UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[$crypto$]

The good thing after this first round is, we have basically all the keys open, and everything can happen, for me we can expect as i said before an Atletico Madrid coming back on Madrid, and also we expect the comeback of Arsenal in London, about Napoli Barcelona is a no clue game.

LEts see what is ahead for us, prepare your bets.

It is still wide open that is currently behind 1-0 on aggregate while in the second leg many of them return to play at their home this could determine the result where they will qualify so this match will be more interesting at the odds offered by the bookie.

Arsenal returning to London can turn things around with Porto because falling behind is not a big thing so Arsenal are still able to return the goal back.
Atletico playing at home, they still have motivation but remember Inter Milan's game is now better and stronger in defense, the host must have a way to win.
Barcelona, still a bit in doubt but they still have a chance.
Bayern Munich, still big to win but if they fail then Tuchel will be under pressure.

[hahay]

I agree with you that Barcelona will win against Napoli in the second leg of the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 matches. Napoli's performance against Barcelona was poor. Napoli just managed to have one shot on target against Barcelona, which led to a goal that earned them a draw. With Napoli's present form, it will be hard for them to beat Barcelona at Camp Nou.

I totally agree with you although this situation really displeases me
It`s not nice to see a team from your own country fall so low. However, I am not really sure of the result, Barcelona are also currently having a small crisis with Xavi`s departure, or have they taken this news well? Just for understand

Although in this match or in this first leg Napoli only had 1 shot on target but anyway, the fact is that Napoli managed to score a goal also in this match. That means, Napoli's performance was not bad at all because anyway, if Napoli played badly then with the lack of shots on target then at least Napoli would not be able to score. But anyway, the fact is that Napoli managed to hold Barcelona to a draw and therefore, I cannot judge about a bad performance on Napoli in the first leg. But indeed, with the quality that Napoli and Barcelona have at this moment, of course Barcelona still has a better chance of qualifying than Napoli, and I also believe that Barcelona will succeed in defeating Napoli in the second leg later.

[giammangiato]

There was no winner in the Napoli-Barcelona match.Napoli managed to draw with a terrible game at home.Barcelona has the potential to beat Napoli, but it seems that things are not going well for them either.At least it's a good enough result for Barcelona.They will win the next match at home and go through.
I didn't expect Arsenal to lose.I thought the match was very unpleasant because only 2 of the shots taken by both teams during the 90 minutes were accurate, one of which was a goal in the last minute.Arsenal, despite playing well, couldn't be very effective in front of goal against Porto and left with a goal in the last minute.Arsenal will have to show an extra performance at home now.

Clearly, Napoli does not have a good performance because something broke, while last season Spalletti managed to keep everything united and close, this year after the arrival of the Spanish coach the game broke, and not By giving balls to Victor you dont score goals and you dont win.
Osimen proved to be very strong anyway, all see this

Most likely Porto will use a defensive strategy and target a draw at the Emirates, Arsenal will have difficulty beating Porto even though the goal margin is only 1-0. On paper Arsenal chances were very good, but when they dominated the match and created chances, no one could convert them into goals. Porto would really benefit if Arsenal still played with the same style, they also wanted to qualify for the quarter finals and Arsenal failed to anticipate their style of play.

Full defensive is very good tactical for FC Porto on second leg match against Arsenal, get capital winning over one goal and draw result on second leg match more enough for FC Porto qualifying to quarter final although Arsenal's advantage with playing in their home. I think will make frustrated with the opponent team when FC Porto make full defensive strategies on second leg match.
I think FC Porto can take advantage with counter attack with Arsenal will play more offensive make space with their defense position, be careful for Mikel Arteta if Porto will play more defensive and Arsenal payer get frustrated how difficult scoring goals make their defense players will leave their position.

Porto was just lucky with their win against Arsenal because the gunners dominated the match unfortunately couldn't capitalize on their dominance of the game by being wasteful in front of goal probably due to inexperience of their players, however I don't think Porto can defend their lone goal advantage at the Emirates it's going to be a different ball game because Arsenal would launch massive attack to win the return match knowing that failure to win means they are out of this season UCL, of course Porto would deploy a defensive tactics because of the attacking prowess of the gunners and utilize or adopt a counter attack

[QueenVera]

Yes, you are right, it is possible that Porto will carry out a strategy like what you said and I also said that before, I admit that Porto's defense is very strong so that Arsenal are completely unable to create opportunities, but this is likely because Arsenal's players cannot shoot on target so they don't was able to break into Porto's goal, while Porto himself shot at goal twice and 1 of them resulted in a goal in the last minute and that was of course very painful for Arsenal because who would have thought that Arsenal would try to hold a draw in the first leg so that in the second leg Arsenal would beat Porto easily but unfortunately Arsenal conceded a goal.

Of course, any coach would be disappointed if they saw their club lose, especially in a big competition like this, even all Arsenal fans would also feel the same disappointment and even many bettors would lose because of course there are many who favor Arsenal, but what is called a surprise is true. we can't predict it because Porto also cannot be underestimated, he has prepared himself before meeting on the field and this really makes him happy because he was able to beat Arsenal in the first leg and will make a defensive strategy in the future second leg if Arsenal uses a less powerful attack strategy.

Arsenal making it to the UCL Knockout Round after over 7 years of being absent was a very big match to watch out for. This match was one their fans anticipated especially with Porto’s experience many had high expectations on Arsenal. The match happened and yes the surprise too was served by Porto in the last minutes of this match and this was really crazy for the coach, the fans and some punters who had high hopes in Arsenal team. Arsenal are currently a better team than Porto and I understand the frustration the match had. No one thought Arsenal will be able to concede defeat in this match as Arsenal have more better and a younger squad than Porto side. One part of this match that must be commended is the rock soild defense of this Porto side. This defense was able to stand tall all through the time of this match.

They made Arsenal attackers look so useless in front of goal by going home with 0 shot on target and this was a crazy stat that has got the fans so angry. Arteta dishing out his anger on his squad is quite understandable but he must now look for a way to reclaim victory at the Emirate. They still have a big chance to qualify as the difference is just with a goal and Arsenal at the Emirate can hit up over 3-5 goals there. Now they must try to look for the best way to break down this Porto team because I think Porto will still come with the mindset of defending their goal and hoping to go through to the next round with that lone goal and maybe a lucky goal. I still have high hopes on Arsenal going through to the last 8 but they’ll have to work through thick and thin to make this possible. With their young squad they can achieve that and I still want the fans to keep the hope alive.

What you say is true, this season Napoli is not as good as last season and I can say their game has dropped significantly after their coach left last season. Even in this match, they were still very lucky because they didn't lose, because if you look at their game, you can say that they deserved to lose. They only had 1 open opportunity which could immediately become a goal to equalize and make the match end in a draw. I think in the second leg, if their game is still like this, they will lose very easily to Barcelona. They must be able to develop and improve the way they play if they still want to go further in the Champions League.
Likewise with Barcelona, I think they played well because their opponents were much worse, and if they had a better opponent than Napoli I doubt they would be able to win the match. Maybe their real test will come in the quarter-finals, because it is certain that their opponents in that round (if they qualify) will be stronger than the opponents they are currently facing. However, the problem lies in the internal problems they are still facing, whether they like it or not, it has a big influence on their game this season.

You should make sure you do whatever works for you, and Portuguese side did whatever they could have done to be winners of that first leg.
There'll be so much highlights on the second half at home against Arsenal, the Londoners would have a good chance to win or lose at home.
Gunner's might be doing well in the English Premier League Competition but whenever it comes to the Champions League they ave to double whatever they're going to make sure they go through this round.

I remember the days with Bayern Munich you know, lol, they'd try all they can but Bayern Munich would subdue them.

[MAAManda]

Agree, not a big problem for Arsenal, but they have to remain alert to their current condition, when it becomes a full defensive match for Porto, it will be hell for Arsenal. I previously forgot to mention that apart from Otavio, they also have Pepe there, so Arsenal must really solve Porto's solid defensive problem. Remember that Porto only needs a draw here to advance to the next round.

Pepe is old his physical endurance must not be as good as when he was young. against a young Arsenal team playing at home and spartan pepe will definitely drain physical and energy so performance for 90 minutes will definitely not be stable. as long as Arsenal does not concede a goal first or the players do not quickly despair, they can definitely advance to the next round.

Everyone also knows that an athlete's performance will decline as they get older, but I think you can rethink your words. Look at the rating on their match yesterday, he played well with Joao Mario, Otavio & Wendell. Usually older players will be played for half game, but not Pepe, he played the full game. Arsenal still have the biggest opportunity to progress to the next round, but that doesn't mean we have to underestimate Porto, we'll see what will happen in the second leg. Honestly, I wouldn't bet on this match because I think it's too risky.

I think that one of the major problems of Pepe will be exacerbated because of his progressing age and that is his brutal tackling. He is known for that and he forever been an extremely unfair player, but now when he is slower than his opponents and he becomes worse at getting the timings right, I think it could be more of a threat for his team to see him receive a red card. Maybe they are still valuing his positioning game and they know that he can make up for a speed deficiency due to that, but at some points there are limits to that. If he is still in a top physical condition, maybe it's the best option they have. But having a defender who is about to turn 41 years old doesn't sound too promising to me.

Did they say whether this is going to be his last season or are there any talks or even negotiations going on about a contract extension for him? I don't really care and it would be pretty crazy to see someone approach his mid 40s and still play in the Champions League I think the only position where this sounds kind of acceptable would be the goalkeeper position and even there 41 is very old.

I get the impression that Arsenal basically don’t give a damn how the away game will go if they have a decisive home game in hand. Even in the group stage, they lost to Lens away (when it still mattered - it was only the second round). Probably a lot of bettors were burned out yesterday because of this result, but now it seems to me that a good opportunity is opening up: a bet with a handicap of -1 (or even -2, but this is a big risk) on Arsenal to win the return leg. With all due respect to Porto, I don’t believe that they will be able to hold such a second match with maximum luck.

To me, it is disappointing to see Arsenal lose to Porto. It doesn't matter home or way the match, you are the one seeing these as a small deal, but to me, it is disappointment, and that Porto are too small for Arsenal to defeat even though I know its a football. Furthermore, Porto are weak, and Arsenal are strong, so you are saying that they will meet in the second leg, I don't see that as a reason for them to allow Porto to win them. I was expecting them to do the same thing they are consistently doing in the EPL, so I see these as a disappointment.

Yes, I'm disappointed too, but look at the odds for the return game:

1.24 - 5.39 - 12.25

Even with a -1 handicap, Arsenal's odds of winning are estimated to be 1.76. This means that bookmakers consider the most likely score in the second game to be 2-0 or 3-1 (which would be enough for Arsenal to advance). It’s hard to disagree with them and I must note that the quotes are not as favorable as I expected, because Arsenal can win 1-0, or 2-1 (which is most likely, since I don’t believe that they will score just one goal) and decide everything issues in extra time.

[Ryu_Ar1]

They have a good history and that cannot be denied but in this case when we only always focus on past history, Barcelona will not progress, it will experience a setback because glorifying the past is only used as an excuse to think they are fine but the fact is that currently their problems are still very much and this is precisely what must be considered for Barcelona today so as not to be too complacent about the past because their difference in the golden era with the present is too far.
The current squad must create a new history for themselves so that the shadow of the past is not always mentioned even though it does not mean to forget but when complacent about the past it will only make them forget that in the end they cannot do their best and only take refuge in the golden era in the past.

Until now, their performance has not been able to be consistent in domestic competitions and that is a fact that cannot be denied especially now that the situation for financial and internal problems, especially after Xavi, who incidentally is one of the coaches who can lift their performance back by bringing the La Liga trophy which in the last few seasons has not been in their hands decided to leave.

Of course, don't equate the past season with this season because there are many differences visible in the Barcelona team. Yes, currently Barcelona performance is not consistent enough, but in my opinion, Xavi is prioritizing their strength for the Champions League because in Laliga they are already quite far behind Real Madrid. Even though their status is hampered by financial problems, this season Barcelona also has many quality players who they managed to bring in this season. For this reason, let's just see how Barcelona performs in the Champions League this season.

So in today match the score is 1-1. Even though Barcelona managed to score first, Napoli managed to equalize through a goal created by Osimhen. So the second half still has a long time, so if Barcelona manages to steal points at home to Napoli of course there is no doubt that they have a greater chance of progressing to the next round. Because in the second leg, Barcelona will play at home which can give them an advantage. But for that we wait for the final results of today's match.

They prioritize the Champions League but we are certainly aware that there are no guarantees about this.
Round of 16 first leg at this time Barcelona is still not necessarily able to qualify even though their big chance is very much there now especially they can dominate Napoli in the previous away match in the first leg but that is still no guarantee because after all even though Napoli is currently like a club in pain but they also cannot be underestimated considering there are several players in the Napoli squad who are quite dangerous and should be aware of their movements.
At the moment Barcelona's problem remains the same, they may indeed shift their focus in the Champions League because for La Liga this is still a little complicated if forced but they also still have to concentrate on domestic competitions because after all when the Champions League they fail then there is hope in domestic competitions although at the moment they can only expect Madrid to lose their concentration and not play well in the remaining matches played.

How could that be luck? Porto achieved it with great difficulty and even until the last minute they didn't give up. Arsenal really deserved to lose because they couldn't produce results equivalent to what they performed in the English Premier League and once they lost they had to regret it because it was in a bigger competition. I still believe that Porto will do the same thing at home to Arsenal and if Porto succeeds in widening the aggregate then Arsenal will be eliminated in the Champions League.

[Solidized]

Manchester city will definitely go back to back in winning the UEFA Champions league because the biggest challenge I think they will face right now is Real Madrid of which I think even Madrid can not stop them.

The quality and total productivity of almost every human declines with age and not just withe athletes or footballers so it's really something that we shouldn't see like a  thing peculiar to athletes alone both every other person in their various field but they will have the advantage of been much more experienced than the younger ones and they be able to get more hacks to get their jobs done even faster.

With athletes they usually have the advantage of been able to still perform regardless of their age because they actually participate in daily active works that keeps their body always moving and so their productive for a while is still able to be maintained.  Arsenal still got a chance to play and get pass this stage of the champions league and also at the same time they are at the verge of loosing it to the Porto too because if they allow their self not to in the second leg, they may stand the risk of not been able to continue with the champions league again this season and it will be a good achievement for Porto because I'm sure they wouldn't believe they would make it to this point.

But indeed, with the quality that Napoli and Barcelona have at this moment, of course Barcelona still has a better chance of qualifying than Napoli, and I also believe that Barcelona will succeed in defeating Napoli in the second leg later.

Barcelona will act as hosts in the second leg, in this case I think Xavi fleet is lucky and will most likely make it through to the quarter-finals. However, beating Napoli is certainly not as easy as turning the palm of your hand, we know that Osimhen is a player who can make a difference, Xavi must apply a special strategy to reduce his movements.

Basically, the performance of Napoli and Barcelona is very difficult to predict recently, as defending champions in their respective domestic competitions, these two teams have experienced setbacks this season. However, Napoli decline in performance was more significant, so management had to fire Rudia Garcia and Walter Mazzarri, now Francesco Calzona is managing Napoli as the new coach.

As a first match with Napoli, a draw against Barcelona in the first leg may be a big achievement for Calzona, but that will soon end when the second leg rolls around. It is possible that the match will end in a draw in normal time, and it will take extra time to find a winner. On paper, Barcelona deserves to be superior, but Napoli cannot be taken lightly.

It is still wide open that is currently behind 1-0 on aggregate while in the second leg many of them return to play at their home this could determine the result where they will qualify so this match will be more interesting at the odds offered by the bookie.

Arsenal returning to London can turn things around with Porto because falling behind is not a big thing so Arsenal are still able to return the goal back.
Atletico playing at home, they still have motivation but remember Inter Milan's game is now better and stronger in defense, the host must have a way to win.
Barcelona, still a bit in doubt but they still have a chance.
Bayern Munich, still big to win but if they fail then Tuchel will be under pressure.

Seem like whenever you check them meeting together, Arsenal has them way of returning to be winners of the second leg or the games they play at home. Gunner's can still go ahead to win the game two goals to nothing to finally cross into the next round of the tournament.

Arsenal would be cautious while attacking as they would be paying close attention to the midfielder's and the defenders otherwise if they attack too offensively they'll be exploited.
Mikel Arteta should learn all the available lessons right now. He needs a striker who has the abilities of shinning during Premier League games and Competitions and also the Champions League Competition.
Right now, Saka and Odegaard have not helped the te successfully in the Champions League Competition.

Full defensive is very good tactical for FC Porto on second leg match against Arsenal, get capital winning over one goal and draw result on second leg match more enough for FC Porto qualifying to quarter final although Arsenal's advantage with playing in their home. I think will make frustrated with the opponent team when FC Porto make full defensive strategies on second leg match.
I think FC Porto can take advantage with counter attack with Arsenal will play more offensive make space with their defense position, be careful for Mikel Arteta if Porto will play more defensive and Arsenal payer get frustrated how difficult scoring goals make their defense players will leave their position.

Regardless of strategy, Porto only needs to end the match with a draw or win to qualify for the quarter-finals. However, it is unlikely that this plan will easily come true because Arsenal will try to maximize their home advantage to win the match. It is this away game that is the real challenge for Porto, even if they have 1 goal in hand, it is not much.

Arteta is likely to change his playing strategy after learning something in the first leg against Porto. He knows Porto is strong in defense, so Arteta will adjust his strategy to damage Porto's defensive dominance. Maybe it was too risky for Porto to use the bus parking strategy, it was not a very wise choice when they had a chance to play a little offensively.

A 1-goal aggregate is enough to secure their position and indeed defending the same as in the first leg is a strategy that is still very good for them to do but it will certainly be very difficult for them.
In the first leg we saw Arsenal's dominance was very good, it's just that they missed in the last minute of extra time which made them have to chase the aggregate that happened now but we know for the second leg they will play at their own home which sometimes emirates stadium is very haunted and it could be that Porto must be willing to lose a place.
I think it will be interesting because after all, Arsenal certainly don't want them to be eliminated when the opportunity they have been waiting for for several years waiting to play in the Champions League stops at this time.

FC Porto escaping with a lone goal in their home is impressive, kudos to them but I don't think they can repeat that when they visit Arsenal at Emirate in second leg.
Arsenal is stronger at home

I don't think it will be a very good plan if FC Porto is going to play more of defense in the returning leg again Arsenal at Emirate Stadium, the one goal victory that Porto got is not enough to see them progress to rhe next round this is because Arsenal will come all out with a lot of pressure to see if they can get an early goal then they will push attack but once they find it difficult to score they will fall back ro defend the one goal they have while they keep pushing to ensure they get a winner goal  even they it won't be an easy game for them.
