UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[Hyphen(-)]

Tomorrow Manchester United will play Brighton at Old Trafford. I'm worried that they will drop points considering Brighton's good form so far. Several important players are still injured, while Antony is also absent due to his case. I hope Manchester United's defense is fine tomorrow, and they also need to prepare well for the Champions League.

Apart from Manchester United’s poor performance, Brighton has always been a tough opponent for Manchester United.
Checking the statistics of their last five matches they played together, Brighton won three and Manchester United won two, and checking their previous match performances, you will find out that so far this season, Brighton has won three and lost just one match against West Ham United, which is very okay, while Manchester United has lost two matches against Tottenham and Arsenal, respectively. If we judge the outcome of their match based on these statistics, it is clear that Brighton stand a chance to win the match because Manchester United is suffering some injuries and will play without some players due to some personal reasons.The match will not be easy for them all, but at the end, I am afraid that Manchester United might lose the match because Brighton is on form.

First of all, Manchester United are not in good form. Their performances have been erratic in the Premier League. United are not playing well against big teams.
Secondly, Manchester United's attacking players are not playing well. Ten Hag cannot overcome this weakness very quickly.

Third, in the first match of the Champions League, Manchester United will play against the strong Bayern Munich. And Bayern Munich is one of the most favorite teams in this year's Champions League. United are going to start the Champions League by playing against such a team. And if United do not perform well, there is no chance of winning. On the other hand, Bayern Munich will definitely play to win. United's erratic performance is a chance Munich coach Tuchel will use very well. If Manchester United play the way they have in their last few matches, they will surely lose against Munich.

Not only that, but Manchester United also has to start their Champions League season with a game away from home against Bayern Munich and that makes it even heavier for them to play freely and find their best performance. But maybe it is the right game for them because it could either end in a wake up call or in a success that gives them confidence. Bayern is also not at their best at the moment.

But you said they play erratic and that hits the nail on the head. Their performances are so independent of each other. The only consistency you can see is that they are inconsistent and that they have problems even with the weaker teams.

Manchester United of a truth isn't in the best form their life at the moment but i don't think that is gonna stop them from putting out an impressive performance in their first UEFA Champions League game of the season against Bayern Munich. United is a big European club that has all it takes to beat their German counterparts and even at Allianz Arena, they can take all three points from that game.
Bayern Munich who were outclassed by Manchester City in the competition last season will surely want to have a better season and with the help of their new striker Harry Kane, they're surely gonna be a big threat to other European clubs.

There will be no miracles in this match. I believe Bayern Munich will easily defeat Manchester United. Manchester United shows their squad has no hope when facing the opponent who is supposed to be this season's champion. What Manchester United needs to do is protect their goal so they don't have to lose a big match in the first match of the Champions League season.  Erik ten Hag needs to think of a solution to stop Bayern Munich's strong strikers. If they lose this match, the recruits' morale will drop significantly.

I am a big football fan because I believe there is always some hope for unexpected results, but in this case I would agree that there is a very thin scope for potential success for Manchester United and with success I also mean a draw against Bayern Munich. Today Bayern Munich tied their game in the Bundesliga, so it is not impossible to win a point against them, but in the Champions League I also think that Bayern Munich will make sure to play their best.

In the last season in the Champions League Bayern Munich also had a great start and even worse for the other teams, Bayern's defense was strong and rock solid during the games as they only conceded two goals in those six games against opponents like Barcelona and Inter. This is easier said than done and Manchester United would have to significantly improve if they want to score against them.

It is not necessary to exaggerate the advantage of Bayern Munich over Manchester United so much because the German team is also not all right, which is further evidence of the last match and the home draw with Bayer. Yes, Bayern looks like a more solid team so far, but anything can happen in a separate match, and so far, in my humble opinion, Munich does not look like the team that is so much higher class that it can win any game. Moreover, the Champions League matches are generally a separate story with a separate attitude from the teams that participate in it.

However Newcastle's squad quality isn't as good as Chelsea's firstly. Secondly they don't have as much experience as Chelsea in this tournament. They aren't as big as them in short. They don't have a mentality that is as strong as Tuchel's Chelsea either now.
Considering all of this the biggest achievement they can get is to qualify for next round in my opinion.

I don't believe anyone is expecting Newcastle to do anything like what Chelsea did in the season they won the champion league against all odds, Chelsea are actually a big club and I'm surprised they don't have more champions league trophy to their name. The current Chelsea squad (when they get their shit together) can do more damage then the Newcastle team. In the champions league experience has a major role to play and that's why we won the title ahead of Manchuria city because it was their first time getting to the final but they won the next time they made it to the final which is the just concluded season. Newcastle progressing in the champion league is going to make them weak in the premier league because they can't handle both pressure.

It looks like you edited the post unsuccessfully because these are not my words 
I see no point in comparing Newcastle and Chelsea - these are completely two different clubs (even if Chelsea are doing worse now). I compare Newcastle to Porto or any other underdog that once every 20 years has a chance to surprise everyone.

Chelsea have good records in EPL and UEFA Champions League, the thing is just that the club is having some tough time, trying to build up and return to elite levels with the big clubs. Comparing Newcastle and Chelsea are entirely two different things, because the blues have quality players and are weigh better than the magpies presently. Eddie Howe is even finding it difficult to start winning games, there's alot to handle for the club, probably they're at the least of their performance, losing to every competitive EPL clubs they come across. But this challenging time doesn't last for long.

Barcelona face easily opponent teams in this group drawing depend last season they have difficult opponent from Bayern Munich until Inter Milan and can't qualified to next round. Its seems difference with this season of group stage opponent teams, Barcelona teams opponent looks not difficult against Porto, Shaktar and Antwerp have bigger chance for the first time in last two season for qualifying to the next round. Opening Champion League matches group stage, Barcelona against Antwerp I think great opportunity for Barcelona first three points in group stage match before facing difficult teams Porto or Shakstar upcoming match.

Only Barcelona has an easy group stage this season, in the Champions League, Barcelona will win all of there match in the group, and I don't think Barcelona will lose even one match in the group stage unless they don't put effort. I believe Porto will give them a rough time in the group competition, but I am confident they will still beat them. Barcelona has many players now who can help the club fight for the champions league trophy, but I don't think Barcelona can win it now, because Manchester City are stronger than them. I'm just thinking that if Manchester City, Real Madrid, or Bayern Munich do not carry the champions league, I can consider it for Barcelona.

If it was the strongest Barcelona there has ever been then yes, this would be 6 games and 6 easy wins for them, but this isn't the best Barcelona. I would say that the games against Porto could be the two games when Barcelona is facing some serious resistance, especially when they have to play in Portugal. I think beating Porto at home is never easy, not even when Barcelona is in good shape. This doesn't mean the group victory is at risk because that would be an unprecedented event for a top club in such a group. I don't know if that ever happened before.

[asriloni]

I don't know still wrong with Manchester United and the only thing I can say about them is being unlucky in some games and about some players.
We can't blame Ten Hag for the bad things happening on this team because he also hired good players like Mason Mount but sadly even this player got injured.
Manchester United should get thing together and get ready for the Chmapnios Leageu maths or they will lose everything in the grouping stage.

If we can't blame ten hag and the who the hell is responsible for all the issues in manchester united? The problem that has been occuring in MU related to the sancho was also involving him. Im willing to see where things take this club.
MU will be mising some important players which are also affecting the performance of the club. Brighton will send an immense pressure to the manchester united.
Manchester united is now in disastrous season. Im wondernig what kind of line up that will be used by MU against brighton. Brighton is strong club now. MU may able to miss full points.

[Rockstarguy]

Does anyone think that United may have trouble getting out of the group stages? I mean it looks like Greenwood had to be sent away, Sancho is having trouble, Anthony may have to be cut, Amrabat is injured, Varane is injured and there was one more player that mattered who was injured but I forgot who it was.

So, they are doing quite terribly right now and the team is in chaos at the moment. They have Bayern in their group which I am 100% sure that will end up being the first on the group, and the other two teams are Galatasaray and Copenhagen, do you think either of those teams have a chance to beat United because all the things going around with them? I feel like there is a possibility of it happening for sure.

Manchester United are really dealing with these problems as well recently. But I don't think they will be affected badly because of this news. At the moment they need to improve their current performance. Because they couldn't make a good start to the season. Even in a match they win they don't play convincingly well.

When it comes to their group in the Champions League Bayern Munich can already be seen finished as leader. If we think about which one of Galatasaray and Copenhagen might make difficulties for Manchester United I can answer it as Galatasaray. Because they have strengthened their squad with really quality players. But can they collect at least 3 points against Manchester United? It is still really difficult I think.

First of all, Manchester United are not in good form. Their performances have been erratic in the Premier League. United are not playing well against big teams.
Secondly, Manchester United's attacking players are not playing well. Ten Hag cannot overcome this weakness very quickly.

Third, in the first match of the Champions League, Manchester United will play against the strong Bayern Munich. And Bayern Munich is one of the most favorite teams in this year's Champions League.

If Manchester United play the way they have in their last few matches, they will surely lose against Munich.

Manchester United  meeting with Bayern Munich won't be easy because Manchester United seems to be struggling in their performance thus season and team like Bayern Munich will try the best they can to see they are able to defeat Manchester United in the game . Manchester United don't seems like what the coach can be able to solve in a short time, Bayern Munich has better squad than that of Manchester United,  some players of Manchester United are not in a good form.

Bayern Munich are not so tough you know, Yes they have past records of winning the Champions League and also attacking as they should but Manchester United remains a big club and can displace Bayern Munich from the top of that group.
They should face themselves on Tuesday, I really have that believe they won't get more than a draw against Manchester United. Manchester United needs time to create a good side. Struggles just like they had last season.

Bayern Munich still should go top of the group, Manchester United can be unfortunate, they can go from top to  bottom but qualification for the next group stage would be a must.

PSG losses against Nice which is a garbage team in the league 1. Today was shit for PSG. Im seeing now if people yelling PSG as the most promising club on its group while the reality said the opposite thing about that and it was only nice.
I can't even imagine if it was newcastle or dortmund. I will not put PSG as favorite team to win the group F. PSG is still shitty performance.

I would rather than pick newcaste/acmilan to win the group stage rather than PSG which is still showing shitty performance on its local league. PSG is still in the disastrous season.
Enrique was just an overrated coach.

No chance for PSG to qualify for play off if the club is still showing awful performance. It shows how inconsistent PSG is.

I think PSG is like a half-finished team. They are inconsistent and unable to fulfill the title of being one of the richest teams in the world. Defeat against Nice will put them at a disadvantage because this will have an impact on the players' mentality. It is not impossible that players will choose to leave the club when they see that they have no chance of winning the championship. I bet Dortmund and AC Milan will qualify for the play offs. Newcastle is a strong team but I'm not sure they can provide a level playing field for Milan and Dortmund.

With its current form and PSG joining the most difficult group with AC Milan, Newcastle and Dortmund, I don't think there is any possibility for PSG to qualify from this group.
IN this season, a lot of changes have occurred in the PSG team and this has not made the team better, but on the contrary, Luis Enrique, who has just managed the PSG team which was widely anticipated to be able to have a positive impact, but it turns out to be the same and even worse.

With the team's performance decreasing, the team's mentality will also get worse and players who are no longer wholeheartedly playing for a team that has no chance of becoming champions, especially star players like Mbappe, of course this makes him increasingly uncomfortable with the team.

Paris Saint Germaine who unfortunately happens to find themselves in the most difficult group in this season's UEFA Champions League competition didn't show that they have all it takes to progress to the knockout stages of the competition with their result and performance in the league game against Nice yesterday.
Failing to beat an average club like Nice even with the support of their home fans has raised eyebrows among football fans across the globe wether Luis Enrique's tactical abilities can help his PSG side make it out of the group that's been tagged the group of death. There's no way that defeat isn't gonna affect the mentality of the club players and also their performance in their first UEFA Champions League match of the season.

Paris Saint Germaine who unfortunately happens to find themselves in the most difficult group in this season's UEFA Champions League competition

You can say it with Newcastle United, it's more fairly to say about that with them. Because it is their first season in Champions League after many years but it's not fair and correct to say it with PSG. They are one of best candidates for Champions League trophy and they want to win it many years. So it's not nightmare for a champion to fall in to such group because to win Champions League, they must beat all strongest opponents.

didn't show that they have all it takes to progress to the knockout stages of the competition with their result and performance in the league game against Nice yesterday.

That defeat is actually bad preparation of PSG for Champions League. They likely have bad squad and performance with time and I think their not too dominating performance in Ligue 1 last season is a begging of something worse for them. Starting with this season, PSG can lose Ligue 1 title, lose Mbappe and have to rebuild their team completely. Why not?

Newcastle is a strong team but I'm not sure they can provide a level playing field for Milan and Dortmund.

regarding PSG, which lost to Nice yesterday, it was very disappointing and raised doubts about whether PSG would be able to get through this preliminary round and on the one hand, PSG appearance was unstable after the departure of Messi and Neymar, which ended up only relying on Mbappe as a mainstay player but other players were unable to contribute. well in every match.

and for Bayern munich, they competed at home against Leverkusen but were unable to secure a win, which raised doubts about whether Munich would be able to qualify when competing against a team that was equal to Munich, whereas in the domestic league, Bayern Munich was unable to get the victory that must always be secured in the UCL later.

but of the two teams like PSG and Bayern munich, the one that still has hope is that Bayern Munich is a little more consistent.

[rendravolt]

Group H may already be certain that Barcelona will be the group winners if they don't suffer the same fate as last season. However, the other three teams such as Porto, Shakstar, Antwerp are dark horse teams which could become a nightmare for Barcelona at any time. We certainly already know that what is shown in the domestic league is very good but sometimes it is not the same as what is done in the Champions League and Barcelona did that last season. Despite all that, I will still favor Barcelona of course and the runners up will probably be Porto or Shaktar.

I can't remember which season, but Shakhtar beat Real Madrid in an away match. Maybe the same thing will happen to Barcelona. Although they could probably be in first place. I think it will be Barcelona or Porto. These two clubs are stronger than Shakhtar and Antwerp in my opinion.

It's true that this happened quite a long time ago, precisely 3 years ago, in the group stage. At that time it was not an away match but at that time Shakhtar were the hosts but whatever the reason, a big team like Real Madrid should not have lost. I think if you look at the same situation now, it's possible that Barcelona will experience something similar if they don't really try to get points in every match. Xavi must be more demanding this time to take the Barcelona squad to the next round and not be allowed to fall in the group phase. However, looking at the performance of one of the young players, Lamine Yamal, it seems like Barcelona will be much stronger this time.

[Velvet78]

Atletico Madrid have a really lucky draw in their hands now. All of the teams in their group are less powerful than them. I think it is time for Atletico Madrid to show their strength in the Champions League by taking this opportunity. Because their performance here in the previous season was just terrible.

Just hope if atletico madrid will not see other clubs as under perform club at this moment. Feyenoord and lazio could become equal competitors for atletico madrid.



Here's odds for upcoming matches in group E. Atletico may be able to dominate this group. Atletico will face lazio. Lazio can't be called as a weak opponent for atletico madrid.
It's hard to know which team that will win the game caused by there is only a slight difference between atletico's odds compared with lazio at this moment.

Of course Lazio isn't a weak opponent but I just wanted to say that Atletico Madrid are stronger than them all. Otherwise technically Lazio is the toughest opponent in the group for them. I didn't know that the first game was going to be between them. Playing away against a team like Lazio might be tough for them.

However I still expect to see Atletico Madrid showing their quality. Even if they get one point it is still not bad in my opinion. Because they are good enough to collect at least 4 points against them these days. They started the season strongly.

It is not impossible that players will choose to leave the club when they see that they have no chance of winning the championship. I bet Dortmund and AC Milan will qualify for the play offs. Newcastle is a strong team but I'm not sure they can provide a level playing field for Milan and Dortmund.

To be precise PSG is still not consistent in Ligue 1, but I predict PSG can qualify from the group phase. Because Dortmund is not better than PSG, the depth of their squads is very different. There may be a slight difference with AC Milan in group F, Stefano Pioli squad has benefited from the good performance shown in Serie A. As for Newcastle, I think they are the least consistent, in the EPL they have only won once.

Overall, the composition of Group F is the most difficult to predict, but the results of matches in each club domestic league can provide some reference. PSG, who just suffered a defeat against Nice, I predict will bounce back in the group phase match against Dortmund.
