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

I also think so, a team as big as Liverpool won't have much effect on home or away matches. I think with the quality that Liverpool have it is very possible for them to be able to win the game in the first and also the away game in the second leg.

I think so too, so I just really regretted Villarreal this season because they had to play against a tough club again this season in order to qualify for the final.
Although in the previous game Villarreal played very well, it does not mean it will be easy against Liverpool this season.

I was supporting Real Madrid against Manchester City to get at least a draw last night. But they were able to make do with a loss by one goal at the end. But their performance was still great against this much dominant Manchester City. I wasn't expecting such game first of all. We watched seven goals and each one of them was delightful to watch too. Manchester City got ahead by two goals three times in the game but Real Madrid dropped the goal difference to one every time. It must be really frustrating for Guardiola and I wonder how the second leg will be.

Predictably, Liverpool will win. I feel confident that liverpool's quality is far above villareal. It's just that Liverpol must be wary of Villareal's counterattack. In addition, Liverpool must be able to make a lot of goals and should not be conceded. If that happens then Leg 2 of course Liverpool will feel more comfortable to compete. Of course, the host factor will affect the player's mentality. I don't believe the away game will be easier for Liverpool in the second leg.

Vilalareal should not be underestimated, even though Villarreal are not the favorite team to step into the last four of the Champions League. However, the fact is that Villareal can beat the big teams in the knockout stages. Before Munich, Villarreal also defeated Juventus in the round of 16.
Villareal is likely to have a sense of optimism and confidence. Moreover, they managed to beat Getafe and Valencia in the Spanish League after securing a ticket to the Champions League semifinals.

yes, Liverpool can't underestimate Villareal. Everyone knows Villarreal is a tough team since being coached by Unai Emery, they are very dangerous especially on the counter-attack and a player like Danjuma is a threat. Villareal will definitely play a defensive game and try to frustrate Liverpool. but I'm pretty sure Liverpool will win the game later.

Liverpool vs Villareal, will it end with hope like my bet on Man City yesterday. Because Villareal would basically be unpredictable which made me take the bet for Liverpool. Maybe this will be a slightly dubious bet because Villareal's performance so far in the Champions League is truly unpredictable. I wish Liverpool all the best and don't waste this opportunity to take a safe position early.

Villarreal is performing good at this time but Liverpool is always favorite if we compare between Liverpool and Villarreal. I believe that Liverpool will not miss the opportunity to take advantage from their home match. There is a big chance for Liverpool to win the match against Villarreal.

Liverpool must have learned wise lessons from Villareal's matches against Bayern Munich and against Juventus. They really put them to the test for a few phases of the match. You could compare Liverpool with Bayern Munich. Juventus can perform and play very poorly, we have seen that a few times in Serie A. But in the Champions League, Villareal also rises above itself, it seems. Liverpool are expected to win but home or away may not matter much to Villareal now.

Seeing from Real Madrid's game, I highlighted their defense which was easily penetrated by Manchester City strikers, even 2 goals from Manchester City occurred in the early minutes, this became their problem in this first leg match. Not only that, they seemed to allow Manchester City players to freely in their defense area. In the second leg they have to fix this, otherwise the same thing might happen again.

Villareal is the biggest surprise in Champions League and they have nothing to lose after all. Furthermore, with all surprise they made so far, nobody can under estimate Villareal. They can make another surprise in semi final against Liverpool because we know Champions League especially in knock out rounds, contains space and chance for surprise.

In history, we see some small clubs participate in final matches like Porto, Monaco and more. It does not usually happen but sometimes we can witness it. Liverpool have enough strength and experience there to beat Villareal but it only works if they will play with their best and won't make mistakes which might be taken by Villareal.

Well, we can compare it with Villareal very high motivation to make their history in the Champions League. So it is possible that Villareal will be a balanced opponent. Mexico=un we won't doubt Liverpool in this. Their formation was really always tight in terms of defense. And what is more superior is when Liverpool makes a comeback very quickly.

The shocking part in Real Madrid defence was the two early goals they conceded. This cannot happen at this level of football. It isnt a problem if you receive a goal from a team like Man City but you need to hold on a little longer at start of each half. We had also an amazing match between these two teams and probobly one of the best matches of the season. Cant wait to see the second leg but i expect a lot less goals in it.

Villarreal's defense has been very good in their last few appearances against big teams in the UCL stage and also Liverpool's attacking line is also very productive in scoring goals. these two things are different, of course it will be very interesting to see who will be able to bring out his attractive appearance.
for a match that will be difficult it will of course happen because this is a Champions League Semi-final match where every team that competes will be fully focused and will give all their abilities, even though Liverpool are very superior but anything is still possible to happen because Villarreal are in full confidence high after they were able to beat Bayern and qualify for the semifinals with a surprise.

Manchester City failed to hold on to their goal lead by more than Real Madrid last night, but that doesn't mean they're playing badly. I have to say that Real Madrid was certainly lucky with Benzema's penalty (3rd Madrid goal) because after that there were no more goals during the match.

I am still very optimistic that Manchester City will be able to beat Real Madrid in the second leg even though they are only 1 goal ahead in the first leg. Manchester City just need to end the second leg with a draw and I don't think they will repeat the other two failures (PSG and Chelsea) that failed to qualify for Real Madrid. So Manchester City to the final is my hope so far.

Liverpool must be careful when facing Villarreal later in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League. Liverpool is considered a premier league club that will enter the final round because their journey in Europe's highest competition is very promising, but Villareal can make that guess disappear if Liverpool are not careful.
After stepping into the semifinals, the Villareal coach carried out a mission to reach the final round.

I don't think there's any reason for Liverpool to underestimate Villarreal, moreover, this is the semifinals. So whoever the enemy is, Liverpool will surely face it with all their might. Villarreal's achievement in La Liga is not too fantastic, but their performance in the Champions League is quite good. I think they were able to reach the Semifinals not only by luck because they managed to beat Man United and Bayern Munich.

In this first leg, Liverpool will still be the favourites because when it's viewed from the composition of players and team performance, Liverpool is still superior to Villarreal plus Liverpool will play at home.

Villarreal has shown a good performance in the last 5 matches, but when compared to Liverpool, Villarreal will still lose to Liverpool based on some statistical facts from the last 5 matches, including the fact that Liverpool have only lost 1 of their last 33 home matches, so I predict that Liverpool will not add to the defeat in the home game which will take place at the Anfield stadium.

from any consideration, Liverpool will remain the favorite. the bookie makes better Liverpool Odds. many predictions Liverpool can win easily. Villarreal is not so good in La Liga, not many would bet on their win.
but looking at the result with Munich, we certainly have to learn not to focus too much on statistics. there is a possibility that the difficulties experienced by Munich when facing Villarreal will also be experienced by Liverpool. because in the field there will always be a team that gives a surprise.

The consistency of the two teams in the domestic league is very different, Liverpool are struggling to catch the throne from Manchester City, while Villarreal are stranded in 7th position in La Liga. Of course Liverpool are seeded, they are very strong at home and are consistent every game. But Liverpool must not consider Villarreal as a weak team, as long as Unai Emery is in control of the coach seat, Villarreal has become a giant killer. Villarreal had to fight hard to reach the semifinals, lastly Unai Emery's troops managed to knock Bayern Munich out of the Champions League stage.
Liverpool could be a victim of Villarreal if they don't perform well, they must perform much better at Anfield, because in the previous two matches, Liverpool were beaten by Inter Milan 0-1 and held to a draw by Benfica 3-3. Villarreal could have scored at Anfield if Liverpool's defense played open like they were held to by Benfica.

We'll see later we will see a surprise from Villareal even many people take this for granted but I can't ignore this, however Villareal have made it difficult for Bayern Munich twice in the quarter-finals, I expect a match like yesterday that was more exciting to watch.
Liverpool do have the ability above, but in the Champions League it will be different they will be like aggressive that is never controlled.

I think Villareal deserves to be able to win if they continue to show a performance that is still improving. There's nothing wrong with betting, especially if the odds are quite high, it's worth it. I will not doubt the potential of Villareal, even though many favor Liverpool in this match. In this case, Villareal has the ideal opportunity to show that they have quality players to match Liverpool.

Although Villareal had beaten Juventus and Bayern, but I have to say Liverpool is different and I dont think there is no chance for Villareal to win today in Anfield. 
Buf if you think that Villareal will continue to make surprise, you should bet on them with quite high odds.
I do not dare to bet on Villareal but maybe it is worth enough to bet few bucks on them just in case a miracle happen again.
Average odds for Villareal to win the match is around 9.5

I would also like Villarreal to win, they are a nice surprise this season, but the chances are slim! Liverpool's attacking style is well known and I think it will be the same tonight! Did you see this:

The Villarreal manager, Unai Emery, insists that, having beaten two giants en route to the Champions League semi-final, his team no longer have the element of surprise to help see them through.

Unai Emery is a great strategist, I believe he has something ready for tonight, but will it work on the field against Liverpool we will see!
