UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[asriloni]

Real Sociedad are a really unpredictable team indeed. Finishing a group including Inter in itself as the leader isn't an easy task to perform at all. In the end there is technically a big strength gap between these teams on paper. But team effort can upset the balances quite much. I can say that Real Sociedad have played really well as a team until now.

I wonder how successful they will be against PSG as well. I don't find PSG better than Inter first of all. PSG are just not like in the Ligue 1 here.

They are much more inconsistent and they could have even been in the Europa League now. If they keep this up Real Sociedad can really punish them for that weakness.

Kindly let the comparisons between Paris Saint Germany and Inter Milan slide. They're obviously two different European clubs and they're not in the same group.

Despite the inconsistency they've faced, challenges included, they have a good coach Luis Enrique who have won seriously against Real Sociedad. Yes they have seen changes and upgrades but that doesn't mean he won't be able to defeat them.

They have also buckled up just like Inter Milan. They have seen the last three games they've played ending as a draw though, I'm not even seeing them winning against PSG. It'll not go very smooth for Parisians but most likely they're the best side to progress. Luis Enrique in his first season with PSG would want to do well.

But I think Inter Milan is one of the strongest contenders for the Champions League title. Sure, that doesn't make them invulnerable or anything, but I remember when Bayern Munich got defeated in the Champions League final, one year later they let the European football world feel all their anger, destroyed several top level opponents on their way to the final and then won it against their domestic rival Borussia Dortmund. Inter Milan is set to take some revenge for last season. But yes PSG can't be taken lightly.

Agreed, intermilan was also almost winning it last season but it was failed on the final step against manchester city. This is the main problem faced by PSG caused by the club has no ability to win UCL. Bayern was just winning it after they were losing at the final against chelsea. I meant it may be giving more motivation to the club like intermilan to come back stronger. People were doubting it but who knows? Intermilan is also the strongest in italy.

There's no doubt that if simeone's squad is likely repeating the same patter like the previous season. Yet there will be many obstacles to come soon but intermilan must be going to that fucking way to pass all of strongest teams in UCL.
The strongest teams are real madrid and bayern munich. I don't see other clubs than those two becomes the main problem for intermilan. It's caused by intermilan is very strong in attack and defese.

It's likely the club will make it happen soon. PSG is only playing well but it has not yet tested against the big team like bayern or real madrid.

With the way PSG performed in the group stage of the Uefa Champions League, I do not expect PSG to progress to the quarter-final of the Uefa Champions League this season, but PSG had an easy draw in the round of 16 against Real Sociedad, and they will win against Real Sociedad to reach the quarter-final of the Uefa Champions League.

Since PSG will play against Real Sociedad, I'm very sure that they will have a good chance to qualify for the next round. It is true that PSG didn't play consistently during this season, they sometimes got surprising defeats or draws. However, I believe PSG has much better quality squad over Real Sociedad. PSG still have some stars players in their squad, they have a special advantage in the match against Real Sociedad.

When the draw for Uefa Champions League round of 16 where made I knew that Paris Saint-German would win against Real Sociedad because PSG had more experience players who had played in the Uefa Champions League than Real Sociedad, and that will help PSG best Real Sociedad.

I'm keeping steady tater tots and relaxed at home, hoping to enter the new knowing confidently that Les Parisiens will qualify to the next UCL phase which is the round of 8. There's experience and there's action, better to engaged in both because that's the only way to build up good connection for the matches that ought to be played. The UEFA Champions League Round of 16 have be classified easy for Paris Saint-Germain but they can also messed things up for everyone, we know how vulnerable the club can be and I've solid idea of Real Sociedad becoming one of the underrated club and that's good points for Sociedad to implement and strive for good spot.

If we compare PSG and Real Sociedad, I think PSG still has a better chance than Real Sociedad of winning and qualifying for the quarter-finals. Even though it is true that Real Sociedad also won group D, leading over Inter and only goal difference is the difference, but that doesn't mean Real Sociedad is better than PSG.

Because after all, playing in the knockout phase of the Champions League clearly has different pressure too, what's more PSG is a team that has good dominance in Ligue 1 . Also, basically Enrique is used to facing or against La Liga teams and with the experience Enrique has like that. So ya, of course Enrique really understands the right strategy for playing against Real Sociedad later and thus, of course PSG has a very good chance of beating Real Sociedad.

Real Sociedad progress in the Champions League this season cannot be underestimated, they won group D which contained Inter Milan who were finalists in the UCL last season, PSG qualified for the knockout stages by finishing second in Group F. Luis Enrique who serves as PSG coach, is no stranger to Real Sociedad, he previously faced Real Sociedad when he was still coach of Barcelona. Sociedad also has several players who have played for the Spanish national team in the Luis Enrique era.

This is a difficult match for PSG because the improvement process carried out by Luis Enrique in the PSG squad is not completely perfect, they are still having difficulty bringing out their best abilities in the UCL even though they managed to top the Ligue 1 standings. Luis Enrique experience against teams from Spain is very important for PSG, especially now that they are in the knock-out round, a small mistake in the first leg can have a big impact in the second leg.

Sociedad also has several players who have played for the Spanish national team in the Luis Enrique era.

Real Sociedad continue their growth since past two seasons and it is not one-season surprise from Sociedad but they are actually growing and becoming stronger season by season. They have good players from their home grown and it is a very good player resource for them, it is more sustainable than buying star players from transfer market with lot of money and potentially cause more financial issues for their club.

This is a difficult match for PSG because the improvement process carried out by Luis Enrique in the PSG squad is not completely perfect, they are still having difficulty bringing out their best abilities in the UCL even though they managed to top the Ligue 1 standings. Luis Enrique experience against teams from Spain is very important for PSG, especially now that they are in the knock-out round, a small mistake in the first leg can have a big impact in the second leg.

PSG got a lucky draw because there was risk for PSG to meet bigger clubs in round of 16. Real Sociedad is a lucky opponent for PSG in theory but I agree with you that PSG must be careful. Real Sociedad can beat PSG and look back at PSG performance in group stage with Dortmund, AC Milan and a big shock defeat against Newcastle United, PSG have more reason to be careful in two matches with Real Sociedad.

For this round of 16, PSG really has very big chance of winning, beating Real Sociedad in the first and second legs, of course PSG can continue the UCL competition in the last 8 or quarter-finals.
But in this round of 8 it will be very difficult for PSG to win the match and advance to the semifinals because of course every team that makes it into the top 8 is the strongest of the 16 team who are currently still waiting for their first leg match to start.

I know that PSG has quite good strength and performance this season, but the UCL is competition that is really difficult to get into.
If PSG can qualify for the top 8 then the ones that need to be wary are teams like Real Madrid and of course Manchester City.
If these two team become PSG enemies in the last 8, their chances will definitely be gone because these two teams have performed very well so far in the UCL group phase.
Especially for Real Madrid, which is considered candidate to win the UCL title this season, PSG will never be able to surpass the quality of play of these two team.

That's why PSG must be able to play optimally in the first leg meeting because of course it will be difficult to correct mistakes. If that is done at their first meeting, Luis Enrique must really be able to provide the right strategy to fight this Spanish club.

I personally don't really see PSG as a difficult club in the UCL, sometimes they never survive until they reach the final, usually they only qualify for entertainment for me, PSG's squad still doesn't guarantee they can become the strongest team in the UCL and That's why proof must be carried out against Sociedad later. I want to make sure they succeed at UCL or are thwarted by Sociedad

I think so Paris Saint Germain more worthy of round 8 they have everything needed strength, experience and ambition especially Kylian Mbappe who has been aiming for this trophy for a long time and I think Mbappe wants to give this trophy before he leaves Paris Saint Germain next season. Mbappe is considered one of the brightest talents of the future but it would be meaningless if he didn't give this trophy. I'm not saying PSG will definitely win the Champions League but I know Mbappe's ambition to get it and it's worth keeping an eye on, round 8 was easy for PSG.

Apart from PSG, I also pay attention to Copenhagen this club managed to qualify from one of the strongest groups getting rid of Galatasaray and Manchester United this is an extraordinary achievement but in round 16 their first opponent was Manchester City, of course this is not easy but Manchester City cannot underestimate them Copenhagen has a good history in the group stage.

I'm having some doubts even as I want to believe Sociedad can pull some stunt on PSG, in group stage some teams might be unlucky to meet one of the strongest opponents. I don't know for Copenhagen and Galatasaray in the past but they gave in their best in the Champions League group B, one of the best I enjoyed I must say and PSG suffered a lot to come out good, perhaps things might change after this stage but at the same time, Sociedad is good in domestic league. Predicting this might be hard but double chance will certainly give a good money when they meet.

It's too small chance for Real Sociedad to win against PSG in the Champions League, but what we saw in the group stage where Copenhagen and Galatasaray who performed well highlights the competitive nature of the Champions League. Teams that may not be considered favorites can still give top sides a tough time, and the knock out stage can indeed be a stage for surprises and closely contested matches.

Real Sociedad's prowess in the domestic league is a positive factor that indicates their capability to compete at a high level. While predicting the outcome of specific matches in the Champions League can be challenging, considering a double chance bet when Sociedad faces PSG is a better option. This type of bet allows for more flexibility by covering both a win or a draw for Sociedad, potentially providing good returns. Anything can happen on the day of the match.

We can't say yet if Real Sociedad chances are smaller than PSG because the two have never met before, and if you look at the group stage, Real Sociedad seems to be playing like Real Sociedad has experience competing in the Champions League, even though it's the first time Real Sociedad has been able to take advantage of a golden opportunity to continue competing in the Champions League, Real Sociedad is even superior to Inter in terms of maintaining defense.

Coincidentally, in this first leg, PSG will play at home, so PSG's chances are bigger, but if Real Sociedad is able to hold a draw and in the second leg, Real Sociedad is able to beat PSG, then PSG will not qualify because if we looks at it in terms of strength through the domestic league, it doesn't feel like it fair because La Liga is tougher than the League 1 competition which is only dominated by PSG.
Never underestimate a team that doesn't seem to have real potential. In Group A, we can see Manchester United being beaten by a team that was initially underestimated.

[ancafe]

PSG's meeting with Sociedad cannot be taken lightly because Sociedad is also not an easy club to beat so that they can enter the round of 16, it is not easy to qualify. That's why PSG must be able to play optimally in the first leg meeting because of course it will be difficult to correct mistakes. If that is done at their first meeting, Luis Enrique must really be able to provide the right strategy to fight this Spanish club.

Sociedad have gone through the group phase well enough so that they managed to qualify for the round of 16 and I don't think they will waste this opportunity. PSG is not an easy opponent but Sociedad also cannot be underestimated because in the group phase they managed to hold the Champions League runners-up to a draw last season in the home and away matches, so they managed to emerge as group winners.

Luis Enrique has to prepare everything because facing teams that are not taken into account will be much more difficult because they don't have too much weight when playing. So there will be unexpected surprises such as several clubs in the group phase beating teams that are much stronger.

Sociedad was strong club and people are seeing it as underrated club for now. I think that sociedad has chance to win the game and this will become another interesting thing for me to watch it. In fact, even intermilan was not able to beat sociedad and this has proven that if it's a strong club this time. Sociedad is also hving very consistent performance in the la liga. It's only getting lose three times in la liga so far. The performance of sociedad is still very consistent right now and i think that PSG will far even stronger opponent compared with any club during the group stage.

PSG is going to get another difficult match against sociedad. I will not even underestimate sociedad caused by it's also able to get draw against intermilan two times in a row. Im not expecting PSG to dominate the game against sociedad.
I have been watching sociedad's game several times and it makes me feel so amazing to see that. Sociedad is always consistently attacking and defending at the same time. This is why runner of UCL last season is even struggling against it.

It can't even beat it. This is the main problem.

Luis Enrique built the PSG team with quite positive progress, even though at the start of the season the PSG team's performance was a little down, but now they are slowly recovering to be better, and indeed in the UCL match against the Sociedada team it will definitely be fierce because every team in the round The top 16 of the UCL are the best teams.

Real Sociedad, who will compete against PSG, will be a very difficult match for both teams because both of them are in very good condition. but actually there are differences between these two teams if we look in depth, like Real Sociedad has a fairly strong defense and can always withstand attacks even though they have to play against a strong team but in the attack line they are not too strong, it's just that Real Sociedad attack line players are very smart to looking for empty space to score.
and on the one hand PSG has a very strong attack line with Mbappe but a slightly weak defense can always concede.

I just want to make a little prediction that in the 1st leg PSG will win by a narrow score and Real Sociedad will win in the 2nd leg. the reason I say this is because away or home matches are very influential and these two teams will be very strong at their respective home grounds but to speculate who will qualify, it looks like PSG will qualify but there is no guarantee because as I said before, PSG defense is a little weak and often concedes goals.

That is not fully correct what you are saying about Real Sociedad. In fact, they are quite a bit weaker in La Liga this season than they were last season. In 22/23 they were at 38 points after 18 games. But their performance in the Champions League group was strong. Needless to say that the defense was the best we have seen in the Champions League so far. They are the team that conceded the least goals of them all. Dortmund and Arsenal both conceded 4 goals and Real Sociedad topped that with only 2 goals in all games. In La Liga it's looking differently, but it is still a decent defensive performance so far. Now the games really count and it is not the most spectacular match in the Champions League, but it is an interesting game because it's tough to say where PSG stands compared to Real Sociedad.

Due to his experience in Barcelona for a few years, Enrique may possess extensive knowledge regarding the main weakness of Real Sociedad. Im sure that enrique can accurately predict that the main weakness that can be used by PSG to take the advantage against sociedad. Im seeing sociead in the strongest form compared to the last season. It can be seen from the stats achieved by sociedad during the group stage. The result would have been practically perfect if Sociedad hadn't repeatedly drawn against Inter Milan. Ernqieu needs to be careful and he needs to make sure his team will not make a blunder when PSG is going to face sociedad soon. I cannot deny the fact that PSG is gradually making progress in all competitions, however, the true challenge in the UEFA Champions League is only just beginning.
There will be more surprises to come soon for PSG. The club needs to be ready for that caused by the competition is just getting tougher starting from this time. PSG has a good squad to face it.

[Weawant]

PSG got a lucky draw because there was risk for PSG to meet bigger clubs in round of 16. Real Sociedad is a lucky opponent for PSG in theory but I agree with you that PSG must be careful. Real Sociedad can beat PSG and look back at PSG performance in group stage with Dortmund, AC Milan and a big shock defeat against Newcastle United, PSG have more reason to be careful in two matches with Real Sociedad.

PSG may look lucky with the draw, been faced by Real socidad but then it's very important they understand that this is champions league and every team in the UCL especially those who have Ben able to make it up to the round of sixteen are definitely not weak teams but are little above average so PSG will just have to be cautious as this stage is a very delicate one.

Underestimating Real sociedad will be there biggest mistake PSG will ever do, because Real soscidad in their domestic league is doing well and showing some strength although the competition there in their domestic league isn't as much as what they face back at the UCL but because of the current form of PSG, it's very likely they will be able to put up a good challenge at PSG so I don't see PSG as too lucky but they will be if they sit up and don't give chances to Real socidad especially as PSG isn't in a very good form recently, there's enough time currently before the UCL fixture so they both have some time to prepare for the game.

[Strongkored]

I just want to make a little prediction that in the 1st leg PSG will win by a narrow score and Real Sociedad will win in the 2nd leg. the reason I say this is because away or home matches are very influential and these two teams will be very strong at their respective home grounds but to speculate who will qualify, it looks like PSG will qualify but there is no guarantee because as I said before, PSG defense is a little weak and often concedes goals.

The match will be held in about 1.5 months, so it's still quite a long time, so it is very likely that both teams will make serious preparations to maintain their participation in the Champions League by being able to enter the quarter-finals, but in the next 1.5 months both teams will have many matches in Domestically, they will be able to make changes to the line-up later because something unexpected happens, for example a player gets injured, so all preparations are a little disrupted.
My prediction is that PSG will try to win the first leg match with a goal difference of no less than two, and the second leg will still try to win but a draw will be enough to take them to the quarter-finals. Sociedad's productivity and defense are not as good as PSG's, so PSG's chances of winning are very wide open compared to Sociedad.

If we compare PSG with Real Sociedad team then PSG team is considered stronger. We are seeing a good performance from the Real Sociedad team in the Champions League. However, the performance of this team in La League is quite erratic. They have won 8 out of 18 matches and are sixth in the points table. However, Real Sociedad has a strong defense.
PSG's performance has improved since Luis Enrique became coach. This team is strong now. However, the team still relies heavily on Mbappe to score. Luis Enrique has to gradually reduce this dependency. Otherwise, PSG will face big problems if Mbappe leaves the team. At the same time, Enrique should add another experienced striker to the squad in the winter transfer. Then their performance in the Champions League will be stronger.

[fullhdpixel]

If we look at the squad depth between Arsenal and Porto, it is clear to us that Arteta squad deserves to be superior. It's true, there are still many considerations at the moment, because both of them have to continue several matches in their respective domestic competitions, we need to wait to assess the chances again when the meeting schedule approaches. The motivation of teams that qualify for the knockout rounds is much greater than before, no club wants to be eliminated early, many surprises can happen and we have seen this very often.

In my opinion, Arsenal can win the match and advance to the quarter-finals, in the sense of not underestimating the bargaining value that Porto has. The competitive level of the Premier League has made Arsenal a stronger team, currently they are leading the standings. It is true that domestic competitions cannot be used as a complete reference because the Champions League is very different, but at least this can be taken into consideration.

At the current level of performance and quality there is no doubt about this Arteta's Arsenal is much stronger and better team then Porto which is also struggling in Liga Portugal and having two defeats into their last few games but still things are never been easy for any team in knock out rounds with all are on their best and want to have another jump into next round which make things challenging, and we can expect same performance from the Porto against Arsenal as well.

Here we have clear chance for the Arsenal to qualify but as we have in last season when Sporting give them shocking defeat, and they have face exit in UEFA Europa League things like these always on board for the teams and underestimating opponent is never been good because we can't stop them from making things harder and challenging and both have to give their best for their next chance into event.

[emrecemsan]

It looks like nearly all of the teams whose names have been called with the European Super League have rejected to play under this format. There are rumours about only Barcelona and Real Madrid to be okay with that but surely this format won't work with only these 2 teams.    As a result I don't expect UEFA to face any competition in the near future.

By the way UEFA president Ceferin said that football was not for sale. I understand him about why he used this sentence considering these speculations. However this statement is normally not much sincere to tell the truth. Things can really change a lot when organizers are offered a lot of money.
