⚽UEFA Champions League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 winner - Real Madrid!

[savetheFORUM]

The match between Real Madrid vs Chelsea will be the most interesting match in this round. It is because both teams almost have the same strength or have almost the same players' quality in each line. That's why we will be difficult to predict the result of this match. I assume both teams have the same chances to win, Real Madrid 50% and Chelsea 50%.

Sure, if there are some key players of Real Madrid injured, it will be a big problem. Especially for Benzema, this man must play in this match because Real Madrid relies on him to score. If Benzema is injured, I bet Chelsea to win and qualify to the next round.

No doubt this is going to be the most interesting match of this round with both teams have few very exciting players well experience in this competition, but Real Madrid is having some better performance, and they are improving their quality for end of this season and Chelsea is fighting hard in Premier League with losing top slots and now trying their best for staying at third spot is not good for them.

With this all now we have to wait for some more days as Benzema is surely key player and mostly have some injuries on crucial matches, hopefully now we will not have this case after few days we are going to International matches break, and then we are expecting very good competition for these round matches here in Champions League.

I'm just not so sure about the Chelsea vs Real Madrid match. I feel like the match can go either way. And that is the most interesting match also.
I think Real Madrid has the advantage if they don't face any injuries. By no means I am saying that Chelsea is a bad team or any less than Real Madrid, but you know, they have the additional pressure of thinking about the English Premier League.

This is where the Champions League becomes more interesting. I won't miss watching the match. Both teams are probably strong teams. But, Chelsea will indeed have an edge over Madrid, if their players have injuries. Players like Benzema is a key player in Madrid, and the team hardly wins matches without him. I hope he wont be injured before the match, because I will like to see him on the field against the previous winner of the Champions League. Also, the match will be tough, but am quite sure a winning will probably be produced at the end.

In fact, Benzema single-handedly caused Madrid to knock out PSG last week. Making a hat-trick against PSG in 20 minutes shows how good you are. If they hadn't had Benzema, PSG would have just moved on to the next round. Chelsea don't have a player like Benzema. Chelsea do have a solid team with decent football players, but Modric and Benzema are exceptional. I like Benzema better than Werner from Chelsea. Much more talented.

Benzema's performance was indeed very good in this match but on the other hand this does not mean only Benzema.
During the 2nd leg some time ago I saw that the players were more able to play freely unlike in the first leg and it was thanks to their collaboration and good performance that made them progress.
Benzema is one of Madrid's best players at the moment but I don't think it's just because of Benzema because all the players on the pitch contribute equally.

Chelsea - Real Madrid draw is a really close one I believe. Real Madrid seem to be much more serious for the title this year. And they have proved it by eliminating PSG already I believe. PSG were a huge target to eliminate for them. But Chelsea shouldn't be seen as an easier target. Because it shouldn't be forgotten that they were the champions of last season. Real Madrid should get at least a draw in the first leg to have a bigger chance. They would play much stronger in Santiago Bernabeu after that.

[Yogee]

Many have dismissed the chances of smaller or less popular clubs to reach the semi-finals since most of them were drawn against the top clubs in europe. I still would love to see more surprises and teams like Atletico Madrid could pull it off. Imagine bringing down two Manchester clubs in one season hehe.

[Coyster]

Manchester City v Athletico Madrid is definitely a game to look forward to, i think this should be the first time this two sides meet, and they both play entirely different brands of football, while City is a side solely concerned with attack and never sitting back, Athletico are the antithesis of Manchester City as they always prefer to sit back, soak up pressure, and try to score a goal or two on the counter. I expect City to dominate this game in terms of ball possession and controlling the game, but we still have to be very weary of Athletico madrid on the break cause they have quality players that can cause a lot of problems, we saw them do it to Liverpool some seasons ago, though i am pretty sure that would not repeat itself in this scenario.

[baeva]

I don't understand why everyone as one is screaming that Real Madrid will win the match against Chesley... Does everyone think the English club are bad enough to face the Spaniards? Totally disagree, for me the priority is more on the London team than on Real Madrid, even though Real Madrid are in great form at the moment. The priority is for Chelsea to make it to the final at all

Why are you so surprised? Do you think Real Madrid is a small club? Don't forget that Real Madrid is an experienced club to win UCL trophy and they can reach this round by beating a strong team like PSG. So, it is very understandable if many people think Real Madrid is the favorite team to beat Chelsea. Real Madrid also has Benzema who performed amazingly during this season and he even could make a hat-rick in the last match in UCL. Normal people must consider this as the reason to support Real Madrid, bro.  

Is Chelsea a small club?). They also took the Champions League trophy, albeit only twice, but they are clearly not a weak club. And I wouldn't rely on one player (in this case you mentioned Benzema). Yes, there are many players besides him who will pull the club to victory, but don't get hung up on him
In my opinion, these clubs are both strong, but I have a feeling Chelsea have a better chance.

In fact, Benzema single-handedly caused Madrid to knock out PSG last week. Making a hat-trick against PSG in 20 minutes shows how good you are. If they hadn't had Benzema, PSG would have just moved on to the next round.

However, Benzema cannot do it alone. Without assists from 2 creative midfielders of Real Madrid (Kross and Modric) and wingers (Vinicius and Asensio), Benzema will be difficult to score. I think all players of Real Madrid have contributed to winning the match against PSG. Even Benzema can make a hattrick, Real Madrid will be defeated if they have weak defenders. So, we also need to appreciate how good the performance of Real Madrid defense line is, nowadays.

All players do contribute according to their respective portions it's just that no matter how good the defenders and midfielders are without scoring goals they will never be highlighted in this case Benzema gets it not all strikers can make a hat trick especially in a super big match like this only great players can do it. Benzema has always been known as a savior in crucial matches that's one of the reasons he was never sold.

[EdenHazard]

Just as imagined, teams with the possibly best chance to win, ended up not facing each other all that much. Maybe Madrid vs Chelsea could be a bit of a trouble but I still see Madrid as the team leading La Liga and beat PSG to get here so that should be normally not that hard for them. All in all I agree that the semi-finals should be Madrid, lfc, City, Munich.

Those four teams are the best teams left and I believe there is a good chance for that to happen. After the semi-finals it is basically anyone's game and there won't be any guess on who would win. Any of these four teams could win. The real money in gambling lies with knowing which one of these four teams may end up not going to semi-finals.

This is what amateurs said ..

When chelsea won the champions league last season , counting on the previous matches and recent form isn't the only thing to consider.
Chelsea did it twice , when the entire world thing that it is bayern munich clearly the one who win the title but everyone on the globe was wrong , chelsea win it unexpectedly.
So do when everyone thinks that manchester city are a clear winner and yet everyone was wrong again.
This time i believe something unexpected would happened , benfica , villareal and atletico madrid could surprise everyone around the globe for sure!

This is still unpredictable. Now, Benzema is still experiencing calf injury. But I think that he will be okay when doing a match against Chelsea. That is why He will not be in the lineup of El Classico this week, also to prepare for a bigger match in UCL
I personally like Real Madrid more than Chelsea and I will support Real Madrid. But, I also admit that Chelsea is not an easy opponent to defeat. There needs high and compact performance by all lines up of Madrid. I think this match will be very interesting.

All players do contribute according to their respective portions it's just that no matter how good the defenders and midfielders are without scoring goals they will never be highlighted.

I agree, that is why this is a team, not an individual match. Although a very professional and excellent player will not be able to play very well if he doesn't get any support and also compactness from other lineups. They must play as a team optimally, maximizing all lineups optimally to score goals and to defense in order to not got any goals from the opponents

Real Madrid has won the Champions League the most of all in recent years. They didn't have that many other players except for Ronaldo, did they? Admittedly, Ronaldo was unique, but Modric was already there then. Real is a team that can also win the Champions League this season. If you can beat PSG, then you must be able to beat Chelsea and then you must have a good day against a team like Bayern. We will probably see a lot of spectacle in the semi-finals. Chelsea are good, but not so good that they will win the Champions League again. Far too erratic.

[bhooscream]

If we look at the history of the two teams, it is very natural that many people choose Real Madrid over Chelsea. Real Madrid has won 13 trophies,
while Chelsea only won 2 trophies. From this we already know that Real Madrid is much more experienced.

That's true. According to the history of the numbers of UCL titles won by each team, Real Madrid is clearly superior to Chelsea. There is no doubt if Real Madrid is the favorite team in UCL, everyone knows Real Madrid has proven it many times.  

Is Chelsea a small club?). They also took the Champions League trophy, albeit only twice, but they are clearly not a weak club.

Who said Chelsea is a small club?  
I know Chelsea won 2 UCL titles. They are clearly a strong club. But if we compared it with Real Madrid, I can say confidently that Real Madrid is still better.

I have a feeling Chelsea have a better chance.

Don't believe your feeling. I am worried you will regret it.
If you bet some funds for Chelsea winning, better to think again before placing it.

I personally also believe that Real Madrid has the potential to win the Champions League this season but there is one strong candidate that Real Madrid must beat this season for the Champions League, namely Bayern Munich.
Because beating Chelsea this season may not be too hard for Real Madrid, but against Bayern Munich, I think it will be much harder to beat even if you can.

Everyone wants to see a surprise and wants to see an unseeded team reach the final and beat a big team, but it is very difficult to beat a big team like Manchester city, even Benfica will find it difficult to face liferpol, but Chelsea's chances of beating Real Madrid are very difficult. "Because Real Madrid play very consistently, I really hope that the three representatives from England can qualify for the semifinals.

At the moment, Benzema is the most important player in the Real Madrid team. And I think it would be almost impossible for Real Madrid to win against any big team if Benzema is injured. Because the team depends a lot on Benzema. Even if he does not score a goal, the players are mentally stress-free even if he is in the team. As a result, the performance of the players is better.

Although Chelsea is in trouble, because their boss is not allowed to manage Chelsea club anymore, but I don't believe that Real Madrid can beat Chelsea easily, even though Real Madrid is a club that has won many champions league titles. but I am still optimistic that representatives from England can beat Real Madrid, I am optimistic that the three representatives from England will be able to advance to the semi-finals. I also believe that this season's Champions League trophy will be brought home by representatives from England. Perhaps the toughest opponents facing representatives from England are Bayern Munich and Real Madrid.

Chelsea met Real Madrid in the quarter-finals, I will side with Real Madrid, although last season Chelsea beat the Real Madrid team and they also managed to lift the UCL trophy, but this season the game played by Chelsea is much worse than last season and If we look at the league Their EPL does not play consistently so that the difference in points in the standings with ManCity and MU is getting further, but this match is also not easy for Real Madrid to win, maybe they won by a narrow score. because Chelsea will certainly give the best possible resistance to his opponent.

I am of course very much in favor of Chelsea, even though Chelsea are not playing well in their domestic league. in the league they are playing pretty well. The reason that makes me believe Chelsea will come out victorious is the existence of Kante. Kante was able to turn off the Madrid midfielder. Like last season, we saw Madrid being defeated by Chelsea because of the extraordinary influence of Kante's game, even to the Champions League champion who was always Kante's man of the match.

Although the previous year Chelsea won the Champions League trophy, this year Chelsea is not necessarily repeating the same thing. Moreover,
Real Madrid has improved its performance this season, Real Madrid this season in La Liga has managed to become the top position at the moment
and it is likely that they will win the La Liga trophy this season. Likewise, Real Madrid's appearance was quite stunning in the Champions League
by getting rid of PSG, which PSG this season has a very strong squad. So I can understand why you support Real Madrid more than Chelsea,
I also think that Real Madrid is more worthy to qualify for the semifinals. But Chelsea are not an easy team to beat, although Chelsea performance
has decreased slightly compared to the previous season, Chelsea still has a strong squad and will try to beat Real Madrid. So from the quarter-finals
only the Chelsea vs Real Madrid match whose results are actually difficult to predict, because both teams have the same quality of players.
Although Real Madrid will beat Chelsea and knock Chelsea out it won't be on a big aggregate, or it could even go to a penalty shootout to determine
the winner.
