UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

[MusaMohamed]

I see the hot discussion of Real Madrid - Chelsea match-up. I think today's El Clasico loss was bad for Chelsea. Because now Real Madrid have no chance to win La Liga, they have to go for Champions League trophy with full focus.

Real Madrid still shown their dangerous performance in Champions League this season even they got troubles in La Liga. Especially now as you said, they are going to fully focus on Champions League. With a few more matches left in Champions League, their star players including old players like Modric, Benzema, Kroos will contribute their best to shine and win the title, a sixth Champions League in their career if they make it. They know at their ages, this season can be a very last time they can win it.

Courtois wanted to avoid Manchester City and Chelsea. Sure everybody would prefer Benfica, Inter or Milan. I think they should be thankful they didn't draw other big teams. I'd put Chelsea fourth place after these three mentioned team. This round may not be that difficult for Real Madrid, who eliminated another English club Liverpool. I can't say same thing about their possible semi final match-up though.

It is naturally to prefer weaker opponents than strong ones but I see Real Madrid have no issue to play against any big club in Europe. They can win or fail but they always have good confidence. Those clubs should have more fear when face with Real Madrid as they will meet a most successful club in Champions League.

Manchester City and Bayern Munich are two strong and experienced teams for the Champions League platform. Both are aiming to win the Champions League title. And so it will be the most competitive and exciting match of the quarter-final round. Manchester City scored 7 goals in their last match. Haaland remains in form, while City's attack is now strong. On the other hand, Bayern Munich's attack is also very strong. It is expected that we will get a chance to see many goals in this match.

Bayern Munich is not a favorite opponent for Manchester City and at least City don't want to meet Bayern too soon at quarter final phase. Anyway, destiny puts them to meet each other and City have to accept a challenge of destiny. If they want to win a first Champions League, they must beat all challenges and take the trophy.

I feel bad for City with this drawing result but they have to move towards next two matches without fear. Because Bayern Munich themselves have problems in this season and we see how they hardly control their domination in Bundesliga. This gives City more hope and opportunities to beat Bayern than in other seasons and they must take advantage of Bayern problems to beat the opponent.

[JeffBrad12]

Chelsea still have come not a very short way. Their chance of advancing to the next stage has dropped too much already after having a draw against Real Madrid. I just think Real Madrid would tear them apart if they preserve the same motivation level they got against Liverpool. These are both English teams and not so different than each other this season as well.

Liverpool and chelsea may get the same result against real madrid. Madrid is doing so well compared with english team. As you can see that how real madrid was even able to beat liverpool on its home. That was making chelsea looks like will have the same fate as liverpool. I see that if real madrid may be winning UCL again this season. It seems like that this groups gonna be a very hard match to predict. I meant chelsea vs madrid may a bit easy to predict unlike city vs bayern.

One way or another I don't see any other possibility than Real Madrid to reach the semi finals comfortably. I still don't see Chelsea defense as reliable. Their most recent Premier League game has also shown that.

I saw that too. Real madrid feels hundred of times better compared with chelsea right now. Chelsea's defense were very often making so many blunders. The latest match against everton has proven that even though with so many defenders and chelsea was still conceded a goal by its opponent. It's not only the players but it seems like that the coach must also be replaced as soon as possible. I never feel confidence when seeing chelsea played in EPL now.

I wasn't expecting a matchup between Manchester City and Bayern Munich so soon; perhaps it will be more interesting in the semifinals. They are the two best clubs in the league and the favorites to win it all. We'll be watching an earlier final than usual. These two teams must prepare extensively for these matches because they are competing in the Champions League rather than the regular league. Both of those teams are in excellent form in their respective leagues, so we’re expecting to see a fierce battle.

One of the favorite teams will be knocked out in the quarter-finals after Manchester City and Bayern Munich met, they will beat each other for a place in the semifinals. The burden is on the shoulders of both coaches, I think Pep Guardiola is under a bit more pressure than J Nagelsmann. Manchester City must face one of the strongest sides to lift the trophy that has yet to be won in the club's history. Coaches must rotate in several other matches to maintain player fitness and avoid injury, team preparation needs to be done to provide fierce resistance to their opponents.

Chelsea's team is very weak right now. And I would say if Chelsea management doesn't make a big fund next season to buy players then this team will be underperforming next season too. Chelsea's performances have been erratic since the start of the season. Chelsea's coach could not improve Chelsea's performance even after getting enough time. Chelsea's performance has deteriorated day by day. Chelsea management may decide to change their coach again next season. However, Chelsea's performance will not be strong if they do not add enough talented players to the squad.

In head-to-head they are very balanced and also a top-flight team that is favored a lot but this is proof later who will qualify for the semifinals while I am here only referring to Manchester City who will qualify this is just a prediction where I only favor the Premier league team.
But I see that Manchester City's game is still quite solid, especially Haaland who is called a gladiator who continues to score goals. I see it will be a bigger opportunity for Manchester City, although I will not underestimate how Bayern Munich's defense has always been and they are also the Champions League mentality that we are know.
As much as possible Pep Guardiola keeps his game so that no one gets injured when they meet but it is estimated that the fitness of the players will be maintained.

Guardiola finally will be reunited with his former team Bayern and Guardiola said he will very excited to faced this match and actually this match is really difficult to predict and i will considers they have equal strength to this competition but Bayern Munich performance on their domestic doesn't really good that recently Bayern position were overtaked by Dortmund because lost from Leverkusen today

And regarding the records Guardiola has been faced Bayern several times while train Barcelona and he has good records from it because never lost before and Guardiola also has been met Nagelsmann several times in Bundesliga while Nagelsmann still train Hoffenheim and he was can able to overcomes Nagelsmann team so maybe these records can be used as the reference to see the outcome from this match and in my opinion Manchester City is slightly the favourite than Bayern

Chelsea already spent a lot money to sign many players in this season and now you're asking them to sign new players in the next season? it's a big joke. Currently Chelsea is trying to improve little by little, they currently might not be good enough, but at least if they could give a good performance on the next season, it's fine and Potter should stay at Chelsea.

I don't expect Chelsea will able to beat Real Madrid even though Real Madrid already losses the last three El Clasico matches.

Manchester City have shown their consistency in the last two matches, in these two matches Manchester City managed to score 13 goals without conceding. Manchester City went to the quarter-finals with a big win in the second leg, they scored seven goals against RB Leipzig, Haaland became the star of the field with 5 goals scored in that match. Guardiola needs to maintain the quality of his team's play, especially the sharpness in the striker sector in scoring goals. Haaland is still Guardiola mainstay on the front lines, Guardiola must maintain his fitness so he can perform optimally against Bayern Munich.

All of teams that were playing in this group were the most favorites team to win UCL this season, unlike other groups that have been fulfilled by italian clubs. People called if the final was coming too early. Pep is always under pressure caused by it must have faced strong opponent but not only that. If real madrid will be winning against city and pep must also have faced real madrid and that will be also giving very big pressure on the pep guardiola caused by bayern and real madrid are very strong team. It will be so difficult to defeat bayern in upcoming match.
Bayern was also learning from past experience. It will not even let manchester city kick the club out of UCL too. It's a very very hard to match for pep guardiola.

Pep wanna try to take UCL as the main target for this season rather than EPL but yeah the clubs that will be faced by pep were also very strong.

With all the bad things that Chelsea had to go through this season, they were lucky enough how did they get to the quarter-finals, how could they get past Dortmund, which is one of the toughest challengers, considering their bad luck, but this time I think Chelsea will not or will find it difficult to face Real Madrid, who is the king of the league champions, so with it impossible for Real Madrid to overtake Barca in the laliga and focus on this competition Real Madrid benefited by getting the draw against Chelsea.

Napoli will face AC Milan, maybe their experience in the champions league is not as good as Milan but that shouldn't be a problem for Napoli because they have often faced each other in the local league so Napoli will have an idea of what kind of team they will face and overcome if they want to advance to the semifinals

[Silence Scream]

Manchester City's job will be much tougher than the last one for sure. Bayern Munich are one of the strongest candidates for the Champions League championship together with Manchester City now.

Manchester City will need to be extra careful with their defending especially. Lewandowski's departure hasn't weakened them too much honestly. They are still a very productive team. Now that have great additions like Mane and Cancelo which has made the team much stronger. We are all familiar with the disciplined system of Bayern Munich as well. Manchester City need to keep up with them not to have the same result with PSG. But it doesn't feel like Bayern Munich will be able to get past them. We will watch a close matchup but the winner should be Manchester City with Haaland's big help as well.

Both of those teams are in excellent form in their respective leagues, so we’re expecting to see a fierce battle.

I think this game will be the most interesting game for this week because both teams are in a good attacking situation and especially if you consider how Haaland is shining these days in both the champions league and premier league but this time he should face a stronger team with stronger defensive power I'm wearing for the game but I think this time Manchester City will lose this match against Bayern Munich.

We know it will be a tough match.  Bayern Munich and Manchester City both have the potential to advance to the next round.  Although it is difficult to predict before the game, the Manchester City offensive line seems to me to give Manchester City a more advantageous score.  Considering Bayern Munich eliminated PSG, it should never be considered an easy opponent.

Haaland is still Guardiola mainstay on the front lines, Guardiola must maintain his fitness so he can perform optimally against Bayern Munich.

Guardiola needs all of the main players in the squad to use all of their strength against bayern. Bayern is a very difficult competitor to be beaten. Haaland is not enough to be an insurance to make sure if city would able going to the next round. It needs very good team work. Seeing how bayern was defeating barcelona and PSG makes me think that city must have faced a very strong team in UCL after real madrid. Pep was also thinking so hard about which thing has become a weakness of bayern.
Pep will not able to use the same tactic as when city was against leipzig caused by bayern is far stronger compared with leipzig. Leipzig is also having a different playstyle than bayern. I think that if pep will not do the same experiment during the first leg city may face huge loss against bayern.

Nagelsmann feel so happy to face bayern and haaland will become the biggest threat to bayern in the match against city. Nagelsmann has a way about how to kill haaland's movement. Pep must not think to underestimate its opponent like leipzig caused by it can also be a boomerang for city.

Chelsea may need to learn from Barcelona this season on how to beat Real Madrid to qualify for the semi-finals.
Barcelona have won 3 El Clasico matches so far this season against Real Madrid (Spanish Super Cup Final, Copa Del Rey and La Liga), this is very important for Chelsea, especially about how Barcelona overcomes Real Madrid's and take advantage their weaknesses.

Chelsea must realize that Vinicius and Benzema are two players who need to stop their movements. Their individual skills very often make the opposing team concede and lose a match, so if Chelsea manage to overcome these two players then of course they will succeed in minimizing the possibility of conceding goals. But Real Madrid is not only about those two players, Asensio and Rodrygo are also dangerous but these two players are not really getting a place in the main line-up. I think Chelsea must appear different from Liverpool, so they also need to learn a lot from Liverpool's mistakes against Real Madrid so that there is still a chance of reaching the semi-finals.

I just think Real Madrid would tear them apart if they preserve the same motivation level they got against Liverpool.

One way or another I don't see any other possibility than Real Madrid to reach the semi finals comfortably. I still don't see Chelsea defense as reliable. Their most recent Premier League game has also shown that.

Liverpool defense is in better shape than Chelsea defense in my opinion. Despite this, they had to concede 5 goals from Real Madrid. I remember there were a lot of matches where the Chelsea defense was alarmed. If Real Madrid has a good day, it will be a big defeat for Chelsea. I hope they don't suffer such a defeat because it would be a huge disappointment for them.

Indeed, if we pay close attention to Liverpool's defense, it is better than Chelsea and we can even see the results in domestic league matches which make Liverpool's standings still better than Chelsea. But indeed, if a team of Real Madrid's class can find gaps between the defense, surely it is an unusual mistake that makes Liverpool have to concede 5 goals. On the other hand, I think Chelsea will experience something similar if they don't learn from the previous match between Liverpool and Real Madrid.

In this case, Real Madrid will be psychologically strong. If they get another 5-goal win, all their next opponents will have to approach them with fear. They will be afraid of experiencing the same end. Considering that Real Madrid will concentrate on UCL with all their strength as the chances of winning the La Liga championship are very low, we can see a great UCL adventure for Real.

Liverpool not only have a better defense than Chelsea, but also the offense, what Chelsea is probably superior to Liverpool is in the midfield, especially with the recent acquisitions, but nevertheless for Real Madrid Chelsea is probably the most convenient opponent.
Potter has not been able to create his own drawing of the game and occasionally begins to improvise on the fly, as in the game with Everton, where Chelsea scored first, then decided to play on defense and in the end Everton were able to get a draw.

Real Madrid is much better with coaching vision, except when the team is playing on "autopilot", like the last game with Barca, when the players played as if it were not the game with Barca, but an ordinary game with Elche.

Chelsea can not win Real Madrid this season they can go ahead making them favorite on paper but no they are going no where
Madrid has more than Vinicius and Benzema I just blame the coach for the selections he made
Modric abilities and the great defense, the midfielder's, left back don't just connect well with the attackers. But still, Chelsea are just favorites on paper

Manchester City and Bayern Munich are two strong and experienced teams for the Champions League platform. Both are aiming to win the Champions League title.

On the other hand, Bayern Munich's attack is also very strong. It is expected that we will get a chance to see many goals in this match.

Bayern Munich and Manchester City are my two favourite teams in the Champions league and they almost have the same football quality,  it will be nice seeing them competing and which of them will come out victorious. I'm okay with any of them that comes out victorious. The game will be fun to watch .

If we are seeing the result from last season manchester city may be a bit superior this time. Manchester city has a better squad compared with the last season while bayern must accept the truth if it doesn't have a good striker like lewandowski again. Bayern was losing against city and this gonna be revenge for bayern against the city. The most interesting thing is if haaland will be facing its old competitor when he was still playing at the dortmund.

As far as i know that haaland has very bad record against bayern when he was still at dortmund.



Haaland was never won against bayern with dortmund. Will haaland continue another bad trend with city once against bayern?
