UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

[tulusikhlas]

Manchester City are in first place with the chance to win this season. It becomes natural when we see their organized appearance, especially when carrying out attacks. It can be said that they have good chemistry between the players which makes their game look comfortable. Plus they have a young player who is hungry for goals, Erling Haaland. Will they win the title for the first time?

Considering that Napoli are the most consistent Serie A team, I think Milan will really face big problems when they face them in the Champions League. I think it's true that the quarter-finals are Milan's best achievement this season, but for something higher I think it's something that would be very surprising. Since Milan were draw to get Napoli as their quarter-final opponent, that's when I thought that failure would be easy for them.

We might be able to make the results in the upcoming Serie A as a prediction for the UCL result. Before competing in the UCL, Napoli will face Milan in Serie-A. If Napoli can win this match, chances are that in the UCL it will too. Unless, Pioli implemented a different strategy that could give Milan win this matches. However, if AC Milan wins, I don't think that will continue in the UCL. I remember, Milan fans in Indonesia say, Milan has UCL DNA, but I'm not sure that the current Milan squad can be considered as still having UCL DNA.

When Chelsea was drawn against Dortmund, many people overlooked Chelsea's superior performance in the Champions League compared to Dortmund's superior performance in the domestic league. In the end, we saw Chelsea triumph over them despite losing the first leg match. Experience counts in this league, which is why it's called the League of Champions.

Chelsea was almost making it by going to the next round if it's not caused by the goal in additional time that was eliminating chelsea last season. Chelsea will face king of UCL three times including upcoming duel.
As a former coach of chelsea and i think that if ancellotti is also aware about what's gonna be a weakness of chelsea.

Ancelotti urged its players to be careful against chelsea.

Both of them will be equally careful and alert because they feel that either Chelsea or Real Madrid will definitely show solid football. This is what is even more interesting meeting to reach the final has always been a subscription for Real Madrid. Likewise, Chelsea also needs to work harder. Graham Potter may not have much hope in the Premier League and his position is already very disappointing. Then this is the only chance for Potter to take back the fans' trust in him.

Real Madrid for sure are a better side than Chelsea in terms of quality players and history. They have been drawn against Chelsea for the last consecutive three seasons and as the European Champions and a team whose Spanish La Liga title chase is almost is over after they were beaten by Barcelona last weekend they would play in their full strength to make sure they beat Chelsea.

Chelsea in the other has been struggling in the domestic league and has also not given us a convincing performance in Europe this season but that doesn't mean that the match will be a rollercoaster for Spanish club. Two season's ago Chelsea eliminated Real Madrid and last season, Chelsea were 10 minutes away from eliminating them as well until that killer pass from Modric that allowed Rodrygo to sweep home and draw level on aggregate with Chelsea. It'll be a very interesting match between the two clubs but Chelsea might defile all odds  and make a history

Manchester City don't have an easy job at all this time. Bayern Munich are still very strong after parting ways with Lewandowski. Their disciplined game plan helps them stay focused in the Champions League.

They have eliminated PSG new as you know. This is a really significant achievement despite playing against an amazing trio. Of course we didn't watch all of those three players at the same but still there were at least two of them. Manchester City have even a much stronger squad but they still need to play carefully not to let their opponent capture an advantage easily. I wonder how good Haaland would be this time. He is familiar with playing against Bayern Munich.

Bayern vs man City, is definitely the most exciting fixture in the draw,the two teams are never scared to attack,but I just feel City will progress at the end of the day..watching City play,and seeing the amount of chances they create in every game is so unreal,it will take a lot to win them over the course of two legs

the AC Milan vs Napoli match in Serie A might indeed be a benchmark for analyzing how these two teams will perform in the quarter-finals of the Champions League. But it seems that the majority of us have already seen that there is an opportunity for victory for Napoli. because as we saw in the Milan vs Udinese match. in that match Milan was really bad at making chances. even though Milan controlled the ball more but they were weak in making chances. even their defense is easier to penetrate by the Udinese forwards. so in the match against Napoli maybe we wouldn't be surprised if Milan conceded more balls.

Munich this season doesn't seem too lucky because they have to meet strong teams early. in the round of 16, Munich faced PSG. they managed to win and qualify despite having to try hard. and next is Man City, it's really not easy for Munich. Man City's first leg will be at home, and if Munich is to qualify, they will need to suppress Man City's dominance at home as much as possible which is always very strong.
Munich must minimize the risk of defeat as small as possible. and only in the second leg when playing at home, will Munich be more favored. a match between two equally strong teams, this will require the right coach strategy and tactics. This fight will be quite draining for both teams.

Will they win the title for the first time?

It's true that Manchester City is the strongest candidate to win the Champions League this season and from all the existing lines they are very compact in attack and defense. Erling Halaand, who often becomes the foundation for goals for Manchester City, is a striker that his opponents must watch out for. It's just that Halaand is more of a finisher in front of goal and if he doesn't get enough ball supply, it will certainly be difficult for Manchester City to score goals. Even though Manchester City is so strong, there are still other strong European teams that they need to get rid of in the QF round to the semifinals, before they can move on to the finals. But the opportunity to become a UCL champion is still open so far.

Munich this season doesn't seem too lucky because they have to meet strong teams early. in the round of 16, Munich faced PSG. they managed to win and qualify despite having to try hard. and next is Man City, it's really not easy for Munich.

Let's recall how Real Madrid won Champions League in the past season, they won over PSG, Chelsea, Manchester City and Liverpool. None of those clubs are weak and easy opponents for Real Madrid. Bayern Munich and Manchester City have to do the same if they want to win Champions League 2022 - 2023.

Personally Manchester City will not have easy matches with Bayern Munich. I don't say Bayern Munich will have easy matches but they are likely more comfortable than Manchester City.

Man City's first leg will be at home, and if Munich is to qualify, they will need to suppress Man City's dominance at home as much as possible which is always very strong.

If we look at domination of Bayern over PSG at PSG home stadium, we would not feel fearful for Bayern in Etihad stadium. I am not sure Bayern will repeat such impressive domination over Manchester City but it is possible. Manchester City sometimes turn to be very weak mentally when they face with strong opponents in Champions League.

the AC Milan vs Napoli match in Serie A might indeed be a benchmark for analyzing how these two teams will perform in the quarter-finals of the Champions League. But it seems that the majority of us have already seen that there is an opportunity for victory for Napoli.

It's not common for Napoli to participate in Champions League quarter finals. This season, they worked hard and got that chance and are making history for their club. Seasons ago, Atalanta was an underdog like Napoli in this season but Napoli actually are playing more impressive than Atalanta. They are destroying clubs in Serie A and expanding it to Europe.

If they repeat success in Serie A to Champions League, beating AC Milan is possible and at semi finals, they can dream about a first title in Champions League for their club hall.

The heyday of Napoli once happened when the legend Diego Maradona played at Napoli. At that time Napoli won several trophies. but after that Napoli no longer won a trophy even for decades. and now Napoli finally have the chance to return to their glory days. In Serie A, even Napoli's position can be said to be in a safe position to win the title. and now in the Champions League Napoli also have a wide open opportunity to continue to go further and restore their long-lost glory to them.

The two legs for Bayern Munich and Manchester City will be equally interesting to watch as they will both give their best to get a win in each leg. This is clearly a very interesting match because on the one hand Manchester City have never tasted a title in the Champions League and this season the Manchester City team will do their best to get to the next round in order to target the title this season.

[bering]

4 nice matches in the quarterfinals. And yes, City did not hit it with the draw, but of course not Bayern either. But that those 2 would meet each other was inevitable. Perhaps also nice that it is not the final yet. Benfica is also priced by many people, but Napoli has shown much more than Benfica so far in this tournament? Napoli may have a slightly lower level than City, but it has enough chances to get the final in every gauge. And then you can look further from there.

I think, Manchester city will defeat Bayern Munich 2-0 to qualify for semi final because they will not joke with their opportunity in this match than to do what will bring them victory at the end of the match. I don't think, Bayern Munich defenders can stop Haaland and other strikers not to have access to their goalpost to score goals because no matter how prepared Bayern Munich players prepare, Manchester city will definitely achieve victory from this match. There is a hope for Napoli to defeat AC Milan in this quarter final round, because Napoli performance are very good in this season.

While still playing for Dortmund Haaland has been scoring 5 goals from 7 matches against Bayern and i think this is good records because at least he know the weakness of Bayern defense but indeed this is one of the most difficult match for Manchester City because they will be tested against one of the strongest team in europa although Bayern performance in Bundesliga isn't too stable but their performance in champion league is quite good

And since group stages until round of 16 Bayern has displayed good balance to defense and attacking even from defense Bayern so far only conceded 2 goals from 8 matches but once again Manchester City currently has Halland and i am sure he will be scores goals but in my opinion the outcomes from this match still hard to predicted because both teams were equally strong

[Leviathan.007]

I don't think anyone has any doubts that Napoli will eliminate Milan. Besides the fact that Napoli has a better squad than Milan, they are more in shape side with high morale. They want to win everything this season. Milan players' this season performances have been hugely disappointing, except Giroud, Leao and Tonali. On the other hand Napoli have talented young star players who are on the transfer list of every major team. Milan's history may be bigger, but their current situation matters most. Napoli will pass quarter final like a walk in the park.

AC Milan are bigger European Competitive sides than Napoli especially when it comes to the Champions League football, they currently have bout three to four Champions League, but with current form, whoever writes Napoli off is simply cynical.
They're the best side in the world the most consistent side who have scored more goals and conceded lesser too, they have shown desire and dedication from the back on how they're just focused on winning alone.

If it finally comes to the Champions League next round, I'm not giving a final conclusion on who wins but then, I'm backing Napoli to knock Ac Milan who struggled to get three points against Udinese.

Comparing these two teams is not hard if you compare their performance from the start of the season until this time, AC Milan couldn't have a good performance they lost many games recently against Udinese, Salernitana, and Fiorentina which can show us this team is not stable enough to beat Napoli, while Napoli didn't lose any games expect for only two games however, we can surely tell if Napoli is going to beat AC Milan or not yet.

I hope that ancellotti will did some evaluation. The problem is now real madrid defenders are lazy as fuck. It can be seen from some chances that already gotten by barcelona in the last game of elclassico.

I don’t think Real Madrid defenders are the cause of the problem. I think the coach has a fault in this. I think Carvajal should have less playing time. Going down to their central defenders like Rudiger and Militao are doing a good job in the absence of David Alaba. Also, I think Nacho is a bit slow and isn’t really going forward and attacking more.

In terms of midfielders, Luka Modric and Toni Kroos are almost worn out players. Players doing the real job are Camavinga and Valverde as they’ve been instrumental in linking the defense to the attack.

During the game against Liverpool, Toni Kroos should have supported Vini Jnr to attack from the left side and couldn’t.
I do think Madrid should change their coach who would be willing to bring in new players.

Tactical brilliance also plays a major role in a team's performance every season, a team can have good and experienced players and still find it difficult to win games and competing against top teams for trophies. I think Ancelloti has a major role to play and Real Madrid have not been so good this season in the league as a result of decisions made by Ancelloti who seem to channel his focus on the Champions league title.

I don't know if it was Ancelotti's fault or not but one thing is clear, in my opinion this season Barcelona is indeed better than Real Madrid but only for the domestic league. But if we compare it to this Champions League then of course, I think Ancelotti is still fine to coach Real Madrid, and the problem of bringing in new players of course that can be realized in the next transfer market.

That way, Ancelotti will still be able to stay at Real Madrid because after all, keeping old players at Real Madrid, I think, has become a culture that belongs to Real Madrid. But yes, of course the time will come for Real Madrid to replace old players with young players who have great potential with Real Madrid.

Yes, it would definitely take a whole lot to win them as they’ve been playing amazing football and winning games also. Bayern would probably need a miracle to win Manchester City. It would be a lot more exciting to watch them try though. I too feel Manchester City would win(perhaps not as easy as people would think) and progress at the end.

City is very good at penetrating their opponents defense thereby creating good chances that in most cases would lead to a goal. Not trying to undermine the capabilities of Bayern as even without Lewandoski, they’re still a force to reckon with. It would definitely be an existing fixture to watch. My money is on Manchester city though.

Milan lost in front of an opponent they should have been able to beat and that has become bad consumption for their fans. As we know, Milan's chances of beating Napoli are very small with a reverse record with Napoli, of course coach Spaletti will guide his players to be able to beat Milan in the QF round. But what's certain is that even if Milan can dominate the match, they won't be able to do that during the full match time and they often lose those moments and that can be put to good use by Napoli to steal the lead.

While on paper it is seeming that Manchester City is the favourites to progress to the next level of the UEFA Champions League.
But in real life we need to be very sceptical and scared of the outcome of that results.
This is because unlike Bayern Munich, Manchester City Are always faced with a kind of confusion at the middle or beginning of some matches?

When Manchester City is playing clubs like Aston Villa in England, you would understand that they will at a time become confused and almost lose the match until they turn the match up again and win
But if such confusion happens in the Champions League against Bayern Munich, I am sorry that they might not be able to return back to winning.

I think the match between Manchester City vs Bayern Munich is the final match too early. Manchester City vs Bayern Munich should have happened in the Champions League Final match.

I'm hard to say which one will come out as the winner. even though their legendary striker has moved to Barcelona but they got a replacement who is also very extraordinary, namely Mane. Mane is used to facing teams from the English league, especially Manchester City, of course this is an advantage for Bayern Munich.

 In my opinion, mentally, the Bayern Munich players are more prepared than the Manchester City players, because they are used to playing in the Champions League, and have also won the title several times.
So in conclusion I am optimistic that Bayern Munich will win this match with a thin score.

[RealMalatesta]

Historically speaking, Chelsea has always been a very difficult opponent for Real and if I remember correctly, so far Real has only beaten Chelsea once in European competitions.
Chelsea always plays very well in the Champions League, a few seasons ago they were also champions of Europe, and last season they lost to Real with a lot of bad luck, after leading by as much as 3:0 in the match in Madrid.
This year they may be playing a little weaker in the English championship, but this is the game of the season for them and I'm sure that Real won't beat them easily. Two uncertain and exciting matches await us.

Historically Chelsea used to be a better team. I get that they are still all the way here, which should look like that's a good thing and all, but look at where they are in the league, they are doing terrible and just because they have come this far on UCL doesn't mean that they are good.

Historically they used to be good and that is why sometimes they gave Real some tough times here and there, but during those times they were a better team, whereas they are not now. The difference between both clubs right now is staggering and I would say that both games will be easily won by Real Madrid without a worry, just like last year when Real beat them again.

So in conclusion I am optimistic that Bayern Munich will win this match with a thin score.

Yes, the draw for the quarterfinals has resulted in a big game. I believe the two teams previously avoided each other not to meet too soon. But the draw requires them to kill each other to advance to the semifinals.

This fight will certainly grab the attention of many people. Apart from that, this match will be even more interesting due to the effects of Pep Guardiola and Cancelo. Pep Guardiola has handled Bayern Munich for 3 seasons from 2013 to 2016. So for that Pep is quite familiar with the situation of his former club. Meanwhile, Cancelo, who is a former Manchester City player, is now loaned out by Pep Guardiola. The two figures will be the "spice" in that fight.


Speaking of opportunities, I still favor Manchester City. This season Man.City is very powerful, they also have a squad that is quite terrible. The Citizens this season appear trengginas. They just beat other German representatives in the last 16 with a crushing 8-1 aggregate against Eintracht Frankfurt.

This result could make Bayern Munich worried about the appearance of Manchester City. Moreover, in the last five meetings between the two teams, Julian Nagelsmann's team did not have a good record, including in the Champions League.
