UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

Napoli without the osimhen & Kvaratskhelia duo playing full time un the recent matches since 19 march were really bad downturn ... in the last 4 matches they are losing it two times draw once and win it for one time only after the whole season they are nearly become invincible .

Osimhen absence really make a huge impact , this time he is ready to play 90 minutes in a crucial match against ac milan who leading 1 - 0 at the frist leg of UCL , i bet napoli will still fail.

Personally I think the second leg is really unpredictable. Napoli will certainly play Osimhen from the first half, it will definitely increase their strength in attack. While the two teams have comparable chances even if Milan lead the first leg with a victory. I would not fully think Napoli will fail, but I tend to think Milan can advance to the next round this season.

Anyone can still qualify from this quarter-final stage, but perhaps what is less interesting is that we will again see two Serie A teams likely to batlle in the semi-finals. Inter is very likely to qualify, so one between Napoli and Milan will meet Inter in the semi-finals.

Although Milan beat Napoli by a huge margin in the previous match, I think Napoli won't make those machete mistakes in the second leg and might be able to beat Milan in a big way. Because I think the Napoli team is a team with a different performance.

Looking at their recent performance in the UCL against Napoli, the goal difference was the only thing that separated them. With the upcoming second leg and the advantage of playing on their home turf, they have the potential to reclaim their spot in the Semi-finals with their full squad available. It is my sincere hope that they do not suffer a defeat at this critical stage, they have come too far to lose now.

If they can achieve a clean sheet victory in this tense and heated moment, Napoli will establish their dominance over Milan, and Milan will continue to fear them in future matches, also, my trust in them to book bets will be twice now because I will pass on this match, I don't have confidence to bet this match.

About the rematch between Napoli and Milan I feel very positive for Napoli this time. It was the same for the first leg as well by the way but Napoli couldn't become very effective due to lacking Osimhen's finishing skills. But they were still able to create so many goal opportunities. They at least prevented a bigger loss while they were wasting so many chances. But this time things must be more different. I have started to believe in Napoli's advancing to the next stage more than ever thanks to Osimhen's returnal.

I'm just indecisive about if they can eliminate Milan in regular time. It depends on the resistance level of Milan defense actually. But defending hasn't been the best thing they do in this season so we never know. If they can't keep full concentration on the match then Napoli have the power to make use of it.

Osimhen's return is a threat to Milan. Of course this has to be true, considering that so far this season Osimhen is one of the most productive strikers in Serie A. Napoli have lost 2 defeats to Milan during Osimhen's absence, so in the second leg Milan will really feel the threat of the striker. .

But after all, Osimhen is not the savior who is always able to make Napoli win. The second leg is so important for both teams, Milan will definitely fight for a ticket to the semi-finals this season regardless of who is the favorite in the second leg. Napoli will obviously be the favourites, but Milan has an advantage that must be maintained.

I think it will be very difficult to predict the result of this match. Milan has been playing well against Napoli recently, they beat them recently in the Italian championship even 4:0 at home, but this is still a different game, the most important game of the season for both teams.
Napoli is playing at home and their main striker Osimhen is back, which gives them a slight advantage in return.
On the other hand, Napoli will be under a lot of pressure and if Milan impose their game, like in the championship game, then it will be very difficult for Napoli.
In the first game, Napoli missed an opportunity for a much better result, and now a lot will depend on who will score the first goal.

The Champions league is different from series-A, Ac milan was lucky to beat Napoli in the italian. Napoli will always take the Champions serious and won't accept different from AC Milan.  Milan defeated Napoli in Italian League does not mean Milan is stronger than Milan in performance.

The absence of Victor Osimhen in this Napoli team was the reason for the poor results in recent matches and now that he's back, he's surely gonna provide more attacking options for the  Napoli's teams and improve their performances in their games to come.
Trailing by a goal to nil from the first leg of the UEFA Champions League quarter final tie against AC Milan, Napoli knows that they must win tomorrow's match by a two goal margin to progress and that I think they're capable of doing. AC Milan would not want to be eliminated as well and with the advantage they have already going into the match, it'll take an extraordinary performance from Napoli to eliminate them

Osimhen left a huge gap, but if you think about it further this is also an indication that Napoli has to do something about next season. It is very difficult to replace players of his category and either they pay him a very high salary or they are going to lose him anyway. His contract runs until 2025, that gives Napoli some options. But it also is complicated because next summer all interested clubs know that Napoli has to sell him if they want to cash in a high transfer fee for him. As you can read his name has already been brought up in connection with many of the top clubs.

We know that Osimhen is a very important player for Napoli this season. They realized that without Osimhen their performance could not be satisfactory, but that was a disaster for Napoli because they only relied on one player to get maximum results.

Osimhen is unlikely to be in responsible if Napoli fail to win in the second leg, but the player has certainly made a big contribution to his team. So in conclusion, Napoli and Milan still have the same chance of qualifying for the semi-finals regardless of the result of the first leg. The pressure between the two teams is very high and whoever succeeds then they are a team that really deserves it.

I'm not even seeing osimhen as  major factor here... I meannn, he can't Play alone in pitch, can he? So he still needs support as a striker..
Now the problem is that Napoli haven't got a brilliant striker to fit in Osimhen's position perfectly... Without a good striker and a couple of good flankers too, how will they be able to get away with a goal so easily like when Osimhen plays in pitch with them??
Napoli will be playing against Milan tomorrow and ofcourse we'll expecting them to try Thier possible best to win on this.... mostly Since Milan isn't on fine form.

Napoli vs milan game should be an entertainig one since napoli team lost the first game they will be the ones putting pressure early in the game, it will be a tough game especially with their missing players, but the good thing is that osimhen will probably play so that should give them huge comfort offensively i would say they have a good chance qualifying.

Man City's second leg may have a chance to win. but not to score a lot of goals at home to Munich. indeed Munich is not so good this time, but they will not lose embarrassingly at home to Man City.
but I believe Man City will qualify for the next round. regardless of the outcome of the second leg of Munich vs Man City. they are currently 3 goals ahead. and it won't be easy for Munich to destroy Man City if in the best squad.

Bayern Munich will again face a tough test in the upcoming match against Manchester City in the second leg. trailing 3-0 from the results of the first leg slightly lowered my confidence to bet on bayern munich. Indeed, the quality of the Manchester City team is stronger compared to Bayern Munich and even Manchester City will continue to try to find victory in the second leg even though they are safe enough with an aggregate score of 3-0.

It will be difficult for Tuchel to work a miracle in the second leg considering that several key players are absent in this match. I even think that Sadio Mane may not be used in the second leg after his clash with Leroy Sane.

No team has qualified yet in that tie. It is still pretty open for both teams. AC Milan won the game but Napoli was really good in that match. Now with Osimhen available, it gives Napoli a better chance to qualify. But why has everybody forgotten that Anguissa has been suspended for the second leg after picking up a red card from a second yellow in the first leg?  Anguissa is a very crucial part of the Napoli team and if he's absent then his absence is most defiantly going to be felt by Napoli.
I hope they can find a better alternative or else they will get exploited by Milan

this is what the Napoli coach must pay attention to, if he plays Osimhen to starter then is worried that he will become a target for Milan's back line and has a high chance of getting injured again, especially since leg 2 is what determines which team will continue to the next round

the best decision was to play osimhen in the second half while in the first half napoli had to use a defensive system but I'm sure spalletti has a better strategy than I thought and the match in leg 2 is really worth watching

[Velvet78]

Real Madrid are already highly favourite side in the second leg against Chelsea as well in my opinion. Maybe bookmakers don't show them that much favourite but this is the case for me. I expect another win by Real Madrid in Stamford Bridge honestly. It might even be a bigger win like it happened against Liverpool in Anfield. It depends on how focused Chelsea can be in this game.

The Champions League is the only thing Chelsea have left in their hands so they had better prove me wrong about them. I wouldn't say no to watching a competitive game this time. It is up to Lampard's making the right decisions for the game too.

I don't expect Chelsea to make a comeback honestly. The players skills and concentrations are limited from a long time this season and I doubt Lampard's effect could be seen that early.
In the other hand, Real Madrid are the king of comebacks at Champions League by far, how could they let Chelsea pass
In my opinion Napoli vs Milan will be more interesting to follow since Napoli could win that game and even pass to the next stage before playing penalties tho.

Napoli as we speak is not suffering from poor performance in the flank, their main problem is finishing. Several crosses are wasted,  no good attacker to convert them to goals. when Osimhen was active in the team, every other attackers  ( Mario Roy, Zedadka, Serbin) we're all good. this are players who can give a good support from the flank they all performed exceptionally well as at then, and now things seems so difficult for all of them, how then is Osimhen not a major factor affecting the club's performance?

I see it's like the moment for napoli to get downturn started since last month , they have losing so much monentum and losing 1-0 from tge first leg to ac milan who i believe they would do 100% defend and counter whuch also yeah they often do that.

They got destroyed as well by ac milan few weeks ago with such low possession and a quick counter that converted 4 goals nil!

That's very sad to see Napoli can't have a good performance just because they don't have their Negirian Forward Osimhen and even the alternative players cannot have good performances as Osimhen does. Osimhen will be ready for the second leg as far as I know, but regardless of this game against Ac Milna Napoli should start thinking about alternative players for Osimhen.

In the other hand, Real Madrid are the king of comebacks at Champions League by far, how could they let Chelsea pass

It is harder for Chelsea to make a comeback because the opponent is Real Madrid. They are so confident on themselves, very experienced and mentally strong to do some comebacks by themselves. Like in the past season, Chelsea with better form than what they have now, made a great comeback in a second leg at Bernabeu but then Real Madrid flipped the match and moved next.

Chance for Chelsea in this season is very smaller than the past season as they are in much poorer form recently.

We know that Osimhen is a very important player for Napoli this season. They realized that without Osimhen their performance could not be satisfactory, but that was a disaster for Napoli because they only relied on one player to get maximum results.

Osimhen contributes like 50% of Napoli attacking power, a rest 30% belongs to Kravatskhelia and other players contribute a rest minority of their attacking power. The missing of Osimhen impacts their system a lot, less chances can be created and less goals can be scored. This also causes more pressure on their defense system when opponents can have more time to do their own attacks.

The return of Osimhen for a second leg will be very important for Napoli and can be a decisive factor for who is winner between AC Milan and Napoli.

I'm sure in the 2nd leg Napoli will turn things around and qualify for the next round I am not going to refer to some of their bad matches
I assume that Napoli prepared everything for this important match mainly they will be playing at home another advantage Milan might be confident because they have won their last 2 matches and Napoli can take advantage of this moment with a surprise at the start.

I think so with Chelsea has difficult possibilities for come back on second leg because still on underperformance, last games in Primer League Chelsea defeated by Brighton Albion and not matter with playing home. Real Madrid has opportunity continue winning trend for second leg and I sure more than 75% chance for  Real Madrid will qualify to the next round.

Chelsea still not in the winning trend last three matches, after losing from Real Madrid in Champion League they have loss from Wolves and last games Brighton Albion defeated Chelsea in domestic league. Crucial situation with  Chelsea right now not only chance for qualifying to semifinal but also their position finish on top fourth standing in Primer League and get Champion League spot next season almost close.

That's very sad to see Napoli can't have a good performance just because they don't have their Negirian Forward Osimhen and even the alternative players cannot have good performances as Osimhen does. Osimhen will be ready for the second leg as far as I know, but regardless of this game against Ac Milna Napoli should start thinking about alternative players for Osimhen.

It must be for the future plan. Just let osimhen focus on the second leg of UCL. Osimhen was the top scorer of napoli. That's a common thing if missing him is giving a very big impact. If spalletti already confimed osimhen will be playing in the second leg and im feeling so confidence waiting for a good result by osimhen for the second leg. It's likely that napoli will have a very big chance to win against ac milan if osimhen will able to fully play in upcoming match. Im so glad osimhen is coming back again after he has been injured.
The performance of napoli declined so hard without him. It has already been confirmed that napoli will keep using the same strategy as before. Will osimhen become a nightmare for ac milan? I meant we must also take a look at how good osimhen is this season.
Ac milan may be in a very difficult situation. Osimhen can change everything in the club. The fact that if kvarat is also very happy osimhen is going back again after he has not been ably participating in the first leg.

Taking napoli is a must. Ac milan will be playing away. It seems like that ac milan will be leaving the UCL after upcoming match against napoli in second leg of UCL.

[dzungmobile]

I'm sure in the 2nd leg Napoli will turn things around and qualify for the next round I am not going to refer to some of their bad matches
I assume that Napoli prepared everything for this important match mainly they will be playing at home another advantage Milan might be confident because they have won their last 2 matches and Napoli can take advantage of this moment with a surprise at the start.

I am not sure as AC Milan are so experienced in Champions League and they also won against Napoli in Naples two weeks ago in Serie A. They only need a draw in Naples at the second match and will be able to join semi finals.

Napoli will bet all with Osimhen return to beat AC Milan. The striker can combine with Kravatskhelia to bring more pressure to AC Milan defense system. I don't know will Osimhem be completely ready for the match and will be able to play with his best.

I don't expect Chelsea to make a comeback honestly. The players skills and concentrations are limited from a long time this season and I doubt Lampard's effect could be seen that early.

Chelsea have poor performance from both defense and attacking systems which make them harder to have a comeback against Real Madrid. No positive signal of improvement with Lampard to support that they will be able to beat Real Madrid.

In the other hand, Real Madrid are the king of comebacks at Champions League by far, how could they let Chelsea pass

It's the point which reduces chance for Chelsea to come back after losing with 2 goals in a first match at Bernabeu. Stamford Bridge won't be enough for them to beat Real Madrid.
