UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

If you look at the condition of the actual team, Benfica is also very comfortable now because with an aggregate of 2-0 and the second leg will be played at home, this will clearly be a real favourite.
Talking about Bayern-PSG actually in this case I still feel Bayern will win again in the second leg this time.
What is certain is that in the second leg, their match will be more open than before.

In the match between PSG and Bayern Munich, Bayern Munich has a higher chance to win. Because the balance of PSG team is not right, the team has great problems from midfielders to defense. On the other hand, Neymar Jr.'s injury will have a great impact on the team's attack.

I think it's not only about balance but indeed in every way PSG lost except in terms of players.
A torn ligament injury was really not expected and of course this is also another obstacle for PSG.
It's possible to play it safe too but with the current conditions I think Bayern when playing at home will be more all out now.

[Fesatmas]

Liverpool will probably play better then in the 1st leg because Real Madrid will start a weaker 1st team to try and prevent injuries to their most important players but Liverpool are not in good form and are in crisis so I do not expect them to win if Real Madrid put out a weaker team. 3 goal cushion away from home is too much to expect from this Liverpool team who struggle to keep clean sheets so I expect Real Madrid to get at least 1 goal in the 2nd leg.

I can't trust Liverpool now, they have been a very difficult team to trust. In the Premier League they still haven't been able to find their best form of play, in the Champions League although there was hope after they were 2 goals ahead, but in the end they couldn't prevent the 5 goals Real Madrid created. It is not impossible that the Santiago Bernabeu will be the place for their defeat to Real Madrid for the umpteenth time.

Regardless of success Manchester City, they only get a draw in the first match of the round 16 of the Champions League. They get these results from a team like Leipzig, what will happen if they meet other strong teams like Paris Saint Germain, Real Madrid, or even Bayern Munich. That's a concern for fans
Regardless of whether Manchester City's performance improves or not when playing home match later, it is still a mystery even though previously Manchester City have satisfactory statistics in home match, surprises could happen in the second leg of Manchester City vs Leipzig.

Not sure what happened to Manchester City during this game because as far as we can see from their performance in the premier league and their position in the league they could have had a high chance to beat Leipzig in the first game. Leipzig is the 4th team in their league and I didn't expect to see this team being able to stop a team like Manchester City, however, the game was in Red Bull Arena and they benefit while playing at home against Manchester City.

Maybe we should take Napoli seriously in this tournament. In the group they also played impressively and if you look at how they are doing in the league, they are the best team in Italy. If you are the best team in Italy with great force majeure, then you can also win the CL, right? I think City would have a really hard time against Napoli. I think maybe Napoli is even better at the moment. Napoli also won the first match comfortably, so we will definitely see that in the quarterfinals. And with the draw anything can happen once. It would be nice if Napoli would already see against City of Munchen.

[AakZaki]

I think in the second leg later Manchester City and Bayern Munich still have a chance to qualify for the next round. But for two other English clubs such as Chelsea and Spurs will fall in this round. Maybe both Chelsea and Spurs still haven't found their best form in this competition, but what is certain is that I hope the second leg match will be very exciting and will provide unexpected surprises.

What struck me off was Chelsea vs Dortmund. Dortmund's 1-0 win in the first leg does not guarantee exactly they will continue. Chelsea still have plenty of opportunities to make things happen. Because the second leg they will play at Stamford Bridge. If you look at the game during the First Leg, it should be the second leg that Chelsea were able to win. They can play well, they are capable of possession of the ball. I hope Kante can already play because there is still a two-week gap left. I think Jao Felix will again be Potter's mainstay player.

It is very difficult for Liverpool to turn things around in the second leg later, moreover they will play at Santiago Bernabue which is the headquarters for Real Madrid. I hope there will be many surprises by Liverpool in the second leg later, it's not impossible for them to turn things around the same as they did for Barcelona. I can only pray for the best results for Liverpool. 3 goals is a very difficult margin, but hope the magic is in their favor, fingers crossed.

About Liverpool chances in the second leg if i am not mistaken the rule for away goals has been removed since last season and because Liverpool lost with scores 5-2 from Real Madrid which mean if Liverpool want to qualified i think they should be win at least with 4 goals margin or more and against big team such as Real Madrid i think it just like mission impossible for Liverpool and indeed on season 2019 Liverpool has been make epic comeback from Barcelona with win 4-0 after lose 3-0 in the first leg but the current situations were very different for them even in my opinion probably Liverpool will lost again at Real Madrid home ground

[Cookdata]

Manchester City is a very strong team. Pep Guardiola's second successful team is Manchester City. Most importantly, there is a great understanding among the players of the team due to which the team is able to perform exceptionally well.

Regardless of success Manchester City, they only get a draw in the first match of the round 16 of the Champions League. They get these results from a team like Leipzig, what will happen if they meet other strong teams like Paris Saint Germain, Real Madrid, or even Bayern Munich. That's a concern for fans

Leipzig now stands in fourth position in their domestic League and also finished fourth last season before advancing to the Champions Leagues, proving that they are formidable and for them to take on Manchester City should not surprise anyone, it was a fair match to be honest. The same Paris Saint-German team lost to Bayern in the first leg despite fielding their whole squad, and to say Mane was absent from the game was more gratifying to watch.

I'm not too satisfied with matches that ended with a draw and a goal difference, it will be difficult to predict the next moves and what teams will pull out next but Real Madrid against Liverpool has no doubt about the team that will qualify to the next stage.

In the last game they lost with a 5-2 result which was not good at all for Liverpool and their coach Klopp because I think time after time he is getting near to the exit doors of Liverpool because of his performance, on the other hand, the last game was in Anfield and Liverpool played this match at home against Real Madrid that's why we excited more from them, while this time they have to play in Santiago Bernabéu and they need three goals.

I don't really want to admit this but with the current conditions Liverpool really can't do much.
Now their condition is very depressed in the Champions League and in the EPL so indeed with conditions like this the possibility of Klopp leaving will be even greater.
He's a good coach but when it doesn't lift Liverpool out of a slump it's still a failure no matter what.

I have to say after seeing Real Madrid in action, maybe they are not leading La Liga like they did for a while now, and they may "look" worse compared to last year, but after the first game I can say that they are actually still the leading candidate to win.

I should remind myself every year that whenever Real plays in UCL, they are a candidate to win it, sure they don't win it every time, they won like 14 out of 40+ seasons, which means most likely they don't, but looking at the current roster and what it has achieved? Nobody has won this many UCL titles in their entire career, there are so many teams that didn't win a title as much as some players here, it's wild.

Can't expected with consistency performance from Manchester City in Primer League after held draw by RB Leipzig on Champion League and difficult predicting about that match have been draw. Second leg become crucial because the fourth Bundesliga standing team still have chance lead to next round.

Manchester City have benefit on second leg and seems has potential for winning the match, but RB Leipzig is unpredictable team and any potential make it surprised after success held in draw for the first leg match.

You overestimated Manchester City's current strength. They are not in particularly good form and Leipzig have actually been playing well for weeks, so it was foreseeable that it would be difficult for City. In the second leg, however, Pep will definitely use proper tactics and City will advance, but Leipzig is not without a chance!

This has always been the case, that most people always overestimate Manchester City. Maybe because of the influence of English media, but when it comes to the European league, they are just a bunch of brilliant individual players with no proper coordination. Any team with good coordination can beat them on an average day.

I will boldly predict that Manchester City will not Lift the Champions's League trophy again this season.

If City continue to play dull ball control (while ignoring Haaland) and Leipzig defend well then I assume the game will end 0-0 and shootout. The only "fun" scenario I see for this game is if City score first and Leipzig are forced to go ahead. As we have seen, they know how to do it and then both teams will have chances to score a goal. If Leipzig scores first, then it will close in the same way and we will not see anything interesting.

[Pulsar77]

It is too early to talk about Manchester City's championship chance for me. I need to see their performance against one of the title contenders first to have a clearer opinion. I don't expect them to have as big difficulties as they had in the first leg against Leipzig this time. I accept that the result of the first leg was surprising. Manchester City just tried to keep the 1-0 advantage to the end which they shouldn't have done. If they kept applying high pressure over their opponent then the final result would have been different.

I expect them to do this in both halves this time and eliminate their opponent nicely.

I agree with this. Man City seemed like focusing on ball control and possession, but they didn't make any sharp shots on target. whereas they have Haaland but he didn't have many chances to goal. Well, Man City must manage much better tactics to overcome the problems and make victory against Leipzig in the second leg moreover they will be playing at home. But, they must not deny the fact that Leipzig is also a strong club with many surprises during playing. They also have strong defenses. This will be very exciting to watch how Man City can overcome this problem and win in order to advance to the next round.

It is not too early to talk about Manchester City championship in CL. This is because they are among the most informed clubs in every champions league seasona and as matter of fact they won the best team last season. So Manchester City and Real Madrid are always the favourites but City has been so unlucky

It's difficult for Liverpool now though indeed when it comes to surprises they did the same thing decades ago in the Champions League but of course it's different now than it was in the past.
With their condition which is still not good, it becomes more difficult and indeed I think 3 goals or more against Madrid is very difficult to do, especially when at Barnebeu.

Best team for what? There are so many big clubs. Manchester city may do nothing when this face another club like bayern or real madrid. It seems like that city was not favorite in this season. It was not even able to beat leipzig in the first leg.
That means the chance for leipzig to be qualified for champion league is still very big at this moment. I think that will be real madrid who will be winning UCL for this season. Real's performance looks so impressive at this moment. I would not be surprised if real madrid will be able to winning the trophy. It's too early to talk about city to win UCL while there are so many big clubs at this moments.

One way or another, it is going to be extremely interesting how that is going to play out. Haaland is often mentioned and he scores all the time, but is he a guarantee to win it all? No he is not! I am excited to see how this is going to develop.

It is still a home game for Manchester City. For Leipzig it is most important to not concede an early goal. That would wreck their game strategy so much because nobody wants to play against a Manchester City that is waiting for counter attacks.

What struck me off was Chelsea vs Dortmund. Dortmund's 1-0 win in the first leg does not guarantee exactly they will continue. Chelsea still have plenty of opportunities to make things happen. Because the second leg they will play at Stamford Bridge. If you look at the game during the First Leg, it should be the second leg that Chelsea were able to win. They can play well, they are capable of possession of the ball. I hope Kante can already play because there is still a two-week gap left. I think Jao Felix will again be Potter's mainstay player.

Joan félix is finding a very good partnership with Enzo Fernandez and it shows on the pitch since both players has already combined to score once with other times the goals been cancelled due to Joan félix been offside. I don't doubt Chelsea over turning the result at Stanford bridge, we're capable of doing exactly that. Dortmund didn't even play that well in the first leg ro deserve the win they got, Chelsea played better but lack players capable of taking it upon themselves to win a game for the team. Dortmund goal was a solo one that resulted from Chelsea not been able to capitalize on the corner kick they had.

Chelsea in the second leg just has to be more clinical to win the game. We should be scoring first and then the Dortmund side will be forced into coming out then we can get ourselves more goals to seal the deal and progress to the quarter finals. I just want to see what Graham Potter team selection will belike because from the players he decides to use then we can get an idea on how the match should turn out.
