UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[giammangiato]

I don't understand with this, isn't Newcastle should be on the second position since they're leading in goal difference? Newcastle has 2 points while Dortmund has -1 points, but Dortmund overtake Newcastle's position.

However Milan seems hard to be qualify into the next rounds.

More than it seems difficult, I would say impossible.
Milan are out of the Champions League, I am a little disappointed and I dont understand how they managed to make such a poor impression in Europe while they are not doing too badly in the league.
Chiaro has ups and downs, like all teams

[Volgastallion]

I dont know if Milan is finished, all the teams in that group are playing really irregular, for example take Newcastle, they play like shit in Milan and deserve to lose, after that they destroy PSG like nothing, and now when you can think they are gonna make the same with Dortmund they lose in their home so.... its not so clear for me.

Haaland 2 goals from him yesterday makes Manchester City can able to beat Young Boys. They have won all the matches in the three matches so far Group G in the UEFA Champions League. Manchester City are top of Group G in the UEFA Champions League. We know they won the Champions League last season that the biggest candidate to win this season.

Everybody knows the nature of Haaland to be a goal machine and knows how to utilize any small opportunity to score the only thing Haaland needs is a well-positioned ball and he will score and that is why De Brune's absence is affecting haalands performance in a way De Brune always give haaland good assist. if you carefully observe the game between Manchester City and Young Boys there is no way even with a miracle, that Young Boys would have won, so it's an already known game and an easy one to predict.  Even Group G is no worthy opponent for Manchester City so Manchester City will still lead till they graduate to the other stage, Manchester City is meeting young boys next month it is another sure win for the citys.

PSG might not have all the superstars like they did before but then they still have quality players like Dembele, Kolo muani, Mbappe e.t.c. I don’t know why the coach is finding it difficult to make things happen. With the way PSG are playing and don’t forget they lost lost 4-1 against Newcastle. I won’t be surprised if PSG get knocked out in the group stage.

I think it was just a single misfire and it won't happen again. At least looking at the way they started the game against Milan there is a feeling that they will win this match. So far in the match there was only one shot from Milan and it was not on goal, but possession is on PSG's side, and it's not just possession, they hold the ball well

Ball possession is all good and nice, but PSG after almost 25 minutes wasn't able to have a single shot. I am not talking about shot on target, but so far they weren't able to play an attack until the end and shoot.

When you read the names of their attacking line it's crazy and hard to imagine how that is even possible when there is Mbappe, Dembele and Kolo Muani. This is, if they all play at their full potential and are all having a good day and are in great shape, one of the best attacking lines in football I think. I am wondering how they can play so innocuously.

But in the end, they kept possession of the ball and won. And the victory was quite serious, they left no chance for Milan. Regarding the attacking line, what's wrong with it? They did what they needed to do, to the fullest extent, with Mbappe and Muani scoring goals

Group F teams are inconsistent in their performance, recording an incredible victory and losing the next game, sounds funny to me. I'm confident Paris Saint Germain will qualify out because they're starting to bounce back to good shape in league games, Luis Enrique doing great job for Les Parisiens this season, despite his poor starting, he's still able to deliver in good shape. As for Newcastle, Borrusia Dortmund, they're competitive and one might end up Europa and the other qualifying with PSG. While AC Milan have no ambitious plans to explore their performance.

[Leviathan.007]

Newcastle are very unlucky to be in this group... I'd probably say it's the group of death... But Borussia and Newcastle still have a good chance to be in second place... But Milan have to show their best football to try to get out of the group... But I'm more interested in how Newcastle will play...

Well that's what Newcastle have to do except keep trying to win in the next match.
Our guess is that Dortmund and Newcastle might be able to compete for second place while PSG is still safe at the top of the table....
For Milan a bit skeptical they look very difficult to be in this group of death, can Milan be with the last remaining matches?

I feel PSG and Newcastle will probably qualify, it is possible that Dortmund could take over the position. It's still very difficult who deserves it.

Based on my personal point of view, Milan's style of play is not much different from Newcastle's. However, that doesn't mean they are playing pramagtis. It's just that their style of play doesn't really rely on tactics and strategy. btw, what I say is not necessarily the same as other people's opinions. These two teams tend to rely on how to play and win the match. That's why, in yesterday's match, I tried my luck betting on Dortmund. because Terzic prefers to anticipate when his team is about to play their matches, especially in crucial matches.

As for Milan, I'm not sure I need to comment too much on this team. but what is certain is that Milan still has matches to play in this group F phase, we'll see how Stepano Pioli's squad goes through their remaining matches in this group phase.
Talking about Newcastle, they are currently in 2nd place, having the same points as Dortmund.
On the fourth matchday, Dortmund will be the home team. it could be that the situation is reversed. Dortmund won their match again over Newcastle at Signal Iduna Park, BvB headquartrs. Thus, Dortmund's opportunity to qualify for the next phase is very wide open. Meanwhile, PSG is now in first place in the group phase.  In the next match they will face Milan, if PSG wins again.  That means, who knows what Milan's fate will be in this Group F phase.

I could never predict this result in this match because AC Milan is not a team in the bad form and I was expecting to see them win this match against PSG easily because PSG with Enrique is not performing well and even in the French League they are still not in the first place of the table.
After this result they got, PSG is now in a better situation and there's less pressure on Enrique.

AC Milan really performed poorly in the Champions League this season, they were unable to get even one win in their last 3 matches. The defeat with a score of 3-0 makes us think that ac milan is really weak in this match.

Yeah, we could say that, because after all Milan is actually a big club. especially in the Champions League when Milan lost to PSG, maybe this could happen. but the very unfortunate problem was that they lost 3-0 without a single goal in return. Not only that, the performance of the Milan players was also not as good as usual. We understand that maybe because some of Milan's main players couldn't play in the match, that doesn't mean they couldn't compete optimally, right? This result is certainly very disappointing. Moreover, they are currently at the bottom of the group phase standings.

Indeed, they still have several matches left and if they cannot optimize their abilities again and win, then it will really be risky for them not to qualify for the group. because unfortunately Milan is in the group with the toughest competition and every club in that group has a chance to pass the qualifications. because they are a really big club.

Facts about Barcelona, they are not competent when it comes to elite competitions, always playing like some random average team but when it comes to La Liga, their performance is outstanding and incredible, they're ranked #1 favorites to lift the domestic league trophy. This is the exact ratings that Real Madrid utilized to outperformed the blaugrana. However this current UCL might turn out to be different for them. Barcelona made mistakes in the past, they looked forward to correcting them because Xavi Hernandez keen on improving his team's performance and setting a good reputation.

Last season and this season of course their performance has been different and it is all thanks to the polish of Xavi who was able to recruit several experienced players to compete in the Champions League. Of course they will target to qualify for the round of 16 and can also go far in the Champions League this season. Xavi succeeded in recruiting Gundogan and Cancelo as quite experienced players and was also supported by the good performance of old and new players so that they were ready to fight aggressively this season, especially in the Champions League.

Joao Felix also showed his best qualities on Barcelona front line, he was able to blend in quite well with the game scheme implemented by Xavi. In fact, he is always Xavi mainstay in every match. And also xavi is able to give birth to new star players by providing opportunities for young players to show their qualities like Lamine Yamal.

Nobody expected such a big win from PSG and it was just too easy. Milan has a great team but just couldnt find a way to score a goal,they had some big chances but just couldnt convert them to goals. While Mbappe on the other side showed some big magic and leaded PSG to a win. PSG aint looking good this season but this win might turn the season around.

Manchester City are top of Group G in the UEFA Champions League. We know they won the Champions League last season that the biggest candidate to win this season.

The game between Manchester City and Young Boys is not hard to predict as their performances are obviously not even close to Manchester City's, so from the start of the game, I predicted that Manchester would win the game. However, Halaand scoring goals is not something we will be surprised by. We all know how the player always uses small opportunities to score goals. Halaand always utilises small chances to score goals without wasting much time as far as a balance assist is given to him, and that is why De Bryune assistants affect the player in my opinion, because if you carefully look at how the player performance is going this season, it is obvious that is not the same as last season, which I think is because of the De Bryune absence, the guy has been assisting Erlin Halland to score goals for the squad.

Manchester City are top of Group G in the UEFA Champions League. We know they won the Champions League last season that the biggest candidate to win this season.

City are favorites to top that group and also favorites to retain their CL trophy. I always believed all that was needed was for City to win their first CL trophy, and then they would go on to dominate Europe for quite a long time, we'd see about that starting from this season, but just by looking at the other contenders, i don't think any of them is as strong as Manchester City.

Real Madrid are the biggest contenders that are very much capable of stopping City, Bayern are good, but i don't think they are convincing enough to win the CL this season. Pep is a serial winner and now that he has tasted CL triumph with this team, i expect that there would be many more.

[Renampun]

I have seen some data focused on different areas for the teams in the Champions League. Galatasaray seem really ambitious from this data. The players are just very hungry for winning. We watched this determination in their last two matches also. Their opponents were the toughest ones in the group but they still showed an incredible performance. 

But the main problem with Galatasaray is finishing. Because they are the 2nd team with wasting most number of goal opportunities coming right behind Manchester City according to this data.

The manager Okan Buruk had better focus on improving the finishing more if they want to get positive results more.

Galatasaray's performance is still better than Man Utd since the UCL started, facing Bayern yesterday, Galatasaray managed to excel in possession of the ball and succeeded in making 20 'shots', in the second leg, the match will take place at the Allianz Arena, Bayern will definitely appear even more fierce, I wonder what strategy will be buruk use later.

For Man Utd, they actually appeared disappointing, they were only able to win 1-0 at home against Copenhagen, in the second leg, it will definitely be quite a tough match for them looking at the statistics of yesterday's match.

Real Madrid is usually good in the UCL, and they continue to dominate that competition ahead of any other side, giving them the most UCL titles. They may be competent in the league, but they must exert more effort while competing with Barcelona, who has dominated the league game more than they have. Real Madrid is one of the favourites to win the Champions League this season. Barcelona is also present, but their chances are slim when compared to Real Madrid, who have far more experience and titles than Barcelona.

Haaland is a scoring machine, and I expected him to score more goals in this game. They have been performing quite well in the Champions League and are the favourites to top their current group. Much more goals could have been expected against a team like Young Boys, but a 2:0 win is not a terrible result for a team that is leading the group.

This is exactly the main issue for Galatasaray now. I agree with you. We can take the Bayern Munich match as an example for this. Kerem Aktürkoğlu wasted a lot of big goal chances in the first half. It was like the same scenario from their Manchester United match previously. Especially Kerem is in need of improving his finishing skills.

If Okan Buruk manages to help him do better at scoring goals Galatasaray can increase their chance of qualifying for last 16 quite a lot.

Barcelona failed to reach the last 16 in the last two seasons, so this is the perfect season to expect them to return to the last 16. The match will be even more difficult in the knockout round, especially if both teams are strong teams from their respective groups.

Facts about Barcelona, they are not competent when it comes to elite competitions, always playing like some random average team but when it comes to La Liga, their performance is outstanding and incredible, they're ranked #1 favorites to lift the domestic league trophy. This is the exact ratings that Real Madrid utilized to outperformed the blaugrana. However this current UCL might turn out to be different for them. Barcelona made mistakes in the past, they looked forward to correcting them because Xavi Hernandez keen on improving his team's performance and setting a good reputation.

We can't really take the performance of barcelona in UCL as a measurement of the club. I meant the competitors of barcelona in the UCL was weak teams. Barclona may get stolen by real madrid in the upcoming game. Madrid was not only coming with the different squad.
This club is also having everything to beat barcelona at this season started from a good attacking midfielder and striker at the same time. Some wingest that were coming back again after they was hibernated like vini due to the injury and many more.
I think that there's no reason to call that if barcelona will be dominating the current game. In fact, barcelona is slowly but surely was going through hard fixtures that will come soon.

Barcelona was also playing so well in UCL but it was only against weakest teams that being placed in the same time. Im still doubting barcelona at this moment. it seems like that this club will not able to beat madrid with the current suqad.
The club needs someone like lewandowski. Barcelona didn't have great attacker this time. Lewandoski was always able positioning himself better than barcfelona

Haaland is a scoring machine, and I expected him to score more goals in this game. They have been performing quite well in the Champions League and are the favourites to top their current group. Much more goals could have been expected against a team like Young Boys, but a 2:0 win is not a terrible result for a team that is leading the group.

Most teams do play more of defensive games and I noticed that was the kind of game Young boys tried to play yesterday. They knew it it would be very difficult to defeat a team like Manchester City so at least a draw would be better. Manchester City toping the  group stage is something that everyone expected and they are more likely to win the league again if other teams do not play better. I wont call it luck but based on their performance they deserve to get the title again. Although with the likes of Bayern Munich, Arsenal, Barcelona and other good team it would be difficult for Manchester City. These clubs i mentioned are capable of beating Manchester City. If am wrong then let me know but Arsenal has already proven themselves.

Actually, the score was 1-3 and there was even a moment in the match when Young Boys equalized the score and this happiness lasted for 15 minutes ) An interesting thing happens to Haaland in the Champions League, when he disappears as a scorer without scoring several matches, as well as in decisive matches. However, 2 goals in the match seriously corrected the statistics of the striker in the current tournament. Still, 2 goals in 3 matches sound much better than 0 )

This is only done by teams that tend to have quite weak attacking line performance so they will be more careful and prioritize defense making it difficult for opponents to attack.
Meanwhile strong team like Manchester City will prioritize the front line because they are aiming to win by getting more goals so they can always save full points in every match.
Manchester City have played several matches and they have performed very well it is very likely that Manchester City can still enter the final again for the UCL this season.

We know that Arsenal, Bayern Munich, Barcelona and plus Real Madrid are strong teams that can even prevent Manchester City from continuing to win but here I believe that Pep players can overcome them all.

Some people don't believe or think that Manchester City is in bad shape because in the Premier League they have appeared during this season and have suffered several defeats but it is too early to assume that Manchester City is bad.

Even right now we are having end of the Match-day 3 but still things are going very interesting here I have to add just not only Manchester City game few other games were also easy to predict with the teams performance and quality, and I am happy I was able to secure good wins in this round as I have few bet builders and multi bets as well and all works good, but just one give me shock as this was biggest with Atlético Madrid fail to secure win which was also expected at the end Celtic done good job and have one point from this game.

I secure Manchester city win with Haaland to score and match will be over3.5 this all works and give me good profit and few multi bets like Leipzig, PSG and City will win, and Porto game will be having both teams to score with Newcastle United lost was also unexpected but still this was not big damage.

If you look at Barcelona's performance in La Liga, I also doubt that Barcelona this season will be able to go far in the UCL, but currently in the group phase the Barcelona team is very lucky to be joined by a team whose quality is weaker than them so up to now there are no obstacles whatsoever for Barcelona. in the UCL match, later in the know out round it will probably be the real decider when Barcelona faces a stronger European team.
The Barcelona team under Xavi's guidance is slowly improving to become better, but when compared to the top European teams I think they are still very far behind, so it's natural that many people don't favor Barcelona in the UCL this season.

the group phase will probably be easy for Barcelona. but looking at the next phase which will bring together strong European teams, it will not be easy for Barcelona. If they meet Madrid or Man City in the last 16, it will be a loss for Barcelona. Facing a very strong team will be pressure for Xavi's team. we know the quality of Xavi's team play. they are not weak but often when facing a stronger team like Man City, Xavi cannot do anything because his strategy can be very easily known and dealt with by opponents.
