UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

[Distraction]

Liverpool still seem wounded considering their most recent match against Brighton in the EPL. They are still struggling with big defensive issues and this cost them two points in this match. It ended by a 3-3 score which shows how much serious the situation is now. I still can't believe how van Dijk is playing this much badly in the recent times also. Klopp must find a solution to this sooner or later. Otherwise they might still have big difficulties in qualifying from their Champions League group also.

Interestingly they played much stronger against Ajax and conceded only one goal by dominating the match also. I wonder how their form dropped this much after the international break. They have no other choice than defeating Rangers in both matches now. They will hope for Ajax - Napoli matches to end their way to increase their chance.

Napoli were really good at UCL this year, we've seen that in both games they've played. Ajax is a young team with a quality squad, but they lost Anthony compared to last year. This greatly reduced their attack power. They also sold Haller, last year Haller had a phenomenal performance. This year Haller is unable to play in Dortmund due to health problems. As for Napoli, they will be able to beat this Ajax.

I think so too, because Ajax no longer have Anthony who has played at Manchester United this season. But if you look at the Eredevisie, Ajax are also competing very well and their position is not so bad in the standings. But because this is about the Champions League, Ajax needs to improve better because Napoli themselves are still very consistent until now, both in Serie A and in the Champions League.

It is difficult for Ajax Amsterdam to keep up with the strength that Napoli currently has, Ajax has just lost a coach and player who is able to improve the quality of the team. Napoli have won two matches by a convincing scoreline, Ajax could end up with the same fate as Liverpool and Rangers. I'm not sure the strength that Ajax currently has is able to match Napoli's game, which has performed very well this season.

Napoli and Ajax Amsterdam played quite well in their respective domestic leagues. But as you said this is the Champions League they need to do better. It's not meant to rule out the domestic league, but indeed in this Champions League the competition will be tougher and tougher. I also predict that Napoli will be a superior club compared to Ajax Amsterdam in this match.
Opportunities for Ajax Amsterdam are still very wide open to see the appearance of competitors Liverpool at this time. That's how they can make good use of it or not.

[sana54210]

It is very clear because Napoli's consistency this season has been extraordinary and in Group A the Champions League has also been extraordinary by winning two games so far and it will be very possible for Napoli to win another game in the Champions League group stage against Ajax. This proves that Napoli are already much better than Liverpool who are in the same group as Napoli for this season.

As for Napoli, they will be able to beat this Ajax.

We have seen Napoli beat Liverpool, which was a big deal but we have to also accept that something is wrong in Liverpool these days and I do not know what would be the benefit to Napoli to say they managed to beat them. On the other hand we have Ajax which is getting a bit shredded apart, it is looking like they lost too many players and manager inside just one year and that’s going to cause a lot of trouble for them.

It means that we need to realize that Napoli is a better team, but it’s not a clear one yet. I would still bet on Napoli to be honest, it is an easier bet but that doesn't change the fact that we need to be careful with these bets as well.

Messi has more years to spend in PSG, we could be seeing it that he doesn't see Psg as his home but we can attest that he is very comfortable there for now. MESSI released a statement which showed that he is comfortable with Paris for now. Still in Paris he is sure of cool money flow and no shortage of salary at any time.
Besides, Barcelona is doing pretty well without Messi, bringing him back could breach the chemistry of Barcelona team once again.

This is another situation, yeah.

Barcelona aren't playing like in the past anymore. Xavi has come and changed the team substantially. They don't have any player in the center of their game plan. They have learned to play solid as whole and so far this strategy has worked amazingly. They are at the top of the standings in the La Liga currently.

If Messi comes back I'm worried that the game plan might need to be changed by Xavi. Despite knowing how much Xavi loves Messi I still don't expect him to make big changes in his strategies just because he came. Messi must be aware of this fact also but he might still want to be a part of Barcelona in the future as a player or a coach maybe who knows.

This week Barcelona played well in the league, they managed to beat Mallorca though for 1 goal. But the result made them lead the Laliga standings after today Real Madrid failed to win the match against Ossasuna. This week, Barcelona will play away against Inter and it will be another big game for Xavi's men. It's honest that Barcelona will be favorites in this match, but things won't be easy considering Inter can also put up a decent match to get the most out of it at home.

I will be looking forward to this match because basically Barcelona really will not allow another bad result in their third matchday in the group after losing to Bayern Munich. I think Inter will be good at home, but Barcelona will definitely be hard to stop given their pretty good form.

[JeromeTash]

This is another situation, yeah.

Barcelona aren't playing like in the past anymore. Xavi has come and changed the team substantially. They don't have any player in the center of their game plan.

Unfortunately or fortunately, which ever side you fall, the player at the center of their game plan is Robert Lewandowski, you just haven't noticed it yet but as the season progresses, you will get a clear picture.

[bekti3]

This is another situation, yeah.

Unfortunately or fortunately, which ever side you fall, the player at the center of their game plan is Robert Lewandowski, you just haven't noticed it yet but as the season progresses, you will get a clear picture.

Currently, Lewandowski is the main axis in Barcelona on the field.
It looks like Barcelona now will not lack in goal productivity as they did last season. Lewandowski's condition has been really very good in every game he has played and of course this is really very good for Barcelona.
Now Barcelona is one of the strong teams back after the previous season slumped.

[Furious 7]

In this case they are still balanced and have the same chance but in this case I will stay on the side of Ajax because indeed I think Napoli will still be the same as before by playing very well at the beginning but in the end they have to lose balance like the previous 2 seasons like that.
But indeed, in this case, who will win, the higher chance is clearly displayed in order to qualify for the knockout phase.

Well, you have a point we can not really know the output or the result of the match when it ends but it seems Napoli is really balanced right now, and I admit I am really new to the UEFA champion if not for the Bundesliga I will never know something like this exists, and even though they have lost their balanced on the previous season, I think they are really doing OK right now, but I can not surely guarantee at all because like I said I am pretty much new to the UEFA Champion League so I not really well verse on what happen on the previous season, but judging from their performance now it seems that they can last,

I think one of them will stay because even though at the moment Liverpool's condition is quite unsatisfactory, Liverpool is one of the candidates that I think will qualify and the other club is one of Ajax and Napoli.
But indeed this may have to be seen from Liverpool's second match with these two teams because if they do lose again it is likely that Napoli and Ajax can and Liverpool must be willing to go to the Europa League.

Oh, yes, Inter's results in the domestic championship this season look quite disappointing for a team that fought for the Scudetto last season to the last. Barcelona looks much better in the domestic championship and if you look at the results, it has some advantage over Inter. Another question is that Inter will host Barcelona at their home stadium and will try to achieve maximum results, at least to make a change in the unsuccessful season. I don't think the players will need to be specially tuned and they will try to show their maximum by themselves. Therefore, Inter will at least make every effort to at least not lose.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Rumors in the football world will never end, we are going to hear a bunch of rumours about every single club if we read twitters and fans of these clubs and pundits of them as well. Just realize that you only have the fact, and rest of it is not an easy thing to calculate.

Like for example what is the fact we have? Tuchel was fired, that’s the fact. Then whatever reason he was fired for, why he was let go during the middle and not at the start, if Ronaldo had anything to do with it, and all the other things are rumours and not to be cared about. What will it change? If it was about Ronaldo, would that change any facts? It won't, so it’s useless information.

Yes, I know what you mean, as I said before, I think that sometimes when a team does not have the required results, some clubs are very jealous of it, then for them the players are not bad, the one that is bad is the player, that is what has been shown to always happen at the world level, not only there everywhere and even in the national teams of the countries.

The CR7 thing is something that has a lot to do with what they will say, if what is really happening to him is it and why did he act like that?

He lost a baby, I have no idea what it is to lose a child and I don't even want to think about it, but I think those are things that a human being finds very difficult to endure and overcome, some do not overcome that pain, secondly he is in a club where he has been on the bench, he can't go to another team, he doesn't make almost any goals, he lost the Nations League against Spain, in Portugal the press destroyed him, they were relentless, apart from the emotional letter or message that his son told him, to hold on for a few years more so that he could play with him, that the son is already playing as a youth, the CR7 psychologist according to some sources (not completely reliable) is that he is under a lot of depression, I think that all that is what he is happening.

This week Barcelona played well in the league, they managed to beat Mallorca though for 1 goal. But the result made them lead the Laliga standings after today Real Madrid failed to win the match against Ossasuna. This week, Barcelona will play away against Inter and it will be another big game for Xavi's men.

Well, Xavi's boys are doing very well, they have also had very good results with Real Madrid, we still have to wait, I think there is still a long way to go, the next game will be with a lot of pressure from Xavi, they need good results , because everything they have invested in time, energy, money and players is remarkable, I hope that this is a game that promises, that Inter is at home is an additional plus for the Italians, so far they have done it. showing an impressive level in football, they can give pleasant surprises to the Italians, let's wait to see how they come out to face this tough game, Barcelona do not have it so easy.

I'm not sure the strength that Ajax currently has is able to match Napoli's game, which has performed very well this season.

Anything can happen but we can' deny that the statistic comparison between ajax and napoli have been telling about the truth. It seems like napoli will be making domination over ajax. The power between both are difference.
Napoli performs so good in the serie a. AJax didn't performance so well in the last match. Im feeling doubt with ajax. Picking napoli is far better compared when someone was picking ajax.
It seems like the result from the game can be predicted easily, The different thing when it was getting so lucky to be able to beat napoli

For three seasons now inter have been poor in the champions league, some say its because of there group seeding but they have bottled even the easiest fixtures. Yesterday's loss to Roma might not have any effect on this game because considering how inter played against Bayern and Barcelona's lost to same Bayern, one could say that inter's tenancity can't be compared to Barcelona. So I see a bacerlona win both home and away, and inter settling for the Europa league. Except inter twerk their pattern of play a little bit

with inter's current performance, they are one of the weakest teams in group C. after losing to Roma di san siro, I see inter's chances of winning against barca are very small, especially now that Barca is in their best form. Inter seems to have to be willing to not be able to continue their journey in the next round.

Barcelona are in very great shape, but the bitter truth is that you shouldn't underestimate Inter Mlian, as they will be playing at home, and don't forget that just before the international break Bayern Munich were also playing not so well, but still won the game against Barcelona, so with Inter also playing at home, anything can happen. However, whichever team get to win between them will have a  better edge towards the next round since both teams have lost to Bayern Munich already.

Barcelona 2-1 would be my prediction.

Napoli are really in their best form. even the victories they achieved seemed to be without difficult obstacles. which shows the quality of Napoli's game which is in the best condition. But the Napoli vs Ajax match I think will be a little tight. considering Ajax really need points. And ajax performance is also pretty good this time. Despite the fact that this time Napoli really excel in all aspects when compared to ajax. even Napoli was able to beat Liverpool. but Ajax had to accept defeat to Liverpool even though the score was a thin difference. but this match will be held in Amsterdam. so Ajax must have high confidence.

I agree with you. Although Inter Milan is not in good form, they lost against Roma in their last match. They are not playing well in the Champions League either. Still, there is no way to think of this team as weak. Inter Milan is an experienced team, they have a lot of talented players in their squad. So if Barcelona makes any mistakes in this match they are likely to lose points. Barcelona has managed to go to the top of the points table in La Liga. Now their aim is to continue this streak in the Champions League. My prediction for this match is Barcelona to win 1-0 or 2-0. The performance of Inter's attacking players is very poor right now. They are less likely to score.

Barcelona coach has introduced more tactics that will make Barcelona unbeatable through out their remaining matches to prove to people that things has changed positively with the team in this season. If Barcelona can maintain their last match line up to play inter, I think Barcelona will defeat Inter 1-2 for the favour of Barcelona, because inter are still lacking in the area of defense, which will give Barcelona strikers more opportunity to achieve victory from the match. I don't think, Barcelona will experience any defeat again, because their coach is seriously working to ensure they maintain the strategies they are using now to finish their remaining matches to embrace the title.

They are less likely to score.

It is clear that this match is an important match for both clubs, but Inter, as the host, will try their best even though their performance is not good enough, both in the domestic league and in the champions league. even so, Inter still have a chance if they win the match later versus Barcelona at the San Siro Stadium. 1-0 alone, enough to bring Inter to rank second in the Group phase.

it's tough for Inter to win this match, because statistically Barcelona are superior in terms of players as well as team performance.  however, it will not be easy for Barcelona to beat Inter Milan at the San Siro Stadium.
I will not rush to predict the result later, so far there has been no prediction regarding the line-up, from both teams.

In the match between Napoli and Ajax, I am placing Napoli ahead. Napoli are in very good form. Napoli have shown their ability to beat bigger teams at times. However, it is not easy to say that Ajax cannot beat Napoli in the current situation where the big teams are deteriorating. Finally good luck to both teams.
