win it until the game was finished after their defender was shown a red card, lost one player of course made Sassuolo game start to deteriorate and it was clear that is could be used by Udinese very well, winning the number of players made udinese able to continue to press the sassoulo defense and they managed to score 3 goals and lock the win with a score of 1-3. |

It was a comfortable win for Real Madrid and at the same time extending their winning streak in their previous 5 matches. They can still keep their distance from their rivals until now who also got a win this week.
In another match Atletico Bilbao lead 0-3 over host Elche. Looks like the goals will continue to increase in the second half later.
Having a high motivation to win the top of the standings from Barcelona made Madrid play quite impressive in that match, even though they fell behind with a goal created by Muriqi but Madrid's players managed to respond by scoring a goal back by Valverde, Valverde goal in first half made the mentality and confidence of the players Madrid players improved in the second half and scored an additional 3 goals before the game ended, win with score 4-1 over Mallorca automatically sends Madrid back to the top of the standings with 15 points. |

If Liverpool keeps performing like this I don't think they club can bear to still allow Klopp be coach, they will look for alternatives, a new coach who can do the work better. I'm still hoping Klopp will have the solution to the present problem of Liverpool in a short time.
The defeat to Napoli caused a lot of rumors circulating about Klopp future, many assuming that Klopp will suffer the same fate as Tuchel this season after Liverpool poor run of results, but despite the rumors circulating, I think Liverpool still have full faith for Klopp so it seems impossible for Klopp to get sacked, so far Klopp has managed to make a lot of contributions to Liverpool so I think the management considered this before sacking Klopp, besides that the difficulty of getting a great coach of course made Liverpool have to think again if they wanted to sack Klopp. |

Normally they would have allocate a lot of time to think of the right transfer for this position. But they focused on signing defenders mainly while they needed a solid striker the most. They realized this very late and they had to act fast as a result. Aubameyang is still a good transfer of course but they had a lot of money to spend on a striker at the same time. If they had more time they could have made a bigger signing.
Yes, Chelsea too focused on building their defensive line, they forget they have no strong strikers. They are too late to sign Aubameyang, this player is exactly what they need since the first match of this season. I am sure Chelsea performance won't be so badly, and they maybe still in the top 4 on EPL table if Aubameyang played for Chelsea earlier. Chelsea scouts worked very poorly in the last transfer window. I think it's not wrong if Chelsea are too focused on defense, considering their weakness since being left by several defenders this season, but what you say is also true because as well as strengthening defense, Chelsea should also focus on making the attack line sharper, the purchase of Aubaneyang at the end of the close of the transfer market in my opinion as a panic buy because if chelsea moved more actively of course they could get a striker who was younger and better than aubameyang, but we should wait how much aubameyang can contribute to chelsea under their new coach this season. |

In the coming window we shall see if Chelsea still have interest in getting Ronaldo to wear the blue shirts. Ronaldo is aged now but I still have much faith in him and believe with the right environment and right energy around him he still has a season or two to perform and I also believe he will improve the squad and strengthen Chelsea's attack especially now that they have Aubameyang and Sterling in the team.
Chelsea already have Aubameyang and maybe interest in Ronaldo is just an rumors, Ronaldo currently does have a bad relationship with the Manchester coach but I don't think that can be an excuse for Ronaldo to betray to manchester with join a rival team, now Ronaldo has entered the final age of from his performance and career so that he will not try to get hate from Manchester fans because moving to a fellow England team, even if Ronaldo leaves Manchester of course he will prioritize joining a team outside of England later. |

Liverpool odd 1.50 at home is quite inviting I would say and Ajax despite playing very well in their home league and the Champions League also I think Liverpool needs to win this game at all costs and I am going to place a bet on them.Rarely I have seen Liverpool with 1.50 odds in a game where they play at home against an opponent of a weaker league compared to the Premier League,I know the Liverpool recent form is not the most brilliant of them but I think they will get a massive victory this time,kinda like that of Bournemouth.
Liverpool arent in form at the moment and that reflects in the odds provided. They drew 0-0 to Everton, who arent doing great themselves and lost 4-1 to Napoli in the Champions League. Last time Ajax and Liverpool met, the score was in favor of Liverpool in both meetings but was a marginal 1-0 wins. The defeat from Napoli indicates that Liverpool currently seems to be in a bad performance, the series of bad results obtained by Liverpool makes me quite doubtful if they can beat Ajax easily, the lack of creativity from Liverpool midfielders in the previous few matches makes Liverpool strikers like lost their sharpness, in the match against napoli it was seen that Salah and Firmino were not well supported by the midfielders so they didn't have enough chances to score goals, but I think there is a slight advantage for liverpool in the match against ajax later cause they play at anfield, because so far Liverpool players performance actually looks better and has high motivation when they play at Anfield. |
