I think that is a problem on the bookmakers part, I still think that they are the favorites going into this game. Not because Real is as great as they were last year, they are not that great, I can agree to that, but LFC is even worse.
If you think the bookie make a mistake and you think Real Madrid have higher chance to win, you should be happy because you will able to earn more money if you bet Real Madrid  Now the match against Osasuna is done, Real Madrid will for 2-0 and Liverpool against Everton have same result for 2-0 too. Looking at the match Real Madrid is more stronger than Liverpool because Everton done a lot mistakes, while Osasuna they're just show an average performance from mediocre club. No doubt I will bet Real Madrid and we will see what the outcome will be. I agree, Real definitely looks better, Valverde played an amazing game and I would expect him to have another great game like that against Liverpool as well. I know that it is not an easy task to beat Liverpool regularly, but this season things are looking a bit different. Real is nearly as good as last season, maybe a bit worse, but they can still win. Benzema is the only issue, he is always injured, him playing the way he played last year would have sealed the deal for them and get them that win, but he is always absent this year. I do not know if he is really injured or if it is something mentally wrong with him, like he is in depression or something, in both cases I hope he gets better, he is amazing player to watch. I think Benzema's performance days are over. He has been supporting Real Madrid for a long time and has played a huge role in the team. But now Benzema is old due to which he is facing various problems. |

Chelsea situation in the epl is catastrophic, and they lost their first premier league match against Dortmund in the EPL and im really excited for the second match because it will be the match of the season for Chelsea, the team have not choice if they want to save the season they must win this match and get yhe qualification otherwise it will be an early end of the season for them
the only problem for Chelsea is that they are always unable to turn the chances they get into goals. Chelsea even lost to Southampton in the Premier League. Even though Chelsea had more chances and also dominated the game. In the first leg against Dortmund, we can see that Chelsea was able to control the match quite well. But Chelsea is not good at converting an opportunity into a goal. That's the only problem that Graham Potter now has to fix. but I think the second leg will indeed be a more interesting match. Chelsea's performance is not very good at the moment. The coach of the team is not able to stabilize the team in any way. The future of the team will be bad if they perform like this. |

Firstly I can't trust Liverpool's performance this season. Liverpool is now a team in disarray. Compared to them, the Real Madrid team is much more stable. Ancelotti is also a very experienced coach. He knows very well what strategy is required to play on a platform like the Champions League. And so whatever the odds in this match, I'll bet Real Madrid to win. I believe Madrid will not make any mistakes in the first leg. they will win.
The atmosphere of the Champions League is clearly very different from the EPL. So from that, it could be that Liverpool, who are currently still inconsistent in terms of performance, but I hope that by facing Real Madrid both of them will have a large enough influence so that in this match they can motivate Liverpool's players to be able to keep up with Real Madrid. I personally would not bet, or maybe take the draw option in this big fight. Liverpool's performance in the Champions League is great. The coach of the team has trained the players very well and the players are able to perform well. Most of the matches they are dominating and ensuring victory. If they continue to play like this, they can do well in the Champions League. |

Last season Real Madrid became the best team in La Liga and also in the Champions League by winning titles in both competitions. Meanwhile, this season is starting to look a little different from last season through Real Madrid's performances so far, but for now Real Madrid isn't bad enough in the Champions League and also in La Liga, even though it's a little behind Barcelona. Because the time to rise like last season for Real Madrid is still very much now, so judging it for now is still not quite right in my opinion.
Real Madrid doesn't look to be the best team in Champions League nor it is the first in La Liga, yet it should not be underestimated especially that the players are aware of how hard to get La Liga title so they will give all their attentions to UCL. I think everyone remember how Real Madrid flipped the table on the head of every opponent thinking they were winning at the end of the games! I also think that Real Madrid is not a very good team in the Champions League this time. Other teams are far ahead of Real Madrid. Real Madrid can be said to be the best team in LaLiga. The Champions League is a hotly contested match-up right now, Real Madrid can go a long way but it would be foolish to put Real Madrid ahead of the title. |

Upamekano decided to level the teams' chances by removing himself in the 10th minute. I don't envy those who bet on a Bayern Munich win with odds of 1.4 or so. Strangely enough, the odds on a Bayern Munich win now are only 4. Although they will have to play with ten men for 80 minutes, and without Thomas Muller. Now Bayern Munich should hold out for 20 minutes, or better to the end of the half and not concede another goal to have at least a minimum chance of winning for Bayern Munich. If Borussia Mönchengladbach scores another goal, that's it, Bayern will not win for sure, a draw at most.
Bayern Munich's current match is going really well. The opposition managed to score a goal in 13 minutes. But Bayern Munich with 10 players managed to pay the goal in the 35th minute. However, as Bayern Munich are under pressure, they need to improve their defence. |

Bayern Munich is the strongest team in the Bundesliga. But this team is always weak against Gladbach. Bayern Munich has not won any of their last 5 matches against Gladbach. Munich has lost three matches and drawn two matches. And so one should not think that Munich will win easily in today's match. Gladbach is a relatively weak team but this is their home match. And Gladbach won 5-0 in their last home match against Munich. Today's match will also be competitive.
This time I believe that Bayern Munich will make a very different surprise than before and will try to win the match with Monchengladbach so that more different statistics are created. Because apart from Bayern Munich who must get full points to continue to be at the top of the Bundesliga standings, Bayern Munich also wants to prove itself by making a historical record that is more different than before with Monchengladbach. So this time I'm sure that Bayern Munich will win at home to Monchengladbach. Even though Bayern Munich is statistically far above Monchengladbach, it is true that Bayern Munich always has difficulties when facing this one team. They definitely want to improve their meeting record with Monchengladbach by winning. It will not be an easy game for Bayen Munich to steal victory at home to Monchengladbach at Borussia Park.
The Bayern Munich match which will take place today will also not be so easy for Bayern Munich because apart from Bayern Munich who will play away today. I think Monchengladbach's motivation and mentality to keep Bayern Munich from winning easily at their home ground is still very big so that Bayern Munich needs to fight for today's match by giving all of its abilities in order to win. Bayern Munich are now playing with 10 players after one player was red carded. However, as a Bayern Munich team, they will be able to perform well with ten players. However, Bayern Munich will have to play with a bit of caution. The opposition has great opportunities, if the opposition can exploit Munich's weakness, then the opposition can do well. |

If anything, I would dare to say that there is a chance that playing at home could impact negatively on the performance of a team, because the expectations placed over them, which could lead to stress and mistakes during the match.
It comes to mind the famous Germany Vs. Brazil during the 2014 world cup.
If I have time, tomorrow I would do some research and see if I can find some statistics about Playing at home.
Playing at home clearly gives you an advantage. Here are the world cup winners at home: 1930, Uruguay 1934, Italy 1966, England 1974, West Germany 1978, Argentina 1998, France And you can see that the best performance of each team is usually when they hosted the world cup. Well, for me, I don't think playing at home gives the team any advantage or disadvantage, if you disagree, then maybe you should mention some of the advantages you think football teams have when they play in their home. A good team with good players is already a good team, and they would play well no matter where they go, team that lacks good players will still fall behind even if the match is brought to them in their home, example is the previous world cup that just ended last year, hosted by Qatar, Qatar as a team where among the first teams to be disqualified from the world cup tournament, why didn't they play for longer since they were the host?. There are many examples when a country hosted the world cup, but it did not help them become the world champion in football. Brazil even hosted the World Cup twice, in 1950 and 2014, but that didn't help them become world champions. Neither Germany managed to become world champion in 2006 at the world cup in Germany, nor Italy in 1990 at the world cup in Italy. We have many other examples like Spain in the 1982 World Cup in Spain. The team that is the best will show it, regardless of where it plays, at home or away  Of course, some national teams became world champions at the world cups organized in their countries, but not only because of that, but also because they deserved it with their team quality. However, the 2022 World Cup host Qatar national team was not able to do well. As the host team, Qatar needed to secure at least some match wins. However, the Qatar national team has not been able to take itself to that level yet. |

Brentford to beat crystal palace because crystal palace has not been in good form for months. Brentford seem to be able to beat the bigger teams and I think they will at least get a result against Crystal Palace. I think Brentford will win 2-1. They have 1 of the best counter attacking teams in the Premier League
Brighton & Hove Albion to beat Fulham. Fulham are a relegation team and Brighton area top 10. I think it does not get any more clear then that and I think Brighton will find this game easy to win. 2-0.
Manchester City to beat Nottingham Forest. Manchester City are the champions and Nottingham Forest are recently promoted and probably going to go down this season or next season. I think they have surprised many people with their performances but I do not think that is sustainable and I do not think they will get a result from Manchester City. Manchester City 3-0.
Everton FC and Leeds United to draw. I think both teams are struggling this season and without Bamford Leeds would probably go down but Everton have not been any better. I think both teams will score and it will end 1-1.
Liverpool are too good for Newcastle United and I think they will win but because they have been poor in defense I think they will concede 1. I will be betting on a 2-1 victory.
In the match between Liverpool and Newcastle, Liverpool is more likely. Liverpool team is in good form, but expect to play the match in Newcastle with more care. However, Liverpool's Salah has a good chance if the opposition's defense can stop him. |

Osasuna is a more serious opponent for Real Madrid after a comfortable matchup against Elche. They had better be more careful with their defending especially. Osasuna are more productive in their home matches compared to the away ones. This is why Real Madrid shouldn't underestimate them here. I know how dominant they have been against Osasuna in away matches as well. But they still have weaknesses against smaller teams in the league these days.
This was why Barcelona were comfortable about having a big gap with them in the standings. I hope to see a clear victory by Real Madrid with a decent effort.
Indeed, Osasuna will play with great responsibility against Real Madrid. Because Real Madrid is a very strong opponent, Osasuna's defense will be very alert to stop Real Madrid's attack. Osasuna will want at least a draw with Real Madrid. |

Real Madrid squad list against Osasuna today without Karim Benzema in the name list due he need take rest and prepare for important match several days later against Liverpool on Champion League first leg of 16th round. There are not only Karim Benzema not bring by Carlo Ancelotti but also Toni Kroos not in the squad list and seems he will get regular place later against Liverpool. Real Madrid have ambition cut off 5 points left from Barcelona and play up coming next day against Cadiz, have potential with starting eleven against Osasuna little change because Real Madrid try with second composition and use their regular starting eleven in Champion League.  realmadrid twitterBenzema is in an unfit condition, for Toni Kroos it is reported that he has lost weight and also has reduced muscle mass. Maybe that was the reason why the two players were not brought by Ancelotti in the match against Osasuna later. What is certain is that Real Madrid must win this match if they do not want to be further behind from Barcelona. For the UCL match against Liverpool I think Ancelotti has prepared everything so they can appear with the main squad later. Benzema is one of Real Madrid's best players. Benzema has contributed a lot behind Real Madrid's achievements. But currently, Benzema is not able to support the team as before. But Benzema is a very good striker. But those days may not come again for this player. |

PSG like to get under pressure from their player self when lost or draw. The public only wants the winning and they don't want to know if the team lost, or draws, so if happens public will blame the player, and the players got pressured and want to leave the clubs. I think 5 points is still big, Marseille, Monaco and lens it will be difficult to pursue PSG, because performance between them almost the same.
Actually PSG in under pressure right now after three loss in last three games all competition from French Cup, Ligue 1 and last defeated from Bayern Munich in Champion League. The public have huge expectation for PSG exactly with Champion League after losing at first leg should win on second leg. For Ligue 1, PSG still confidence with 5 points behind Marseille and I don't think they will loss opportunity after eliminated from French Cup. Have chance make more than 5 points gap because next two games against Marseille and if can win in that match will make PSG more confidence on the top Ligue 1 standing position. PSG team is one of the best team in League One. I have seen this team play well only in League One but in other leagues the team is not able to perform very well. The PSG team has a lot of problems, after having big players in the team, what's the point if they can't do anything well? |

Until now there has been no opponent who has made it difficult for Napoli again after Napoli's defeat by Inter. Napoli also have a highly anticipated game in the Champions League. But before that, Napoli had the closest match in Serie A, namely the Sassuolo vs Napoli match.
Sassuolo actually had several matches with quite good results, namely in several previous matches Sassuolo managed to beat Milan with quite a lot of scores, namely 5-2. followed by beating Atalanta with a score of 1-0. but in the most recent match Sassuolo was held to a draw by Udinese with a score of 2-2. even though Sassuolo doesn't seem to be a dangerous threat to Napoli but there is always any possibility, so surprises can happen in this match. However, I still believe that Napoli will continue their winning record.
Napoli are unstoppable by continuing to win, and this week Sassuolo will try to stop the slick record that Napoli has created. I'm not sure that Sassuolo will be able to prevent Napoli from winning with their condition which cannot be said to be fine at the moment. In fact, I see that Napoli will comfortably beat them and come home with 3 points and add to their collection of points in the standings table. If I knew that Napoli will play full power I would bet a lot of money on them with the odd of 1.6 which is big considering their form no matter that they are playing away.The thing that stops me from betting on this game is the fact that Napoli is 15 or 16 points ahead the second place and next week they will be playing in the Champions league and they have the luxury to not give a damn about this game no matter the result and as such to put in place the second formation,so it is a tricky situation to bet on the Napoli game,in every option,both in goals,both teams to score and others,it is difficult this one. Napoli have prepared themselves well for their next match. Napoli team is playing much better than other teams. But for me, the best part of the Napoli team is their defense, they stopped the opposition's attack brilliantly. |

Milan had better win their next game which is against Monza away. Because their fixture is not very favourable these days. They are going to take on Atalanta and Fiorentina respectively after this game. We all see how vulnerable Milan have been in defense recently. Both of these two teams are big threats to Milan as a result. Especially Atalanta I can say.
The win over Tottenham might help Milan players gather themselves up maybe. They really need some improvement in their form in the Serie A to finish the season in top 4.
Surely he must win with Monza, if for some reason he doesn't do it (like a draw) then it becomes complicated and it is a sign of a real big problem in Milan's ranks. Certainly the performance of the goalkeeper is embarrassing. my 2 cents Monza is actually in great form. Every match they are able to perform brilliantly to ensure victory. Manja has secured victory in the previous matches as well, hope to secure victory in the next matches as well. |

Back in La Liga, Barcelona will host Cadiz for its La Liga campaign this season. They have been unbeaten in all competitions so far including the Europa League and Xavi and his players have been consistent and strong so far.
Entertaining Cadiz in the next match in La Liga, it is certain that Barcelona will win easily at Camp Nou. Xavi's good record this season continues where they have only lost once this season in La Liga from 21 matches. Targeting full points at Camp Nou over Cadiz this week could be Xavi's encouragement to keep the distance with Real Madrid, who defeated Elche 4-0 at the Santiago Bernabeu. One thing that should be taken into consideration in betting is that Cadiz have beaten Barcelona at Camp Nou with a score of 0-1 although on paper Barcelona can win. Barcelona and Real Madrid are performing incredibly well. Youngsters of both teams are able to do better. I personally want these two teams to meet in the final of Laliga. But Real Madrid have more chances. |

Barcelona have become a great team. The team's situation was not very stable after Xavi's addition to the team. But with Xavi's skill, the team's players have been able to create themselves brilliantly. |

True, both Erik ten hag and Xavi will definitely prepare the best strategy for the first leg match later, but again Barcelona will get the opportunity to host first and the support flowing from the Blaugranes will pump up the enthusiasm of the Barcelona players. I think Xavi has to anticipate Marcus Rashford's movements because in several Manchester United matches he is very consistent in scoring goals in every regular league match and does not rule out the possibility that he will score again against Barcelona later. IMO, the home-field advantage will be a significant influence in this match. The energy levels of the Barcelona players will undoubtedly be enhanced by the backing of the Blaugranas. To limit Marcus Rashford's goal-scoring talent, Xavi has his job cut out for him. Due to the fact that both coaches are planning their best methods, it is difficult to predict the outcome of this game. There will be a lot to watch when two talented teams meet! I am expecting nothing less than the best available players to be fielded by both teams when they go head to head in the Europa league play offs next week. With Manchester United in their best form in more than a year I'm expecting a competitive and interesting game. The match will certainly be competitive. No team will want to lose this match and be eliminated from the Europa League. Xavi will definitely want to win the Europa League title. On the other hand, since it is not possible for Manchester United to win the Premier League title now. So their aim now is to win the Europa League title. We will get a chance to enjoy a very competitive match. The Europa is now gaining more momentum than the Champions league because this game between Manchester United and Barcelona. Because both team are doing well and everyone want to watch them play each other. It will be interesting week, after PSG vs Bayern Munich crash in the Champions league than we shall witness another Gian game in the Europa. The Europa League games will be more competitive than the champions league It comprises of big clubs like Ajax, Man United, Barcelona, Roma and Juventus Other big name's too so it is the reason one can help bit watch the Europa League very well too I agree with you. There are several renowned teams in the Europa League this year. And the teams are in pretty good form right now. Manchester United, Arsenal, Barcelona and Roma are all in very strong positions right now. Also the teams are almost equally strong. And so the matches are expected to be very competitive. However, I consider either Barcelona or Arsenal as favorites to win the Europa League this season. Indeed, every match in the Europa League will now be highly competitive. Manchester United and Barcelona have a great match ahead. I will put Barcelona ahead in that match, because Barcelona is having one of the best performances in La-Liga. On the other hand, I don't see any proper balance in Manchester United team. But I cannot predict which team will win this match. |

Celta Vigo 0 - 0 Atletico Madrid Match just and Joseph Aidoo number 15 and Gabriel Veiga number 24 both in CELTA VIGO team has gotten Yellow card, Atletico Madrid is even attacking them (Celta Vigo) more. I am also predicting on this game that Atletico Madrid will win the game with 1-0. The structure or the lineup of Atletico Madrid is nice and they are playing well. Atletico Madrid's chances of winning this match do look higher, but Celta Vigo also put up some resistance in this first half. In the second half I think Atletico Madrid should improve some of the touches that didn't seem to work in the first half. The coach can refresh their game so that it is tidier and more organized in carrying out attacks from below. Let's see what Atletico Madrid can do in the second half later. Atletico Madrid was very lucky today. They scored in the 89th minute and won. I wouldn't say that Atletico Madrid performed very well. Celta Vigo is not a very strong team but they performed well enough in this match. However, the match was very important for Atlético Madrid to get 3 points from this match. Otherwise, it would have been difficult for Atletico Madrid to stay in the top four of the points table. Atletico Madrid are very lucky in today's match. Because after playing the whole match they were not able to score any goals, just then one of the players of the team, Memphis Depay, managed to score a goal in the 89th minute. As a result, Atlético Madrid got a great victory that the team desperately needed. |

AC Milan - Spurs seem to be winning a pretty boring match. Judging by the current performances of both teams, I think Spurs are favorites to continue. I'm not saying they win this game easily, but a draw would also be a good starting point as they can finish the job against Milan later in England. I don't know what is going on with Milan at the moment, but the team is a long way from the level they managed to reach last year. And all eyes are on PSG - Bayern Munich. Both teams are not in the best shape and if Mbappe does not participate, PSG will have to watch out that it does not run into a big defeat. That could also be possible and then the return in Munich is just a formality.
The match between Tottenham and AC Milan will be great. However AC Milan is currently performing fairly well, there is a balance between the teams. But the condition of Tottenham is very bad, Tottenham was defeated by a huge margin of 4-1 goals in the previous match. So if AC Milan doesn't miss any chance, something great can be expected. |

It will be really difficult for PSG without Messi, Mbappe in the team against Bayern Munich. Because they lost the previous match of PSG with a big margin of 3-1. Where Neymar could not do anything.
PSG lost too many points in the league after the world cup. Bayern Munich went through a similar process but they managed to become a winning team again. PSG seems to me to be a better team in terms of squad quality, but Bayern Munich are better than them in terms of form in their last match. It will be a bit of an assertive statement, but Bayern Munich can beat PSG away and go to the next round from the first match. I think Bayern Munich are better than PSG in terms of defense and attack. There is no balance in the PSG team. Meanwhile, Messi and Mbappe are injured. Neymar is not able to do anything great for the team. So as far as possible I think PSG will lose the Bayern Munich match as well. The coach of the team needs to think something new for the team. |

PSG odds @2.9 on ML while Bayern is @2.3. The latter seems pretty decent considering Mbappe is likely be out on that match so I'm taking that. That's probably one of the safer bets for round of 16. Line for Milan vs Hotpurs are almost identical and decent too but I have no idea which team to go for. Anyone fancy a BTTS or total goals?
PSG's attack will be weakened if Mbappe is absent in this match. But the chemistry between Messi and Neymar is very good. If Messi and Neymar get enough support from the midfield players, these two players can lead PSG to victory. On the other hand, Bayern Munich is in very good form. Their performance in the last few matches has been excellent. However, betting on this match is very risky. I will bet after seeing the squads of both teams in this match. You are right that PSG's attack is very weak without Mbappe. With Mbappe in the XI, attacks are quick and opposition defenses struggle to contain Mbappe. In view of which PSG's victory becomes easy to ensure. |
