UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

[Mimiklinton]

Aside the lost of Sadio Mane sadly to Bayern Munich,Liverpool defense have been a disaster this season,the players lack the right motivation to pick themselves up after going down on a goal,the defense is horrible with high line and can be very vulnerable on counter..To an extent also I feel Klopp have lost his swagger too..overall was a good play from Realmadrid

[bering]

After yesterday's performance from Real Madrid, it will be interesting to see how Leipzig play Manchester City and Inter play Porto today. I think surprises could happen in both matches, but I think the favourites are Manchester City and Inter. Although Porto have not lost 22 games in a row and also play very well away.

The odds for Manchester City was @1.89 and this is quite tempting to bet and previously Leipzig can able to beat Manchester City at home on season 2021 but this season was very different for Manchester City because they have Haaland and he can performing well not only in premier league and in this competition too Haaland has scoring 5 goals so obviously he will makes some different and help Manchester City to beat Leipzig today so for this match Manchester City win seem very good pick

On the other hand Inter has odds @1.73 and they are the favourite but i didn't fully trust with this odds because clearly Inter during this season cannot performing consistent and compared to their opponent obviously Porto is better than them and in my opinion Porto probably will going to win the match

It was an amazing match, to be honest when the game started Liverpool easily scored two goals and I was shocked because I couldn't believe Liverpool winning this game, while just a few minutes after that Real Madrid had a glorious comeback and thanks to Bezema and Vini Junior they scored five goals which make things hard for Liverpool for the next game against this team and they will need a miracle next time.

I think at the start Liverpool looked convincing and they would have won easily. But that changed, madrid are getting more and more determined to win. Liverpool finished the game they had five shots on goal and Madrid six. Remarkably Madrid played more effectively without much possession of the ball they were able to make five goals from six shots on goal. I think they are currently seeded to qualify for the top eight.

The game started with Liverpool on fire. Little did we know that they were about to be roasted. Insane to watch Real Madrid just calmly work their way back in down 2 goals 10 minutes in to the point where it seems they’ve dominated from the first whistle. Now up by more goals than they conceded. Honestly i am not surprised that Real Madrid won. They’re the king of come back. It’s going to be hard to stop them from winning the UCL again.

Real Madrid came back from 2-0 down, to beat Liverpool 5-2 following the first leg of the UCL match. They should be trusted until the final whistle. Thus, Real Madrid acted like they're used to do. There was a thought that Liverpool would take back all the goals they had received from Real Madrid previously, but we see how things turned out. With the win at Anfield, Real Madrid advances to the UCL quarterfinals. They're on their way to retaining the UCL trophy.

Come back become unusual habit from Real Madrid on every Champion League season after success won 2-5 from Liverpool last night, seems have been one place on quarter final become for Real Madrid and second leg just need draw or loss under two goals. I don't know what happen with Liverpool started match with impressive performance in the early minutes until success lead 2-0 from Real Madrid.

Vinicius Jr become man of the match after success scoring opening and second goals on the first half for Real Madrid and giving hope on second half how Madrid mentality come back and won with fantastic score 2-5.

[3meek]

Napoli are a real UCL title contender this year as Serie A title looks already locked in!

But what is happening with Liverpool ? I mean they had a clear advantage and again , Real proves again that they can't be count out from a game no matter what is the score.

Tonight , I'm not so sure about Inter and how they will perform as Porto are on a roll lately and even Juventus stood no chance against them.

Porto is having a season beyond expectations.  Although the authorities see Inter as favourites, Porto is not a team to be taken lightly.  Porto can make Inter experience Hell in Italy.  If Inter can score a goal in the first minutes, they will take the wind behind them and win the match easily.  According to the game flow, it will be a match that both teams can win.

Porto play very well in the Portuguese league, which is not as strong as the Italian one... There are some really serious teams there now, Benfica, Porto, Braga and Sporting... Agree that they are not as serious rivals as Milan, Lazio, Roma, Atalanta or Napoli... Inter have beaten all these teams in recent matches, so I think Porto will be very difficult today...

After my winning bet yesterday: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5408355.msg61798319#msg61798319

I will again make a double with the money I won.
On today's games I will bet on Porto and Manchester City to win, the two bets together will pay 9.87

I will put 20 USD, to win 197 (yesterday I won 139 USD)

I am very confident on the victory of Man. City, and not so much on Porto's, but I believe that the Portuguese team is in a better phase overall. Both are in 2nd place in the local championship.

FC Inter Milano - FC Porto

Porto had a large list of injured and doubtful players for this game, but according to the news channels in Portuguese that I had access to, the Porto coach traveled with the following players who were considered injured and doubtful:

Otávio, Evanilson, Uribe and Galeno and Fábio Cardoso

Veron and a few other players were not called up because they are still injured, so in a way Porto will come to this game as limitations, something that can be exploited by Milan, Porto has shown to have good defense, in most games the porto does not concede goals and manages to score at least 2 goals, unfortunately in their last game against Rio Ave they only managed to score 1 goal but did not concede a goal

about inter, it seems to me that inter in their last game did not put their best and most reliable goal scorer right from the start, that means that the coach was afraid of lautaro martinez having an injury and being a very important player the coach from inter preferred not to risk putting him right at the beginning of the game, but even when martinez entered he managed to score 1 goal, porto will have to be very careful with lautaro martinez, this is a game in which inter has a good attack, but has had weakness in defense at times, but I see inter winning this game



RB Leipzig - Manchester City FC

well, if it was last season I could be guaranteed that city would win this game easily, but city this season are inconsistent, and to make matters worse in this game they won't be able to count on Kevin de Bruyne, Aymeric Laporte, John Stones, so i think this is a hard game to predict the outcome unless i watch a few minutes of play maybe i could find some market to bet on, about RB Leipzig i see them as a team that cant beat strong teams in the bundesliga sometimes, while they shouldn't be fighting for the title and I doubt they're fighting to win the champions league, for them the goal is to get as far as they can

[minime0105]

Champions League action continues today as title favourites Man City take on German challengers RB Leipzig at the Red Bull Arena. While Pep Guradiola´s side arrives in Germany having lost ground in the Premier League title race with a disappointing 1:1 draw at Nottingham Forest, RB leipzig picked up a much needed three points with a convincing 3:0 Bundesliga win at Wolfsburg to keep them within one point of the CL qualification places. Much Goals are expected in this match from either teams.

[AverageGlabella]

Real Madrid made it harder then they needed to against Liverpool but at least they can rest players for the 2nd leg. I was not expecting them to win 5-2 and that might be important because I was concerned for Bayern and Real Madrid because of their injuries but Real Madrid can change their 1st team players and play a younger team against Liverpool in the 2nd leg without fear of getting knocked out. Bayern are still in trouble because they are forced to play their 1st team players and I think they might struggle against PSG.

Manchester City should beat RB leipzig. Kevin De Bruyne will run the game in the midfield and RB Leipzig do not have the players to compete with him.

It might not be as easy as you think, but of course Real Madrid have better chance of progressing to the quarter-finals after their fantastic win at Anfield. It's true that Real Madrid will struggle to maintain their record again this season as title winners, but it's always difficult to predict how they will fare in each round ahead.

Now I'm interested in waiting for another match between Leipzig vs Manchester City. Leipzig don't have high chance of winning even though they are playing at home, and that means Manchester City are the favorites to win. I have no doubts, of course the possibility of the away team winning is better because of the quality of the players.

Real Madrid are the champions and have won the Champions League more then any other team. They are 3 goals up against 1 of the worst teams in the Champions League. I am confident they will find it easy to win the 2nd leg and they can rest some of their 1st team players. Real Madrid will be at home which will help their confidence to. Liverpool play better at home and they struggle at away matches. Real Madrid do not need to attack in the 2nd leg and can counter attack when Liverpool go all out for the win.

Manchester City have not had the best of seasons in the Premier League but they should still beat Leipzig who have lost a lot of their best players recently.

[Razmirraz]

Snip.

Amazing start from Liverpool but it all turned rather sour quite quickly. Great goal initially from Darwin Nunez though. That flick would be one of the best goals in Champions league this season. Madrid look stronger than ever now.

Real Madrid extraordinary comeback after falling two goals behind Liverpool made Ancelotti team very comfortable when they played the second leg at the Santiago Bernabeu. The 5-2 score was disastrous for Liverpool, the results obtained at Anfield made Liverpool efforts to go to the quarter-finals very difficult, they had to win with a four goal difference.
Liverpool who are not in their best form, will obviously find it difficult to score against Real Madrid four times without reply, the result at Anfield has given a bright spot on which team will move on to the quarter-finals.

The conditions will indeed be a little difficult especially since there are always surprises that can happen especially in the top 8 but indeed with the current conditions there is actually a real hope for Madrid even though it still needs a lot of effort for that.
As for Manchester City now they will still try to make this a win and I will probably bet 2 goals in this match even though Leipzig is still very good for a dark horse but I don't feel this is a barrier.

[makishart]

It was a good betting round for me from the last matches. I'm not so keen on putting a bet tonight. City and Inter are heavy favorites and with decent odds on ML too but I'm just skeptical since I am clueless on how their opponents may perform. I'm thinking of double chance but odds are just too low for me. Not worth the risk.

Seeing the track record of porto and leipzig in the domestic league and i think that leipzign has pretty bad performance. Porto is still as good as benfica. It seems like that the match between inter against porto is much more riskier compared with manchester city against leipzig. I personally thought that if betting city has more chance to win caused by leipzig is not doing well in bundesliga. Leipzig was also losing against berlin. The match between city against liepzig is quite easy to predict.

The thing that makes me feel doubt about city is city will play against leipzig without its best player de bruyne. We do know that how big contribution from de bruyne for city in EPL. De bruyne is actually needed by city in UCL.

I think that was also a great comeback from Real Madrid. But it’s Real Madrid! That’s what they do. Despite being down by two goals just in the first half, they didn’t relent and went ahead to win the game comfortably. There’s the  distinction between the domestic league and the champions league.
Liverpool’s flame was quickly extinguished. Personally, I don’t see Liverpool winning the game in the second leg of the game. Liverpool could hold Real Madrid to a draw. And I don’t think a lot of goals would be scored like in the first leg.

The previous season was also the same as Real Madrid had a comeback after they lost at the start and in the end we were able to see how Real Madrid's game was so extraordinary when it was in the UCL competition, this we know and that Real Madrid still deserves to win another title.

It is very difficult for Liverpool to win at home to Real Madrid while it is difficult to score 3-0 without reply for Liverpool because even then there will be extra time on the other hand I believe Real Madrid will definitely secure another victory.

Just before the Liverpool vs Real Madrid match started, I said that it wasn't funny at all that the bookies underestimated us in the Champions League even though it was at Anfield. Obviously it was a big mistake they made, but it doesn't matter because I hope lots of gamblers enjoy the win. It's up to who underestimates, they only feel the consequences. lol

Right now we have to quickly refocus on the league match against Atletico Madrid as derby match. The victory at Liverpool must make the squad more confident to win this home match. There is not much time to rest, Real Madrid really need to focus on securing 3 more points.

Real Madrid is very superior and able to turn things around, Reall Madrid, the king of comeback. Real Madrid's mentality against Liverpool in the Champions League is extraordinary and rarely does a team do that at Anfield, trailing 2:0 the Real Madid players didn't even hang their heads and managed to turn the score around to 2-5 because of Real Madrid's UCL DNA.

Manchester City should beat RB leipzig. Kevin De Bruyne will run the game in the midfield and RB Leipzig do not have the players to compete with him.

Real Madrid would never contemplate of playing a younger team in their second leg against Liverpool, recall Liverpool always create upset and comeback might overturn the 5-2 deficit, it happened in 2019 UCL when they lost 3-0 against Barcelona and later overturned the lost to an emphatic 4-0 win at Anfield, though the team might be off-form however I don't think Ancelloti will gamble with his team selection, Liverpool lost it by conceding many goals against their opponent in Anfield, it's will be a big and insurmountable task to defeat Real Madrid at Bernabau.

Real Madrid are expert in coming back from losses, if you check last season they did it successfully against PSG and they also did it against Manchester City and they did it against Chelsea. This season they did it against Liverpool so they know how to come back from losses in Champions League and that is how they will continue to do it in as much as those experienced footballers are still in the club to continue to spice up the club.

I don't think that Liverpool have any chance to qualify for the second round, they blew up their chances in the first half of the first leg when they wete leading with two goals
