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

[Raflesia]

I have this believe that Chelsea are going to do to Real Madrid what they did to Atletico Madrid tomorrow I know a lot of people never thought Chelsea would overcome Athletico Madrid and Porto but they did it perfectly well and a struggling Real Madrid shouldn't be a problem to the blues who are looking forward to their 3rd final.

There were many people who predicted that they would beat Porto. Still, I can say 50-50% of those who think they will eliminate Atletico Madrid. Tomorrow they have to be very careful against Real Madrid. Now the Semi Finals and both teams want to win. My favorite is Real Madrid, but there is still no definite favorite for these matches. Both teams can win.

Win for both 50:50 Chelsea are now doing well and able to face even better teams, it is also reported that Real Madrid defender Segio Ramos will miss Madrid due to injury so Zidane will feature another defender in his main defense now in here Chelsea might be able to break through more easily because they know Ramos is the most difficult defender to go through with the agility of the Chelsea attacker so this can be one of the tactics that can be proven by his goal.

Zidane and Tuchel are great coaches who were able to reach the final before so maybe this is where they will have a strategy to prove it.

So what is going to happen to Barcelona and Real Madrid after the Super league fiasco?

It would be quite amusing if Man City, Chelsea and Real Madrid were expelled from this season's competition. Wonder if PSG are pushing for that to happen?
Seriously though, there is widespread ill-feeling towards these clubs, and the feeling that some serious punishment is in order. Fines are irrelevant. Lesser clubs have suffered bans and points deductions, even outright relegations... will UEFA have the stomach to punish the big teams, too?

[nelson4lov]

Hazard has been named in the team to face Chelsea tomorrow, in his last wish before leaving Chelsea has finally come true, in his last words he said " I hope we get a draw against Chelsea in the champions league" time is here he is my favourite but I pray he flops against us. Hazard is a decisive player, he turns games around individuallly

I can't wait to see how tomorrow's game plays out. Both teams are good statically but my money is on Real Madrid to win the tie. One of Zidane's primary target this season is to win the Champions league title and I don't think they'd like to back down now when they go up against Chelsea tomorrow. Tuchel has done a great job at Chelsea since his appointment but I feel this one is for Madrid but we would never know.

I will definitely watch the game. It's always interesting whenever a player goes up against his former club. There's always a show to put up.

Don't spread fake news bro, Manchester City and Chelsea have already officially withdraw their participation to the European Super League since one week now. It remains only 3 clubs in the league at the moment : Real Madrid, Juventus and Barcelona. So Manchester City and Chelsea can't and won't be expelled or even punished. This is a fake news.

I've said it before this is going to be another English final, Chelsea vs Mancity I've already stake some coin on it 2 weeks ago, Chelsea champions league record is no match for Real Madrid but currently, Chelsea is in a good position to win this tie following their recent run of games. Maybe I'm being biased but I'm up to it.

[jaberwock]

I do not know why I am feeling this way but I feel like there is a big chance that Real Madrid will not only win the game but more like dominate the game. I know that Chelsea is a good team and ever since Tuchel took over dude has turned this team into a team that's great, but this is Real Madrid we are talking about. I know that Chelsea has been good, but they haven't been good that much, look at premier league they still have games where they lose points to teams they shouldn't.

This is why I believe there is a chance Real could end up with a score like 3-0 or so and make sure that they will go to finals, have a very nice cushion for the next game. We can't know what will happen before the game ends, so I know I am speaking way too highly of Real right now, but I wagered on them and expect them to full on destroy Chelsea for sure.

Actually, we are not talking about the punishment of English clubs, because all six clubs have withdrawn from the Super League project. Real Madrid remained in the project and just plays with Chelsea in the Champions League, so the UEFA President was asked about the exclusion of Real Madrid from the current draw. The UEFA president said that the match will take place due to obligations to television, but did not rule out sanctions for the next season. Zidane replied that he would like to see Real Madrid in the Champions League next season, but of course Zidane does not play a major role in this matter.

2 weeks ago? Wow! You should have placed your bet on them just after the end of the quater-final matches to be able to be so quick... You think Chelsea and Manchester City will win their matches but that's obviously not the opinion of the bookmakers, because they think it's even more likely for Real Madrid to win than to get a draw against Chelsea.

[Spack17]

Chelsea really seem like they started fully focusing on the Champions League draw against Real Madrid. Otherwise, it means that Chelsea started having really big difficulties in winning games. I can't wait to see their performance against Real Madrid in the first leg. After seeing Real Madrid destroyed Liverpool home, I wonder whether they will succeed in doing it against Chelsea too.

I think for Chelsea to create problems for Real Madrid, they have to build a much better tactical structure, because at the level of quality I think Real is better.

Now Thomas Tuchel has done a good job at the tactical level, which has worked, even when his team doesn't even play good games.

They will need to play much stronger compared to their performance against Porto, I agree with you. Because they are going to play against a very dedicated and strong team now. Real Madrid will want to have the control of the match in the first leg. If Chelsea fail on finding a solution for this, their end could be no different than Liverpool in the first leg.

I think Chelsea will struggle to beat Real Madrid tomorrow because Real Madrid is the strongest candidate there so far. Unlike Atletico Madrid and Sevilla, Real Madrid may be the favorite in the match and Chelsea must be aware of that. I hope Chelsea have good motivation to do well at home, it's a good chance to win the first leg.

That's a pretty bold move to take. Particularly because I don't believe that PSG would let Manchester city win even though Real Madrid loses their spot to Chelsea. PSG will definitely be a hard nut to crack and considering the fact that they lost their chance to win their first UCL title last year, this would be a good time to do so. It would be similar to how Liverpool lost UCL to Real Madrid by 3-1 to but went back again to win it. Let's see though. Tomorrow isn't too far.

I hope Chelsea have good motivation to do well at home, it's a good chance to win the first leg.

The first leg will be in Spain. Madrid will host. But the first leg is an advantage for madrid, they will have to score a lot of goals for the second leg because they are going to England. They haven't competed in a very long time, this is sure to be fun. Chelsea was good today but I won Real Madrid. Maybe Chelsea has the upper hand in the number of players who are fit to compete, only Mateo Kovacic is injured and cannot appear.

No usually it's the team coming from outside which needs to score goals as much as possible, not the team hosting. Because in case of a draw, only goals scored away are counted to designate the winner, goals scored at home don't count. That's why the burden to score will be on Chelsea tomorrow and Real Madrid doesn't need to be offensive.

They can't win the match. Real is much stronger than Chelsea while this team only regains the performance lately. On the other side, Real is super powerful with Zidane - the leader who has won 3 champion league titles. I guess Chelsea might make the match become quite hard but overall, the final victory is for Real. And Real will once again become the champion of the league

[blue Snow]

What prediction score of Madrid vs Chelsea? Is there have a chance for to Chelsea create a goal for Madrid's home?. because Zidane is a person who won 3 winners (hat trick, 2015-2018) of the champions league as a coach, he wouldn't keep to Chelsea to create a goal on the home. about the player, Seems, Madrid will be turning into the full team (maybe Kroos and Ramos still hanging in sparing seat cause of little injured) while Chelsea has confidence with the last winning in the premier league. my prediction score is 1-0 for Madrid.

Wow, I have just imagine how his going to react towards winning his previous mates, I can remember how Neymar celebrated when he scored against his old team mate, I believe hazard do the same if he score against Chelsea. What do you think?

EDIT: Hazard was substituted into the field at the late hour so he couldn't do what he might have planned to play against his formal club, let's watch him in the second leg next week.

[Cnut237]

What prediction score of Madrid vs Chelsea?

Chelsea have only scored 2 goals in their last 4 games. Real Madrid have scored 3 goals in their last 4 games... but that was a 3-0 win, the other 3 matches were all 0-0.

Perhaps we might see a 0-0 result in this match? Teams will be reluctant to concede an away goal in the first leg, and may play defensively.

[joker_josue]

What prediction score of Madrid vs Chelsea?

I think Real Madrid wins. I aim for 1-0 or 2-1 for Real.
I see Chelsea able to score a goal in any counterattack.

I have some doubts when the tie, Zidane should not play for the tie.

PSG have good player quality and have desire to win Champions League after the final defeat in the last season. Their players, their coach, board director and fans, I meant all the united club will want and fight to win it.

They can't win the match. Real is much stronger than Chelsea while this team only regains the performance lately. On the other side, Real is super powerful with Zidane - the leader who has won 3 champion league titles.

Real Madrid have better players and more experience in Champions League (with three trophies in three continuous seasons) than Chelsea but their players are exhausted. This situation is not good for Real Madrid. They might loss both La Liga and Champions League.

If they can beat Chelsea, they can do anything in the final match but now I think they will be toughly challenged by Chelsea and Tuchel.

The truth about champions league tie is this, when it involves champions league football, league form is irrelevant because this is a different competition; Madrid and Chelsea has good games and the former has never struggled for domination especially in champions league ties; will tuchel set up to choke Real Madrid midfield line? or play 5 atb as always ?

I think Real Madrid will nick a 3-1 victory.
