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

[mu_enrico]

I don't see this game ending with a draw.

Being an experienced Football Manager for years, here's my reason:
- Fatigue: a difficult match against Roma on the last Friday surely affect them physically. Meanwhile, Barca will put a fresher team.
- Pressure: knowing this would be a knockout situation, how the player "react" is still unknown since most of the players haven't taste UCL in their career. In other words, it's about "Football Heritage."

If Barca would put their strongest team, I'd bet Barca to win. However, they might put their reserves since this match means nothing to them, therefore made me undecided.

As Juventus fan:

Hoping for a victory of Inter with Barca so Inter

- Will be under pressure on March with important games and they will lose strength on the Serie A
- One more Italian team on the final Phase, National spirit

Or...

If Inter goes out...

- More money from UEFA to Juventus
- An easier 1/8 draw since Inter locks 1 spot if they pass
- "Harder" serie A


Well I hope for the second and Inter On Europa League.

I favorite Inter Milan will win against Barcelona. Because besides they are playing at home, the opponent (Barcelona) has no interest anymore in the match. They will definitely rest some of their core players to maintain fitness. It's clear they passed the group as group winners.If it is too forced later it can be fatal to the injury of the main players

[EdenHazard]

With this squad they can still hold inter milan draw or even to beat shocking them out.

You can't really missed the good odds on Barcelona to win @5.5 now! It's worth the money! Do it.

It's really fascinating to see what difference the presence/absence of Messi makes on the gambling market. I bet if Messi would be playing this game then odds would have been around 2-2.5. The current 5.6 is really driving me and I put considerable amount on Barcelona in straight bet. Let's see how it goes.

According to several articles, here's the possible starting lineup for barcelona :
-Neto; -Moussa Wague, -Ronald Araujo, -Samuel Umtiti, -Junior Firpo; -Arturo Vidal, -Sergio Busquets, -Carles Alena; -Carles Perez, -Antoine Griezmann, -Ansu Fati

I would prefer if Rakitic starts instead of Bussi. If everything goes well for Barcelona then we can even see Riqui Puig getting minutes in second half.

Yeah it's like messi himself is 50% of the Barcelona as a club , no wonder bookies give that much to the market.
I still confident that inter milan won't go qualified easily, it's a 50/50 chance for me . Barcelona get draw or win it with 1 goal difference like 1-2 or 2-3 ... or intermilan win it in struggle and some lucky factors like 1-0 and defending at the rest of the game.

Inter milan urgently need this winning and that's could be a boomerang for them.

To play under pressure like that could bring chaos at the back as they focusing on attack, unless they found an early goal. I've seen how conte playing style works since he was in Juventus and spent 2 years at chelsea.

Dinamo Zagreb has its chance to win over MC since this game has almost no meaning for them. It would be insane for them to go with full force and maybe lost some important player with all those who have already been injured. But Dinamo depends not only on its possible victory, if Shakhtar wins over Atalanta they will secure 2 spot. In any case, Dinamo needs to win in this game if they want to play in CL or EL next year.

A completely open group, all three teams have the opportunity to win 2 spot.

That is true about Man City, they have bigger problems in the EPL, so they won't be really focused on the game against Dinamo, and that could be  Dinamo chance. I am definitely avoiding that game though, i wont bet on it.

Regarding tonight, my money will be on Dortmund, Chelsea and Napoli.

They have already qualified for the next round of the Champions League some it wouldn't really matter what happens in their game against Dinamo Zagreb,  they should rest some of their key players because they have a very tough game against Arsenal this weekend. With Arsenal winning against West Ham last night5, it's bound to give the lads a huge boost of confidence for their City game.

Inter will face Barcelona tonight in the last game in group stage, everybody know inter should win this game to qualify into the next stage, dur to the easy game for Dortmund against Slavia Prague, well Barcelona without Messi is not dangerous, I don't expect them to score a goal tonight, I will bet for Inter Milan to win this game.

[BitcoinGirl.Club]

Not sure about any other team but I think Liverpool is going to have another win tonight. By the way what is wrong with Barcelona? I know Messi is not playing does that mean they will not try for a win? Odd is @5.20 and that's for team like Barcelona? Is this a joke?

Inter will face Barcelona tonight in the last game in group stage, everybody know inter should win this game to qualify into the next stage

Yeah but that does not mean that they will be able to defeat a team like Barcelona. In fack I smell they might break out at the end because of the pressure to score and Barcelona will take advantage from the counter attacks. In this match there will be lot's of goals for sure.

The odds of 1.55 for Inter Milan show us that Inter should have an easy win tonight but never should we understand a team like Barcelona even if plays without Messi.Luis Suarez is a great forwarder,I am afraid of a draw tonight or even a lost game for Inter if they try to attack a lot which is what they need to do tonight.Barcelona had a very effective counter attack.

Currently many who support Inter Milan win against Barcelona even from the statistics superior Inter, I am sure Inter milan will win this match with a score of 2-1 even though without messi Inter must insist to win in this final preliminary round.
Same fella, I will also bet on Inter Milan.

Not entirely true, if Shakhtar wins Dinamo goes to EL even if they lose.
My opinion is they have 0 chance against City, even if City will probably come with a weakened team. Their 'C' team has players that can get into most teams in Europe.

What does everybody think of Tottenham's chances to reach the semi finals under Mou?  Good...?  Bad?

Luiz Suarez is the most dangerous if there is no Lionel Messi in there Inter Milan must focus on defense when attacking the Inter Milan back line is not missed, and true Inter Milan will attack it out tonight if it still persists in its strategy too far to win this match.

[BITCOIN4X]

What does everybody think of Tottenham's chances to reach the semi finals under Mou?  Good...?  Bad?

I think the possibility is a little bigger under Mourinho is leadership. Mourinho is an experienced coach and has won 2 UEFA Champions titles with Inter Milan and Porto.
I think Mourinho can help Tottenham get to the semifinals and even if they can maintain their consistency then they might also reach the final. Not something bad in my opinion.

[Upgrade00]

What does everybody think of Tottenham's chances to reach the semi finals under Mou?  Good...?  Bad?

They reached the finals under Pochetino last season, so the semi-finals this season is possible, but every team takes it one step at a time. It's possible for every English team to finish top of their respective groups, and Tottenham finishing second would avoid them all, they would also want to avoid the likes of PSG and Barcelona.
A good draw in the round of 16 and we can see what happens from there.

Chelsea has better chances with the home game and coming back of Rudiger. He should be in the line up according to the Coach, statistics shows he has better record at the defense when he plays. he is  better and an experienced defender than any other in the team, he is also a leader. All Chelsea need is to win to get to the next round, though they might face a tougher team with less point. Napoli is a very strong team and they cant be underrated

[DeathAngel]

Bad to be honest, there are definitely better teams than Spurs. It depends how the draw works out for them, they could get lucky but unlikely imo.

Yes, tonight Lionel Messi is not playing and will be an opportunity for Luiz Suarez to play freely and will score goals because Luiz Suarez can play very well and dangerously without Lionel Messi.
and tonight's match will be played at Inter Milan and Barcelona who will definitely qualify for the next round.

Suarez is still a very good player but he’s not the magician he once was. Naturally he’s on the decline as he comes close to his mid 30’s. I loved him at LFC, he was amazing, wish he never left.
