UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

[Prince Malik]

I don't doubt Manchester City will win this final either, but it's football and it's only one game. The result could turn out to be the opposite of what was expected. For example a red card or a penalty. Inter are not a weak team either and have played well in recent games. I think this final will be very interesting.

There are so many metricts that will be greatly affecting the performance from the club but my concern was on the starting line up. In my opinion that if manchester city gonna use same line ups like when it was facing manchester united in the final of FA cup.
Intermilan can learn from manchester united. Intermilan just need to be even better in the defensive line compared with manchester united.

Im sure that if intermilan gonna use lukaku instead of dzeko as this guy is always able helping team mates to give free space while he was holding one or more players on his line.

He was having capability to make it even better compared with haaland in term of holding its opponents and make its team mates get free space.

I don't think we can compare between fa cup final and UCL final, no matter what the line up will be i believe the club will have better motivation and will be more realistic against inter Milan, i believe inter mission will be very complicated and they should focus on the defense if they want to make the surprise and get the trophy

@Prince Malik I too believe that Inter will try and hurt City on the counter but City have gotten themselves under unnecessary pressure with the talks of winning the treble and sometimes player’s can underperform due to such pressure. Furthermore people are definitely underestimating Inter and thus if Inter can take a lead then it’ll become very interesting to watch and hopefully they can then go on to win the match too.

Not just normal football fans but also bookmakers, the ods are extremely in man cit favour and i never expected to see such odds to be honest, i looked for previous finals and the ods was never being like this in a champoins league final

[BRINIRHA]

Maybe not many people talk about it. namely about the meeting of these two teams in a match on the field. Because there is very little information about it. Because Man City vs Inter Milan have never even had a match meeting in the near future.

And the last meeting of these two teams was on July 31, 2011 in the Super Cup competition. And at that time Man City managed to win with a score of 3-0. I know this meeting cannot be used as any reference for the final match later. but I want to see history in the meeting of these two teams. There are at least 2 encounters that I found. and one of the others in a friendly match in 2010 And Inter Milan won the match with a score of 3-0.

And now the two teams meet again after 12 years of not meeting on the field. And the meeting between the two is in a special place, namely in the Final match to fight for the UCL Trophy this season.

We can't but we will able to take it as a reliable data to determine which line up that will be used by manchester city against intermilan. I think that there will be no different and the only change that will happen on the goal keeper of manchester city.
It seems like that final UCL gonna be the last match from gundogan with manchester city. Inter has some good stats in the defensive line. Im not feeling doubt if intermilan will able to create a very good defensive line.

I saw that if bastoni was interesting to copy rudiger's trick against haaland. Bastoni has been preparing everything to stop haaland at any cost. I hope that bastoni itself will able to do that and then his teammate will able to guard haaland's friends.

That being said that if haaland needs to be guarded only with a defender. It will make city's attacking line has no room to launch attack.
There's no need to use more than 1 player to guarded haaland.

[TheGreatPython]

In this Champions League final match we will see both teams score. But Manchester City is obviously going to be a lot more ruthless compared to Inter. My prediction the result is going to be a 3-1 win for Manchester City. All of us are expecting Manchester City to win this match. I just hope that Manchester City do not take this match lightly at all. After all, this is the final of the Champions League competition. Both of the teams are in the finals because they deserve to be. The only way Manchester City is going to lose this match is if they underestimate their opponent.

Too many predictions about final of the Champions League with Manchester City is clearly hot favourite in this final even we all know this is going to be high pressure game with both teams will give their best for the win and any result is possible because Champions League have history of surprises and shocking results like we have Real Madrid champions in last season with no one expecting them as champions in early rounds, but they won double right now Manchester City is clearly leading from all way but still Inter can change the momentum and also can break hearts of Citizens which could be surely disastrous for them and their fans.

Even I am also favouring them for this title and also completing their treble but still it's never been easy while we will all have perfect results on ground.

[tusandii]

Inter Milan tasks will be defending as best as possible, making Manchester City players become as most confident as possible but at the same time more careless defense when the match goes on. If the match has a draw result temporarily, a later a match goes on, a bigger chance for Inter Milan.

It seems that this is unlikely to happen because during this season Manchester City has played well and has a strong line of attack and defense, even Manchester City this season have never conceded more than 1 goal during the match in the round of 16 until the Champions League final later.
This proves that their defense is better than Inter Milan and in every game Manchester City can win the game easily.
I'm not sure Inter Milan will be able to compete with Manchester City in the final.
If there is a draw until the end of the match then Manchester City's chances are even greater because they have players who are very accurate when they have to take a penalty kick, moreover they have a great goalkeeper, Ederson Moraes.

It is highly probable that Manchester City will secure victory in the Champions League final. And if this is true Manchester City will be able to set a world record, as securing three titles in a row in the same season is a remarkable feat.

Yes, it's true that this will be a good achievement for Manchester City if it really can have a championship trophy in the Champions League and get 3 titles.
Not only that, Pep Guardiola as a coach also a title because he managed to become a coach who led his team to win 3 leagues in one season.
We'll see and hopefully what we hope for Manchester City they can actually achieve.

[wiss19]

Inter Milan is a team that I didn't hope to see in a final against the likes of Manchester City. In fact, I would have preferred to watch Arsenal Vs Manchester City again. Although, Arsenal haven't been able to find there way into the champions league until this season. Still, Inter isn't that team as, the game looks finished from the semi finals after Manchester City did beat Real Madrid.
The finals is going to look less of a finals by my speculation. Inter is no match for a hungry Manchester City and like we have now, its going to be a run through. Should Inter Milan resolve to a more defensive style of play, the most they could do is damage control but still, its victory for Manchester City.

Soccer is game of unpredictable results and surprises with no one can predict what is going to happen in next moment just like this no one was expecting Intermilan will be in final of the UEFA Champions Leagues against Manchester City, but they achieve this after beating few top teams in this event even their season in Serie A is not as expected but still they have done good performance and have 3rd spot and now going to face Manchester City in final of the Champions League with on their day they can achieve better result.

Manchester City is surely currently one of the best club in world with their available sources and also having great hard work by Pepe in last few years but still things can go in any way while they are looking for the first title of their history if they are able to won against Intermilan after beating Manchester United into FA Cup their confidence level is high for having treble into this season.

There are at least 2 encounters that I found. and one of the others in a friendly match in 2010 And Inter Milan won the match with a score of 3-0.

Based on what Manchester city has demonstrated in some of the competition in this season, showed that this match will not going to be a tough match because Inter Milan don't have the strength to stop Manchester city not to embrace this UCL trophy. If Manchester city coach can make all the players that participated In the FA cup trophy to play this UCL final, I believe they will definitely achieve victory from Inter Milan because their strikers have the skills of achieving goals in any competition. I think, this match will end up 3-1 for the favour of Manchester city because they are well organized in this season to defeat any strong teams which they will definitely apply it in this final battle.

He was having capability to make it even better compared with haaland in term of holding its opponents and make its team mates get free space.

Just one step away for Man City to realize the treble winner and I think they have a pretty good chance of making that happen. They just got their second trophy, and the victory against Man United should have further boosted their morale and confidence. It's just that they also have to realize that Inter Milan is not an easy opponent to beat. As long as Man City plays like they have been doing so far and they are not burdened with the final atmosphere, I think they will be able to beat Inter Milan.

[shogun47]

I believe that the game against Manchester United in the FA Cup showed both the strength of Manchester City and especially their midfielders, but also the chance for the opponent to play attacks till the end.

Manchester City have many star players who have played together in many seasons. They digested the philosophy of Pep Guardiola very well too and they are actually a very solid strong team, not only from midfield. Their whole system can play with very high ball possession and in good days, Manchester City don't let the opposition have enough time to breath and in such matches, chances for counter attacks from oppositions is so low.

Inter does have a few guys on board who know how to dribble quickly and they have offenders that are in good form.

Inter Milan don't need to chase the ball and aim at ball possession because it is the strength of Manchester City. They only need their players to find each other within 2 or 3 passes for their counter attacking. It is a very challenging task for Inter Milan players but if their players can find each other in counter attacking, Manchester City will be in danger.

One thing is for sure and that is that Manchester City will have more chances than Inter, but with efficiency Inter is able to shock Manchester City in that game the same way that Manchester United could have shocked them if the last chance hit the target.

Inter Milan tasks will be defending as best as possible, making Manchester City players become as most confident as possible but at the same time more careless defense when the match goes on. If the match has a draw result temporarily, a later a match goes on, a bigger chance for Inter Milan.

This sums it up pretty well and if you want to put it into just a few words, those few words be "they must not concede an early goal". That would open the box for the Manchester City in all regards conceivable. Ball possession, counter attacking themselves, taking time off the clock with 20-30 contacts in a row and no pressure at all at that moment. Inter would have to throw their tactic aboard at some point in time and there is never the right moment to open up against Manchester City. I think this duel is going to be very tactical and Manchester City will press, but only modestly without facing too much counter attack potential. I can't actually wait for the game to start.

These meetings statistics cannot be used anymore because whether it Inter or Manchester City currently have different squads and also different coaches but we can used some data such as their recent performance or squad conditions to predict the outcomes from this match although these method cannot be guarantee 100% accurate because it is depend on the performance of the team while playing at the final match later and indeed with their strength obviously Manchester City has good chances to get their first trophy from this competition but hopefully Guardiola wouldn't do the same mistakes just like from his previous final match on 2021 and at that time Manchester City as the favourite but they were failed to win from Chelsea because lose 1-0 from Havertz goal

We have a completely different Manchester City this time,a team that have never lost a game in the Champions League this season if I am not mistaken.Beside that they have crushed without mercy two of the strongest teams like Bayern Munchen who had 0 lost games before this encounter in Champions also and then Real Madrid,one of the strongest contenders.Based on this Manchester City is a heavy favorite this time as the odd shows of less than 1.50 for a final.Inter Milan can only hope for a miracle in this game but miracles do happen from time to time  .

Manchester City and Inter Milan last met in 2011 and in that match Manchester City won by 3-0 margin then 12 years have passed since these 12 teams have not played any match against each other so I think we have to discard past statistics. We have to make the final match prediction based on how the two teams are currently performing.  

Manchester City are at their best. Manchester City have won three of their last five matches, drawn one match and lost one match to Brentford while Inter Milan have won four of their last five matches and lost one match.  

Considering the current statistics, it is going to be a tough competition between the two teams.

[Docnaster]

I actually know that in football we do not do without history of both teams that are to play together. But in this case of the Champions League final between Manchester City and Inter Milan. I choose not to look at the history because any history we look at is not current and the Manchester City team we used to know in 2013, 2010 etc is not the Manchester City team we have now in 2023. There is a very big difference in the team mentality and team form.

There is a very big difference in the team mentality and team form.

And indeed the records of the meeting several years ago will not be able to be used as material for any analysis for this match. Because even when Manchester City met Inter Milan in the past, there were conditions that were completely different from now. In fact, we also know that now Manchester City is also owned by a different owner and since Manchester City changed ownership and since then Manchester City has turned into a rich club and also has amazing players and coaches. so what we need to pay attention to right now is Manchester City's performance this season which has far improved compared to last season. And I'm also sure that in the end Pep Guardiola will be able to present the Champions League trophy for Manchester City this season. I do not underestimate Inter Milan. I only measure Man City's strength based on existing statistics and compared to Inter Milan's strength.

[slapper]

I don't doubt Manchester City will win this final either, but it's football and it's only one game. The result could turn out to be the opposite of what was expected.

I don't think we can compare between fa cup final and UCL final, no matter what the line up will be i believe the club will have better motivation and will be more realistic against inter Milan, i believe inter mission will be very complicated and they should focus on the defense if they want to make the surprise and get the trophy

Well, ain't that a hoot? Juxtaposing the FA Cup and the UCL is like equating a Razor scooter to a Lamborghini! But, for kicks, let's dissect this notion. The lineups, perhaps, could serve as the crystal ball. Sort of like decoding emojis for subtext, right?

The saga surrounding Gundogan is shaping up to be a riveting political potboiler. Will he stick it out or hit the road? It's as gripping as the cliffhanger ending of your preferred thriller series!

And let's dive into Inter's playbook for handling Haaland with Bastoni. Now that's a master plan I'm on the edge of my seat to witness! It's akin to a high-stakes poker game, wouldn't you agree? But can the dark horse truly outsmart the ace? Or will it be "game over" for Inter?

I also think that the meeting between the two at that time did not really have great players in it, Manchester City currently has talented players who might be able to bring Manchester City to win the UCL this season, completing the treble winner as Guardiola's vision and mission to bring that title with his foster children. obviously been waiting for a long time.

Manchester city has worked hard to get to the final and got rid of Munich and even Madrid which may have been their obstacle, but luckily the final met Intermilan, I think this is an opportunity for Manchester city to prove that they can win CL this season and get a treble winner. can't wait to see manhcester city lift the CL cup trophy this season.

How did you know that if intermilan has no capability to stop manchester city in the final? Im not agree with what you said above. intermilan is having the capability to make it happen. Intermilan has won UCL three times. that means if this club is capable enough to beat manchester city even with very small chance at this moment. Just because manchester city was unbeatable in the FA cup and EPL. It doesn't mean if a club from another league was under manchester city.

Have you never seen a low tier club that beats high tier club? This is football. Even a club that is placed at the relegation zone can get draw or even win against a club that is placed at the top position.
The situation in football can always change drastically without any signal.

Even manchester city has a chance to be beaten by intermilan while majority of people are picking city as easy money bags for all of em.

[Polkeins]

Manchester City has been the favorite for the Champions League for the last few seasons. They spent a lot of money and built a strong team. Also the performance of this team was excellent. Even then they failed to win the Champions League title. This team is in excellent form this season as well. And compared to the previous seasons, they are playing better this year. The players are also very confident. Hopefully, luck will be with Manchester City this time. Manchester City will not make the same mistakes as in previous seasons.

Yes, in general, everything makes sense and even bookmakers are betting on Manchester City's victory odds of 1.7 vs. 7 for Inter. Everyone expects City to win and it should be the easiest final for them. The main thing for the players to withstand such pressure when everyone expects City's players to win with almost 100% confidence and this can play into Inter's hands. Inter know how to play from defense like no one else, and Lowtaro Martinez and Lukaku can basically create chances alone and realize them.

But of course I believe in City's victory this time more than ever.

This season I don't have the slightest doubt about Manchester City's first Champions League title. Manchester City's run to the final has been great and they should have won more titles than Inter.

Even though I have no doubts about Manchester City, Inter are also a dangerous team. There are several players to watch out for because they are of sufficient quality and have the potential to ruin Manchester City's winning plan in the final. Lautaro Martínez is one of them, of course because he is one of the most productive players so far as a striker. Lautaro Martínez is a striker who has scored 21 goals for Inter this season in Serie A, he has only failed to become top scorer as Victor Osimhen has 5 goals more.

Manchester City probably deserved to win the Champions League a long time ago, and several times already, but all the time the trophy has passed them by. Now Manchester City is probably the strongest team in the world, with an excellent balanced squad, where almost every player can be replaced and the team will not notice it. Perhaps only the absence of De Bruyne and Haaland can somehow weaken the game, but still Manchester City won without them.

I would also like to note that Inter at one time knocked everyone out in the Champions League when they won the Champions League in the season of 2010, when they were coached by Mourinho and Wesley Sneijder was shining there. So there is no need to write off Inter completely, although now Inter's squad is not as "star".

I think even in this case Manchester City's probability is much bigger than inter but to say that Inter doesn't have the power to stop Manchester City I think this is a wrong assumption.
Even though in this case we can also see how Manchester City's current condition doesn't mean Inter can't do anything, it's just that in this case the situation is more difficult for Inter than City but that doesn't mean City can win easily.

[Helena Yu]

Yeah there's always a chance regardless how small or big the probability is, Inter have beat many teams before, if they're weak they wouldn't able reach into final match. We shouldn't underestimate Inter, if the result is draw, the winner will be definitely 50/50 because anything can happen in penalty stage, luck will play. There are many good players missed in penalty.
