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

[Bttzed03]

Odds for RB Leipzig vs. Man United do or die match are currently both at 2.59 (Bitsler). I was expecting the home team to be the slight favorite given that they are playing on their turf and because of their excellent performance against Bayern Munich last night. Man United's second half magic probably won't work against a tougher team in RBL.

It's still two days before the match but what's your take on this? Man U only needed to draw while RBL must win to get to round of 16.

It is strange that Atletico is rather weak in the Champions League. If in LaLiga Atletico scored 21 and conceded only 2 goals, then in the Champions League they conceded 8 and scored only 5. An openly weak game against Lokomotiv gives Salzburg chances. But I hope that Atletico Madrid will still win this match.

Milan did yet another good job yesterday. Sampdoria was totally crushed by the attack of the milanese team. With or without Ibrahimovic they are very strong, but they have to be careful not to fall into the Ibra addiction, given the level of the teams in the ranking.

It is not that strange. In the Champions League we still have teams totally on another level, with players who are basically unbeatable. I think they should wake up if they don't want to end up cut off from the league table. I hope that in the coming weeks they are going to play better than this.

Uhmm and this is connected to the Champions League how? Both teams aren't even in the UCL, Sampdoria isn't competing internationally while Milan is playing in Europa League. Regular Italian matches should be posted in the Serie A discussion thread since only matches or teams that are in Champions League should be posted here. Nevertheless if AC Milan will continue to surprise people with their performance I think they will qualify for the next UCL in next season because they are really shocking everyone even their own fans.

It is hard to explain atletico woes in the champions league; their group was inded a strong one; but failure to beat Locomotiv (which i believe are the weakest team) home and away (6 solid points) is one of the reasons why Diego simeone team is presently struggling. I believe a win away at Salzburg or a draw should take Atletico to the next round

You're right, I apologize. Anyway, it's just to say that the success that Milan is having this year is absurd. (I confused the thread with the other one, I just woke up 😅).  In comparison Juventus is not playing as well as it did in the past. From the match against Barcelona I do not know what to expect, we'll see tomorrow.

Good luck for your bet, dinamo kiev it's a tough match too in the last battle they ended in a draw and there was even a red card/envelopes hovering for kiev. maybe kiev will throw in his emotion and win the game but often get red card/envelopes I'm afraid it will happen at this game.

Tomorrow we will see if Dinamo Kiev give me victory or not
in the end I only bet 2 euros, it's just for fun (with the hope of winning of course)

I really hope to enjoy a good match tomorrow (I'm talking about Barcelona - Juventus of course)

[Altryist]

Dynamo Kyiv totally dominated during the first match with Ferencvaros leading 2-0 after the fisrt half and only shaky ending let Ferencvaros to score the equalizer. the draw 0-0 or 1-1 will be enough for the ukrainian team to take the 3rd place so Ferencvaros should attack and Dynamo Kyiv is good on the counter-attacks.

Both teams have a good chance to advance to the next round of the Europa League, and therefore the game can be ceraful. Dynamo Kiev is playing better at home, I think that might help. Dynamo had to win in the first match, but at the end of the match something went wrong. I hope Dynamo will win this match.

If Real Madrid lose their toughest three matches, they will most likely be eliminated from LaLiga and the most difficult to deal with will be Sevilla this weekend and Atletico madrid next week.
But I believe Zinedine Zidane is a great coach who is respected and supported by his team, so whatever decision is made and which player is chosen is the best for Real Madrid.

Real Madrid should beware, but in Zinedine Zidane you can depend upon him. The couch is not tired but the players does so they should work on it. Zidane is far better, he won 3 consecutive UCL trophies. Half squad of Real Madrid out, Madrid should get new talents with new format of playing.

Real Madrid have to win last match when faced with Borussia Mönchengladbach if wanna qualify on the next stage, if Madrid failed to get three points maybe Inter and Borussia Mönchengladbach will go on to the next stage if Inter Milan success defeat Sakhtar Donesk. I think Zidane have prepare good squad for last match because until now no one club have pass to the next stage because they have little different points from Madrid, Inter, Sakhtar and Borussia Mönchengladbach.

Gladbach scored 8 points. They will only be able to go to the second round if they draw the match against Real. On the other hand, Real Madrid must win the match. If they draw. Then the match of Inter Milan vs Shakhtar's match must be a draw. Otherwise, Inter Milan will have to win. All the teams in this group are playing well. So it is difficult to guess which team will win.

RB Leipzig vs Manchester United this match is at most importance for both teams and it's going to be a great battle as both sides will go for some points in this clash. I believe Manchester United is more experienced in these types of games and they should pick up at least a point which will guarantee them getting to the next stage. While Leipzig will need RB to attack from the beginning, and United mission will be to search for chances to punish any Leipzig mistake. So it's best to go with Manchester United AH +0 with odds about 2.15.

Lazio - Brugge is do or die game. I'm backing Lazio to win.
Leipzig - MU is another big value game. Personally, I wouldn't be against to see MU going to Europa league.
Barcelona - Juventus is meaningless game in general. But it's worth to watch because of Messi and Ronaldo playing against each other. Who knows, maybe it's of last times when they will faceveach other on the pitch.
Dynamo - Ferencvaros - direct clash for Europa league spot. I'm backing Dynamo, IMO they're slightly better.

Tonight I have one game Im really exciting on and I will be betting on.
Im going for Leipzig DNB, as I don’t see Leipzig losing this game tbh. It wont be easy, but it should be a good game that’s for sure. I liked Leipzigs Gameplay against Bayern and we should see the same fight in this game

PSG has 99% chance to win and move to the round of 16.

What are the odds of Man United and RB Leipzig draw? It's pretty low but that's what I think MU is going for. The problem is they don't have a solid defense to ward of RBL attacks since they've conceded goals in their previous matches. MU will advance while RBL will be in Europa League if this happens. Both may even qualify in the rare chance that PSG loses.

Leipzig 2.30
X 3.8
ManU 2.80

ManU will concede goals, this will be a great match. ManU might try to park the bus to keep the goal clean, but Leipzig will be putting some major pressure and should be in attack mode in an aggresive way, looking to score early and win this game.
The over option would also be a good option in my opinion, but I can also see ManU not attacking but the concentration will be on the defensive side.

[ampere]

Leizpis vs Manchester United is the biggest tie for tonight; with people having different several predictions coming from every angle. People seem to have forgotten that Manchester united restricted leizpig to just 2 shots on target. If Leizpig gets shut out by manchester united tonight once again; then it could be more than 5 goals drubbing in favor of Manchester United.

Alot of people are rooting for Psg to have a corresponding win; this is something i doubt; psg will struggle tonight.
Another big time tonight is Real Madrid vs Borussia Moenchengladbach; Zidane needs nothing but a win at home at the Bernebeu.

[Naida_BR]

Barcelona vs Juventus is the most interesting match of tonight's fixture. We are going to see again the two best players in the world right now on the same pitch. Ronaldo has shown that he is not very passionate in such games. On the other hand, Messi shows his leadership and most of the times he also scores goals.
Barcelona is going to have some serious absences Fati, Pique, Roberto, Dembele and Umtiti will be out. It is like they are going to have troubles on the defensive part.
i believe that Juventus is worth betting for getting the win as @3,40 is a pretty decent and value for money odd.

My bad I didn't mean odds from bookies.

People seem to have forgotten that Manchester united restricted leizpig to just 2 shots on target. If Leizpig gets shut out by manchester united tonight once again; then it could be more than 5 goals drubbing in favor of Manchester United.

The problem with this argument is their past meetings have no bearing on tonight's clash.
A lot of things could have changed like injuries, line ups, and player mindset.

RBL is also coming of a draw with Bay. Munich who we know is a top caliber team in all of Europe and the rest of the world.

Alot of people are rooting for Psg to have a corresponding win; this is something i doubt; psg will struggle tonight.

Naturally so since they have more quality players and they are playing at home.
Why do you think otherwise?

[Coyster]

MU will advance while RBL will be in Europa League if this happens. Both may even qualify in the rare chance that PSG loses.

PSG is of course expected to win tonight, but anything is possible, PSG have been erratic this season and far from their best, we've seen them drop points surprisingly, especially in their league, imo I can't trust this PSG side 100%. Istanbul Basaksehir is also a side that can cause troubles on their own day, they've beaten united already this season and even in the first leg against PSG, it wasn't easy for the French champions, although they won; I can't wait for this match.

Barcelona vs Juventus is the most interesting match of tonight's fixture. We are going to see again the two best players in the world right now on the same pitch.

I don't really know how interesting this game is going to be cause both teams have already qualified and may want to rest a couple of senior players, have Barcelona already claimed top spot? Or is that still up for grabs, if it is then that could add a little bit more spice and seriousness to this game.
