UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

[Frankolala]

Manchester City can do the thing PSG couldn't against Bayern Munich to be honest. I believe they have a bigger chance than PSG to eliminate them. Guardiola's system is way better than Galtier's that's for sure. PSG had a great trio in their hands but they just couldn't benefit from players like them. Their problem was definitely with the management so Galtier was at fault about that elimination I'm afraid.

When I saw the announcement of the quarter-final board and saw the list, I was really surprised.
Bayern - Man City will be the most interesting match in this quarter-final round. They are a strong team, no doubt, they are very tough on many fronts. I'm sure many people favor Man City because of Haaland, however, Bayern also has a very strong defense and fierce resistance. moreover, they have also been able to eliminate PSG, which has Mbappe and Messi. Therefore, it is still very difficult to determine who will be the winner of this match. Bayern was really unlucky because they had to face strong teams from the start.

There have been predictions about Napoli winning the league, but those making those predictions should also take into account teams like Real Madrid, Bayern, and Manchester City. One thing I like about Napoli is that they never lose focus and they also have good motivation from their management, and they also have a very good defense. Let's see which team will win this match. I was also surprised to see Manchester City playing against Bayern. This match will not only be entertaining, but it will also be a battle between the two clubs. this season's winner will come as a surprise.

Napoli has being playing performing greatly this season but i don't think that they will be able to win the league because I see stronger clubs who will never accept defeat from Napoli. Bayern is an example of such club,if they come in clash with Napoli, I don't think it will be easy for Napoli.

Real Madrid is the league favourite and knows how to play it better than any club I also see them as an obstacle that will prevent Napoli from winning because I don't think that Napoli has what it takes to win the match. The club that will win the league is still unpredictable.

Who would have thought that Bayern Munich would face Man City in the quarter-round after previously they also had to face a strong team? It's a very tough test for Bayern Munich this season. However, at least they could always produce surprising results. However, on the other hand, Man City is not a lowly team, they have quality players and extraordinary tactics on various fronts. So maybe this will make it more difficult for Bayern Munich later. It is also the same happened to Man City itself, they also got a very strong opponent in this quarter-final.

It is not enough to be the best team if you want to win a competition like the Champions League you also need a good timing, a good form on the match day and obviously you also need some luck. Bayern already had a very tough draw in the round of the last 16 against Paris Saint Germain and now they have to face Manchester City. If they are able to advance against them, then they will probably face Real Madrid. So i would say that Bayern Munich drew the hardest opponents that were even possible. In that regard you can not be more unlucky than Bayern.
Of course now ManCity also were unlucky because now the two strongest team are facing each other, while other matches of the quarterfinal have relatively weak teams in comparison to them.

This meme is very accurate. Left side looks like a clear path for Italian teams, especially for Napoli. It's both good and bad for Italian football. Good because they will probably be in the final match, bad because only one team would make it to the finals. Clearly Manchester City and Bayern München match-up is the hardest one. Real Madrid is a natural favorite.
I don't know if rigged draw rumours have any base but bigger teams draw each other and big teams (I don't want to use small team definition at QF) draw each other accusation can gather supporters.

[Velvet78]

It looks like one of the Italian teams will be in the finale for certain. Benfica's job won't be easy at all against Inter in my opinion. But this matchup will still be very competitive for sure. Both of these teams are really strong and I see them nearly equal to each other in performance. But I still see Inter one step ahead of Benfica here. It is because of Inter's playing style actually.

I think they have the strength to stop Benfica now. They can do a really good job at keeping Benfica away from scoring goals easily just as they did it to Porto newly.

[Ndabagi01]

When I look at the pairings, I see one match that can be called an early final and that is of course City vs Munich. Both teams were heavy favorites before the games started.

Could we call this one fixed? As if it were a trap for one of those clubs? The two teams are among the top three performing teams in the champions league and have a good chance of winning the champions league, but having them play each other seems like an early final to us. I'm sure it'll be an exciting match, and any team that makes it through this stage will almost certainly advance to the finals.

The matches are good in general and it is certain that we will watch matches with high viewing pleasure.I never even thought that I would watch an Italian derby in the quarterfinal matches in the Champions League.Milan-Napoli match is actually the side that will pass the round, but it will still be a good match.I think Napoli will comfortably pass the round.

Napoli meeting with AC Milan would be a quick pass through. I'll just tell Napoli that I'll see them in the semifinals. Napoli has performed admirably in both their league matches and Champions League matches. They'll be facing their same league team, so they'll be able to easily understand the path and how they play to eliminate them from this round of the champions league.

[asriloni]

Even in the quarter-finals chart, we can see it is a bit strange. Some weak teams are on the left side and some strong teams are on the right side. I think this is illogical for the draw this time, but still there will be winners and losers. Like the matches of 3 teams from Italy, it's possible that we won't see the final of the Italian team in the UCL this season and Manchester City vs Bayern Munich we can't see the two teams in the final later.

I found quite an entertaining meme regarding this quarter final draw.

Nice meme LMAO. The draw was very strange caused by it just let italian club go to the final in the easiest way. I hope that benfica will able to go to the final. The result from the draw was unacceptable for sure. How can all of italitan teams were not even face team from another league?

That meme is actually true. It seems like that something shady was going on but yeah that's reality. We can only accept the truth. The thing that i can't even understand it. How can chelsea meet madrid three times in a row?

That's quite surprisingly for me to be honest cuased by chelsea is always facing real madrid again and again. So many people were also feeling quite strange with the result from draw.

[trendcoin]

It seems that this season Napoli has a chance to qualify for the Champions League final after seeing the draw results in the quarter finals, Napoli against AC Milan on quarter final and the winning team against between the winner Benfica vs Inter Milan. Based on Napoli performance in domestic league success defeated Milan seems have chance success qualifying to semifinal and waiting between Benfica or Inter will be easy Napoli opponent..

Have advantage after looking quarter final drawing match because they will not face the winner between Manchester City vs Bayern Munich and Real Madrid vs Chelsea in semifinal, but Napoli have to win first against Milan if want have chance to semifinal or final stage.

I think they got a very lucky draw. As you mentioned, they have the possibility of making it to the final very easily. Then, an outstanding one-game performance in the final could win them the trophy. Of course I don't underestimate them, they've come this far with a great game, but they have a really lucky draw. When the strongest favorites of the cup are playing against each other, they will have relatively weak matchups. Manchester City / Bayern Munich - Real Madrid matches are like two early finals.

[herurist]

Even though Man City can beat Bayern Munich, King UCL Real Madrid will be waiting in the semifinals next (I'm sure Real Madrid will win against Chelsea).

I think it really depends on the outcome of the match between Bayern Munich and Manchester City. If Manchester City qualify for the semi-finals, then Madrid will have that chance, but if Bayern Munich qualify for the semi-finals, it may be difficult for Real Madrid to get the next ticket.

Even though in the end Manchester City or Bayern are still in a fifty-fifty condition, I think because you can't say that Bayern or Madrid have a chance that even City can win easily.
The conditions will depend on whether they are capable or not in terms of performance and in terms of players, so things like that are still worth waiting for.

I strongly believe the winner of UCL will be coming from the result of these matches.

Bayern city

Madrid chelsea.

Italian clubs were just lucky enough to face clubs that also competed in the serie a. Napoli looks like the strongest candidate to go to the final. Benfica must become the second most favorite team to be qualified for the final.
Madrid and chelsea were the strongest team UCL. I remember that if madrid and chelsea were winning UCL previous seasons. that wouldl be so good if chelsea and madrid faced each other in final but it's not happening.

Bayern and city are always become strong candidate but i doubt if city will able to surpass bayern. As far as i know if haaland was never playing well against bayern in bundesliga.

[BlackBoss_]

I strongly believe the winner of UCL will be coming from the result of these matches.

Bayern city

Madrid chelsea.

In this branch, two Premier League clubs meet two strong teams Bayern Munich and Real Madrid. They are both strong clubs but Chelsea look to be a weakest in those clubs as they have some problems in this season. Either Bayern, City or Madrid go to final will be a tough opponent for another club from another branch which has 3 Italian clubs and one from Portugal (Benfica).

Italian clubs were just lucky enough to face clubs that also competed in the serie a. Napoli looks like the strongest candidate to go to the final. Benfica must become the second most favorite team to be qualified for the final.

Napoli are able to beat AC Milan but matches in Champions League and in Serie A are different. AC Milan have DNA to win in Champions League and they are more familiar with big knock-out matches there but Napoli are very strong under dog in this season. I hope they can continue their best performance from Serie A to Champions League.

Benfica are not actually stronger than Inter Milan and I hope Inter Milan will win then make a Italian semi-final in this branch.

There is no doubt about these both teams quality and performance in last few years in both domestic and UEFA competitions, but sadly both have no good record in last few years specially Manchester City which is looking for the first UEFA title in few years are more hungry, but luck never favor them so for me same going to happen again with them in this year because Bayern Munich is having much better quality and depth in their team even Haaland is also giving one man show performance for the Citizens but playing against Bavarians is never been easy for any team specially while you are dreaming for the first Champions League title like PSG.

After having this draw now I am feeling most chances we will have Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Inter and Napoli with Real Madrid vs Napoli in the final for this 2023 as well.

[lixer]

Napoli performed very well during this season in both Serie A and in the champions league, also there are lucky because they are playing against AC Milan this team is also from Serie A and last time Napoli won the game against AC Milan with a 2-1 result, and during the last five games they had Nopali won three times and lost two times so I expect them to win the game in the champions league.

Even currently Napoli is having good performance and quality for qualifying into next round but still here we have to remember one thing AC Milan is also one off the team like Real Madrid which have love affair with Champions League, so this is not going to be easy game for both teams as recently we have performance decline in AC Milan but still they are good team which can perform surprisingly in any match but here we have one good thing for Serie A after many years now all top five teams are having good performance in UEFA competitions which is positive development which can create good change for them in near future after few poor years in European competitions which was never been ideal place in last few years.

Bayern and city were having the same record in the head to head of UCL.



As you can see that if bayern was not able to fully dominate the match against manchester city. I think that if bayern must be careful with haaland as he will become a threat to bayern yet i do believe that Bayern is fully experienced enough about how to protect him in the whole of game.
Halaand must not become a serious problem for bayern as haaland has some good defenders to kill haaland's movement during the match in UCL. This is also a very interesting match for sure.

Bayern is also looked like difference compared with the last time against manchester city which was almost a decade ago.

Underestimating smaller clubs is something I don't support, from the left side, with current form and stats one would side with Napoli over other sides, it would have been a tough game for Napoli if they was matched up with Inter Milan but with Ac Milan, it's a walk-over game. I'm also backing Benfica for coming this far to defeat Inter Milan. For a long time especially with Antonio Conte, they've failed to get past the last round and they finally did, gladdens me too see that though.

It's disturbing to see the confidence from Chelsea fans, how do they expect Graham Potter ( Tactically Poor ) to defeat Ancellotti currently ? That's a complete joke. Lol, and if they do, they can be very adamant when it comes to Bayern Munich.
It'll be midfied battle between Bayern Munich and Manchester City, Pep Guardiola and his former side, it'll sure be one of the best games to watch for youngins. Napoli for the Finals Left, and Manchester City from the right.

in this season the strength of the two teams has been different from the season before and if you look at the consistency in the domestic league I think Manchester City is much better than Bayern.
Manchester City have a lot of desire in the UCL this season and given the strength they have, I think it's very logical.

and it's true, haaland will again be in the spotlight of many people this season, this striker is in top form this season and that will be a serious threat to Bayern.

in the UCL draw I think Real Madrid vs Chelsea and Manchester City vs Bayern are the most difficult games in my opinion.

I personally will not underestimate chelsea at this moment by learning if chelsea could be performing so well during the UCL competition while at the same time the club was having very bad performance in the domestic league. I meant if we must also try to take a look at how chelsea was able to face madrid three times in a row. Chelsea has even proven itself in UCL compared with city which was never winning UCL. City was in .very bad groups

Another groups being filled by italians club and since napoli was always winning against ac milan and i think that napoli is gonna be an easy match for napoli. Napoli was also lucky enough to not face intermilan.

Remember when intermilan was breaking napoli's win streak records.

The Champions League matches will be great now. Because every team will now play at their best and at their maximum which will make every match very difficult. However, Manchester City and Real Madrid have great potential to do well.

Bayern Munich had a solid defense both during the Pep Guardiola and Nagelsmann eras, but with the composition of the players that have now changed. Man City has the advantage because Pep Guardiola has led Bayern Munich for quite a long time and coupled with Haaland presence, Man City can tear apart Bayern Munich's defense a little more. In my opinion, it's 40:60 for this big match, because it's Bayern Munich who will feel a little overwhelmed, at least they have to be able to control Haaland fast movements, who always chase the ball's reflection in the penalty box.

I agree with you even though personally Real Madrid is my handle so far. But apart from all that Chelsea cannot be underestimated just like that, considering their chances in the Premier League are not so ideal then they will do anything in the Champions League. I know their performance against big clubs will be even more different and playing against Real Madrid will motivate them even more. Last season Chelsea was thwarted by Real Madrid and now the opportunity for revenge is in sight. Even though at that time Chelsea in Tuchel's hands looked more aggressive, now for Graham Potter this is a very extraordinary opportunity to restore public trust if he is able to conquer the mentality of the Champions League winner.

In the match between Manchester City and Bayern Munich I will place Manchester City ahead. Because Manchester City is doing great in the English Premier League, they will be able to beat Bayern Munich in the quarter finals of the Champions League.
