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

[Slow death]

Atletico is my favourite in this match. Diego Simeone is very intact with his defense although they have conceded  6 goals in the league so far, but I hope they will be able to turn it around. And Suarez and Griezmann's duo having Felix just behind them is very deadly in the final attacking third of the field. Marcos Llorente has also been playing quite well since the last season and Koke is almost flawless in the middle of the park. Hoping they will give us an interesting match.

This season Atletico is not doing well, they have suffered a lot every game and in the last game they lost against alaves, on the other hand Milan has had good results even without Zlatan Ibrahimovic, I think Milan will win in this game, but if I for betting, I prefer to bet on BTTS or I will choose the over market, it seems to me that it would be a safer bet


Porto - Liverpool



I hope liverpool doesn't make the same defensive mistake they made in the last premier league game

Taking into account that Dybala and Morata are injured and will miss the match with Chelsea, it can be assumed that Chelsea will at least play a clean draw. As I see from the odds, the bookmakers strongly doubt that Juventus will play at least a draw:
4,10 - 3,55 - 1,95
I wonder if the bookmakers will adjust the odds or is it already adjusted? Has anyone followed the history of odds changes in this pair?

And now taking into account they finally lost their perfect record in EPL, and missed the chance to be the only manager to beat Pep in four straight meetings,,, they will for sure try to make up for it in Champions League. This is so far the most important game because whoever wins this is only 4 points away from getting out of the group.

In my opinion, group B is a hell group compared to other groups because the group is inhabited by 4 big teams this season, and all teams have the opportunity to qualify, so it is certain that each team must be able to maximize every game available to get points, Atlético and Milan matches will be a crucial match for both teams, because in the previous match both teams got quite negative results, especially for milan who lost in their first match, I think the match will be very fierce because it can be ascertained that both teams will play totality to get full points, especially now that Milan will reportedly be strengthened by one of their core players, namely Ibrahimovich and of course it will make Milan attack power very dangerous for Atletico defense.

If it's true that Ibrahimovic plays I will bet on Milan not the slightest doubt there Atletico not in good form at the moment
While Milan has several advantages playing at the San Siro in front of their own fans will increase the confidence of the Milan players

A few days ago I read a sports media article that said if ibra has started back training and ibra was intentionally not played by pioli against spezia and will save ibra for a difficult match, i think the match against atletico is the tough match pioli meant, so if it is true that ibra has recovered 100% of course he will most likely play in that match.
 To be honest, I really want to see how the Giroud and Ibra duo are on the Milan front line, whether it will be effective or not for Milan this season.

We have a huge game like PSG v Manchester City tomorrow night.

At PSG, Messi is still injured and Di Maria will not be able to play as he got a red card. We will most probably see Neymar, Mbappe and Icardi in their attacking line. PSG have been doing a great work in the Ligue 1 as they have won all of their 8 games. But it was seen clearly that there was a decrease in their performance. I wonder whether there is an in-team problem. On the other hand, Manchester City have been really great. They dominated the whole game against Chelsea and won by 1-0. Recently, I like Manchester City more than PSG. In this game, I think that Manchester City won't lose and we will most probably see both teams scoring also.

Tomorrow is the Shakhtar vs Inter Milan match, they both have no points in the group phase but I think this is certainly an opportunity for Inter to win it even though they are playing away to Shakhtar, seeing yesterday's game Inter vs Madrid which has a dominant attack, I believe Inter can overthrow it.
If Inter milan wins and Sheriff loses to Madrid then Inter's best chance is still there, which is clear in this group D no one is stronger except Madrid and Inter, IMO.

Don't know about if the schedule is permanent or for only this week, but all the matches for Thursday seem kind of one-sided and predictable except for the Chelsea Juventus match. That should be the game of the day. Although Juventus have been playing a bit average this season without Ronaldo but they have some good players who can turn the match in a moment like Dybala. As for the other matchups, Bayern and Man Utd should be winning easily, maybe Barca will have a hard time against  Benfica as they are kind of struggling this season in terms of scoring and their defense is as always a bit shaggy.

These matches will be played on Wednesday but due to time zone showing Thursday in few countries because we have Tuesday and Wednesday for Champions League matches and Thursday for Europa League matches then Friday is free and Saturday and Sunday for local leagues it's happening for many years nothing new.

On papers these matches are showing one-sided but in ground these are not one-sided Dybala is out of match with injury and Manchester United is also some down after losing two back to back home defeats Salzburg can win because Lille is not good as we are expecting from them after last season win.

We have to be aware that the Sheriff already has a victory!
At this moment, if Inter Milan and Shakhtar need to win to be able to continue in the race for second place (believing that Real Madrid are in first).

Real Madrid and Inter Milan are favorites to qualify for the knockout rounds and I do not think there will be any surprises. I think Inter Milan and Real Madrid have 1 of the easiest groups in the competition and it will be a big missed opportunity if either of them do not qualify. Shakhtar used to be a very good team and someone who I did not like to play against in Europe but they have declined recently and I do not see them beating Milan or drawing. I think Milan will win by at least 2 goals but I think it could easily be a dominating win of 3 or more goals by Milan.

I think Manchester City will win this easily. I think neymar and Mbappe do not work well together and without Messi they will lack that edge to beat a strong side like Manchester City. I will be putting a bet on for a 3-1 victory for Manchester City. I think Grealish will score and Mbappe will get the goal for PSG.

Tomorrow both matches of this group going to be very interesting because Inter surely need to win, and they are on road on other side Sheriff is very exciting team even odds are not favourable because just @1.11, but we can expect some good fight from them after good win against Shakhtar their record is not bad at all but going against Real Madrid is also not easy for any team right now.

Ajax against Besiktas and Dortmund against sporting these both matches look like one-sided because both home teams in very good form, and they can destroy them very easily.

The sheriff is one team that always has a surprise in every game.
although inter is a strong team and in terms of quality of players these two teams have much different teams and depth of players but on the pitch what matters is the mentality and cooperation of 11 people.
Inter are indeed very favored in this match but it is not impossible that a surprise like against Shaktar Donesk will be presented again.

There is information that the relationship between Neymar and Mbappe soured after Messi joined the team and after being replaced in the match with Montpellier, Mbappe complained that Neymar did not pass to him. But Mauricio Pochettino said that rumors of a conflict between the players are greatly exaggerated. It is symptomatic that Pochettino did not deny the very fact of disagreements between the players and that the players then talked to each other and the head coach also had to talk to them. Also, Messi should return to the main squad for this game, but given his performance in the team in the matches already held, I do not know whether this is considered an increase.

I still have doubts about Inter's performance, even though they never lost on Italy league but when they play on an international event they are don't have enough confidence. Inter's current decider so far is Edin Dzeko, even though he's not young anymore, but he still can create a goal, that we can see him vs Atalanta. and in fact, he has created 5 goals, he was still very dangerous. they are lucky to bring him (free transfer) and it could be luckier when he creates the goal versus Shakhtar tonight.

I think both teams already have the same chances of winning, in the case of Shakhtar they have a great drought of victories in the Champions League. Some statistics and predictions are interesting.

Shakhtar have only won four of their last 20 Champions League matches, while they have not beaten Inter in any of their five previous encounters, drawing three and losing two of those encounters.

But Inter have already lost to Real Madrid, both teams are in low spirits, anything can happen here, although I really lean a lot towards Inter because of the footballing history it represents.

Milan, after the first strong match against Liverpool in Anfield, is looking for the first victory against Atletico, who is inside the confrontation after losing a match against Alaves, and thinking about facing Barcelona next week. And this is what gives Milan the advantage over Atletico.
Mental and psychological superiority is very important from the technical side. Stefano Pioli. I like that he knows the capabilities of his team and plays on the basis of these capabilities, and every player gets 100% of his effort on the other side, Atletico and Simeoni tied first.
A match against Porto and it was a result in favor of Milan, and there are many criticisms directed at Simeone because of his exaggerated defensive game and he has very strong offensive elements that he can make better use of.
It is required that the team improve, and if Atleti continues to perform in this way, it will face problems against Milan.

On the first matchday, AC Milan and Atletico achieved different results. The Rossoneri had to accept defeat when visiting Liverpool's headquarters at Anfield Stadium in the first week. Stefano Pioli's troops were not moved by Liverpool after being beaten 2-3. Meanwhile, Atletico were content to share one point with FC Porto after a 0-0 draw in the opening match of the Champions League, but this time I will bet on ac milan.

[mrongoz_imut]

Milan vs Atletico Madrid should be a really tough game for both of these teams. Considering the recent performances, Milan seem as one step ahead of their competitor. But Atletico Madrid are a really tough opponent to beat in this tournament. But they lost their last La Liga game which was against an easy game against Alaves. Because of that, maybe they can have some difficulty in fighting back against Milan. As Milan are in a great shape, I see them being closer to a win with a 1-goal difference.

AC Milan vs Atletico Madrid, is a very interesting game, they must beat each other to be able to occupy a safe position in the standings, if AC Milan loses in the derby tomorrow night, it can be said that AC Milan's chances of advancing to the round of 16 will be very difficult, but I believe AC Milan is able to beat Atletico Madrid, because AC Milan's performance is so brilliant in the league, making them more confident, while atm have just accepted defeat in their league, I hope my predictions this time are correct..

[hahay]

There are two matches earlier today between Shakhtar Donetsk-Inter and Ajax-Besiktas. For Inter, because previously they didn't get points because they lost by Real Madrid, I'm sure Inter in this match will win, even if they play away but I believe Inter can win easily here. For other matches, I personally still really believe Ajax will win this second match, in the first match Ajax won away against Portuguese champions Sporting and it was something great to win with a big score of 1-5. Not only that, Ajax is also very consistent in the Eredivisie and with this good trend, I personally do not hesitate to include Inter and Ajax in the parlay bet.
