UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[Weawant]

If the two teams that are now in first and second place in the standings (Inter Milan and Real Sociedad) collect 3 more points, then it will erase the hopes of Benfica. As for Salzburg, although they still have hope, but they still have to hope that one of Inter Milan or Real Sociedad loses in their last 3 matches and instead Salzburg must win all the remaining matches. With a scenario like that, it is something that is very difficult to realize, especially the two teams above will also always aim for good results in every match they do to ensure themselves that they will qualify from this group phase.

I don't think Benfica still have any chance because the two teams above are not going to loose any match again they may draw buy they will be very careful to not loosing because they are aware how much it could cost them, and benfica have no point currently.

Even if they win any match they still don't have any chance because it will require them to win four matches to be ahead of any of the too teams,  Salzburg have a conditional slim chance and that is if either of inter Milan or Real socidad loose two out of their next three matches which is almost not possible, they wouldn't let such happen because they definitely wouldn't want to loose they chance of qualifying after having seven points earlier.

They still have a long way to go to be in the knockout stages. I didn't imagine Mamchester United would be in such a difficult situation, because at the beginning I thought Bayern Munich and Manchester United were the top favorites in this group, and that all changed when they lost to Galatasaray in the first leg.
A win is a must for Manchester United in the 3 games they have to play, it will determine whether they will qualify or not to the next round. Galatasaray have the upper hand now, with the situation they are in now, of course Galatasaray have the advantage.

I guess the favorite will be Galatasaray!
They are now showing a truly beautiful game more than ever. No matter what, they go to the front. look at the game against Bayern. Didn't Galatasaray show skill! This is the same club that deserves the best. It has a perfect balance of defense and incredible attack! that's why they're doing so well! If I'm wrong, correct me!

[Bobrox]

I think Barcelona also deserves to be favorite along with Man City, Real Madrid and Bayern Munchen. It's not without reason that i say this, we can see that currently Xavi squad has wiped out three matches with a win and is at the top of the group standings with 9 points. If we look more closely, City has lost twice in the EPL, namely at the hands of Wolves and Arsenal, Munchen was beaten yesterday by a third division team in the DFB Pokal. Madrid has also been beaten by ATM and Barcelona also lost in the El Clasico match. So i think each favorite club has a negative record at their respective domestic levels.

Barcelona have good opportunity  this season their participants in UEFA Champion League, not in the difficult group stage teams and they have won 3 of 3 matches just need one match left for qualifying to next round. Current 3rd team standings Shakhtar Donetsk have three points and good opportunity for Barcelona in the first time after last two season failed reach to knock out round. Next match, Shakhtar Donetsk vs Barcelona and moment for Xavi Hernandez penetrate his failure last two season when Barcelona have eliminating to UEFA Europe League.

Talking about favorite teams for winning Champion League actually Manchester City is the first number and allow by Real Madrid then Bayern Munich, for Barcelona I don't really optimistic for winning Champion League tittle.

Manchester United controlled the ball, but unfortunately did not make a single shot on target at Fulham.
from the beginning of the game there was a goal scored, but alas, after looking at the VAR, the goal was canceled because it was offside.
But as before, the Red Devils did not keep track of their shots against Fulhep. it's all just sad. Let's hope that something will change in the second half.

This could affect the state of the game in the Champions League

There was one shot on target by a Man United player in the first half and one goal was disallowed by the referee because Maguire was deemed to have commit interference that results in offside before the goal. In the second half there were also several opportunities to score goals but again because they were too selfish they ultimately failed to score. On the other hand Fulham tried to put pressure on Man United in the 60th minute and they didn't stop attacking Man United's defense, but they were still lucky that Onana was able to make good saves on several occasions.

Initially I predicted that Man United would win the match with two goals, but in fact they had difficulty finding opportunities because there were many mistakes made by the front players and midfielders. Bruno Fernandez managed to take advantage of the chaos in front of the goal to score the winning goal. If Man United play like this in the Champions League then I would doubt they would qualify for the next round.

There are still three matches remaining in the group phase of the Champions League to see who will progress to the next round and Manchester United must really think about this seriously. Because they have to try to get through the group stage first so they can progress to the next round further, although I also don't think that Manchester United will go too far in the Champions League this season even though you yourself have said that the Manchester United coach has found a way to train the players to be better.

Manchester United certainly still has the possibility of qualifying for the last 16, but I'm not sure Ten Hag can take advantage of it even though I don't fully expect them to fail. If Manchester United can win 2 of the remaining 3 matches, then I believe they can qualify for the round of 16 compared to Galatasaray and Copenhagen. Anything is possible right now, but it all depends on how Ten Hag and his players set their goals.

I hope Ten Hag can beat Copenhagen and Galatasaray in the next 2 matches because I think these two matches will determine their chances of qualifying the most. Manchester United cannot beat Bayern Munich, although they can, the chances are no better than winning the matches against Copenhagen and Galatasaray.

Let's focus on Copenhagen next up, if they can get a good game and win the game against Copenhagen then they will do same against Galatasaray. They just had a narrow win against Fulham with the help of Bruno Fernandez.
Copenhagen really schooled Manchester United during the last game, I won't want that to repeat itself in the next few days.

As much as they keep on fighting and working together, there is always hope for them. Bruno Fernandez amdthe rest of Manchester United player's have just given peace of mind to Erik Ten Hag.
He can no sleep well and prepare for Copenhagen.

Talking about favorite teams for winning Champion League actually Manchester City is the first number and allow by Real Madrid then Bayern Munich, for Barcelona I don't really optimistic for winning Champion League tittle.

If we are just speculating, the strongest candidate for us should be a club that has very reliable star players and is proud of everyone, such as Manchester City has Haaland, then Real Madrid has Bellingham and Bayern Munich has Harry Kane.
Even though Barcelona also has superior players like Lewandowski, for me it is not enough to just rely on 1 player like other big clubs which have full support from other reliable players so I have the same speculation as you that it seems like Barca will find it a little difficult to win the Champions League title this season this is because after losing Messi Barca will not be as strong as before.

[JeffBrad12]

But considering Benfica's previous achievement of being able to reach the quarter finals, they should be able to achieve the same thing this season. However, it seems that it is not going smoothly enough and they are having a very difficult time with Real Sociedad and Inter as strong candidates for teams to qualify for the group phase. For Salzburg, I actually don't see this team as more than an ordinary team when they are in the Champions League competition, but at least they can still get points compared to Benfica. So even though both are teams in the farmers' league, it is clear that Salzburg is still slightly better than Benfica.

There is always something different every season and this time what is different is that Benfica did not perform as well as last season, of course there were problems in their team so that happened where out of three matches they did not produce a single point and I agree with you that Benfica is the team that will be the most difficult to win. can qualify from the group phase, or we can say that their chances are closed because in this group if Inter Milan and Real Sociedad each win just one win, it is enough to make them qualify from the group phase to play in the round of 16.
And in the fourth match against Real Sociedad, Benfica will face difficulty getting points because when they host Sociedad they lose, especially when playing at Sociedad's home ground.

No chance for benfica. This club will not also qualify for the europa league as it will stay at the bottom place. Benfica got three losses in a row which mean it has zero points while the first and second position of its group have 7 points. If these clubs will able to win 1 more matches and i think that it's impossible for benfica to go up. The club must admit that if it will not able to pass the group stage this season. Benfica must also accept the fact that if its club was not performing so well. Intermilan and sociedad are equal at this moment.
It's likely that if this will not happen. The winners from the first and second place can be determine. Intermilan and benfica will be passing to the knock out stage.

I guess the favorite will be Galatasaray!
They are now showing a truly beautiful game more than ever. No matter what, they go to the front. look at the game against Bayern. Didn't Galatasaray show skill! This is the same club that deserves the best. It has a perfect balance of defense and incredible attack! that's why they're doing so well! If I'm wrong, correct me!

We will see in the next match at the Allianz Arena, whether Galatasaray is able to beat Bayern Munich to strengthen its position in second place in the standings, because if Galatasaray loses and Manchester United is able to win at home to Copenhagen, it will create greater pressure on Galatasaray's side because Manchester United also still has a chance to qualify if they are able to win the three remaining matches in the Champions League group phase.

Personally, I would bet on Bayern Munich winning this match. Playing at home to Bayern Munich certainly makes it difficult for Galatasaray to win this match. Indeed, Galatasaray should not be underestimated because they also have star players, but I think the Allianz Arena is still haunted by every opponent. Moreover, Bayern Munich has the ambition to win all the matches in the group phase in order to increase their confidence as serious competitors in the UCL league this season. Apart from that, they also want to become group champions to avoid strong teams.

Yes, Man United's chances are actually still wide open if they can beat Copenhagen and move Galatasaray to second place. Even though it is not stable at the moment, in the next match they will win again with the capital they have beaten Fulham in the EPL. Slowly Man United will rise.

Although I have hope, we should not overlook the fact that Manchester United potentially has superior players compared to Galatasaray. Galatasray will be playing at home against manchester united and this is a golden chance owned by the club to win against it.
Manchester united has its last chance to pass the group stage. I think this is not going to be an easy game for galatasaray. Manchester United is determined to come out on top against Copenhagen and Galatasaray, and they are willing to employ any assets belonging to the club in order to achieve this goal.

I think that it will become hyped match for manchester united. MU must not lose any points during the last three matches of UCL. There's no reason to make another excuse.
We will see ten hag will try to put all of his focus into the UCL matches. Manchester united are still having at least 2 chances. The club must have won 2 from three matches.

Honestly, I will not conclude that Galatasaray will be able to beat Bayern Munich in the match even just for a chance, because obviously Bayern Munich are favored, they have very strong precision and sharpness, especially on the front lines. Although yes any result can happen in the match but I think Bayern Munich will not let Galatasaray have more chances in the match, and also on the other hand the strength of these two teams is very different. But on the other hand yes this match is a very valuable opportunity for Galatasaray to strengthen and secure their position in the second group, honestly this position is very confusing for the Galatasaray camp, it is not easy for them to win the match with Bayern Munich and even though they are able to hold a draw until the game ends, their position is still not safe from Man United's pursuit.

Ten Hag is trying to restore the confidence of his fans and that means they will definitely take advantage and maximize the match against Copenhagen at all costs, and if only they managed to get full points in that match and then Galatasaray drew with Bayern Munich then obviously Man United will be able to take second place, because the difference in points is now very thin.

I think, it's not about whether Galatasaray being able to beat Bayern Munich, but about whether Galatasaray willbe able to make difficult for Bayern Munich to win. Because ya, if for example Galatasaray managed to play well and made difficult for Bayern Munich to win, then of course Galatasaray would be the favorite to finish in second place or as runner up in group A. But yes, even though Galatasaray still lost to Bayern Munich, but because Galatasaray have a good performance then of course, at least Galatasaray will still have a chance to beat Manchester Unted and also Copenhagen. So yes, it's not wrong if you think Galatasaray is better than Manchester United at this moment, because basically Manchester United is currently experiencing a decline in performance.

Turkish clubs are producing superb outcomes in UCL games. I'm referring to Galatasaray, they are ranked second in UCL Group A and are making progress in games. Group A is a competitive group, but only two competitive teams would qualify with solid points; Bayern Munich has already carved out a clear route; the primary contest would be against Galatasaray and Manchester United. This season, I've been watching Galatasaray games; they're extremely serious, and Okan Buruk is having a fantastic time in the club; at the very least, they're #1 on the Turkish league table. Galatasaray are in terrific shape and are highly engaged in UCL games.

I would say that's not really that easy to make that calculation just yet. I am not saying they can't, but we still have 3 more games to go, just because we had 3 games doesn't change anything. They had one win and a draw, and United had one win too, the only difference is a draw, and I am sure that it could be handled on the next games.

So, it is not that easy to know if United or Galatasaray will go up, we can make calculations and guesses for the time being but we can't possibly know what's going to happen just yet, we need to be a bit more guessing at this stage, and guess work is not easy when we are talking about UCL, anything could happen there and usually does happen, people are usually shocked with results quite easily.

[Jody.Drummer]

Without realizing it, our conversation about group A is a very intense one, and for now it trumps our conversation about group F, which is considered a group of hell in the Champions League this season. I think it's because Manchester United are in this group which has an erratic performance from every match they play.
Apart from that, they are also a big club that has experienced great success in the Champions League, especially when they were still managed by Sir Alex Ferguson. It seems that we also miss their promising play.

[temple]

Yes I am with you here. I saw the game Galatasaray-Bayern Munich and if they repeat that game exactly like that a dozen of times, Galatasaray wins it 80% of the time I think. They had far superior chances and dominated the game really for 70 minutes, it was crazy to watch. But they defeated themselves because if you don't turn those opportunities into goals, it is almost inevitable to lose the game against Bayern Munich eventually. They could have had a lead of maybe 2-0 or on a lucky day 3-0. I think if they scored the first goal, Bayern Munich might have collapsed in that game.

Galatasaray surprised me all the time. What is it worth to watch their game while being live at the match? And especially when Galatasaray and their avid enemy Besiktas are confronting!
incredible sight.
Galatasaray entered the Champions League this time with a completely different approach and tactics. This is why their playing is so wonderful.

I think they have a very good team and also good players in almost all positions, not least in the offense. But this season is going well for them as you can also see in the league where they are playing an amazing season with Fenerbahce. The game that is around the corner between Galatasaray and Manchester United will be the game in the typical cauldron that the Galatasaray fans can turn the stadium into. That is not going to be very enjoyable for Manchester United!

[DanWalker]

Their failure to win in the 3 matches they have played is a sign that Benfica no longer has any hope of qualifying from the group phase and the team should be more realistic now that they cannot force and forget to focus on their domestic league just to catch up with the huge gap. not sure about this.
Maybe finishing in 3rd place and going to the Europa League is something they can achieve, otherwise I think there is no possibility for Benfica.

If the two teams that are now in first and second place in the standings (Inter Milan and Real Sociedad) collect 3 more points, then it will erase the hopes of Benfica. As for Salzburg, although they still have hope, but they still have to hope that one of Inter Milan or Real Sociedad loses in their last 3 matches and instead Salzburg must win all the remaining matches. With a scenario like that, it is something that is very difficult to realize, especially the two teams above will also always aim for good results in every match they do to ensure themselves that they will qualify from this group phase.

Of the four teams in the group, only Benfica has the lowest percentage of qualifying from the group, Inter Milan is almost guaranteed to qualify because their current performance is very good, while Real Sociedad also has a very big chance of qualifying, so Benfica has a very small chance. to qualify, even though previously they were favorites, the Benfica team's performance has not improved, making them even worse now.

I do not see any benefit for Benfica to actually concentrate on the Champions League competition anymore. I think it will be better for them if they actually forget about it and concentrate on the Liga Portugal. A lot of people might actually not agree with me but it is what it is. if they are still concentrating on the Champions League competition, there is a high chance that they will not qualify anyway. So it is definitely better for them to actually concentrate and play with full power in the Liga Portugal, instead of the Champions League. I actually believe that they should rest the better players in the Champions League competition matches.

I hope Ten Hag can beat Copenhagen and Galatasaray in the next 2 matches because I think these two matches will determine their chances of qualifying the most. Manchester United cannot beat Bayern Munich, although they can, the chances are no better than winning the matches against Copenhagen and Galatasaray.

Let's focus on Copenhagen next up, if they can get a good game and win the game against Copenhagen then they will do same against Galatasaray. They just had a narrow win against Fulham with the help of Bruno Fernandez.
Copenhagen really schooled Manchester United during the last game, I won't want that to repeat itself in the next few days.

As much as they keep on fighting and working together, there is always hope for them. Bruno Fernandez amdthe rest of Manchester United player's have just given peace of mind to Erik Ten Hag.
He can no sleep well and prepare for Copenhagen.

After the victory in the domestic league against Fulham, Manchester United immediately rushed to develop their next strategy against Copenhagen in the Champions League next week. In fact, Manchester United's wins so far have always been dominated by narrow wins and that is actually not good and could make them fall at any time. This time it's Copenhagen's turn to host the second round against Manchester United and of course Copenhagen doesn't want the Red Devils to be free at home and will avenge their previous defeat. This will be a good sign for Manchester United if they succeed in beating Copenhagen, but if the opposite happens then Manchester United's chances will stop in the group stage.

This game won't be like a vacation for Manchester United in Denmark. Copenhagen has made Bayern Munich work so hard for their win and almost scored the second goal themselves in the last few minutes that I think this game is much harder for Manchester United than their opponent's name might suggest. WIth a win Copenhagen could take the second position in group A as I think Bayern Munich will not lose the game against Galatasaray at home. I saw how Galatasaray did against them in Istanbul, but this is a different game in front of the Bayern Munich fans.

[lixer]

I think Barcelona also deserves to be favorite along with Man City, Real Madrid and Bayern Munchen. It's not without reason that i say this, we can see that currently Xavi squad has wiped out three matches with a win and is at the top of the group standings with 9 points. If we look more closely, City has lost twice in the EPL, namely at the hands of Wolves and Arsenal, Munchen was beaten yesterday by a third division team in the DFB Pokal. Madrid has also been beaten by ATM and Barcelona also lost in the El Clasico match. So i think each favorite club has a negative record at their respective domestic levels.

Barcelona have good opportunity  this season their participants in UEFA Champion League, not in the difficult group stage teams and they have won 3 of 3 matches just need one match left for qualifying to next round. Current 3rd team standings Shakhtar Donetsk have three points and good opportunity for Barcelona in the first time after last two season failed reach to knock out round. Next match, Shakhtar Donetsk vs Barcelona and moment for Xavi Hernandez penetrate his failure last two season when Barcelona have eliminating to UEFA Europe League.

Talking about favorite teams for winning Champion League actually Manchester City is the first number and allow by Real Madrid then Bayern Munich, for Barcelona I don't really optimistic for winning Champion League tittle.

Barcelona's performance is also debatable for the favorite for this season but as we have three other hot favorites things are not allowing this all because their performance is lacking few things which are also important and there is no doubt about Real Madrid, Manchester City and Bayern Munich are currently best in business but here few things are still going against the Barcelona as Xavi is still doing few experiments which are long run, and they could be much better in coming years because they could be best.

Now their next game against Shakhtar Donestk is also important even this is not going to have any problem about their promotion into knock out stage, but they need to do their best for having more confidence in this league their lost against Real Madrid in El Classic is also big below for them.
