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

[buwaytress]

Still can't really figure out why the Reds are such clear favourites when the first leg was rather one-sided plus we only grabbed the Villa victory on the nape of its neck.

I got a big bet on them qualifying though, almost 3/1 (also pretty strange to me ha) but they should do this either by winning 2-0 or 3-1, forcing extra time and a penalty. If Real score to, we have to get 5 goals -- a tough call in any game.

Let's see.

Two really unexpected results yesterday, especially the Bayern win in Paris. What is actually most shocking for me is that Choupo-Moting scored in both legs against PSG

I'm really pumped about the Liverpool-Real game tonight, I know it will be hard and Real are huge favorites to go through but it wouldn't be the first time we're beating the odds. I'm just afraid that Alisson won't be available, he was not there during the last team training.

We already have huge problems with Phillips-Kabak combination, add Adrian to that and there's no way of stopping Real scoring.

Liverpool v Real Madrid - Both teams to score
Borussia Dortmund v Manchester City - Both teams to score

What do you think about this parlay? Can all teams score tonight in Champions League?

[Jackl87]

Even as a bayern supporter i have to say that Paris deserves to advance to the semi final. Bayern was lucky yesterday, because PSG had a lot of chances to score. Paris hit the post 3 times and right after that bayern scored and made it 0-1 but afterwards bayern could not create many chances. Bayern lost this one in the first leg because they should have scored at least 4 or 5 goals last week but just were not efficient enough back then. The abscence of lewandowski and gnabry also was a factor of course.
Now it is possible and even likely that 3 of the 4 clubs in the semi final will be sheikh or oligarch billionaire toyclubs. I don't really like that, but i guess no one cares about my feelings 

[Slow death]

I expect City to win.

after City lost against Leeds in the Premier League I think that in this game City will suffer to win and if they make the same mistake in defense that they did in the game against Leeds, they can lose the game. Borussia is also not doing very well, in the last Bundesliga game they conceded 2 goals. if i were to bet on this game i would bet on BTTS


Liverpool - Real Madrid

I am a fan of both teams so I will be happy with any result, it will be a good game to watch

[condoras]

What if these two games end in a draw?

Anything can happen but these results suit and give qualification to Real and Man City respectfully. I doubt that we will have any draw today...

What do you think about this parlay? Can all teams score tonight in Champions League?

This will be one of my 3 parlays as well, so yeah I believe that we will see all the teams scoring today.

[DeathAngel]

Let's focus on the remaining games of the quarter finals: on paper Real and Manchester City should be able to control their games and reach the semifinals but I wouldn't be sure that's gonna be so easy.
What if these two games end in a draw?

If these two games tonight are a draw then it means Real Madrid & Man City will go to the semi finals. Let’s see what happens but I think those two teams will be in the last remaining four.

[Lordhermes]

I think that Liverpool can win tonight, but I'm not sure that it will be enough to get through. They would need 2:0 win - LFC are able to score 2 goals. But it will be extremely difficult not to let Real to score. Real goal will make their task even more difficult.

I am also feeling the same thing with you, the last meeting overweighed Liverpool with heavy away goals which will take them time to recover from, I know exactly that Liverpool are ready tonight and wouldn't want to make any mistake made in the first leg that's why they may win tonight but will hard them to qualify.

Borussia - City will be very interesting. It's not clear whether Hummels and Reus will play because of injuries - it will be big factor, they are very important players. But even if they will play, I expect City to win.

City have a sure win in this match tonight, hummels and Reus are key players never to be missed on the pitch, let me watch how they gonna struggle to avoid losing with high score.

I think liverpool team can win this game but it is extreamly difficult for them to get past real madrid they are not doing good and they have difficulties wining as we saw in the premiere league and real madrid players should be boosted after their last win in the classico so i would go with both teams to score on the other hand if all borussia players will play i think it will make it difficult for man city to win.

[boltz]

Impossible night to win any tickets in UCL and I think today won't be different but let me give you an advice : Liverpool won't manage to qualify further! I've already made my predictions some time ago and I said that PSG-Real will be the final , with PSG winning. Last week , most of my friends laughed at me for picking PSG ...guess who's laughing now:)). So yea, tricky games in UCL and low odds ...pick wisely.

[hahay]

The prediction in yesterday's match was a mistake and it is a big consideration for me personally to bet on today's match. Liverpool - Madrid and Dortmund - City, I'm still not sure Liverpool and Dortmund will comeback, but if I consider the results of the previous matches about Bayern and Porto, at least it's a doubt for me to bet on Madrid and City. Apart from that, betting on Over goals is still something that makes me doubt, because Madrid and City will be easy to implement a defensive strategy and that will make the match not as many goals as yesterday's.

It is not like City is a no brainer. Dortmund can beat any team on a good day, and the first leg was a close call given the late goal for city. Liverpool Madrid is tough. Without fans in Liverpool I think Madrid will make it. Would be insane to see Zidane getting to the finals soon again. Most CL titles for one coach are three I think, right?

All depends on Dortmund's shape tonight. They can make it I believe.

[ShowOff]

Not that I didn't like Manchester, but they had a pretty easy opponent in the quarterfinals and not only ... And one more thing, I just really want to see how the French tear Manchester, just like they dealt with Bayern Munich and Barca ... In the end, in my humble opinion PSG deserve the title.

Sorry mate, in my opinion Dortmund is not an easy opponent for Manchester City even though in the first leg Manchester City was able to win 2-1. If Dortmund had been easy, maybe I wouldn't have seen them reach the quarter-finals. It's just that in my opinion the quality of these two team is different and they are at different level. PSG and Manchester City are two teams that haven't won the UCL as far as I know, and I think one of them will do it this season and hope Guardiola and his team will. But before that, let's see what Manchester City will do today in the second leg.

People are still under shock to see Bayern eliminated, I don't think City will get eliminated too although the tight gap between it and Dortmund.
For Real Madrid, it has to score 1 goal to literally kill the game.

[Luzin]

But before that, let's see what Manchester City will do today in the second leg.

The match is difficult to predict. They're just as strong. Dortmund haaland performed well, Man City must be careful. Dortmund managed to steal 1 point, They only made 1 goal without conceding to advance to the semifinals. Playing at home, Dortmund will be more confident. Their six match history has only lost 2 times. In Man City's last match in the EPL they lost 2-1. A bad provision against Dortmund, Tuchel did deliberately rest his players to play at UCL.

Dortmund is not an easy opponent. But Manchester City is a very stable team. They have the ability to win against any strong team. I wouldn't be surprised if Manchester City will beat the Dortmund team in this match as well as the previous one. However, I think Manchester City will be happy to draw this match. I would be happy if Manchester wins. Then the semi-final matches will be very.competitive

i've got this tip from a bettor: go with corners (in-play). He says the teams tonight won't sit back and defend (do u guys expect any of the teams to park the bus?) but rather they'll try to take the offensive and score asap, so expect many shots deflected, prolly GK's having a few saves, which translate into corners

It is not like City is a no brainer. Dortmund can beat any team on a good day <...>

this guy gets it. I've said it last week, this is prolly the worst Dortmund side in years, but when this team actually clicks and play, oh boy do they play alright, and you better be prepare for a battle cos Haaland, Reus and the rest will be ready to go to war

Talking about Haaland, this is it, right? this is the night, this is his moment. An underwhelming performance and his 200M or so value would tank to oblivion, but a magical CL night for him, couple goals and maybe an assist (what we're used to seeing when he's on a good day), could easily make his transfer value skyrocket like btc's price all the way to the fucking moon

The other match, my beloved Real Madrid, the most important match of the season so far. No Lucas Vazquez is a tremendous blow, but it is what it is..don't worry, Luca. Vamos, Madrid 💪🙏

[Yogee]

Chelsea - Porto was a disaster to a lot of bettors hehe. I didn't see that coming as well so I'm also at a loss. I'm taking Dortmund for the second leg vs. Man City. Best of luck for today's fixtures.

It makes sense. Whoever scores first will set the tone of the match. If the team with the advantage scores first, the opponent will likely rush to get a goal back.

Both of them will perform well tonight but as hosts Dortmund will have a chance even though they have 1 goal without reply and continue to hold until the end of the whistle and they will definitely do this with maximum performance.
Indeed Halaand performed brilliantly and in tonight's match will be very reliable and mancity will be more difficult even though they have a deadly counterattack.
This is indeed difficult to predict but sure both of them are ambitious to win, okay Like Dortmund will be more dominant in my opinion.

It wasn’t no shock for me because I didn’t expect Paris saint-Germain to exit the competition considering their thrilling display in the first leg. I predicted and betted under 2.5 goals in yesterday’s tie. I knew they’d register less goals, that’s what sometime happens when it comes to most planning comebacks, the home team will try and defend to avoid conceding much goals at home so they can be aggregated.
I don’t see Man city losing tonight, maybe a draw .
