UEFA Champions League 2022/23 Season

[masulum]

For Chelsea this can be a dream to beat Real Madrid in this situation both teams, currently, we know Real Madrid is in a good situation after they won the El Clasico and had a perfect performance there against Barcelona while they had players like Benzema shining at this match, while Chslea just started working with Lampard and comparing to Ancelotti he doesn't have enough experience to win this game.

Exactly, Lampard also have an experience to manage Chelsea in the past, but his strategy isn't fit with players and board member decided to sacked him. I know with Chelsea, he only has a job till end of season, but waiting for this Madrid need to make sure all of players ready to playing all out for the chance playing in UCL semifinals. Ancelotti and Madrid on better conditions, I think for the first leg, Madrid will trying to playing defensive with counter attack.

[Oneandpure]

Also, it's even worse at this moment that Chelsea are recruiting Lampard again as a coach and because previously Lampard has failed and so, I'm very unsure of Lampard's ability to be able to manage Chelsea at this time. Because clearly, Chelsea at this moment are in chaos which is certainly difficult to overcome only with a coach like Lampard.

So yes, with the reshuffle in the Chelsea coaching chair at this moment, I personally am very pessimistic and really regret an incident like this. Meanwhile, Real Madrid still looks to be in good form and of course, Chelsea will have no chance of holding Real Madrid back.

Happy or not, Frank Lampard have been Chelsea manager until end this season, not matter what happen with Chelsea success back to the top fourth standing team in domestic league or not he will Chelsea manager for several matches left. All people still memorized with Frank Lampard reputation failure with Chelsea last several season before sacking and replace by Thomas Tuchel.

Real Madrid opponent become test for Lampard capacity as good manager or not and Chelsea management not wrong with their decision give head coach for Lampard, right now Lampard have recruit Asley Cole as assistant coach and nice reunion in Chelsea but waiting the first match debut sweet or not.

Ancelotti and Madrid on better conditions, I think for the first leg, Madrid will trying to playing defensive with counter attack.

Previous experience was also a note for Lampard and now we have to look again at his strategy for playing in the UCL, will this be able to keep up with Real Madrid's game, while in other words the team from Spain is still victorious when playing in the UCL, so it won't be surprising later if they lose in this semi-final it's just that we need to know how Prank Lampard's strategy is with his current abilities to manage players in this big competition

If Chelsea can't defend at home then it will be difficult when they go to the Bernabeu because basically Real Madrid have great ability at home.
Even though until the end of the season when he was in the UCL, it was a tough task for Lampard.

[beerlover]

After the win that Real had in the cup against Barcelona which no one expected them to totally destroy Barcelona at their home with a tennis result 0-4 and seeing Chelsea last results in the Premier League I think it is clear for everyone of us to see that Chelsea most likely stands absolutely no chance against Real Madrid in these upcoming Champions League encounter.

Even if they sign a great coach,he simply will not have time to change things and Chelsea owners should not be expecting miracles in the Champions League and also in the Premier League from Chelsea during this season.

Football doesn't work like that at all. Liverpool managed to beat United 7-0 just recently, then lost to Bournemouth, Real Madrid, and Manchester city with a tie against Chelsea. That doesn't mean that Real Madrid is bad and will lose, of course they can win and I am pretty sure that they will win.

I am not supporting Chelsea by saying they will win or anything like that. All I am trying to say is that just because Real Madrid managed to beat Barcelona, doesn't mean that they will also be able to beat Chelsea, that is not how football works. They will beat Chelsea because they are going to play better than them and that is going to be the key here and that is how they will get to next stage by playing better than the other team.

All Real Madrid fans will surely be excited about the next match against Chelsea, for them this is De Javu and no one expected that the two teams would meet again in the same stage as last year. But what is clear is that I will also be happy and bet on Real Madrid's victory because in my opinion this is a clear result, especially since the first leg will take place at the Santiago Bernabeu, it will make it easier for Real Madrid to win.

I'm waiting for a surprise from Frank Lampard as a coach of Cheslea because I know he is familiar with his team and I expect to see much better performance in this team after he started working there also there is the possibility that Real Madrid loses this game because even Dprtpound ina good shape lost the game against Cheslea while I was expecting to see Chslea losing that game now its real Madrid's turn.

Before the match against Madrid, we will see Chelsea play their away game against Wolverhampton. in that match, we can see a little picture of what Lampard did with Chelsea. even though that assessment could be too early, but at least we'll see the system that Lampard implements. Well, what interests me the most is whether Chelsea can play as a team under Lampard. otherwise, it's just like Potter did. So, let's just wait for them to play the game.

As for Real Madrid, no one will deny that El Real has a high probability of overthrowing Chelsea. yes, given Chelsea's current situation. supposedly, not a big problem for Don Carlo's squad when they host Chelsea later at the Santiago Bernabeu later. after all, Real Madrid is superior to Chelsea. especially if we measure in terms of mentality and readiness, Madrid is superior to the opposing team later. however, we are talking only on the basis of performance and statistical data. the unique thing is, in football, sometimes something that is easy for us to predict beforehand, the results are sometimes beyond expectations. so let's just wait, because only a matter of days this fight will be held.

Each match is a unique event and anything can happen, while the odds are in favor of Real Madrid it is not as if Chelsea is a bad team, if they were Chelsea will not be at the quarterfinals of the most prestigious tournament for clubs around the world, it is just that taking into account the quality of their players they should play at an even higher level than what we are seeing right now, and with this in mind Real Madrid should be the favorite during their next match.

Actually it is also not right that it is a dream for Chelsea to be able to beat Real Madrid to make them qualify for the next round, but they have little chance of doing that. It is hoped that Lampard will be able to make Chelsea work better in this match, at least they will not make it easier for Real Madrid to qualify without a fight. A very difficult task for Lampard because he has to face a big and decisive game like this, I hope he can do his best.

Although the Champions League quarter final matches have not yet been played, I expect to see Manchester City and Real Madrid in the Champions League final. Because so far these two teams have performed incredibly well in the Champions League.

[izsara]

I'll always back Real Madrid in every Champions League match until they get kicked out of this league. However, in the quarter finals, Real Madrid will perform brilliantly to ensure victory, as Real Madrid managed to defeat Barcelona by a huge margin in the Copa del Rey match. Real Madrid is getting stronger day by day.

All Real Madrid fans will surely be excited about the next match against Chelsea, for them this is De Javu and no one expected that the two teams would meet again in the same stage as last year. But what is clear is that I will also be happy and bet on Real Madrid's victory because in my opinion this is a clear result, especially since the first leg will take place at the Santiago Bernabeu, it will make it easier for Real Madrid to win.

Well, actually for Madrid this is the second time when they say about Deja Vu because before that it was also clear Liverpool would not have expected to meet them and I think this could also be a good condition again for Madrid with Chelsea's condition which was worse than last season of course there's still a chance of winning.
On the other hand, back to Deja Vu, they could have met their opponents last year (Manchester City) in the Semi Finals if these two favorite championship clubs managed to beat their opponents in the quarter finals.

[kawetsriyanto]

Of course we are favourites, but Chelsea cannot be underestimated for any reason.

Yep. You are right. Real Madrid is clearly the favorite team but they can't underestimate Chelsea if they want to win the match.

Lampard and Ancelotti are two different coaches. Ancelotti is a coach who has a wealth of experience in the Champions League which will put a lot of advantages over him, so I think we should be the favorites even if Lampard is determined to build a fragile Chelsea.

The obvious thing, Ancelotti is more experienced to win UCL. He knows well how to qualify for the final round. I never doubt how Ancelotti's tactic to win each match in UCL. While Lampard, has no experience to win UCL as a coach. I'm not sure how Lampard to build a tactic for the current Chelsea squad. But it looks not very convincing if we look at the current players and their motivation in playing.

As you said, I agree. Ancelotti is a coach who has experience and has had a fantastic run in the Champions League mainly because he has won several titles. Meanwhile, Chelsea and a number of their new players are struggling to find their identity again after being slumped this season. The Champions League is difficult, so we can't be sure which team will win before playing.

We all agree that Real Madrid has a better situation to win UCL, they have a more experienced coach and a stronger squad. However, it is just a stats or theory. The result of the match can be surprising or very different from our prediction.

At the moment, the Real Madrid team can be considered the most favorite team to win the Champions League title. The main reason for this is Benzema's full fitness and his return to form. Last season we saw a Madrid side that won the Champions League thanks to Benzema's performance. However, their match strategy was amazing. And if Benzema can continue with such consistency, Madrid has the best chance of winning the Champions League title this season as well. Even if they don't win the La Liga title, maybe Madrid will win the Champions League title.

[CryptoPanda]

Benzema has scored a hat-trick in the last two matches. At the same time, the Madrid players are in excellent form. With the way Madrid has performed in the last few matches, their chances of defeat against Chelsea seem slim. Even then I would say that the Chelsea team should not be underestimated. Overall Chelsea's performance has been poor, but their squad is strong. And the players in the squad are very talented. Chelsea has the ability to beat teams like Madrid if the players play well. And so if Ancelotti wants to win this match, the Madrid players must play very carefully.

Karim Benzema's top form will be needed in their coming games especially when they face Chelsea in their champions league quarter finals meeting. Real Madrid has been quite impressive in their recent games, the squad is strong and will be a tough opponent for Lampard. Though Frank Lampard will be returning to a different and better squad, he will face Ancelloti's Real Madrid in the quest for champions league glory. Chelsea sit at 11th position in the premier league currently, I doubt they can still make top 5 at the end of the season even with Lampard being handed a star studded squad.

[CryptopreneurBrainboss]

I think it is true and the players will respect him more than Graham Potter. Graham Potter I think neither has something to show as a player nor does he really as a coach. Lampard was a damn good player and he has some experience as well as a coach. On top of that he won't be asking a Guardiola-like salary.

Graham Potter has no record in England while Lampard is one of the most respected football in England and at Chelsea he's a god, he's the highest scoring player for the club while been a midfielder. Hardly before you see midfielder getting the top scorer title but Lampard did that with ease so obviously he will be respected at the club and the players will give him much respect then Graham Potter. Although it isn't just respect ww want as fans, we need something to take home, we want to see some positivity with the clubs. We want to see the players pick up form and most importantly, we await Lampard influence on Mason Mount.

Karim Benzema's top form will be needed in their coming games especially when they face Chelsea in their champions league quarter finals meeting. Real Madrid has been quite impressive in their recent games, the squad is strong and will be a tough opponent for Lampard.

Karim Benzema does enjoy scoring against Chelsea and now that he's  inform, that's going to be a problem for the Chelsea defense. Under Graham Potter we lack defensive understanding between the defensive players as our goal keeper was always exposed when the opposition side comes attacking which is why we have conceded lots of goals this season. I feel Frank Lampard should use the 3-5-3 formation. We don't look defensively strong when we play a four man defense.

With all due respect, but I doubt that we will be able to see very much. We have seen a great example now that a coach can't do much within a week and if a team performs better out of a sudden, it might have just been variance. Look how Bayern Munich lost in the DFB Pokal after they sacked their coach. Lampard might be able to do some stuff psychologically, but he can't really do strategic elements. A tiny few little things, but I doubt that it is what Chelsea now needs. He can only appeal to the players and remind them of the qualities they have and that they need to put their souls into it. A lot of the players Chelsea now has are amazing in technique and everything else, but they don't function as a unit. That is the one huge difference compared to Real Madrid. They working like a charm right now. Everything has its place, everyone has their role and they just go for it. Who could believe that Chelsea would score so few goals with the team they have? You don't have to teach them to score goals. They lack confidence I guess.

It will be really bad for Real Madrid if they can't secure a victory in the quarter finals of the Champions League after a good performance. Because if Real Madrid can secure this year's Champions League title, I think this team will be one step ahead of all the teams in the world.

[Iranus]

Karim Benzema's top form will be needed in their coming games especially when they face Chelsea in their champions league quarter finals meeting. Real Madrid has been quite impressive in their recent games, the squad is strong and will be a tough opponent for Lampard.

Karim Benzema does enjoy scoring against Chelsea and now that he's  inform, that's going to be a problem for the Chelsea defense. Under Graham Potter we lack defensive understanding between the defensive players as our goal keeper was always exposed when the opposition side comes attacking which is why we have conceded lots of goals this season. I feel Frank Lampard should use the 3-5-3 formation. We don't look defensively strong when we play a four man defense.

Chelsea's defense is very weak. But not only the defense, but Chelsea's overall performance is also weak. This team is not able to perform well especially due to the lack of any specific good match strategy. However, if Chelsea's defensive players do not play well against Real Madrid, they have no chance of winning. Real Madrid is in great form right now. Madrid has probably scored 10 goals in their last two matches. Both Vii and Benzema are in good form now. And so it will be very difficult for Chelsea to counter Madrid's attacks. Today Real Madrid will play against Wolves in the Premier League match. I am looking forward to seeing how Madrid performs in this match.

[Despairo]

At the moment, the Real Madrid team can be considered the most favorite team to win the Champions League title. The main reason for this is Benzema's full fitness and his return to form. Last season we saw a Madrid side that won the Champions League thanks to Benzema's performance. However, their match strategy was amazing. And if Benzema can continue with such consistency, Madrid has the best chance of winning the Champions League title this season as well. Even if they don't win the La Liga title, maybe Madrid will win the Champions League title.

Nope, Real Madrid isn't the most favorite club to win the Champions league title. Manchester City, Bayern Munich and Napoli are more favorited than Real Madrid. Benzema performance weren't stable, the last 2 matches he scored hattrick, but he almost did nothing in the first leg Copa del Rey and against Real Betis. Benzema often play good in the second leg especially when in lose situation, this is the reason why Real Madrid is unpredictable.

[BlackBoss_]

Nope, Real Madrid isn't the most favorite club to win the Champions league title. Manchester City, Bayern Munich and Napoli are more favorited than Real Madrid.

Were they more favorite than Real Madrid in the past season? What ending did they have and what did Real Madrid achieve in the past season?

We all know about that and again, we can not under estimate in this season. Especially let's see how Real Madrid destroyed Barcelona at Camp Nou last weekend.

Benzema performance weren't stable, the last 2 matches he scored hattrick, but he almost did nothing in the first leg Copa del Rey and against Real Betis. Benzema often play good in the second leg especially when in lose situation, this is the reason why Real Madrid is unpredictable.

Benzema got more injuries in this season and in early months of season, his contribution was limited by some injuries. I see Benzema has gradually gotten his best performance back. With few more matches left in Champions League, Real Madrid will do reserve Benzema for their most important matches. Facing with Chelsea looks like to help Real Madrid to have a slot in semi final stage at which no club can think Real Madrid are not strong enough to take a trophy again, a sixth one in last few years.

[len01]

Chelsea's defense is very weak. But not only the defense, but Chelsea's overall performance is also weak. This team is not able to perform well especially due to the lack of any specific good match strategy. However, if Chelsea's defensive players do not play well against Real Madrid, they have no chance of winning. Real Madrid is in great form right now. Madrid has probably scored 10 goals in their last two matches. Both Vii and Benzema are in good form now. And so it will be very difficult for Chelsea to counter Madrid's attacks. Today Real Madrid will play against Wolves in the Premier League match. I am looking forward to seeing how Madrid performs in this match.

no, don't get me wrong that Chelsea is also currently trying to plan to have a strong performance to meet Real Madrid and at least Chelsea can beat Banzema that will be much better.
because at the moment Banzema is the best player from Real Madrid who must really be guarded because surprisingly he is always looking for loopholes to score goals.
In the upcoming match maybe Chelsea won't look convincing but I'm sure Chelsea will be able to give their best performance and at least be able to draw.
even though if you look at the Spanish League matches, Real Madrid has decreased performance and this is what is a concern for Real Madrid fans, they are afraid that in the Champions League, Madrid will lose to Chelsea.

[Zilon]

It will be really bad for Real Madrid if they can't secure a victory in the quarter finals of the Champions League after a good performance. Because if Real Madrid can secure this year's Champions League title, I think this team will be one step ahead of all the teams in the world.

Unfortunately this season won't be like the previous years where Madrid won the La Liga, Champions League and everything in between. There are many teams who have also kept good form this season who are even more qualified than Madrid. Napoli is on fire, Bayern now has Tuchel, Mancity is on heavy fire and Haaland is eager to lift his first ever champions League. Madrid will have to pay dearly if the must reach the final to start with. The competition is too stiff to believe Madrid has advantage not even with the return of Benzema
