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

[$crypto$]

Juventus vs Barcelona in my opinion is a club that is currently in a adaptation period, they have advantages and disadvantages that come from their new coach. But, from coaching experience, Koeman has a better strategy than Pirlo, I think in this match, Juventus more difficult to beat Barcelona, Ronaldo reported healed from COVID-19, maybe he can play in this match.

Yeah Koeman has a long experience in coaching and is now a Barcelona coach, it can be said that he has strong players in his squad, of course he knows a good strategy in facing Juventus with Pirlo's coaching.
On the other hand, in my opinion Pirlo is still not optimal in coaching and immediately holding Juventus, for sure this will not be stronger before facing the match in CL with a big team, especially now with Barcelona. But I believe the match determines the choice of the winner.
The duet of world stars if it is true that Ronaldo passes the Covid test.

AFC Ajax might be a tougher opponent to handle than Midtjylland, but the offense of Atalanta are pretty strong and I think Atalanta should be able to beat AFC Ajax at their home stadium today to further increase their chances to progress to the next stage of this tournament.

I wouldn't underestimate Ajax' offense. One of the revelations of this season (Antony) wasn't playing against Liverpool, but he's back now. Also Ajax won their Eredivisie match last weekend scoring 13 goals.. It's gonna be a very interesting match for sure, since both teams will be attacking.. I wouldn't be surprised if we see a more than 5 or 6 goals total on this match.

Ajax will be a though opponent for Atlanta, I don't think that they will find it easy to win, Atlanta recent form has deprecated as compared to last season, I'm expecting a lots of goals from this match, both teams are high scoring teams at least over 2.5 goals should be certain here

RB Leipzig have performed very well in the Uefa Champions League last season, with both Paris Saint Germain and Manchester United in group H, I think RB Leipzig would surely want to earn 3 points from Basaksehir today as it will not be an easy task to gain points from the hands of Paris Saint Germain and Manchester United.

Manchester United vs RB Leipzig will be held on Thursday this week. They have never played a match, this is their first game. I think it's a bit difficult to guess the winner in this match. However, MU may be more fortunate because they appear at home, even without spectators and both have performed well in the first UCL match. I hope Cavani will be able to make his debut winning and scoring goals.

I think so too. The Atlanta team did very well in their first match against Midtjylland. They won the match 4-0. I think they can be more terrifying on their own field and easily wind the match against Ajax. Liverpool and Atlanta can easily go to the next round.

It's Atalanta. And based on what will Liverpool and Atalanta easily go to next round? It wasn't easy for The Reds to win their match last week, they even needed some luck. Also Atalanta and Liverpool gonna face each other in the next two matches, while Ajax's gonna face Midtjylland twice (expecting 6 points for the Dutch from these 2 matches). It's very hard to predict which two of these three teams (Liverpool, Atalanta, Ajax) will go to next round.

Tonight will be a 50%-50% match from two attacking teams, with hopefully many goals.


@AakZaki: Man United - RB Leipzig will be played tomorrow (Wednesday)

There’s lots of football to be played in this group, many points to play for. Logic tells you that Liverpool & Atalanta will progress to the round of 16 but it’s too early to say it with great confidence. It’ll he interesting to see what happens with Atalanta vs Ajax tonight.

Will Bayern be Bayern and cover the Spread of +-2.5?

I want to say yes with the way they have been playing or will they slow down and just make it a 2:0 for example.

Any insights?

if it wasn't for the Inter Milan game starting at the same time (which i'll be watching), i woulda gone with Bayern -2,75 Spread in my single ticket. The germans would need to play on wheelchairs and with their eyes closed to not win that match by at least 3 goal margin 

This is a bit early but anyone looking at Man U's next game? Will they give as another surprise performance against Leipzig? At 2.3, I think that's a pretty good odds.

Leipzig are a much weaker team than PSG, but Manchester Utd are a coin toss right now and could very well get trashed by the germans. I'd go double chance Man Utd or BTTS here

[Avirunes]

AFC Ajax might be a tougher opponent to handle than Midtjylland, but the offense of Atalanta are pretty strong and I think Atalanta should be able to beat AFC Ajax at their home stadium today to further increase their chances to progress to the next stage of this tournament.

I agree^^ . Atalanta offense is really good in finding space. Gomez performs his duty so well and Zapata and Muriel are also good. But Atalanta defense is the worrying problem. Ajax attack is also not that bad so I think it could be surprise in this match. I expect both teams to score in this match but I am not sure of winner here.

[lifeOK]

Might sound entertaining however if one team could shock Bayern Munich, it'll be this dark horse Lokomotiv Moscow. My mind is telling me to bet on Lokomotiv as Bayern will lose today, changed my minds. Anyway, do you think Lokomotiv will do better today than Barcelona?

[Trofo]

It seems like Shakhtar is missing a lot of players tonight and Inter is playing with their best 11. I just placed a high stake bet on Inter to win @1.7 and another on Inter to win with handicap @2.8. The odds are dropping fast so if somebody wants to follow go quickly on some bookie that is a bit slower to adjust the odds. Sportsbet is already down to 1.45. I used my local bookie but maybe there is still some BTC accepting bookie which is lagging behind with the odds.

Game: Lokomotiv Moscow - Bayern München
My Pick: Away Side Win by 2

Smolov is injured for Lokomotiv Moscow. Gnabry is injured for Bayern München but that's not a big issue for them.

Bayern's attacking side is dangerous and maybe the best in the world. Lewandowski, Müller, Tolisso, Coman will be a nightmare for Moscow side tonight.
They will comfortably win with at least 2 goals differences. Odds are between 1.25 to 1.40 for this bet.

[Fatemablabla]

Moscow and Munich match.
Going for 1-3 for Munich. Hope to win the bet. As Bayern is in a beast form now.
Also for Realmadrid match I'm going on a 1-1 draw for that match. The reason behind 1-1 is Real Madrid doesn't have any clean goal scorer now a days. Don't hope more that 1 goal from them.

[Harkorede]

Bayern Munich have fielded a very strong XI and it definitely should be a big win for them, but the odds aren't too good, so it's pass for me. I have gone with a 3-game parlay

Real Madrid ML
Man City ML
Inter ML for a combined odds of 3.34

It will be better for Manchester United to win that match. Their whole focus is on the UEFA match than the premier league matches. Let it be that they are leading in UEFA Champions League, then-premier league

I will also pick one more match today Borussia Monchengladbach vs Real Madrid.
Real Madrid has to win here if they want to advance in Champions League, and this could be the match to save coach Zinedine Zidane on bench for Real.
They have their captain back for this match, but Hazard is still questionable.
Real won against Barcelona few days ago and that will be big morale boost for this match.
Monchengladbach have their own injuries to worry, but they are in good form and it won't be easy for Real.
They rested many players just for this match against Real.
My bet would be Real win, and I expect to see 3 or more goals.

I am going in slightly different direction here. I believe Inter is better team but Shakhtar should not be underestimated and they can score a goal or two in front of their own supporters.

I am going with both to score and x2 @1.9. The odds dropped to 1.85 as soon as I placed the bet. Did not think I was such high roller 

Let's see what happens in second half, but Inter was much better and very close to scoring a goal.

RB Leipzig is pretty good this season, so far they are the top in Bundesliga while Manchester United is pretty decent ( bad actually )

It will be better for Manchester United to win that match. Their whole focus is on the UEFA match than the premier league matches. Let it be that they are leading in UEFA Champions League, then-premier league

I wish they could win this game but its pretty hard to aim for Champions League while you are doing so bad in the local league. It was really some great luck to be able to win against PSG while they are that bad but it probably would be another story against RB Leipzig

Top two spot move to the next round but on Group H, there are 3 potential team to make it to the next round so its kinda hard though

I just placed a high stake bet on Inter to win @1.7 and another on Inter to win with handicap @2.8

Is this pre-match odds or live odds? Its still 0-0 at the moment though

[Harkorede]

Holy smoke!!! 💨

Lokomotiv Moscow has drawn level against Bayern, that was just their first good attempt at the goal 🤣

EDIT:
Could this be a good time to take Bayern ML live @ 2.25 rn ??

[LFC_Bitcoin]

Should be an intense last 20 minutes, no doubt Bayern will push for the winner & Locamotiv will defend for their lives to protect what would be an undeserved point.

Bad second half of Bayern but the result is still the same. Even though that wasn't good today, it in the end they still won. Hard to believe that Lewandowski didn't score today, what an exception from the usual. Incredible that they now have won 13 UCL matches in a row. But that performance today wouldn't have been enough against a stronger team than Lok Mocow. But right now every opponent of Bayern has to hope that they have such a bad day because when they are in a mood they'll crush you like they did with Atletico last week.
