I just hope big_daddy is going to forget making his picks...  

No way he would give us a freebie like that

Some nice games in this round. Mainly Barca-Dortmund and Real-PSG, both of which should have a few goals in it. Liverpool-Napoli would have been another one but Napoli is currently torn from the inside and I expect Liverpool to win this one easily.

Don't know whether to watch Real Madrid - Paris Saint-Germain or Juventus - Atlético Madrid tomorrow. Probably go for the Real game as I think it will be closer. Juve should win at home but I think PSG might grab the away win here. I'll definitely be watching the Barca V Dortmund match, but I'd also like to catch the Liverpool game. Might have to split screen it  .

How much larger is Tottenham's chances to reach the finals with Mou around?  Larger than say, Bayern and Atletico?

Thinking of doing another prop...

They'll very likely make it out of the group but not sure I'd back them to go that far out of it, but I guess it's the luck of the draw. It would be funny if Spurs went on to win the whole thing but I;m not sure that would be good for Mou's ego. Maybe we'll see another Spurs v Liverpool final  .

Really stressed about the Dinamo game tonight.. They really shot themselves in the leg against Shakhtar and Atalanta is not as bad as their results say.

It will be a tough night for Dinamo, Atalanta will give their all because they have all in their hands if City does not lose to Shakhtar (or Dinamo) which they probably won't.

[efialtis]

I made some "crazy" picks for tonights matches I can say and I hope we will see some surprising results. Also, Atalanta at home looking good vs Dinamo. Then - duno why - I smell Olympiakos to get a point vs Spurs even though they even suck in our domestic League lately... Well, we will see! Need to get some points though, @big_daddy is running!

I will bet on Dinamo to score, I'm just looking for the best odd to catch cause I'm finding only the 1.5 margin, and I'm looking for the 0.5
This match is a must watch match for all those who like to watch an offensive open football, and both teams has the imperative to win, it's difficult to make any prediction, but for the pool it will be on the guest side to win  



And, of course I will not skip this round   , but I think that the leadingboard could change tonight, I'm not so confident in my picks for tonight

You still have lead, eight points more than me in second place. We have only two rounds in the group stage and a chance to get closer to you. Some favourites have already been provided next stage, they do not need to play with the first team and it is possible that there will be surprises. After group games, we will have fewer games which will be much more predictable.
Therefore it is necessary that you play a bad round 

[Pmalek]

Probably go for the Real game as I think it will be closer. Juve should win at home but I think PSG might grab the away win here.

They should win but they do have some issues with injuries. Alex Sandro is out. They don't really have a suitable replacement for him on the left back. Danilo and De Sciglio can fill his role but that's not it. De Ligt is doubtful having dislocated his shoulder on Saturday. It is being reported that he will play but in what shape will he be? Ronaldo is not fully recovered but should still play. Atletico is a tough opponent.

Spurs vs LFC final with Mou and Klopp...?  Yes please.  The build up alone would def be entertaining.  Lol.

But really, I think Mou's more pragmatic approach is more suited for tourney football.  And with Tottenham's squad...  Hmmmm.

I think that final would be another boring one. The semi's were so good it was kinda inevitable the final would be anti-climactic. I mean, those semis were probably two of the greatest comebacks in Champion's League history (apart from the Liverpool final win way back when).

Probably go for the Real game as I think it will be closer. Juve should win at home but I think PSG might grab the away win here.

Ronaldo is not fully recovered but should still play. Atletico is a tough opponent.

If Ronaldo is out I definitely won't be watching it. I usually do a bit of research and watch some tipsters analysis vids on youtube before my Champions League picks because I'm not that familiar with half the teams, but haven't this week so don't know whether to stick to my guns or see what they're saying and make some last minute changes. I could be wildly off or get lucky. It seems a handful of teams have also already qualified so maybe that will effect their line-ups and some teams may save players for their domestic games.

F+++!

My 3 points on Galatasaray - Club Brugge ruined by the guests goal scored at '90+2  (I had the 1:0 prediction on the pool...)
Than, Brugge got 2 red cards...
Simply... cannot believe it

And that gave me full 3 points

Too many good games at the moment can't decide what to watch...Switching between the games but will probably settle on multicast. I have a program with screen divided in 4 parts, currently showing Dinamo, Madrid, Juve and City. Only problem, there isn't enough time for snacks and beer.

[big_daddy]

~ there isn't enough time for snacks and beer.

Please, find a moment for that, there should always be some space for beer and snacks  you have to enjoy

anyway, congrats for the 3 points, LTU_btc is the current leader of this round, you behind him
Will you catch me?  I hope not hehe

Oly 0:2 !!!!! Told you they can get the draw! 😂

[Indymoney]

first twenty minutes and kill me what a shit start for spurs.

[Naida_BR]

Oly 0:2 !!!!! Told you they can get the draw! 😂

Already 2-2. There is time for Tottenham to get the win in the game.
I think that mourinho is going to get the most out of this game in order to prove that he is special one. Not a bad result for him to win a match when he is behind with 2 goals.

[Hhampuz]

What a bad decision by the ref and var team in the real - psg match. Should have been a red card and penalty, ref waved off the push on marcelo in real time so no idea why he would want slow motion footage of that as it will always look worse than it actually is.

Oh well, let's see what these last 30mins will bring

What a bad decision by the ref and var team in the real - psg match.

Here is an exclusive photo that can explain the referee's decision .

Thanks to Varane/Courtois (and Navas). Paris made a little hold-up.

[examplens]

big_daddy, cryptofrka where is disappeared Dinamo Zagreb, which demolishes Atalanta in his first match in Zagreb? I expect much more from them after this game.
I did not expect from Bayern to play with full of power, something like Manchester City just to finish a job.

At the end 4:2 for Tottenham. What do you think, is it really Mourinho responsible for this comeback? They have already a good team selected by Poch, is it Mou enough to grow up his performance?

This was by far, the worst Dinamo performance this season. They can be happy it only ended 2:0. This way they still have better h2h with Atlanta, if that becomes important.

Won't even comment that VAR travesty in Real-PSG game, it ended with a draw which is more than PSG deserved tonight so all parties can go home happy and forget about this game.

well, I was sure that Dinamo will score one goal, I got a ticket with both to score... only this one I missed, the other 7 pics passed

I told you everyone that I have a bad feeling for this round, my points are only an Exact of difference
I have to be more accurate tomorrow with my predictions

Now I watch video of that moment. How it's not penalty?! Ok, maybe it's not red card foul, but c'mon... I can't understand how referee can make such decision after VAR review.
Speaking about Dinamo Zagreb, Shakhtar draw against City made their situation even more complicated. Now Dinamo will have to beat City and wait for Shakhtar loss against Atalanta. But they can blame only themselves for it. Bad match tonight, chocking against Shakhtar on injury time...
