UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

[Cookdata]

Manchester City were really surprising against Leipzig in the first leg. Their performance in the second half especially was really unsatisfying and that was why they got a draw there. But in Etihad I don't think Leipzig will be able to stand much chance against them. I don't expect to watch the same Manchester City this time. Guardiola would warn his players about their mistakes in the previous match and we would see them showing a solid performance this time.

Leipzig aren't a big obstacle for them. The real challenge would be against Real Madrid for example. We all must be remembering that legendary draw last season.

Leipzig would not be a problem, but it depends on how Manchester City performs in the second leg. Leipzig has an excellent domestic league record, which is why they were able to protect even after Manchester City scored the opening goal in the first half. We don't know the outcome, but we can anticipate what will happen next based on which teams participated.
Real Madrid does not appear to have any barriers for the time being, unlike the previous season when they had to face strong opponents and scale through, Liverpool would not make it out, and even if Chelsea and Dortmund make it out, none of them can compete with Madrid.

RB Leipzig could only draw in the first leg which was held at home. So of course I also think in the second leg RB Leipzig will have more difficulties. because Manchester city is sure to play it all out in this match. But RB Leipzig cannot be underestimated either. because they seem to have succeeded in silencing the flow of attack built by Manchester city in the first leg. Even Haaland couldn't do much in the first leg.

The level of hard work that is being put in place by Leipzig in the first meeting of the Champions League between them and Manchester City needs to increase this time around.
This is because Leipzig is coming to England to meet Manchester City in their home. And also in the first meeting, Kevin de bruyne was not in the fixture which made it very difficult for Manchester City to control the midfield and to connect Haaland.
But this time around Kevin is available and playing from home.

With the way Chelsea and Tottenham go about the games they play can we say they are not going to qualify for the next level Tottenham are still without the coach due to illness.
Ac Milan are more ready for the next level they look set and put. I have followed the training section well

Milan won the first match 1-0. Tottenham should definitely show their strength in the home game. Milan have been weak in Serie A lately. We saw this once again with his defeat in the last match. Tottenham has a solid striker line. Kane and Son are the strongest players for Tottenham. At the moment, these forwards are their biggest trump card to pass the round.

[rendravolt]

It's now a problem to all the England teams in the champion league round of 16. Non was able to record a win in the first leg.
Manchester city whom I thought was going to have an easy qualification to the next phase is giving me cold feet on their ability.  The more difficult circumstance is chelsea who will have nothing to talk if successfully sent away by Borussia Dortmund. With Dortmund current form, it will be so difficult for Chelsea to turn things round.

There is no doubt that Manchester City is the only team from England who will qualify for the next round even though they are now on the same aggregate as Leipzig. But for Chelsea I have no more hope for this club considering they are still slumped in the domestic league, but last night's match Chelsea was able to win with a narrow score but that was not enough to compensate for Dortmund's performance this season which was so extraordinary. So I think Chelsea will be eliminated in the second leg later against Dortmund, even though Chelsea are the hosts but that is not a strong guarantee that can make them safe.

Chelsea secured victory in the Premier League against Leeds United yesterday. However, the Chelsea team also has a great influence in the Champions League. Although they have lost some matches, they still have a great chance to do well in the Champions League.

Chelsea was securing victory by playing monoton tactic. Potter is not a creative coach that can use various tactic for its club while chelsea can be called as a team with so many players. Chelsea has around 35 players in total. That means if the coach was so smart and chelsea can use various formation but potter keeps use the same strategy over and over.

We can see that from the statistic.



Dortmund is actually above compared with chelsea in all of things except the duration of ball possession which is not an important thing but dortmund is far leading compared with chelsea in total goals that already made.

It's clear that although if the next game will be happening in stamford bridge and chelsea is not become may favorite to win the match as dortmund able to perform better.

I think that we shall take a look at the performance curve from both of team.

Chelsea's curve



dortmund's curve

As you can see that if chelsea is showing down trend while dortmund is still able to keep its performance to sustain. That's why picking dortmund is far more reasonable compared with chelsea.

Champions League is event of surprises and shocking results, so first leg match between these two teams were also same with after having early lead Manchester City play second half in defensive mod which was surely main reason for having ending of this match into draw with RB Leipzig is surely currently having not good form with they are on verger of losing their fourth spot into Bundesliga as right now all top teams are doing good performance but due to poor form of Union Berlin and Freiburg are giving them some benefit.

Now in second leg, most chances we will have Manchester City as full aggressive team which will try to destroy opponent and have the good number of goals as they play against Newcastle United in last game, hopefully things could be normal for them, and they will easily qualify for the quarterfinal without any problem if we have no any surprise in this match as it's culture of this Champions League and it's history.

The Manchester City team is in a good position in the Champions League. However, if Manchester City is able to perform in the Champions League like the English Premier League, then the team will be a great prospect.

The appearance of Chelsea and Dortmund in the domestic league is very contrasting. The Blues seemed to have not found its best performance until now. But the victory over Leeds and the host factor made them a favorite in the 2nd leg.

But Chelsea's steps will be a little limp because the Blues have to lose his tough defender Thiago Silva for six weeks because of injury. That means, the Brazilian veteran defender will be absent when Chelsea hosted Boeurusia Dortmund. In addition, Potter was also faced with problems on the front lines, Chelsea attackers were still unable to appear fierce in front of the opponent's goal. If you want to qualify for the quarterfinals of the final Potter must be smart in managing the formation to cover up every deficiency that is being experienced.

Chelsea's win against Leeds United is surely good before this big encounter but still not convincing because their attack is still lacking and have not enough firepower to score goals against team like Borussia Dortmund which is having 12 matches winning streak in Germany, and they are just having first win against struggling team with margin of 1 - 0 if they want to have better result against Borussia Dortmund then surely they need to be fierce in attack and strategy could be aggressive because without this positive results are not coming, and they can face elimination from this event as well with they are not having any chance for reaching into top four for the Premier League which is surely big negativity for them in coming season.

Graham Potter is having amazing performance at Brighton but sadly right now under serious trouble even Chelsea management spend huge funds for having quality players but still results are not satisfactory for them and if they have exit from Champions League then most chances he could be sacked.

Well said, Manchester City has always been a good contender but they need more effort to achieve the glory you are attributing to them. For now, I see Bayern, Napoli and Liverpool ahead and might do better, while Man City should try not to draw again as they did often in the tournament. I expect them to be fierce in their attacks henceforth as only winning matches is what will help them at this juncture.

The round 16 Champions League first round was not a good one for the English clubs. Apart from Manchester City who managed to get a draw others lost.  However, every other club in England still has good chances to qualify in the second leg except Liverpool.
Chelsea can easily get a goal against Dortmund and they will battle it out.
Tottenham can put up a fight against Milan and they would also get the results so it is not over for them. It is only Liverpool that I don't believe can survive against Madrid

One of the personalities of the Manchester City team is the team coach Pep Guardiola, he has been able to make the team the best by training the players with great techniques. Just as Manchester City is performing well in the English Premier League, it has the ability to perform in the Champions League as well.

Yeah, first leg matches with mostly teams were on back foot and have no good performance which allow them for having matches without pressure Liverpool is already out of the competition with now it's difficult task for them to overcome from this deficit of 5 - 2, but other three clubs are having some chance for going through into next round specially Manchester City and Tottenham because I have been feeling these both were better sides and also having good record at home which can allow them for having better results in second leg matches but like Liverpool, Chelsea is also facing trouble and their losing streak just end against Leeds United which was also not impressive they need to be very tough against Dortmund if they want to stay for any positive change, but things are not favoring them, and they are also can face early exit.

[Webetcoins]

Rumoured that Zidane is around London just if Graham Potter gets sacked to finalize a deal with Chelsea for thr management of the club, he can't handle a team like Chelsea but what would be best would be Paris St Germans.
They had a win today but can they also do same against Borrussia Dortmund of Germany, they might hold them down during the first half but they're to pray same luck they have against Leeds United stay with them still next week during the champions league.
Wesley Fofana to the rescue for Chelsea, which states that in the month of March Chelsea has no game lost. They've plans to march forward

Mostly sports journalists creates rumors like these for the personal sack with most chances there is nothing positive in this rumor and Zidane is not going to accept job like this as currently he is favorite for the PSG next job which is also going to have chance for him in summer because PSG main target is Champions League and with their current form it is looking they are going to have another early exit which will create room for the Zidane in next season and after having not chance for the France national team he will surely go to accept this job instead of having Chelsea which is currently having big mess-up after arrival of Graham Potter and sack of Thomas Tuchel which was doing impressive job and now bad decision is surely having big impact on this all for the Chelsea in next season as well.

The Manchester City team is in a good position in the Champions League. However, if Manchester City is able to perform in the Champions League like the English Premier League, then the team will be a great prospect.

The second leg will be a little easier for Manchester City because previously in the first leg Manchester City were able to draw at home to Leipzig. Meanwhile, in the second leg, Manchester City will appear at home with enormous motivation to win the match and that will make Leipzig's chances of winning the match a little tougher. Although unexpected surprises can also occur in the second leg match at home to Manchester City.

Although unexpected surprises can also occur in the second leg match at home to Manchester City.

Even though they will play at home in the second leg later which is an advantage for them, they cannot reduce their vigilance towards Leipzig, because the visitors will also be motivated to beat Manchester City to be able to advance to the next round. I really regret that Manchester City couldn't win in the first leg, because from what I saw they were very capable of doing it, and also if only Pep had rotated his players to increase their chances of winning.

Real Madrid are known for come backs in the Champions league and are the team to win the most champion leagues. They are made for the champions league but I do not think they are at their strongest and beating Liverpool is not hard these days. Brighton in the Premier League recently beat them by 3 goals and Liverpool have been knocked out of every other cup competition. Real Madrid are good but they are not as good as previous seasons so if we are going to have a new winner this might be the season because Real Madrid will correct their problems at the end of the season when they can buy new players.

Real Madrid have always been impressing in the Champions league games, they could be performing bad in the la liga and put up a good show the next week in the Champions league. It just shows how much they value the Champions league trophy and this season they are doing it again. At this point, Real Madrid don't seem to have much hope of winning the la liga so all focus will be channelled to the Champions league.

Chelsea won't be among team in the premier league that will be participating for next season, Chelsea performance is not up to champions league standard. Next season will be used to revive and strengthen the team. Chelsea has lots of work to do to improve the team in the way it used to be in the past.

Real Madrid has a champion mentality when it comes to their performances in the Champions League. And this is of course not a problem even though it is not so ideal in La Liga but still, but second place is still enough to make Barcelona not always safe. The Champions League is still a breath of fresh air for Real Madrid and the game against Liverpool will be an easy walk. Apart from having capital from leg 1 at least at home matches it will benefit Madrid.

The gap between chelsea to the top 4 is too far. It will not able to be chased by chelsea although if chelsea will always be winning the game until the end of season. Chelsea is now facing a difficult situation. The match against dortmund will come very soon. The performance of chelsea was still the same. The goal against leeds can't be considered a good thing to take a conclusion whether chelsea has been entering into the right track or not.

After saw the match against leeds and im not feeling satisfied with the performance from chelsea. Chelsea was losing its way to making goal through used the team work. The ability that already owned by chelsea to make fast counter attack already disappeared.
The goal that already made by fofana was actually lucky goal. Will chelsea play with the same strategy like when it was against leeds united?

It's true that only Liverpool is currently the worst luck among other English clubs. But even if Liverpool can win at the Santiago Bernabeu they have to at least score 3 goals and of course Real Madrid will not let that happen. Jurgen Klopp seems to be ready with the results received later if Liverpool cannot qualify for the next round of the UCL.
