UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

But in the final match for this group stage, Copenhagen or Manchester United could make a brilliant enough performance to win, although I also believe that Galatasaray will try to be better than before in the final match in this group stage. Apart from that, I'm also quite curious about who will qualify for the European League play-off round apart from those who will qualify for the last 16 of the Champions League this time because the points for these three teams are quite close and any mistake could make them worse off.

Manchester United, Galatasaray and Copenhagen will fight to win in the final match of the group stage. One of the three teams will qualify for the round of 16 and one of them will go to the Europa League. Manchester United has a good chance of winning the match against Bayern Munich, but whether they qualify or not really depends on the Galatasaray and Copenhagen matches.

The scenario that Manchester United needs to qualify for the round of 16 is to win the match against Bayern Munich and expect Copenhagen and Galatasaray to draw, for me that scenario is super difficult.

It is essential that MU defeats Bayern Munich, which is a difficult challenge in and of itself. When it matters most, United has a track record of pulling off the unexpected. It may seem unlikely that Galatasaray and Copenhagen would draw, but stranger things have happened in the history of football. It's not only about United winning, in my opinion; it's also about hanging onto the hope that the other match's outcome will work out. Sure, we're in a difficult situation, but what draws us all in is the sport's unpredictable nature. Hoping United can fulfill their end of the bargain, and hope for a little good fortune.

Thomas Muller said it nicely prior to the first leg, " You don't underestimate Manchester United even when they're having a bad time and season " Thomas Tuchel is nobody new Erik Ten Hag would definitely try to overcome this game. During his last fews he's done well as a manager and has analyzed well with sentiment and shit!

They would host Bournemouth at home and I hope Bruno Fernandez avoids being carded otherwise, he'll not be available for Manchester United against Liverpool which would a huge blow on the squads face. There nothing more to say, I can go around hoping and praying for another teams downfall. If Manchester United can qualify, Gratitude to God!!!

Bayern Munich is a strong opponent. It is much more difficult to win against such a team. However, it is not impossible. If Bayern Munich rest their key players, and if they are not with the squad, Manchester United have a chance to win.

Yes, even though Munich will play their second tier players and not play many of their key players because they are certain to qualify for the group, even if Manchester United wins against Munich it won't help them qualify if in the end Galatasaray wins against Copenhagen of course that will qualify Galatasaray but no Manchester United because the difference in points does not allow them to qualify.

I think Manchester United supporters should not have high hopes for a miracle, so they should focus on the game even though they failed in the UCL this season, make sure they learn a lot from their mistakes this season and can improve it so that next season they can perform better in the UCL. In my opinion, there is a lot that needs to be overhauled in the Manchester United squad.

Judging from the performance of Copenhagen at home this season's Uefa Champions League, I think Copenhagen will be the one to advance to the next round of the Uefa Champions League. Copenhagen came from behind to beat Manchester United 4-3 at home. Galatasaray will find it difficult to win Copenhagen at home.

In the Champions League, anything unexpected can happen, especially since it is the last match before qualifying for the round of 16 where generally all teams will try to get their best results in that match. Everyone may assume that Copenhagen is stronger at home, but that doesn't mean the opposing team will be weak enough when competing at Copenhagen's home ground. So this may just be an assumption because Galatasaray can also win that match with the abilities they currently have.

[Leviathan.007]

I would be more confident if Galatasaray would qualify for the next round along with Bayern Munich even though Copenhagen also has a chance to qualify, but I only compare in terms of performance. Galatasaray is superior, showing extraordinary performances in every match and looks ready to qualify for the next round.
I don't doubt that Copenhagen can qualify. This club has good performance, but in terms of readiness, as I said before, Copenhagen doesn't seem ready to continue to the next round.
For Manchester United, I won't say much about this club, it will definitely be difficult for Manchester United to beat Bayern Munich, which has more quality players and an experienced coach.

The match will happen in Copenhagen's home, I expect it's either draw or Copenhagen to win since Copenhagen was able to win against Galatasaray in Copenhagen's home and draw against Bayern Munich in Copenhagen's home.

I don't think the match will end in draw because is quite obvious that Copenhagen is far better than Galatasaray because there last meeting was not actually easy on Galatasaray even while they were playing from there home they find it very difficult to settle on that match, that was why Copenhagen was able to score them the 2 goals first, so it was after the two goals Copenhagen started having the challenges that resulted Galatasaray to equalize. So perhaps the only way Copenhagen will draw the match is if they are no longer in there good form if not with the look of things Copenhagen will surely win them.

So far both teams in this group, Copenhagen and Galatasaray had perfect performances but more than their performance they had, these teams were lucky to play in the same group as Manchester United while Manchester United is not in the good form and that's why they are in a situation in which they can have a good chance to be the second team of this group and take themself to the next stage and I think based on the last games we saw from both teams Galatasaray had better performance for that.

Seeing Newcastle's less consistent results in the domestic league makes me doubt whether they can beat Milan on matchday 6 or not. The reason is that so far the team coached by Eddie Howie has not shown a good performance in every match and considering that Newcastle has the same 5 points as Milan, this will be a very fierce match between the two teams. On the other hand, so far Milan is still quite good in the domestic league and they are starting to maintain a more stable performance than before. Is it possible that in the deciding match there will be a surprising result that shouldn't have happened? Can't wait to find out the results.

After I saw Newcastle lose to Everton in the EPL, I started to doubt this club's performance in the next match against Milan. But maybe Newcastle will play well again when they play at home. And in the match against Milan, it looks like Newcastle will still be the favorite as hosts. So this makes me a little confused. Milan is indeed slightly improving at the moment in the domestic league. But it still doesn't necessarily mean it will be good when playing in the UCL. So the final match in the group stage is very difficult for us to predict. I was very curious and wanted to see it immediately. But I would probably still back Newcastle and bet on them.

Judging from the performance of Copenhagen at home this season's Uefa Champions League, I think Copenhagen will be the one to advance to the next round of the Uefa Champions League. Copenhagen came from behind to beat Manchester United 4-3 at home. Galatasaray will find it difficult to win Copenhagen at home.

Everyone may assume that Copenhagen is stronger at home, but that doesn't mean the opposing team will be weak enough when competing at Copenhagen's home ground. So this may just be an assumption because Galatasaray can also win that match with the abilities they currently have.

On paper, Copenhagen was regarded as the weakest team in the group A of this season's UEFA Champions League competition but their performance in the competition has left them in the second position of the group table and are currently one home win away from reaching the knockout stages of the competition ahead of big European clubs like Manchester United abd Galatasaray. Like you rightly said, considering their performance in the competition since the start of the season, I think they stand a very good chance of beating their visitors Galatasaray in the last game of the group stage.

That being said, bookmakers are backing Turkish champions Galatasaray to beat Copenhagen away from home in that game and that I also think goes a long way to explain how good of a side Galatasaray can be. Galatasaray couldn't win the Danish club when they faced each other in the reverse fixture in Turkey but with the quality of attacking players in the Galatasaray squad, they're very capable of beating Copenhagen in the last game of the group stage. It'll be a very difficult game for both sides and hopefully one of them will progress to the round of 16 of the competition

The reason is that so far the team coached by Eddie Howie has not shown a good performance in every match and considering that Newcastle has the same 5 points as Milan, this will be a very fierce match between the two teams.

Is it possible that in the deciding match there will be a surprising result that shouldn't have happened? Can't wait to find out the results.

Newcastle sometimes performs well when there is a doubt to them and vice versa when they are believed to be able to win but instead lose badly like yesterday's match in the English Premier League against Everton, so anything is still possible even though it is quite doubtful that Newcastle will beat AC Milan to qualify from the group phase if PSG loses to Dortmund, or if PSG wins then Newcastle can play in the European league playoff, and the bookie predicts that Newcastle as the home team will be able to beat AC Milan considering that this Serie A team is in good condition locally but in the champions league they are not showing anything good, that AC Milan has never won an away UCL match this season so it is quite doubtful they will show otherwise.

Unpredictable with Newcastle United performance, success got one points against PSG on Champion League and continue their impressive perfformance when defeating manchester United in domestic league but last match loss over 3-0 from Everton. Actually, unbelievable with Newcastle United have loss with relegation team as Everton have inconsistency performance.

But difference level and motivate between Premier League and UEFA Champion League, I don't think with bad trend in domestic league will get impact for Newcastle Umited perormance in Champion League against AC Milan last match, lst important match for Newcastle United get chance qualify to next round and they won't loss from AC Milsn.

Already Newcastle drop in form was as a result of series of injured players that were absent in their matches and they currently recorded another injury from their Captain Jamaal Lascelles who got injured in their match against Everton on Thursday night but Eddie Howie is hopeful that the captain may return back to his feet in their match against Tottenham Hotspur as he only sustained a minor injury. I think the coach will also be looking forward for the return back player like Sean Longstaff from an ankle injury then the rest of the injured players may take longer time before getting back to their feet.

It's just very unfortunate that Eddie Howie side have recorded huge number of injury this season so far and it has led to a decrease in their current performance. With the fact that Newcastle has recorded more victories in the most of their recent meetings with Tottenham Hotspur and for the fact that Tottenham is still out of form can still be possible for Newcastle to win Tottenham in that match.

With the current injury crisis rocking Newcastle united now I don't really think they can win AC Milan, and moreover AC Milan have more champions league tactics than Newcastle so however AC Milan may likely be the possible favourite to win Newcastle in the champions league final group stage match.

[KTChampions]

It cannot be said that Manchester United's performance in the Premier League is very bad. The team has won 9 out of 15 matches and is now sixth in the points table.
But the main problem is that I have not seen Manchester United team play well against any renowned team this season. Although they won 9 matches in the Premier League, they lost the remaining 6 matches. Can't draw any matches. Newcastle, Manchester City, Brighton, Tottenham and Arsenal have all been badly beaten by Manchester United.

Bayern Munich is a strong opponent. It is much more difficult to win against such a team. However, it is not impossible. If Bayern Munich rest their key players, and if they are not with the squad, Manchester United have a chance to win.

I'm sure you meant that United were beaten by them.
As for draws, such uncompromisingness probably plays into United's hands - after all, a draw with Bayern will be tantamount to defeat for them. So if this was poker and there was everything on the line with no chance of a draw then United would have to do it. But I’m still sure that Bayern will not lose this game.

[hahay]

Judging from the performance of Copenhagen at home this season's Uefa Champions League, I think Copenhagen will be the one to advance to the next round of the Uefa Champions League. Copenhagen came from behind to beat Manchester United 4-3 at home. Galatasaray will find it difficult to win Copenhagen at home.

In the Champions League, anything unexpected can happen, especially since it is the last match before qualifying for the round of 16 where generally all teams will try to get their best results in that match. Everyone may assume that Copenhagen is stronger at home, but that doesn't mean the opposing team will be weak enough when competing at Copenhagen's home ground. So this may just be an assumption because Galatasaray can also win that match with the abilities they currently have.

It doesn't matter who wins this match, whether it's Copenhagen or Galatasaray, because what seems to be the focus at the moment is about Manchester United fans which expecting Copenhagen v Galatasaray to draw. So, if for example you think Galatasaray will win or Copenhagen will win, then I think whoever wins this match still deserves to go to the last 16. So, if they don't end the match with a draw, then of course Manchester United no longer chance to be the runner up, because to end it in third place also I think is still difficult for Manchester United.

They still have inconsistencies that will make it difficult for us to predict how they will play in the next match.
In the Champions League, the last match will determine whether they will be able to be in the Europa League at least or not. Actually, a draw is also enough to bring them to the Europa League play offs, but it is unfortunate if they only target that result, because their chances of being in the last 16 are still there, provided they have to win and Paris Saint Germain must lose against Borussia Dortmund.

[Volgastallion]

Yeah i think the Manchester United fans are gonna see most the game in Copenaghe between Galatasaray and Copenaghe than the match between them and Bayern Munich.  

They have a tiny expectation to go into round of 16, but we have one more chance, what if they ended in the last spot of the table? total shame.

Unpredictable with Newcastle United performance, success got one points against PSG on Champion League and continue their impressive perfformance when defeating manchester United in domestic league but last match loss over 3-0 from Everton. Actually, unbelievable with Newcastle United have loss with relegation team as Everton have inconsistency performance.

But difference level and motivate between Premier League and UEFA Champion League, I don't think with bad trend in domestic league will get impact for Newcastle Umited perormance in Champion League against AC Milan last match, lst important match for Newcastle United get chance qualify to next round and they won't loss from AC Milsn.

Newcastle United's recent performances indeed showcase their unpredictable nature. It makes us challenging to gauge their form consistently. Your point about the difference in level and motivation between the Premier League and the UEFA Champions League is valid. Teams often approach continental competitions with heightened determination, knowing the significance of the matches and the opportunity to advance to the next round.

The shift in focus and intensity can contribute to varying performances in different competitions. Considering the importance of the upcoming match against AC Milan for their chance of qualifying to the next round, it's plausible to expect a motivated and determined effort from them. The unpredictability in their domestic league form might not necessarily carry over to the Champions League, where the stakes and motivation are higher. The unique dynamics of European competitions often bring out the best in teams, and Newcastle might just rise to the occasion.

So the final match in the group stage is very difficult for us to predict. I was very curious and wanted to see it immediately. But I would probably still back Newcastle and bet on them.

Indeed, this match is quite difficult to predict because in terms of quality and strength the Newcastle and AC Milan teams are not much different, but I look at the mentality of the team on the European stage, I think AC Milan is much better so I think their chances are much greater to be able to win. win the match.

AC Milan's performance is still inconsistent even though they are a little better now if you look at their Serie A matches, while Newcastle is the opposite, they experienced a slight decline in team quality after several of their main players suffered injuries and this was quite detrimental for the team.
In the final match, what will be determined is not just the quality needed but also the team mentality and AC Milan has that.

Newcastle will get full support at St James Park later, and this will be a big advantage for them. I admit that Milan has had a very good history in the UCL in the past, and Newcastle has been absent from the UCL for a long time. However, that cannot be used as a full reference anymore, and I have a tendency that Milan will drop points. I certainly haven't forgotten that Milan and Newcastle were able to beat PSG, which is said to have a more capable squad, but Milan victory was more down to luck.

Newcastle competitive level is better than Milan, even though last week they lost badly to Everton. However, I think that even though Eddie Howe squad is currently experiencing a storm of injuries, Milan needs more luck to secure a ticket to the European League Playoffs. But what hurts here is, PSG will drop points and Newcastle will accompany Dortmund to the round of 16, that's a big surprise.

Of course most of the fans will prefer to watch the match between Copenhagen and Galatasaray because is the match that will determines the faith of Manchester United because if any club between Galatasaray and Copenhagen wins that means even if Manchester United manages to win Bayern Munich they will not still qualify, so however the only challenge they would have now is on Copenhagen and Galatasaray match because is actually obvious that there would not be any draw against each other and perhaps with the current statistics now Copenhagen is more good in performance than Galatasaray so is quite obvious that Copenhagen will surely beat Galatasaray on there home.

[QueenVera]

Mathematically, it's still very much possible for Manchester United to progress to the next round of the UEFA Champions League competition and that's if they can beat Bayern Munich at home while Copenhagen play our a draw against Galatasaray but in my own opinion, they'll need a miracle to reach the round of 16 in the competition because the last two matches in the group is very unlikely to produce such results.  Bayern Munich has been very impressive since the start of the season and are one of the few clubs that are yet to lose a game in the competition so for Manchester United to beat them in that game at Old Trafford next week, they'll have to play to their full strength while hoping for Bayern Munich boss Thomas Tuchel not to field his strongest squad since they've already won the group.

Copenhagen home game against Galatasaray is also unlikely to produce a draw because the two teams knows what's at stake going into the game. Copenhagen will be playing in front of their home fans and that I think will give them extra motivation to win the game and progress to round of 16 while Turkish champions Galatasaray also will be seeking to win the game to reach the knockout stages. Any of the three teams between Manchester United, Copenhagen and Galatasaray can still qualify but Manchester United in my opinion are in a more difficult situation to make to the knockout stages of the competition.

The last UCL face off for the group stages will be played in the coming week and the team's qualifications in group A is shaky because virtually all have not been able to stay consistent in their plays. They've got to depend on the final faceoffs and the result of both group games too. It's totally different for Munich because they're the only team in the group that's very much certain to advance. For United, Galatasaray and Copenhagen, they both have to put in extra efforts at thesame time pray for the outcome of each other's games to be favourable.

 Galatasaray would face Copenhagen and both teams are in same range of performance although with Galatasaray being a very little margin ahead. For United, it'll be very much tough for them as they'd be battling with Munich who's a far stronger side to them than the other clubs. It's so sad that it's either they advance to the round of 16 or they relegate to the UEL or they end up being disqualified. The final game would be taken more than serious but the better side would be saved.

Their focus will be on that match caused by the result from that match is going to determine the fate of manchester united in UCL. The match between galatasaray vs copenhagen will be very interesting match. It's like the match for dead or alive for those clubs and manchester united as well.
The fate of three clubs will be determined from the result of that match. Manchester united potentially to lose UCL and europa league. The only chance for MU if the club will able to win against bayern.

I thought the Copenhagen team was weak. However, the way the team has performed in this  year's Champions League, it is absolutely  commendable. They have lost one and drawn one against Bayern Munich. Despite the defeat in  the away match  against Manchester United, Copenhagen won the home match. Copenhagen will play at home against Galatasaray. And this team is strong at home. On the other hand, the performance of  Galatasaray team is also very good this season. The team is playing well in the Super Lig. At the same time  their performance in the  Champions League is also good. They managed to  score 10  goals in 5 matches. I would say that if Galatasaray's defense  can play well against Copenhagen, then they have a chance to win this match. If  the defense is weak, Galatasaray cannot win against Copenhagen.

[kawetsriyanto]

I don't think Manchester United needs an experienced striker but they need a striker who can make a lot of difference. The problem that I often see with Manchester United's center forwards is that they don't get enough support from their teammates, which has been experienced by Martial and Rasmus Højlund this season.

Experienced strikers mean the strikers who can make a difference in the match and have great ability in scoring goals. Man United have talented strikers, they are young and have potential to develop. But those strikers still have no ability in scoring goals consistently. Man United current strikers aren't productive strikers, they are too inconsistent as the top strikers of big team like Man United.

Ten Hag may need to try a strategy without a center forward and maximize wingers and attacking midfielders. Rasmus Højlund is a good striker and has a pleasing finish, but he will never shine like Haaland if he doesn't have full support.

Without CF? I think it is not a wise idea, Man United needs a CF to sharpen their attacking. CF is a player who has a special ability in scoring goals. If Ten Hag relies on the wingers and AMF for scoring goals, they won't be easy to do it. Wingers and AMF can be good players and can score goals. However, I rarely found wingers or AMF who can be a real machine goal for the team. Bellingham is a rare AMF who can score many goals.
