UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[LGD2Business]

I don't understand how the betting odds for PSV Eindhoven to win are higher. Borussia Dortmund is the favorite of this round, but it seems that they are not trusted enough on the road by betting companies. I think there can be 3 goals in this match. The odds of over 2.5 goals is also quite good. Dortmund have drawn a lot in the league, but they don't lose. They won't lose this match either. In the last matches, Füllkrug always scored goals, Malen can also score goals. Dortmund has a good offensive line. I think Dortmund is the better team in this matchup.

Yes, Napoli and Barca is the match I'm also looking forward to. Barca is gradually regaining form. They are unbeaten in the last 4 games. Barca players will undoubtedly be very confident in their trip to Napoli. Napoli was at a considerable disadvantage in this match. Their number 1 striker, Victor Osimhen, was injured. Barca will likely win by a margin in this match.

It’s a match everyone is looking for to because it will be a very interesting game, the both teams have been struggling of poor performance recently but Barcelona seen to have improved a bit in their recent games, it is not actually a great performance to be proud of but they manage to a get a win. You are right, they have now gone 4 games unbeaten but it doesn’t mean they back in top form because have been watching their games recently and i have not been satisfied with their wins and performance, it is not really a convincing performance but so far they seem to be better than Napoli.

Napoli has an advantage in my opinion because they are playing at home and Osimhen should be available for the game against Barcelona on Wednesday, he missed the match against Genoa due to a precautionary measure taken because he is not fully fit and it would be risky to play him. Just read a new reporting that he would be available to play against Barcelona for the knockout round of the Champions League. See link below

Osimhen’s injury will not put them at a significant disadvantage in this match. This is the Champions League, and it cannot be compared to their league games, where they have not performed well since Osimehn left to represent his country in AFCON. I believe that the intensity used in Champions League games differs from that used in domestic leagues. Barcelona has been on a winning streak, but that alone will not guarantee a quick victory over Napoli when they meet at Napoli’s home this week.

If Osimhen should be absent it will be a huge blow for Napoli because he is one of their most valuable players and his contribution will be very significant. Champions League is different but the way Napoli would approach the game and be more serious is the same way Barcelona would also be so both teams need all the help they can get and Osimhen missing out might be costly.

Champions league game is today and tomorrow,Barca will be fighting it hard with Napoli for a spot in the quater final,and as far as I'm concerned,the both teams have equall chances,Barca are very used to not keeping clean sheet,therefore Napoli will score,but at these time,they are sharp in their attack line,so they can also score Napoli, if I'm to give my prediction,I will go for a draw.The next match tomorrow will be FC Porto vs Arsenal.Arteta's men will be playing away from home,which might be a little advantage for Porto,but the Gunners have been so good while playing away this season.In the last five games in the premier league,they have scored 21 goals which should pose a threat on Porto's defence,because I'm quite sure the gunners must get atleast three goals in that game.Lets wait to see how Porto will battle in trying to defend the sharp attack of the Gunners.

[Jatiluhung]

We're quick enough to know the fast rising outstanding form of Arsenal, they're preparing themselves in all top tournaments they found themselves, not giving up but bringing on the exact excellent scores. Arsenal are only better in these previous EPL matches because they're outstanding and involved with good amount of goals. This is exactly what the fans and the headcoach was planning for the team. At this point, Mikel Arteta is doing a good job to enabled himself becomes the formidable pillar behind the progress of the Gunners.

Arsenal's current condition is in their peak condition or they are at their best performance. The extraordinary thing is that Arsenal have not conceded in the last two matches in the EPL. And Arsenal are actually starting to show that they have improved their attack and defense. Well, Arsenal have even managed to collect 11 goals in just 2 matches in the EPL. And I think the confidence level of the Arsenal players is also at its highest at the moment. And facing Porto in the round of 16 will not be a difficult problem for Arsenal. Arsenal will definitely be favorites for the majority of us and I hope we all benefit from betting on that match.

PSV play well at home, they hardly lost at home, I think the bookmakers were based on these statistics. Most likely, Dortmund will go to Eindhoven for a draw and will play from defense, so I don’t know about the total, anything can happen, but I would suggest that there may not be many goals in this match. PSV will force things, because they will not be satisfied with any other result at home than a win, and for Dortmund, a draw will be a completely acceptable result for the first away match.

Everyone also thinks the same thing about Arsenal who are getting better and better lately in the domestic league, collecting a rain of goals very much in the last 5 matches in the domestic league, as well as Porto which I calculate the growth is quite stagnant, getting 1 draw and one defeat in the domestic league by the Arauca team, but overall Porto is quite good in the Portuguese league so far in 3rd place in the standings.

However, I can't close my eyes that Arsenal will be the favorite in this round of 16, Arteta is very confident to beat Porto, Arsenal must embarrass the host well in this round of 16 leg 1 of the champions league.

The main reason why everyone considers Arsenal as favorites is because Arsenal players have been able to score a lot of goals in the last few matches. The team's players scored 14 goals in the last three matches. Another important thing is that they won 3-1 against Liverpool who are at the top of the Premier League table. For these reasons, Arsenal team is considered as favorite against Porto.

Current performance of Porto team is not good. Poor performances from Porto's attacking players. Strikers are having a lot of trouble scoring goals. But the defense of this team is very strong. And I think Porto will play a defensive strategy against Arsenal. And playing defensively will make it much more difficult for Arsenal's players to score. Personally, I don't think Arsenal will be able to win this match by a big margin.

Dortmund are more experienced than PSV at this stage of the competition. Dortmund were outstanding in the group stages, so I don't see them going down in this game. They have played in many knockout stages of the champions league and know how to win their games. I banking on Dortmund to win PSV in today's game. PSV have done well by getting to this stage, but every story comes to an end. I think it is the end of the road for PSV when it comes to the champions league this season.

[Distraction]

The odds for the matches today are like above.

I must admit one thing above all else. Aren't Atletico Madrid's odds too high?    Truthfully my expectation was like these teams having much closer odds. Inter were still going to be the favourite team of course. But this looks a bit like bookies underestimate Atletico Madrid. Because this team is always dangerous under Simeone's control.

I'm seeing Dortmund as the favourite team also unlike bookies. Not by a big gap maybe but I think Dortmund could have been favoured. I guess the odds are affected by PSV's having a wonderful season in their domestic league on one hand. 

My picks here would be Inter @1.73 and Dortmund @3.25. Maybe it is risky but I think it is worth giving a shot.

Dortmund had a more difficult group, they performed well, there was some luck in some matches, but overall they performed well in the group stage. For me these are too different teams, it’s difficult for me to compare them and it’s difficult to determine who will be better today. I'm more interested in the Inter - Atletico match, and I'm a little surprised that the odds on Inter are 1.8.

Atletico are very good now, I don’t think they will lose today, I even had thoughts that Atletico could win today.

Dortmund's performances have been erratic, but this team is strong. After the group they played very well. Despite strong teams like Milan, PSG and Newcastle in Group A, Dortmund finished the group stage at the top of the table. Although the team's performances have been somewhat erratic, we have seen consistent performances from Dortmund in the last few matches in the Bundesliga. Players are able to play better now. So I consider Dortmund team as favorite against PSV today.

The most competitive match of the day is going to be the Atletico Madrid vs Inter Milan match. Both teams are very strong. So it is very difficult to predict the outcome of this match.

[vennali]

Dortmund or draw @1.73x screams value to me. Dortmund do have some defensive troubles but their offence should make up for it. Fullkrug has been in decent form along with their attacking mids Sancho, Reus and Brandt. Good defensive midfield too but the defence is slightly questionable, yet they should be able to hold their own and not leak goals.

[Richbased]

Finally, the next match in the round of 16 of the Champions League will continue starting today, I am still curious to see the performance of each team in the match. Especially for the Inter vs Atletico match and of course we expect unusual surprises in the match. I want to see Atletico beat Inter, even though it's quite difficult but I'm pretty sure they can do it if there are no distractions. Moreover, if Atletico knows how to penetrate Inter's strong defense, it will be easier for them to win in the first leg. The chance is small but at least it can still be enough motivation to make things difficult for Inter at home.

On the other hand, Inter, who are still unbeaten from the group stage to their good performance in the domestic league, there is no doubt that they are one of the most terrible teams this season. But what is clear is that I hope Inter can find out the right strategy to repel every highly structured Atletico attack. A tactical battle will be presented between Filipo Simone and Diego Simione, it will be very difficult to predict the match and I think whoever can score the goal first will be the one who will win, even with a narrow score.

Sure the toughest fixture of the champions league matches today is certainly the match between Inter Milan and Atletico Madrid because these two teams have been very active in their respective leagues though looking at Inter Milan's form in the serie A one can actually give them the odds in today's game but this is champions league where teams from various leagues are being merged together and considering the fact that Atletico Madrid have a very solid defense line would even make it very difficult for Inter Milan to penetrate hence I see this match as unpredictable. The both coaches are very tactical and knows the right formation to follow each team they meet but regarding the fact that they are from two separate leagues would make their formation look complex for today's match.

Arsenal's current condition is in their peak condition or they are at their best performance. The extraordinary thing is that Arsenal have not conceded in the last two matches in the EPL. And Arsenal are actually starting to show that they have improved their attack and defense. Well, Arsenal have even managed to collect 11 goals in just 2 matches in the EPL. And I think the confidence level of the Arsenal players is also at its highest at the moment. And facing Porto in the round of 16 will not be a difficult problem for Arsenal. Arsenal will definitely be favorites for the majority of us and I hope we all benefit from betting on that match.

Previously, Arsenal had slipped in several of their matches, especially after the draw against Liverpool in Week 18. after that, the Gunners experienced consecutive defeats. two in the Premier League, one match again against Liverpool in the FA Cup. after Arsenal's poor results, Mikel Arteta's squad returned with an impressive performance. in their last 5 matches, Arsenal scored 21 goals against opposing teams and only conceded 2 times in 5 matches. It's really quite an impressive performance, even though it was initially doubtful that Arsenal would be able to compete fiercely again in their domestic league competition. now, the Gunners will travel to Porto's home ground at the Estadio do Dragao in the Champions League last 16 match. in this match, the Gunners are favored by the bookies with odds @1.68.

Meanwhile for the home team, their progress was not so smooth in the Geup H phase. they lost 2 times, and finished in second place. in fact, Porto's performance in the Domestic League is not that bad. they are in 3rd place in the standings, even though they have a difference of 7 points from those ranked above them. well, the difference is that even though Porto is the home team, the bookies favor Arsenal in this meeting. based on bookie odds, Porto with odds @5.20. well, it seems there is a gap that we can see based on the odds and team performance. this match will be held tomorrow, so we look forward and wait.

[asriloni]

Currently, Barcelona performed not really bad managed to achieve three wins from the last four matches in La Liga, I don't think its not good condition from Barcelona last several matches before and they had more confidence than Napoli have very poor performance in domestic league. Barcelona more favorable than Napoli when both team face each other in Champion League knock out round match, I think Barcelona can manage for winning above two goals on the first leg match.

Napoli's performance this season is even worse in the domestic league this season, Napoli has fired its coach twice because Napoli's performance is very bad. until this week Napoli was only ranked 9th in the Italian league standings. very different from its appearance from last season which was able to win the Italian league title. but playing at home I think Napoli will provide resistance. if you lose, you only lose by a difference of 1 goal, it can be 1-0 or 2-1.

That's why the club has kicked mazzarri out from the club.

- Inconsistency
- Poor performance
- The squad is not persistent and many more.

Various reasons to explain why napoli was not willing to keep mazzarri as a coach. He was very poorly in handling the club and no improvement happened. No surprise to see that napoli has sacked him. The club must have gotten a better coach than him. A coach that has a bunch of experiences in european competition and italian league.
It must be jose mourinho. Im not seeing a better candidate than him available for now. I think that people were also thinking the same like me.

Im still waiting for the name to replace mazzari, im sure that napoli has got it caused by the club was taking the risk to sack him at the middle of season.

Im still waiting for the name to replace mazzari, im sure that napoli has got it caused by the club was taking the risk to sack him at the middle of season.

It's Francesco Calzona, a manager that was previously managed Slovakia's national teams https://www.pulsesports.ng/football/story/francesco-calzona-osimhen-gets-familiar-face-as-third-napoli-manager-this-season-2024021920200578373

He can become a Napoli's manager because Osimhen is choosing him, Osimhen now is like Mbappe in PSG, a mini boss who has a control on the team lol.

PSV have done well by getting to this stage, but every story comes to an end. I think it is the end of the road for PSV when it comes to the champions league this season.

It is true that Dortmund enters the Champions League much more often, but this is not a benchmark for determining victory. Don't underestimate PSV this year, if I look at PSV this year it is much better than Dortmund in the local league. I think PSV has shown quite strong play in the group face up to the last 16 at the moment by experiencing only 1 defeat in group B face. Playing at home is much more profitable for PSV, the support of the supporters also motivates the players.

Fullkrug has been in decent form along with their attacking mids Sancho, Reus and Brandt. Good defensive midfield too but the defence is slightly questionable, yet they should be able to hold their own and not leak goals.

We have maatsen who is still performing very well till now. I think that the chance for dortmund to win the game is big, the odds for dortmund is quite big caused by it will be playing away. PSV was strong enough and dortmund needs to be careful against it. The possible stratetgy to be used in this game was fully defensive game.
betting on dortmund is involving quite high risk for us. PSV can't be considered as easy team. I knew that these teams were not having good position at the domestic league but i think that if PSV can be considered as a strong team as well. It has been placed at the second place under arsenal.

This club was also rarely lost in the group stage too. This can be the main consideration to think that if dortmund will face many difficulties to beat it. I can't even wait for the next match to happen soon. There will be a lot of interesting thing to happen. I hope that i will be seeing something big to happen.
Dortmund can win against it easily. Let's see what's going to happen soon. I have my choice for dortmund to win the game with narrow score against PSV.

The both coaches are very tactical and knows the right formation to follow each team they meet but regarding the fact that they are from two separate leagues would make their formation look complex for today's match.

Inter are leading Serie A and they have created a good gap from the second place and now they can safely throw all their energies into the Champions League. Therefore, I have no doubt that the winner of the first match will be Inter and Atletico will find it very difficult to get even a draw. Inter this season do not allow themselves to make mistakes, and even more so in home games. Therefore, it is not surprising that Inter are the favourites and everyone believes in the success of the Italians.

In the match of PSG vs Real Sociedad team, Real Sociedad team did not score any goal. PSG team scored 2 goals to win the match. Before halftime, the players of both teams tried hard to score, but neither team could score any goal. After halftime, PSG team scored two goals.K.  Mbappe and B.  Two Barcola players scored in this match.

I was not surprised by the result between Paris Saint-Germain and Real Sociedad in the UEFA Champions League round of 16, because the match ended as I predicted. PSG will not be playing with pressure when they visit Real Sociedad, and if they can get a draw at Real Sociedad, they will qualify for the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League this season.

At least, Real Sociedad this season doesn't seem to have high aggressiveness in scoring goals so ya, playing against PSG will certainly make it difficult for Real Sociedad to score goals . With that result, I don't think it would be a surprise if Real Sociedad lost without being able to reply. But ya, basically Real Sociedad doesn't have a good chance against PSG because after all, PSG position is safe in the Ligue 1 standings . So yes, with that factor certainly makes PSG able to play well in this phase, because PSG only gets opponents who do not have a level above average. But for the next phase, of course it will still not be easy for PSG to go further.

PSG defeated Real Sociedad 2-0 at home in the first leg of the Champions League against Real Sociedad, and PSG led by two goals going into the next match. A two-goal lead in the first match is a positive for any team. PSG not playing their next match at PSG's home ground is no problem as PSG are two goals ahead. To advance to the next round, Real Sociedad must win their next match against PSG by a minimum margin of three goals, otherwise PSG will secure the next round. PSG did really well in the first leg match and that great performance has put them in a good position for the next match. With the way PSG is currently performing, I am optimistic about the second match as well, hoping to see a good result in PSG's second leg match as well.
