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

[Jackl87]

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.

I am not so sure about your prediction of the Dortmund vs. Sporting match. Dortmund has lost their last game in the Bundesliga against Gladbach with 0-1 and during that whole game they did not manage to produce a single shot on the goal of Gladbach. The main reason for that was probably that both Haaland and Reus could not play on Saturday. According to the latest news it is also not clear if both can play in today's match and i think even if they can play they won't be at 100% and both can probably not play for the whole game. So i personally see pretty big chances today for Sporting to achieve a good result in Dortmund.

Ofcourse the 4 big games of the week are

Milan-Atletico, Milan is in a good shape now it will not easy for Atletico
PSG-City, PSG must win every game
Juve-Chelsea, Juve is recovering but they will without attacked injuries on the last SerieA turn, hoping for a draw.

Manchester United - Villareal, because you know why

[Altryist]

 Well, can Real Madrid finally beat the Sheriff today, who was able to make a fuss and is taking first place in the group now? I think that the victory of Real will be confident. But the match between PSG and Manchester City will be much more interesting. Despite the fact that PSG will play at their home stadium, I think that City will not lose today. I expect both teams to score goals today, and I also expect City to win, or at least not lose.

[LTU_btc]

PSG - City is main game today and maybe main in whole group stage. Personally, I think about making City not to lose bet.
Porto - Liverpool, I doubt it's going to be easy, but LFC should win.
Shakhtar - Inter. Inter are favorites, but bear in mind that last season both games between these teams ended 0:0. And after loss to Sheriff this game can be crucial for Shakhtar.
Borussia - Sporting. I think that bookmakers understimate Sporting too much, especially when it's unknown whether Haaland will play.
Real - Sheriff. Real should win without any doubts, but think it's not going to be that easy as everyone expect. Sheriff alreade proven to be dangerous team.
Milan - Atletico should be interesting, but probably low scoring and not beautiful game to watch.
Ajax - Besiktas. Expect big Ajax win, they are on fire, while Besiktas missing half of team because of injuries.

Mbappe is still performing great even though he wants to leave the team as soon as possible. Yeah, he wanted to leave the team in the last transfer window but PSG resisted Real Madrid's offers and the transfer didn't come true. But he will be available as a free agent this January and I guess that Real Madrid will make a contract offer to him and finish the deal this time.

I think that nothing has been decided yet in this case and that all options are still open, from Mbappe staying at PSG, to going to Real but Manchester City is also interested.
The owners of PSG have decided to gamble this season, keep the 3 best footballers of today together, Mbappe, Messi and Neymar, and finally win the ultimate prize - the European Champions League.
After that, they certainly hope that Mbappe will change his mind and stay in Paris.
The problem with this type of gambling is that the ball can fall on the wrong number and you can run out of everything, players, money and trophies.

Yeah, I have heard that Manchester City are interested in signing Mbappe also. It looks like we will witness a nice competition between them and Real Madrid to sign him. PSG insisted on keeping Mbappe for one more year and they gave up on the insane amount of money also. But they are already very rich and the most important thing for them to achieve the Champions League in this season. This is their highest chance for the title as they have Mbappe, Messi and Neymar now.

[CryptocurencyKing]

This problem of blending all three Paris saint-Germain trident together is my biggest concern. Until Mauricio Pochettino fixes this problem, they can not be guarantee a good result. The team is just in confusion. Meesi refused to shake hands with him after being substituted a week ago and also Ney mar and Kylian Mbappe who were all over the news at the weekend. Mbappe saying that Neymar does not pass to him. And this is not the first time to have seen that happen. Many people have expected Pochettino to employ Luiz Enrique style he used in Barcelona with Luiz Suarez, Meesi and Neymar. But I do not think it might work out here in PSG, because they are quite different kind of players. Neymar was originally the one with the NO.10 role, now Meesi has come, I don't know if he will resume that role from Neymar. This might limit one's role on the pitch.

One of the matches to be played tonight will be the Ajax-Besiktas match. The Dutch team beat Sporting Lisbon 5-0 in the first match. It was a sensational score. The fact that they conceded only 1 goal and scored 30 goals in the Eredivisie shows how dangerous they are. I would like to say that they have achieved these statistics in only 7 games.

 Beşiktaş, on the other hand, lost 2-1 to Altay in the Turkish Super League in the last match. In this match, 14 players became an injured team when Atiba, Pjanic and Karaman were injured. I think Ajax will win more than 3 goals in this match.

But the match between PSG and Manchester City will be much more interesting. Despite the fact that PSG will play at their home stadium, I think that City will not lose today. I expect both teams to score goals today, and I also expect City to win, or at least not lose.

The fact is that all of today's matches were interesting for me and it's not just about PSG - Manchester City, but about that match I think we all agree PSG are still not in their best form. So with such unpreparedness, it is very possible that City will take advantage of course, I personally only bet a double chance for a draw or City. But to be honest, I feel City will win in this match and I'm not sure PSG will score a goal, at least winning with one or two goals is still possible for City and the bad result is a draw.

[masulum]

Some betting platforms, I see predictions for Liverpool as the winner. I think it's a pretty interesting game, because Liverpool are in pretty good form in the EPL and Porto aren't so bad either. The match may be a little difficult for Liverpool to attack. But as hosts, Porto certainly want to give them a win at home. So, I think Draw is the best results for this matches.

[dwminer1]

In the most interesting PSG - Manchester City match I bet on a draw, although none of the results of this competition will surprise me. PSG has been doing below its capacity in the matches so far. They win matches in the league, but they get tired in them, and with the current composition they should simply destroy their rivals. The victories are mainly due to the individual skills of the players. City as a team is better than its rivals and in this I see as their chances today.

[KingsDen]

The list of today's games.
What are your predictions?

Paris Saint-Germain vs Man. City

FC Porto vs Liverpool

Borussia Dortmund vs Sporting CP

Real Madrid vs Sheriff

Manchester City victory over the weekend against the blues will be a boost in today's match. PSG super three are still in chaos, so Guadiola could seize the opportunity to unlish harm. Manchester City worse result tonight is draw.

Liverpool is going for a win.

Dortmund is going for a win and over 1.5 goals.

Real Madrid is going for a comfortable win and over 2.5goals.

[cryptofrka]

Messi is 100% fit for the game today. I'm really looking forward to this one, it would have been a real shame if he had to miss it.
PSG will be without Ramos (injury) and Di Maria (suspension) and City can't count on Gundogan and Zinchenko (both injured).

PSG is still winless against City, I have a feeling today is their day.

[CryptocurencyKing]

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..

Exactly both team would want to win. Ac Milan lost to Liverpool while Atletico Madrid played out a draw with Porto. Honestly I would prefer this Ac Milan vs Atletico de Madrid match to any other ties tonight. Reminds me of the old European clubs playing in the champions league. I'm more focused on this game. Ac Milan will want to play their free pushing football, like they did against Liverpool but Atletico Madrid would not even allow them push ahead like that. They will be minded of how Ac Milan play and score more scores in the serie A. Atletico Madrid has the experience to deal with Ac Milan and that is my major concern. AC Milan has not been playing in the champions league for a while now, they really need enthusiasm to play and find their shape.

Transfermarkt still claims that Messi is having a bone bruise injury. But some other sources show the opposite and he will be able to play. I hope to see him ready for the game against Manchester City of course. Even if he still isn't playing very good, he is still Messi and we can't know what he will do in a game like this. In case he plays, PSG will be even stronger. But I still think that City won't be the losing side here.

Actually the advantage was at PSG, they played at the Parc de Princes. But Pochettino's stats are bad when he meets Guardiola. Since Messi's arrival, they have seen difficulties and their game has not been coherent. In some games they are very difficult to win. In addition, Man City also looked very good when they beat last year's UCL Champions Chelsea 1-0 in the EPL. Man City's defense is so good, I think PSG will have a hard time winning at home.

In general, for Europe (where these matches are held), all of the above matches will be played on the same day - today, September 28. What is the point in the fact that you divided them into different days (apparently focusing on your time zone)?


I think everyone agrees that the central match of this day is a clash of two moneybags - PSG and City  Bookmakers rate this match like this:
2,95 - 3,45 - 2,41

[Harkorede]

Some betting platforms, I see predictions for Liverpool as the winner. I think it's a pretty interesting game, because Liverpool are in pretty good form in the EPL and Porto aren't so bad either. The match may be a little difficult for Liverpool to attack. But as hosts, Porto certainly want to give them a win at home. So, I think Draw is the best results for this matches.

It's going to be an interesting game, Liverpool aren't at their best, but I don't think Porto would be able to get any point off this fixture.. The Odds are really valuable for Liverpool right now @ 1.9 ishh


I guess we'll all have to agree with Man City vs PSG being the game of the day or perhaps game of the round, there is so much to look forward to, Messi looks like he'd be getting a shot after a small knock saw him miss the last few games, or perhaps the CL is the main reason why they have him.. My Pick would be both teams to score.

[onecall123]

Tonight, two of the most expensive clubs will go head-to-head in the Champions League. The UCL is still unwinnable and both teams lost their finals. Therefore, money cannot buy trophies. Regardless, both teams have better sides, and it is one of the biggest games in UCL this season. Let's hope PSG does not disappoint us. Messi continues to do well against English teams. City may win straight I know what I'm saying.

[Turbolinea]

The first games are Shakhtar - Inter and Ajax - Besiktas. Inter are seen the favourite side against Shakhtar in this game. Inter should be able to destroy Shakhtar in this game. Shakhtar were defeated by Sheriff. Inter will try to make up for the loss against Real Madrid. In the other game, Ajax are the absolute favourite side against Besiktas and I'm waiting for them to win this game by at least 3 or 4 goals like they did to Sporting. Besiktas have many missing players and most of them are important ones. They have zero chance here.

I also think Liverpool will get the win here but based on their recent performance we could see them concede a goal or two against Porto.

Another good alternative bet on this match is Liverpool over 1.5 goals @1.77 since they're able to produce 3 goals in their last 5 matches.

I'm also eyeing Chelsea @2.10 for tomorrow, it seems like a good bet since they're against a struggling Juventus.
