UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

[Zlantann]

The difference between Real Madrid and the other big title contenders is that Real Madrid don't need to change their squad very often. Because they are still able to win the Champions League thanks to the right game strategies they have had so far. Real Madrid have been managed by completely fitting managers so far and this has helped them stay strong like every season. You know that Real Madrid have signed Tchouameni and Rüdiger in the previous transfer window and that was all in fact.

They are still fighting strongly not only in the La Liga but also the Champions League. They are one of the dangerous title contenders here as always. Manchester City and PSG are fighting for their first titles but they had better be careful about not being eliminated by Real Madrid again.

Real Madrid has been very consistent since last season's champions league. They signed a few quality players in the past transfer window but I am not sure the club is as strong as it was last season. The clubs seem to have over-relied on Karim Benzema his absence is greatly felt. Borja Mayoral and Juanmi Latasa are very good strikers that could fill the gap but currently, they are not capable of replacing the world's best player. The lack of a natural and effective goalscorer might be their biggest undoing. I don't Real Madrid making it to the semifinals of the UCL.

I am predicting that an English club or Napoli might be the winner of this competition. Most of the English teams that qualified except Chelsea are in good shape. I am also considering Napoli because of their performance before the world cup which was one of the best in the club's history. They are still unbeaten in the Italian Serie A.

Both teams have important star names. So clearly one team is not ahead. In my opinion, Paris SG looks far superior thanks to its offensive power. They have an offensive line made up of the best players from the Argentina, France and Brazil national teams. This makes them stand out. However, Bayern Munich is not a simple team and if they put their strength on the field, they have a chance to win the match.

Both teams have their strengths and weaknesses, it's something any coach of the two might explore.
PSG's strengths so far have been evenly distributed across the pitch, but I tend to think they haven't been able to control enough when under pressure. I've seen them fail in this way several times in the decider like they did in the last 2 seasons, and now they need to learn. We know Bayern Munich's strength even though they aren't too favored, but PSG must be very careful if they want to qualify for the quarter-finals.

If Mbappe wants to be compared to Messi or Ronaldo, he has to leave PSG. The league is too weak and league titles there are meaningless.

He wants to go to Madrid, but I feel that the Messi/Ronaldo kind of rivalry will happen between him and Haaland. I hope we see them in the same league soon (preferably Premiership).

The thing with Ronaldo and Messi is also that they lasted 15+ years on an elite, record-breaking levels.
Mbappe and Haaland have just started, they have to play at the same level they are playing now throughout their whole careers to be able to compare to either one of them.

I don't think the french league is such a weak league because I have heard several person sat the same. The french league is just spectacular in its own way. We already see a rivalry coming up between Haaland and Mbappe who are the current best attackers in the world now and as time goes by it will grow into something bigger and I'm sure it will push them to do better just as it worked with Ronaldo and Messi.

It doesn't sound appropriate to say that France league 1 is too weak for mbappe, I quest you must have your reason for that. But in my own opinion, I don't see it that way because, out of the top 50  known football leagues in the world, France league one ranks 8th. With this, the word "meaningless" is quite too awkward to describe such a league title. For the past few years, PSG has never missed out in any European title race, and they currently have the most league one championship. Though can't compare them to Real Madrid, they are capable of helping Mbappe reach his goal.

As the defending champions so much is expected from them in the Champions league this season. Their success in the Champions league this season will depend on how much resistance they can show against any other opponent in the tournament this season begining from beating Liverpool in the next knockout round. This is a difficult task for Real Madrid and facing Liverpool for the third time I'm sure Liverpool will be looking for revenge this time.

Liverpool isn't really in a good form this season but this also may be a good thing for them for this match because the only thing left for them is the champions league, they lost the hop for getting the EOL title and they already out of the curabao cup so i believe they will put all the their efforts to Keep playing for the champoins league

Real madrid might have a tough game against liverpool but remember if madrid as a very good mentality in UCL. I think even liverpool will become a difficult opponent for madrid and im sure that if madrid will be winning the match.
Madrid must defend its title for this season. I believe madrid can do that so well without any problem. Madrid has a chance to win UCL again. Madrid will have some starting line up in january.
It will make madrid even stronger than before.

Bookie give Real Madrid 13 odds to win Champions League, for me surprise that bookie give 10 odds on Liverpool they think Liverpool have more chance than RM, and Liverpool so bad this season

I think Liverpool will take revenge for their previous defeat and this is an opportunity for Liverpool to meet Real Madrid again in the top 16, even though Real Madrid has the potential to win again but of course stay alert to Liverpool's game which might surprise them in the match

they also signed Gakpo who can add a lot to the team, they might have started a little bad this season but they can pop off out of nowhere again, they have quality players to do so, and they are a team that i can never count them out of the race.

Real Madrid have one more year for their old players. It can be negative impact on their old players as with them, one more year means a lot for their bodies and performances.

Liverpool and Real Madrid have so many big meetings in Champions League. Two finals with which Liverpool both failed against Real Madrid. After a final meeting in the past season, now they will have another one, at round of 16, not a final match.

Liverpool will have Cody Gakpo from PSV and he will help their attacking a lot when many players like Diaz, Jota were injured. Unfortunately, he will not be able to play for Liverpool in Champions League.

Gakpo had matches for PSV in Champions League 2022 - 2023 already.

Liverpool will have a new player to come like gakpo. So many fans were hoping liverpool to win against real madrid but people shall also remember if liverpool will be facing real madrid. There will be another question to come just like what contribution that will be made by gakpo to the liverpool. Real madrid may get jude bellingham in january as madrid has been trying to hijack him from another club. I hope that bellingham will join in madrid and madrid will be even stronger with him.
Madrid needs midfielder to replace modric that becomes even olders. Modric was 37 years old now. It's not possible for madrid to extend his contract with the club. Madrid has no choice other than searching the one who can replace him

[Despairo]

I don't know why you guys only discuss between Liverpool and Real Madrid while we're still on top 16 elimination, there's many other big clubs that has higher chance to win e.g. Napoli, Benfica, Manchester City, PSG, AC Milan and Bayern Munich.

Cody Gakpo show a good performance for Netherlands in the world cup, but we don't know about his performance in Liverpool. What if Gakpo is similar like Nunez? Nunez was a sharp striker in Benfica, but he doesn't a same performance when he joined Liverpool.

I see little chance for Liverpool to be able to win over Real Madrid because Madrid has so far been consistent with their appearance, very different from Liverpool, which until now still has problems with the front and back lines. see how liverpool ended in defeat against man city even though many opportunities were created, it shows that liverpool still has problems.

I think Liverpool will take revenge for their previous defeat and this is an opportunity for Liverpool to meet Real Madrid again in the top 16, even though Real Madrid has the potential to win again but of course stay alert to Liverpool's game which might surprise them in the match

revenge? I also hope they can do that but we have to look at the history that has happened between the two teams,

Madrid has continued to excel in their last 5 matches and the results later I think will not be much different.

Previous season Liverpool was on the top of league. Now strggling to be in top 6. Bad season for them, and Champions league coming in bad moment

@SatoPrincess on paper I would say that Real Madrid should win these fixtures and progress to the next round, however Liverpool have secured the transfer of Gakpo who could turn out to be a wild card for Liverpool and may just help them win against Real Madrid. However there’s also a probability that he may fail to shine, because he’ll need time to settle in hence don’t wager only because of this transfer and lastly do remember to study both team’s form and injuries before locking in your bet.

Real Madrid always have the advantage when they meet Liverpool and the 2 times they have been in the final 2 times they have also beaten Liverpool.
Right now it's still fifty-fifty but with the condition that they are always ahead this can still be used as a reference and added value for them so they can continue to do the same thing to Liverpool even though this is indeed a difficult opponent but looking at last season Real Madrid also always faced tough opponent and they can overcome that.

Discussing the Champions League without Real Madrid and Liverpool is an inconclusive discussion without them. Joke Aside, they are the first and second team that won the last season and that is why and as this season advances further to the knockout stage, Real Madrid are now paired together which means one of them will likely go house as such, it is going to be a tough match that no one will want to miss out, February is going to be tough. I also look forward to seeing what will happen between Frankfurt and Napoli.

Iteration and Past events determine the Odds displayed by Bookies, it varies actually and changes as the event comes closers, it possible they can even decrease it as soon as they find out that Real Madrid wins Liverpool in the knockout stage and is possible they increase that of Liverpool on the day of the match between them.

Since there's nothing wrong with discussions about Liverpool and Real Madrid I see nothing there to worry too much about lol. They are the both sides that played the finals last year so there's every reason to have discussed about the both clubs
Gakpo Cody at the Eresdiva division also showed class game after game the move to Liverpool is still shocking he will be a good fit for them since he has Virgil to help him settling down among other players. He will nr good unlike Nunez, Nunez is a good player but he seem not settled in Jurgen Klopps squad. The better side to win the Champions League will be City.

As in last season, Real Madrid is again not in the favorites in this competition. but in truth, they were able to break the pessimism that was initially not too superior. in the match later, Real Madrid has an away game at Liverpool headquarters. there are many fans who say that this match is a match for Liverpool's revenge. but actually Liverpool have not shown their best performance, even though they won early in the second half of the season in the Premier League. one of their mainstay strikers, Darwin Nunez, really played very badly, he was originally Liverpool's hope, did not answer the team's needs. however, Liverpool will still be a formidable opponent for Real Madrid in the round of 16 later. even Liverpool too, have the chance to win the battle and overthrow Madrid in the first leg.

As for El Real, there are many doubts about Madrid and Benzema. now, Benzema is very vulnerable to injury, some Los Blancos fans are calling for a potential replacement for Benzema in the January transfer window. however, it doesn't appear that Don Carlo is facing a center forward crisis. because after all, Don Carlo is still relying on Benzema at least until the end of this season.

And for sure, this match will present a match that is no less exciting than the other matches in the last 16 of the Champions League.
