UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

[Slow death]

Liverpool able to score 7 goals against Manchester United, does Liverpool can able to score at least 4 goals to Real Madrid? it's a hard task for Liverpool because the match will happen on Real Madrid's home. I think Liverpool can able to beat Real Madrid, but I don't think they will qualify to the next round since the aggregate points is really big with 3 goals difference. Real Madrid's defenders are better than Manchester United, so I believe Liverpool will not score a lot goals.

because of liverpool's success in winning 7-0 over man utd, I see the chance of liverpool's victory against madird going up to 32% but I myself am not sure of that percentage

in the local league, madrid's performance is declining and they are even being held to a draw by real betis but Madrid's winning mentality in the champions league cannot be lost, this is evident from madrid's success in crushing liverpool 5-2 in the first leg that has passed

real madrid's game against liverpool won't be held until this month, there are still many games ahead of them until their game in the champions league, so this liverpool victory should not be seen as if liverpool had already recovered and that could beat real madrid, the bookmakers are placing real madrid as the favorite, but if in the next games real madrid continues with this bad performance and liverpool continues to win the games then this advantage of real madrid could be changed to a liverpool advantage

We think Real Madrid's Club Mentality is far superior to Liverpool in the Champions League, although we realize that Real Madrid has lost a bit of performance in Laliga which so far has not been able to oust Barceona from the top of the standings, despite Liverpool's victory over Mancehster United in the Premier League yesterday I think will not reduce the mentality and performance of the Real Madrid Team itself, even though this is an equally important match for both of them, of course they will develop the best possible strategy for the meeting on March 16.

when real madrid plays with all these guys in the picture:



real madrid becomes very strong, they play very well in attack, although their defense at a certain point becomes a disaster, now when real madrid in attack do not play with all their players what happens is that they cannot score goals, but for the case of this game i think that real madrid will already have all their best players well, maybe that's why real madrid is being seen as a favorite in this game, in any case i don't see how liverpool will be able to move to another phase

[Inwestour]

Likewise with Real Madrid, even though they have drawn with Real Betis in their own domestic league, it does not mean that Real Madrid will be bad in the Champions League in this second leg. Besides, the second leg match for Real Madrid will take place at their own turf so it will be a little easier for Real Madrid, especially since Real Madrid had already won the first leg at home to Liverpool.

Betis was lucky that Real Madrid didn't score, but Real Madrid deserved to win. I understand that Liverpool may be in a good mood after such a confident victory, but that won't change the fact that they lost 2 - 5 to Real Madrid and now they need to win back three goals difference.

It's impossible against Real Madrid, no matter where this game is at home or away, I'm not even sure that Real Madrid will let Liverpool win this match.

PSG's situation is also very difficult, I don't remember when Bayern last lost at home, but one thing I know for sure it was a long time ago. But in any case, PSG have a better chance than Liverpool for the quarter-finals.

Let's see what will happen in that game, Liverpool winning Manchester United 7-0 doesn't me they can win Real Madrid with that big margin, Real Madrid are not in good form this season but when it comes to the champions League they top up their performance, Liverpool are getting their self back, in terms of their performance, I believe they are going to win Real Madrid but is not going to be an easy game for them. They have to put on that performance they put on against Manchester United for them to win Real Madrid.

Madrid's strength with United is different. Liverpool may have a chance to surprise Madrid with their improved form. and probably will score some goals. but the match at home to Madrid will not be easy for Liverpool. Moreover, this is UCL, Madrid is very strong when they are in UCL matches. Liverpool already felt it in the first leg. and the second leg, maybe it will be even tougher for Liverpool.

PSG manager, Christophe Galtier, has recently announced that Neymar will be missing the second leg of their Champions League match against Bayern Munich. It's a disappointment news for PSG. Bayern Munich is a tough opponent, and they are already ahead in the first leg. It's unfortunate to see Neymar absent yet again due to his injury. It seems like injuries have significantly affected Neymar's career. Despite this, I truly love Neymar's presence on the field. I hope that Messi and Mbappe can step up in his absence and make a difference, or else it will be very challenging for PSG. Summarizing their recent performance against Nantes, Messi and Mbappe seemed to work better without Neymar. Therefore, I believe their chances of beating Bayern will significantly improve. But, rest we'll see.

There is no doubt about Neymar is one of the best players in PSG, but I have feeling in presence of Mbappé and Messi PSG still have chance to give surprise in this match against Bayern Munich which is also having few issues in this season regarding their attackers so things still under PSG control, and they are not out of the competition even have setback in first leg match but this score 1 - 0 is manageable for them.

With mostly Neymar is having injuries issue after his arrival here at PSG and the performance was never been ideal with Mbappé and Messi duo are really have enough quality and ability to bring positive results for this club, and now they are surely going to give their best for having positive result from this match after securing their Ligue 1 spot at top Bayern Munich is currently also at the top, but they have pressure of Borussia Dortmund which is also sharing this spot with same points.

At least with yesterday's victory over Manchester United it can add to their confidence and mentality in the second leg later when they meet Real Madrid, I know with an aggregate of 2-5 it is very difficult for Liverpool to win it but anything can happen if Liverpool's players have good faith high then I make sure Klopp's team must be able to win 3 goals without reply so that they have a long extra time.

Indeed, for Real madrid in the Champions League and in LaLiga it was different, but that's what I said maybe a lot of people thought that Liverpool would be eliminated but I believe that even if there is a small chance for Liverpool there is still hope.

I agree with you. United and Real Madrid are completely different. Real Madrid coach Ancelotti is a very experienced coach for the Champions League platform. And he knows very well how to counter a big team like Liverpool. In the first leg, we saw the performance of Real Madrid. Madrid dominated the entire match. Real Madrid won 5-2. And so in the next match, if Madrid plays a bit defensively and tries to draw the match, they will be able to qualify for the quarter-finals. Liverpool also seems to have no hope for the Champions League after a poor first-leg performance.

The reality is that Neymar does get injured quite often and of course, with the injuries he experiences so often, Neymar's performance is also inconsistent. But if we relate it to a chemistry, then I can still say that Neymar always has good chemistry with his team-mates, so whoever becomes his partner on the field, of course, Neymar will still be able to play well.

But yes, even though Neymar cannot be played in the second leg later, I think that still won't be a barrier for PSG to stick to their goal of winning. Although the results may be different, what is clear is that their players certainly have good morale because they have a star squad.

[darewaller]

What happened in England yesterday should not give us confidence that Liverpool can resist and beat Real Madrid in the returning leg of champions League. The seven goals scored by Liverpool does not happen every time in England.
Snd you can not score Real Madrid that amount of goals in Champions League so I still believe that Liverpool cannot come back in that very much against Real Madrid .

The best for Liverpool is to try and maintain this form in order to be in the English Premier League top four. And be able to come back to Champions League by next season.

Yeah, playing in Premier League and having match against Real Madrid in Champions League completely different things and Liverpool can't do performance like this at Santiago Bernabéu which is home of Real Madrid but now here situation is completely change after match against Manchester United with these hopes are high for their next seasons Champions League spot so if now they are going to have exit from this it's going to be ok for them but most chances now results could be interesting because Liverpool win against Manchester United is surely going to have big impact on their performance in coming days as well.
Real Madrid is surely darling team in Champions League, and they are also struggling in La Liga but in this event they are still had ability to perform more than expectations which is their trademark.

Maybe no one thought that Liverpool could silence Man United in that match with a fantastic score. But when it comes to Real Madrid, so far we can see Real Madrid's performance in the domestic league is very worrying, but when Real Madrid was in the UCL competition, the atmosphere was definitely very different and that proves that Real Madrid is the King of Europe until now. In the second leg, apart from Real Madrid having the advantage as hosts, the support from the fans is one of the important things and that can be a good motivation to add aggregate points to make it safer to qualify for the next UCL round.

You don't beat a team 4-0 that easily in UCL, or any other type of 4 goal difference, or not even 3 goal difference if we are talking about Real Madrid, I can't check now, but check to see when was the last time Real lost to a team with 3 goal difference, it must be sometime long long ago.

All in all Liverpool had a 7 goal win against Liverpool and Madrid had a draw against Betis, which all looks like there is a possibility but there is none. Real is a whole another beast when it comes to UCL, they may end up second in the league, but win UCL at the same time, could look like two different type of club and that is actually what I believe will happen.

Confidence in Liverpool has grown even more after their impressive victory in humiliating Manchester United in the Premier League week. But their big win was inseparable from the declining performance of Manchester United. Their victory over Manchester United will make Real Madrid prepare even more carefully for their match, because then Real Madrid will realize that there is great potential that Liverpool brings.

Liverpool playing a beautiful game fies not guarantee that they have improved and can play better than real madrid.  I'm not yet convinced by Liverpool performance against Manchester United that they are back strong.  Liverpool this season is not stable,  sometimes they play pretty good and sometimes their performance is terrible .

[Pulsar77]

Manchester City surprised people by drawing with Leipzig in the first leg. I'm pretty sure there were so many people who lost their bet on Manchester City there. But I won't be expecting a similar scenario for Manchester City this time. In my opinion Leipzig won't stand a chance in Etihad. Guardiola must be able to motivate his players fully to destroy their opponent with their usual game plan. They made a big mistake in the previous match which led to a draw at the end actually.

They tried to secure a 1-0 win instead of trying to opening the goal gap more. But this time I won't expect to see the same mistake. I think they will win by a goal gap of two or three in the rematch.

Real Madrid have drawn their matches in La Liga again, while Liverpool have had a crushing victory to a club I didn't think would lose that much. There is a gap now, I mean with Real Madrid who are struggling it will open up opportunities from Liverpool in the second leg, especially they were impressive in their last game. Honestly it's getting harder to say whether Liverpool will be able to get back 3 goals, or Real madrid can keep it. Because this is the Champions League big things can happen.

It is so disappointing that at this crucial time PSG will be facing Bayern Munich for the second leg tie without Neymar in their attack but despite his absence I am trusting Kylian Mbappe and Messi to lead the team in a quest for victory and qualification against Bayern Munich. It will definitely not be an easy but PSG are capable of causing Bayern Munich's defense much problems.

Indeed, for Real madrid in the Champions League and in LaLiga it was different, but that's what I said maybe a lot of people thought that Liverpool would be eliminated but I believe that even if there is a small chance for Liverpool there is still hope.

Looks like it's a difficult one. not an easy job for Klopp and his team to overthrow Real Madrid with a crushing score. Moreover, in the match Liverpool will face Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu. doesn't mean Liverpool can't do it, but to score 3 goals without reply is something that is very difficult to do. also, the high pressure of losing in the first leg will greatly affect the mentality and emotions of the Liverpool players. also, we can't be sure Liverpool's performance has recovered to the true track.

After all, the team that Liverpool will fight against is a team that has a winning mentality in this competition. also, Madrid will not let Liverpool's players dictate to them in the second leg match later. and in terms of quality, Madrid has quite a depth. it's just that, in a number of matches in the domestic league, Madrid's performance has slightly decreased.  but that does not mean, Madrid will not provide fierce resistance to the opposing team. at least, El Real only needs a draw to qualify for the next round. However, based on Liverpool's big win over United. it is hoped that this will be a strong impetus to motivate, as well as awaken the mentality and spirit of the team as a whole. as a connoisseur of football, I hope that the two teams that will compete will give their best version of the game in the fight later.

That's Neymar, he often suffers serious injuries so that when he is needed during important matches, he must be absent, of course, with the spearhead of PSG's attacks, they can only rely on Mbappe and Messi as their main priority in their team.
At least they will try to keep qualifying from this qualifier, while it is said that Bayern Munich can only survive without a goal or a draw is already an advantage for them, but PSG will not remain silent, they will definitely try to put pressure on Bayern Munich's defense.

I see so many guys only see in PSG Messi and Mbappe and thinking so all is real and they got chance a win, of course yes, I have respect for this guys ofc. But nobody care about midifielders, whos as 1st leg they only were the backdrop to Bayern, with hude different. (+0 pressing).
Probably in match we will see PSG midi like: N Mendes - Fabian - Vithinia - Verratti, for me this guys as we can see in Uber Eats can fight with Nantes, Tolouse etc. Also next player as Hakimi is off from 2nd match, also problem for PSG.

[shogun47]

I don't think that PSG has only weak defenders, but their philosophy and game understanding is quite different from that of many other teams. You actually name it yourself, they don't work as a team from offense to defense. It is said that the defense begins with your offensive players and when you have Messi, Neymar and Mbappe on the pitch, how many of them are also working defensively? Who of them is known for outstanding defensive work even as an attacker? That's the difference compared to most of the other teams. They have strong offensive lines as well, but two out of three players are often willing to work backwards, too. The whole offensive line of PSG is usually more or less waiting for the ball and nowadays only Messi takes the ball from the first third and carries it forward and plays a precise long ball.

They have good defenders for the French league but when you go against the best in the Champions League they are always exposed. PSG have Messi and Neymar the best forwards in the world and they have struggled to win the Champions League for many years despite spending millions on players. They play in 1 of the weakest leagues in Europe and can focus on the Champions League more then other teams. They still do not win and I think it is because of their defenders and how they are not good enough for the Champions League. If they can stop conceding I would have faith in their forwards to win every game because they score most games.

They are a team that follow the philosophy that attack is the best defense but that has hurt their chances in the Champions League before and it is the reason that they have not won the trophy. They need to change that philosophy if they want to get their name on the trophy. It is entertaining to watch but they are the weakest team out of the champions of European leagues.

Do you think it is an advantage when you play in a weak league and then play against Champions League competitors from the strongest leagues in the world because you can focus better on the CL and neglect your national league? I think it is quite the opposite and I have been thinking that for a long time. When the top teams are challenged every single week and they get used to constant pressure over a long period of time, they don't have to switch gears as much as PSG has to switch gears. You have no real tests and you don't know where you stand until you meet the first big one in the Champions League. In my eyes that is not an advantage.

Again, PSG's defense is not the best, but it is not the worst either. But when you compare it to other teams, when you take the whole defensive movement and overall performance of the whole squad, then it kicks in that PSG has three players standing around at the midfield line while other teams have a compact defense where some of the offensive players also work defensively. That makes quite the difference.

But yes, even though Neymar cannot be played in the second leg later, I think that still won't be a barrier for PSG to stick to their goal of winning. Although the results may be different, what is clear is that their players certainly have good morale because they have a star squad.

But with the official announcement that Neymar will miss PSG against Bayern Munich in Leg 2 at the Allianz Arena, there is more or less an influence for PSG who must set a winning target.
Indeed PSG has a number of good players who might be able to cover Neymar's position, but in my opinion it will not be optimal considering their flying hours are still below Neymar in the UCL.

This situation must be welcomed by Julian Nagelsmann, who is focused on bringing Bayern Munich through to the next round.
