UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

[izsara]

PSG has the chances of beating Bayern Munich because they already have the best squad as far as champions league is concerned but that doesn't mean having the best squad can make them win the Champions league.  Their game with Bayern Munich will be so interesting to watch.

The best squad alone is not enough to beat Bayern because if you look at the composition in terms of Bayern players, it is also filled with players who are actually above average in individual skills.
Solidarity must be established and we know that sometimes it is difficult for PSG to do that and it would be better if they could maximize the condition of their good players to be able to play even better.
They have a good squad but are still below Benfica in the group stage even though they are level on points this still means their efforts are not enough.

Chelsea are playing great football at the moment. Even though they were defeated by one of the best teams Manchester City, they put up a great performance in that day's match. They lost that match due to their few mistakes, hope they will play well in the next matches and be able to secure victory.

Great football? That is an exaggeration mate.

Yes there were some positive things against Manchester City but this doesn't show that they are always like that. They have been performing quite poorly in the Premier League since the beginning of the season. If they were playing a good football then they wouldn't have been in the 10th position in the standings now. Chelsea have become a very inconsistent team and it is very hard to predict the outcome of any of their games from now on.

Liverpool has to get an advantage at home, at least they have to be able to win even if only 1 goal. playing at home to Madrid will not benefit Liverpool. especially with the current performance of those who tend to experience a decline.
Liverpool must take advantage of the match at home, at least they will secure the opportunity to qualify for the next phase. although Madrid is a very strong team, it will be difficult to overthrow them. but if Liverpool has a better strategy, they can win.

Madrid is not the type of club that thrives in just home games, they could lose 2-0 on their own home game and everyone would imagine they are gone, and could beat the other team 3-0 on away game (anfield in this case) and go further stages. This means that Liverpool can't just beat them at Madrid and feel good, or beat them at anfield and feel good neither. When you are playing against Madrid, every single minute counts and it's very very difficult.

Look at City, they were leading up until like 88th minute of second game, at that point you expect City to win, you would see like x50000 odds at places, insanely low chance, then Madrid scored twice and beat them at overtime. Proves how good they are and they never give up.

Real Madrid is a very complete and organised team. They have the right mentality and great team work to compete at any level.  They have beaten Liverpool twice in their past meetings so the next meeting I expect to see a very competitive game between both sides. I know it wouldn't be an easy game for Liverpool but at the least I expect the game to be tough for both sides.

Of the several big teams that have qualified for the round 16 of the Champions League this season, I am more certain that Parist Saint Germain and Manchester City will advance to the final based on the achievements of each team so far. What do you think, which of the participants has the potential to reach the Champions League final this season?
Are there other candidates with more potential than PSG and Manchester City?

[makishart]

Honestly,  this game is so unpredictable to tell which one of the teams will be the winner. This two teams are strong , any little mistakes from any of the teams can give the other advantage of winning the game.  Sometimes when big teams like this meets winning comes by luck. Losing to the opponent can happen by small mistakes.

That's why PSG against bayern will become the hottest match in UCL. that will be making two teams as champions from the differnet league to face in the same arena to beat each other.
PSG may have three main players that will be threats for bayern but im sure that bayern has been thinking about how to reduce those players.
I do believe in bayern caused by bayern has a very good statistic against messi. A small mistake can change the situation in a short time. This is how the most competitive match in the UCL to happen.
Both were champions in their domestic league. this is prestigeous match for both of teams.

@SatoPrincess the current Liverpool squad looks really weak when compared to Real Madrid, but the arrival of Gapko could boost their morale up but if he fails to quickly settle in then I believe that there’s no way Liverpool will win against Real Madrid.

@zuzie while I have no doubt about City progressing ahead because of Pep and Haaland, but for PSG I’m concerned because Mbappe yet needs to fully recover from the World Cup loss and Messi and Neymar keep on getting injured hence in my personal opinion PSG will be under pressure when they face Bayern.

Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Napoli has a high potential to qualify become top 4, the rest I don't see any good chance because of some reasons. Liverpool's players are suffer serious injury, Borrusia Dortmund and Leipzig will transfer their best players, Tottenham had terrible performance at Premier League, both AC Milan and Inter Milan has huge gap difference with Napoli in Serie A etc.

Actually I don't think PSG will win this champions league since they're not good in this year.

PSG is strong enough to be a strong candidate in the Champions League. but in the last 16 they met Munich. this can benefit PSG and it can also destroy PSG. Munich is currently also back up again in the Bundesliga. even though they have problems with their injured goalkeeper. and that is an advantage for PSG in the match later. we know PSG has a very strong front line, and of course, if Munich doesn't strengthen their defense, it could be bad when you see PSG filled with a star squad.

They always are one of strongest teams in Champions League and they are the same in this season. This season is important for PSG to win Champions League with players have been playing together many years. If they fail, some players will leave the club and if they stay, they are no longer young to play and compete well in future.

It is not a last chance for PSG but almost similar to last chance, one of very last chance for PSG with those players. If their club has to let many players go, buy many new players, they will need a few seasons to combine them for a new strong team. It's not easy.

Bayern are strong and one of most successful clubs in Champions League but I am sure PSG won't play with fear. With many star players, they have confidence and believe in themselves. It is only their defensive weakness still exists that can give Bayern opportunity to exploit and beat PSG. Chance for Bayern is small because their team have problems with injury and form too.

PSG vs Bayern Munich is a big UEFA Champion League match that takes place in the knock out stage among other matches in my opinion although other matches also have nuances that are not much interesting.

PSG is eager to win the UEFA Champion League for the first time after only being able to achieve runner-up in the 2019-2020 season. The amount of money spent will certainly pay off if Mbappe, Neymar, Messi and friends are able to lift the trophy.
Their challenge is tough because Bayern Munich is not an easy opponent to beat.

I see victory ahead of PSG in this knock out stage, because their players will do everything possible within their power to achieve victory that will make them to have full confident of winning this UEFA champion league title. I don't think, Bayern Munich have the strength to stop PSG in this match because they are still lacking in the area of defense which will be one of the advantage PSG will use to have access to victory in this match. I believe, Messi, Mbappe and Neymar will definitely apply those skills they displayed in the FIFA world cup competition to play this match to stand in a good position to win the title.

The last 16 of UCL has not yet started and we will not know what's gonna be the result. I believe Madrid and bayern will be going to the final rather than city and PSG. Madrid and bayern were always doing so well yet PSG may be very popular caused by it has the best line up as there are messi, neymar and mbappe in the same club.
I personally think that Madrid and Bayern will be more potential compared with PSG and city but i think that we shall not forget about napoli. Napoli has been rising up again.
The italian team can give us surprises anytime. It's caused by they will be facing easy team.

IMO, the strongest match will be between Liverpool and Real Madrid. Bayern Munich vs PSG will be 2nd and Tottenham Hotspur vs AC Milan would be third in my opinion.

Paris Saint-Germain is up against Bayern Munich, with matches on 14th February and 8th March. As you mentioned PSG will be the overwhelming favorites. In case they move towards the Quarter-finals, then they may face some of the stronger teams such as Real Madrid or Manchester City. We don't know how the Quarter-final lineup would look like, because the seeding system is not being followed this time. As far as I know, the combination will be decided based on a draw, after the Round of 16 is completed.

Round of 16 of the Champions League, has several interesting matches and looks like it will present an atmosphere with hot game tension, especially the PSG vs Bayern Munich match. because this match is a premature final match when compared to the Liverpool vs Real Madrid match. why, because Liverpool's performance is unstable and Madrid's performance is not showing their best game.

Meanwhile, for the PSG vs Bayern Munich match, the performances of these two teams often present interesting matches even though the opponents they face in the domestic league competition are not as strong as in other leagues. however, this clash will feature the best of both versions of teams topping their respective leagues.
PSG has Trio MNM, Bayern Munich has teamwork and players who are prolific in terms of scoring goals. As for Liverpool vs Madrid, this match is also really interesting, especially for the fans of these two teams. however, when referring to Liverpool's performance which has not gone in a better direction. so this fight, it will be difficult for them to win. moreover, Madrid has always dominated the history of H2H meetings between these two teams.

[Cookdata]

I also expect PSG and Bayern Munich to be the most interesting matches to look forward to for the round of 16. Apart from that, Real Madrid and Liverpool are no less exciting to look forward to. It's worth mentioning as a final, but unfortunately they had to be drawn too soon for the round of 16.

Why would you say Real Madrid and Liverpool would be less exciting with all the low-rank matches they have been playing since they returned from the world cup and Real Madrid? I think Madrid is fair to say they are better than Liverpool lately but they confirm that one of their defender Alaba and Mid fielder has sustained an injury with an unknown date they will be returning and these two teams were the most captivating teams that made last season so interesting all the way from the group stage and they are now to face each other in the knockout stage, it wouldn't be an easy task for both teams.

While I think PSG and Real Madrid will qualify for the quarter-finals, of course, Bayern Munich and Liverpool are two teams that have ambition and seriousness in this competition every season. I want to see PSG and Madrid qualify in the quarter-finals, it's very possible in my opinion.

If all wishes were horses, then everyone's favourite team would win all the interesting Leagues we all value, however, it doesn't work that way, I think PSG is in good form without any barrier right now but who knows, anything can still happen at the end of the day.

everyone has their own opinion and support, madrid and munich are of course very favored to be able to go to the final because of their track record in the UCL but we also need to know that manchester city and PSG can surprise, I'm sure manchester city will go to the final

Well, maybe you're all hung up on the big teams and also their good history in the Champions League, but I think it looks like this season might be very different. If you follow the results of the group stage, then I think there will be one team that can also be considered at this moment to be able to go further.
Those teams are Benfica who did very well in the group stage and even, PSG which you would suggest to be a candidate to reach the final. But in reality, PSG couldn't beat Benfica at all in the group stage so yes, I'm sure Benfica at this moment can be a team that is difficult for seeded teams to beat.

I honestly still feel that anything could still happen in this.
We know that for the last few seasons it has not been good for Bayern in the Champions League.
After they won the 2019/2020 season, these 2 seasons they weren't very good because they were always stuck in the quarter-finals.

Last season was actually a bit surprising because if in the 2020/2021 season they lost to PSG who are indeed strong but last season they lost surprisingly because Villarreal is actually not a strong team.
Currently Bayern and PSG will meet again and this is still fifty-fifty as for Madrid this is also still unpredictable in my opinion even though Liverpool's performance so far in the EPL is not very good.

I believe that PSG is currently superior to Bayern at this time. Having the world cup stars brag about Messi and Mbappe's accomplishments will spur PSG on to win the Champions League, which wouldn't be bad at all. However, the fact that Bayern has won their last five games by an average score of 18 points shows how exciting the game is becoming.

They are richer than Bayern and have abundant budget for player salary, player transfers, coach salary and other spendings. They have more star players than Bayern and their squad has a younger average age than Bayern too.

They are more superior to Bayern but to win Bayern, they need more than theory and stats. If we only base on finance and strength in theory and stats, only one or two clubs in Europe can compare with them, likely Manchester City and maybe one more club Real Madrid.

Winning in their domestic leagues and in Champions League are different. Bayern and PSG are too big and dominant in their domestic leagues so winning and winning big there are not too big tasks for them. PSG are greed to win Champions League and they must prove that they are deserved to be a champions firstly by beating Bayern.
