UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

[Uruhara]

Milan v Napoli is like a Serie A match to me. I don't see any difference between their looks in the Serie A and Champions League as well. Napoli are very strong here as well while Milan don't have a very reliable performance. Maybe you will say that Milan are still good here due to eliminating Tottenham. But it was mostly due to Tottenham's being really terrible against them. Tottenham were a big disappointment just as they were in the most of the season. But it wouldn't be the same scenario against Napoli.

Napoli are a very competitive team in the Champions League as well. They really want the best achievement they can get here. It isn't very difficult for them to make it to the final stage too considering the draw.

By looking at Milan's consistency which continues to decline in Serie A. So of course for now Napoli will be the favourite. but the time to the quarter-final match UCL is still about 3 weeks away. so actually Milan still have time to prepare themselves to correct the mistakes that exist in their team. like their defense which still has many gaps. But even so, I still believe that Napoli is the clear superior. given the difference in strength this season in Serie A.

IMO, I'm guessing. In last night's match, Don Carlo was trying to experiment with his formation, he implemented the 4-2-3-1 pattern. unfortunately, the result is not effective. and that doesn't mean Real Madrid was unable to keep up with Barcelona's game in the El Clasico match. in the second half, Ancelotti returned to his usual formation with a 4-3-3 pattern, and the situation changed quite a bit. Madrid was able to offset the game from Barcelona, ​​they even had several opportunities. Unfortunately, Asensio's goal had to be disallowed by VAR. even though Madrid lost, at least the games of the two Spanish giants were quite even.

Referring to the quarter-final match later. on paper, Madrid has a higher chance than its opponent. moreover, the first leg match will be played at the Santiago Bernabeu. so, however Madrid is more in the favorites to qualify for the next phase. after all, they have advantages over other teams. that is, the mentality of a champion.

Speaking of Chelsea, I don't want to take Graham Potter's team lightly. however, their performance has not shown significant changes. plus, the system that Potter implemented didn't seem to work the way he wanted. I don't know, maybe something is an obstacle in their locker room. however, because this match still has a time lag. at least, the two coaches will maximize their team to perform optimally in the match later. so, let's wait.

I would say it looked quite good actually, they missed a few very important chances, they used a lot of Barcelona's mistakes to their advantage and they even had one goal disallowed, so I wouldn't say that it was definitely terrible, it just didn't look like it would work at that moment but it looked like it could be a decent chance in the long run as well.

I know that many people think that we shouldn't really be looking at the game and just look at the result and the result is that Barcelona won so that we should be considering the tactic as a bad one, but I don't see it that way. I believe that if you played well enough, then sometimes you can lose even when you are good.

Napoli is playing really well in the Italian League, there is no doubt about that. But in the Champions League, I wonder how they are going to perform. This is a match that they are very familiar with. So they should not have too many problems beating Milan.

Personally, I do not want to make any predictions before watching the first leg. I want to see the first leg to have an idea. Now the general prediction is that of course, Napoli is going to win. But this is the champions League. It is not going to be as simple and easy as the Italian League.

There's a high possibility we will see an Italian team in the final this season. That would be awesome as Italy has great history in this competition. In my opinion, Napoli is the most nominated team to be there, as they have showed more persistence this season in all competitions they compete for. Milan also has a great history in this competition, but I tend to Napoli. However, these stages should be considered different from all other stages, and all teams will play them differently and carefully. Anyway, I think an Italian team could finally end the advantage Spanish and English teams have had in the last 10 years.

Ever since the arrival of Abramovic, I have thought and considered several seasons which chelsea has featured in the UEFA champions league tournament,  and I have never seen any season where chelsea's performance is this bad. Even The last time Chelsea played against real Madrid under the ownership of Tuchel I was so sure of the winning. I have never been so afraid of any team in the champions league especially in this stage.  But with potter, I don't see chelsea winning real Madrid in the quarter finals. Football is full of surprises and I hope it happens this time.

One of the early finales I was thinking about happened in this round already: Manchester City - Bayern Munich.

Manchester City are a bigger favourite for the title first of all. This is like a golden opportunity for both of these teams to eliminate one of the biggest threats in the Champions League. Manchester City's previous job was really easy as they showed in the second leg especially. Bayern Munich had a much more difficult matchup maybe but PSG couldn't manage to play like in the way I imagined exactly. This just helped Germans play more comfortably. Guardiola wouldn't do the same mistake. I think this would be a close matchup but Manchester City would advance anyway.

Man City may be the favorite team to win if we consider the quality of the squad. But Bayern Munich played more solidly than Man City. Although Bayern Munich has no many famous players, but they can show their best form so far. TBH, it is difficult to determine which team to qualify for the next round. However, Bayern Munich has a better experience in UCL, they more often beat bigger teams. So, I personally think that Bayern Munich will have a bigger chance to qualify for the next round.

[SOKO-DEKE]

Napoli has the advantage at the moment, and I think betting on them can be the best choice. They often meet in Serie A, so they definitely know the strengths of each team from the outside. Maybe I will have other considerations when Napoli's opponent is not AC Milan in this round, but the draw says they must meet in this quarter-final. AC Milan may be more experienced than Napoli in the Champions League, but this is not in the past where they have very solid team strength, this season it is the opposite, they have not had consistent performances if you look at them in Serie A.

I believe that the match will be difficult and that it will be difficult to gamble on it unless I watch their first leg and see how each team performs. I also may say that Napoli may have advantages to qualify to the next round due to their great performance compared to AC Milan, who are currently in poor form, but the only thing is that I can't just fully stake on Napoli winning of over AC Milan because I believe this is another competition entirely. Let just Wait until the first leg of the game is played to see how each will perform, because I have seen different cases that weak team in a league perform better than strong team in other competition.and to be honest ac Milan is a small team.

Bayern and man city game is the most exciting game in the quarter finals both teams play beautifull football and they are both favourites to win the champions league for me its tough to predict the winner, in terms of quality players man city has the upperhand if guardiola plays his cards right i think he can get past bayern team.

Apart from the decline in performance that has occurred for Milan since the beginning of this year, another factor that makes me sure that Napoli will win in the meeting later is the head to head history between Napoli vs Milan (Napoli wins more)

Napoli's attack line is much more creative and sharper than Milan's current attack line, so I'm sure that in the first leg later, the final score is 2-0 for Napoli's win

One thing is sure for me.... manchester city will fails.

The last time Bayern munich and manchester city meets ... both beating each other , both looks have an equal power , but bayern munich one level better . Total football from bayern munich and a kick & rush vibe in manchester city would make this game might be memorable to watch plus full of extraordinary goals.

I don't think man city will fail to get the qualification against Bayern Munich, it's true Bayern Munich played extraordinary 2 matches against Paris but i believe psg team is a team without spirit and they can't do anything this way even if they got more top class players, but Manchester city is a defferent team, i believe city will make it this way and take Bayern out of the champions league

Bayern has bad result last season against manchester city. I expect bayern will be doing better to beat city. Bayern has cancelo who was a loaned player from manchester city. The only main task for bayern about how to prevent haaland to play freely against bayern. Haaland can be called as the main key for manchester city to make goals. Haaland was also very often making so many goals against another team before.

bayern will have learned from what happened with leipzig. i think that this gonna be a very difficult match for bayern. I just try to learn from the last season's form of manchester city and compare it with the current form.

City has been even doing better in this season with haaland on it.

Man City may be the favorite team to win if we consider the quality of the squad.

I don't know Manchester City will beat Bayern Munich in the quarter final. Honestly, it is one of a most unwanted opponents for Manchester City in quarter final. Anyway, they must accept that it is challenge of destiny and to win Champions League, they must beat all strongest opponents. If they feel fearful because they will meet Bayern Munich, they don't have mentality of a true champion.

But Bayern Munich played more solidly than Man City. Although Bayern Munich has no many famous players, but they can show their best form so far. TBH, it is difficult to determine which team to qualify for the next round. However, Bayern Munich has a better experience in UCL, they more often beat bigger teams. So, I personally think that Bayern Munich will have a bigger chance to qualify for the next round.

Bayern Munich have more experience in Champions League than Manchester City but in this season they don't have their best players. Many of their star players got injured and have yet recovered or had their best fitness back. If Manchester City can not beat Bayern Munich in this condition, they will have to self inquiry why they are weak like that.

[reagansimms]

I don't think that Real Madrid's result yesterday will have huge impact on their champions league tie against Chelsea.
Real Madrid winning mentality is second to no other team that's still in the competition and they are a very solid side with the current best player in the world in their side.

Chelsea in the other hand has a high quality set of of players who can beat anyone on their day. I'm a Chelsea fan and would want them to win the tie but that doesn't change the fact that Real Madrid are favorite to win the tie

Actually, I think this match is quite difficult to predict, both of them have the opportunity to qualify considering head to head record both of them are quite equal. Although in the premier league Chelsea is not very good this season but in the Champions League it is different, Chelsea will be more focused here rather than in premier league and they are will defend very well in the first leg, also there is a possibility they will win although Real Madrid are the favourites.

On paper, Real Madrid and Chelsea have the same chance to qualify for the semifinals. In the Local League, Chelsea performance was not too good, Real Madrid also experienced the same condition in La Liga, 12 points behind the leaders of the standings is not a good achievement for Real Madrid, who are the defending champions.
All possibilities can still happen over the two legs, preparations need to be made by both teams before this match starts. Defense is the focus of the two coaches because in the last game they both conceded two goals. The head to head of the two is very even, this season Real Madrid is in the favorite team, I will bet on Real Madrid win.

This will be one of the most competitive and exciting matches of the Champions League quarter-final round. And one of these two teams is most likely to win the Champions League title. It is impossible to make any predictions about this match. Both teams are very strong. They are very experienced in the Champions League platform and the chances of both teams winning are 50-50. However, Haaland has performed brilliantly in the last few matches. If he performs consistently well in every match, it will be difficult for Bayern Munich's defenders to stop Haaland.

[Pokapoka124]

I think Manchester City vs Bayern Munich will be the toughest and most interesting fixture amongst all four games because both teams are strong and eager to win the Champions league trophy this season. I think that Bayern will try to mark Haaland aggressively since he’s City’s top scorer, but Pep will be expecting this strategy. I would like to see what strategy the managers will be playing on match day.

@Doell Chelsea are starting to shape up well, but there’s a long while to go before they can beat a gain like Real Madrid. Furthermore after the loss at Barcelona’s hand Real Madrid will be hurting bad, and they’ll make sure to make a statement against Chelsea by winning the game in style hence I expect them to comprehensively beat Chelsea and progress to the next round.

All the clubs that qualify for the Champions League have almost equal strength. Manchester City and Bayern Munich are of course giant clubs and in terms of their strength, there is no doubt. But I'm also still more interested in big matches like Chelsea vs Real Madrid, where the chances are more promising. As for the rest, Napoli and Milan will determine the Italian representatives, it is clear that Napoli has more potential.

I have to say Napoli a bit lucky in this competition this because since group stages until quarterfinal Napoli didn't met any strong teams so often and so far only Liverpool is the strongest team they had met but Milan and Napoli were plenty to met on Serie A before so although this is champion league match i think it's not so different because they already know the strength and the weakness each other

But in my opinion the result of this drawing was very favorable for the italian teams because whoever the winner of the match between Napoli vs AC Milan at least Italy has 1 representative team in semifinal but interesting to see whether Italian teams can able go to the final or not and last time the team who can reach to final match was Juventus on 2017 but unfortunately they were lose 4-1 at that time from Madrid

almost the same percentage is in the Man CIty vs Bayern match in my opinion while the Napoli vs AC Milan match is not balanced because Napoli is far superior, we can see it in their domestic league and for the Real Madrid vs Chelsea match as we know this season Chelsea is in very poor performance and even until now they have not been able to get up and because of that, Real Madrid's chances of being able to move into the semifinals are very wide open.

Manchster City Vs Bayern is a very fierce match in my opinion and I even predict that any of them who can qualify for the semifinals will have the chance to go further or win this season.
