UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

[W Jr.]

But their performance has improved a bit after being in the UCL, they played well against their opponents. Manchester City will try to achieve success this season, I know it's not easy for Guardiola, the player material currently owned makes Manchester City still in the ranks of the favorite team.

Manchester City's next match is against Leipzig. Leipzig is a relatively weaker team compared to Manchester City. So the possibility of Leipzig being eliminated in the round of 16 is very low. Moreover, Manchester City is in very good form right now. I would say Manchester City, Bayern Munich, and Real Madrid will be the favorites to win this season's Champions League.

For Leipzig, beating Manchester City will be as important as winning UCL. Manchester City are currently the single favorites of the cup in my opinion. It is very difficult for Leipzig to stop them in these qualifiers. However, it is not right to speak early for an unplayed match.  We will comment again after the first game. My favorite is Manchester City.

Manchester City will definitely defeat Leipzig for sure, Leipzig does not have the strength to challenge Manchester City.  This season I don't see Manchester City winning the champions league,  Bayern Munich is putting more effort towards winning the champions league.

It is clear that City is a clear favourite this year, finally, however there are some clouds over their heads at the same time. I mean they have some financial issues that they need to fix first, and if they can't, they are going to lose so much suddenly, like lose all the things that they have won so far and that's an issue.

The financial issue that already happened with city won't give any impact to the performance of club. I meant it's only happening in premier league. The first match against leipzig will just begin soon. I think that even city was a strong team in EPL but it's unlikely city has become most favorite club against leipzig but leipzig was also strong enough in bundesliga.




Surprisingly bookies were giving very big odds for leipzig. Based on head to head between leipzig and city. There's no club that was dominating head to head.

Haaland is not playing that great as well recently, I think what will decide the end could be just him scoring like 25 more goals rest of the season, and the team not getting any punishment. I don't know what's going to happen next season if they end up with the punishment, will they be able to keep the team together?

That depends on what punishment that will be given by premier league. If premier league will be relegating city to the championship and it's gonna be the end for city.

We watched the Liverpool - Real Madrid final last season in this cup. And then Real Madrid won the cup. We are watching an early finale this season.

Liverpool have not conceded a goal in their last two league games. And they won both games by scoring two goals. They are still far from the strong Liverpool image of last season. But in the last few weeks they have started to see good results. It's almost impossible for them to win the Premier League this season. But if they can win the Champions League with a good performance, they can make everyone forget the bad results in the league. That's why I think they will concentrate on this cup. I support Liverpool in this matchup.

Real Madrid Liverpool can be interesting especially if you know Real Madrid on good days and they are still racing in the league while Liverpool doesn't have a good situation with Klopp so this week if Klopp wants to decrease the pressure from his team he had to do his best and win the game while in the other match on this week, we have Napoli and Inter which can be a super interesting game because Napoli is winning every game these days while Inter Milan is trying hard that's why this game can be really important for Inter Milan.

We watched the Liverpool - Real Madrid final last season in this cup. And then Real Madrid won the cup. We are watching an early finale this season.

I were aware of that too. I meant i saw that in the last season if so many people doubt about the performance from real madrid but madrid has proven itself by winning another UCL title again. This match is a match between clubs that were holding most UCL trophies. Liverpool with 6 trophies while real madrid 14 trophies.

Liverpool have not conceded a goal in their last two league games. And they won both games by scoring two goals. They are still far from the strong Liverpool image of last season. But in the last few weeks they have started to see good results. It's almost impossible for them to win the Premier League this season. But if they can win the Champions League with a good performance, they can make everyone forget the bad results in the league. That's why I think they will concentrate on this cup. I support Liverpool in this matchup.

I saw that but it doesn't enough to prove the quality of liverpool in front of madrid. You can see that from https://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsleague/history/h2h/50051/7889/

Liverpool was not dominating head-to-head against real madrid. that's why liverpool must be careful caused by real madrid will be coming as a strong team. Real madrid is still as strong as last season.

[mv1986]

Firstly I can't trust Liverpool's performance this season. Liverpool is now a team in disarray. Compared to them, the Real Madrid team is much more stable. Ancelotti is also a very experienced coach. He knows very well what strategy is required to play on a platform like the Champions League. And so whatever the odds in this match, I'll bet Real Madrid to win. I believe Madrid will not make any mistakes in the first leg. they will win.

The atmosphere of the Champions League is clearly very different from the EPL. So from that, it could be that Liverpool, who are currently still inconsistent in terms of performance, but I hope that by facing Real Madrid both of them will have a large enough influence so that in this match they can motivate Liverpool's players to be able to keep up with Real Madrid. I personally would not bet, or maybe take the draw option in this big fight.

I think that losing the final against Real Madrid was very painful for Liverpool in 2022. The game was all about Liverpool, but in the end Real Madrid scored the goal. While I expected Liverpool to win it last year, I am not so sure about this year. Real Madrid isn't playing that well either this season, but they have a psychological advantage I think. A lot might depend on an early goal for Liverpool because when they met the last time Liverpool had 24:4 shots and yet they didn't score. I think they could get nervous if this game goes a similar way and that is when Real Madrid has all that experience to make it through in the end. It's going to be an exciting game.

I don't see Real Madrid having much of a chance in the Champions League. However, if Real Madrid can perform as aggressively as La Liga in the Champions League, there may be some chances in the remaining matches.

What did you think last season? That Real Madrid had a better chance than this season? Real Madrid was dominated almost every single game in the champions league and yet they won it in the end. They do have the experience and the efficiency to win big games even when they look like losing it. Vinicius Junior has very well developed and the team is not in its best shape, but in a good enough shape to win big games. They have also beaten Barcelona in La Liga. I know that they lost some games that they should have never lost, but that doesn't count when you are up against Liverpool in the champions league. By the way it is also the same situation for Liverpool, they are even worse off in the premier league.

Manchester City's next match is against Leipzig. Leipzig is a relatively weaker team compared to Manchester City. So the possibility of Leipzig being eliminated in the round of 16 is very low. Moreover, Manchester City is in very good form right now. I would say Manchester City, Bayern Munich, and Real Madrid will be the favorites to win this season's Champions League.

In the end there is only one team that will win the Champions League this season and if you share three teams at once, it seems that it is very much and it will not be possible all three will win titles in the Champions League this season. For Manchester City who will travel to Leipzig's house, I don't think the match will not be so easy for Manchester City because Leipzig could have given an unexpected surprise by issuing his efforts as much as possible at home.

Manchester City will definitely defeat Leipzig for sure, Leipzig does not have the strength to challenge Manchester City.  This season I don't see Manchester City winning the champions league,  Bayern Munich is putting more effort towards winning the champions league.

In general, Manchester City did not get a trophy in the Champions League, but for this season I also could not be sure whether Manchester City would get it or not. Because in the Champions League all teams will almost do everything to win so there is no easy match to win here in the Champions League except by trying hard in every game that exists.

[Silence Scream]

I also don't doubt Napoli, so agree if the best option to bet falls on win Napoli. Although Frankfurt at home have a pretty good record so far, and Tottenham previously had difficulty to scoring at there, but Napoli on unstoppable and they will be very capable to winning.
I also doubt Real Madrid to win thropy, although this team has a lot of experience in the Champions league. At the moment also there are two teams that are doing well Napoli and Benfica, these two teams have very great records in their league, I think this both team will be the strongest competitor in Champions league.

Benfica is moving well until they meet a strong club on their way, I doubt that they will go far. And Real is still one of the contenders for victory, along with City and Bayern. PSG somehow disappointed me in the match with Bayern, they looked much weaker. I still don’t know what to expect from Napoli in the Champions League, let’s see how they play with Eintracht, after all, this is the playoffs and there are no weak opponents at this stage.

Of course, there are no weak opponents, but it should not be forgotten that Napoli played against very strong teams in Serie A.  In these matches, they only lost 1 defeat.  That's why this matchup will be a very difficult test for Eintracht Frankfurt.  I think Napoli will go to the next round comfortably because the players are playing at a high level this year.

liverpool vs madrid will be an exciting match because currently, Liverpool's performance is not in the best condition in the EPL, but I agree with what you said that Liverpool is a team that is difficult to predict. the team that will win is a team that has a strong winning mentality and madrid looks like it will come out victorious in this 1st leg.

Of course, there are no weak opponents, but it should not be forgotten that Napoli played against very strong teams in Serie A.  In these matches, they only lost 1 defeat.  That's why this matchup will be a very difficult test for Eintracht Frankfurt.  I think Napoli will go to the next round comfortably because the players are playing at a high level this year.

So far in the Champions League, only Liverpool has been able to beat Napoli, so Napoli's performance can still be said to be very stable and good, facing Frankfurt shouldn't be a big problem for Napoli, because Frankfurt is not the favorite team to win and their performances in their local league also not so good.

I support Liverpool in this matchup.

Even though at this time we all know Liverpool's performance is still not completely consistent, in the Champions League there will definitely be many who doubt their performance. Facing Real Madrid at least I think it will be a test in itself because when Liverpool face the current Madrid club maybe the results will be different. My point here is that Liverpool can still keep up with Real Madrid, because they are aware that their opponents are not only strong but this is the only way for Liverpool to exist, namely by providing maximum resistance.

Frankfurt is also not a weak team. those who made it into the top 16 were not due to luck. Napoli must also pay serious attention to this team. it could be that Frankfurt adopted a strategy that frustrated Osimhen.
however, the matches in the last 16 are not just a matter of the quality of the players or the H2H of the two teams. This is also based on tactics and strategies that will be used by opponents to get the victory.
Napoli will still be the favorites, but they can't underestimate Frankfurt.

Benfica already meet PSG 2 match and was able to draw, Benfica defense is quite difficult for a strong team like PSG, so I'm pretty sure for now Benfica will be strongest opponent of the strongest club in the UCL. I'm also a little disappointed with PSG, but in the first leg PSG striker wasn't that good condition because is in recovery after injury, in the second leg we might see surprises from the PSG main squad.

Not only that, sometimes the mentality of the players will also be tested in this Champions League, no matter how well they play in the domestic league but when they are not ready for the pressure that is in the Champions League, it will have a bad impact on them. Napoli have impressed in the domestic league and also in the group stage, but they have to be wary of Frankfurt, I agree that every team must be given special attention by whoever the opponent they face. Because it could be that the strategy they are going to demonstrate will run smoothly without any obstacles.

I don't too trust Liverpool performance this season,  it is just different from previous season.
 Liverpool struggles to deliver in most of their games . Even if real madrid are not in their best now I'm not still sure if Liverpool can win the game , maybe it will end in draws.

Beating napoli didn't mean if napoli was performing so bad. Napoli has become even better compared to when it was beaten by liverpool. Frankfurt is strong but it's not as strong napoli. Napoli is always getting win streak in serie a now while frankfurt was not performing so well in the domestic league like bundesliga. We do know the difference between both. Napoli is far better than frankfurt but frankfurt can't be underestimate caused by this team has ever kicked out barcelona from europa league last season.

[swogerino]

Looks like Napoli will be having an easy time in the Champions League against Eintracht Frankfurt.Frankfurt was great at the beginning of this season both in Bundesliga and Champions League and as such managed to come thus far in the Champions League but unfortunately their form is not one of the best recently having fallen down in the standings in Bundesliga.Napoli on the other side is on a huge run and is leading Serie A by 17 points to the second place and most likely will have no problems winning against Frankfurt.For me Napoli to qualify at a good odd is reasonable to bet a decent amount of money.

[Docnaster]

From the look of things, I think chelsea, Liverpool, PSG, are out of the champion league predicted winners picture. Its not too bad for PSG since they still lead the league one title race, and still has the hope of competing in the next year champion league competition, but I so much feel pity for chelsea and Liverpool who shall have nothing to fight for if kicked out of champion league, it will be so bad to see two top England clubs end the season like this.

[Yogee]

.... but I so much feel pity for chelsea and Liverpool who shall have nothing to fight for if kicked out of champion league, it will be so bad to see two top England clubs end the season like this.

They brought it to themselves so there's really no place for pity. Ending the season out of the CL spot isn't going to hurt them that much. They'll most likely be back in a year or two anyway. It's just a cycle that every team goes through.

..... For me Napoli to qualify at a good odd is reasonable to bet a decent amount of money.

Maybe a good idea to bet on a one-goal handicap then? I don't follow either team but could be a safer gamble following your comment.

I wouldn’t draw conclusions just yet on this three clubs. Liverpool is yet to play even though they might be going into this tie as the underdogs due to their recent performance but they are still a top team in Europe and UCL, and they could provide a set back should Real Madrid decide to slip up. As for both Chelsea and Dortmund they have the second leg to turn things around. The deficit isn’t that much and we have seen in the past teams turn those score lines around. In the last few minutes of Bayern against PSG match we could see how Mbappe came on to try to turn things around and if they could play the way they played in the last 10 minutes of that match then they could upset Bayern Munich.
Should PSG go out, then it will be a bad season regardless of winning their league. The main objective has been the UCL and with Messi, Mbappe and Neymar in their starling forms this should be there season to have a shot at it.
