UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[piebeyb]

For Tauchle, it is currently considered a failure to handle Bayern Munich with all the problems they are facing and the high possibility of retaining the Bundesliga title.

Munich will clearly have difficulty winning the Bundesliga title this season, because Leverkusen is very favored and already feels confident in breaking Munich's dominance this season, at least seeing the new champions this season and Leverkusen deserves to replace Munich in the title race this season, considering Tuchel Having failed to maintain Munich's dominance in the Bundesliga so far he is not in a good position, the possibility is that he will probably be fired if he fails in the UCL too.

I think we know that Tuchel actually can't be kept in Munich anymore because he didn't really succeed in bringing Munich to win the title this season, the Bundesliga seems like they have no hope of catching up with Leverkusen who so far have consistently maintained their record as a top club. have not been defeated this season, of course Munich will not have the opportunity to win the Bundesliga title at the hands of Leverkusen and while the UCL seems like Munich will have to work hard to beat Lazio in the second leg because it is hoped that victory will make Munich progress to the next round, but if it fails then This season, Munich is without a title this season and it is certain that Tuchel will be fired

[DanWalker]

In my opinion, Manchester City and Real Madrid will have no difficulty in the second leg and indeed their percentage of qualifying is very high.
I am looking forward to Arsenal's match against Porto and Bayern against Lazio, this will be interesting to look forward to because the potential for Arsenal and Bayern to turn things around is very big.

Arsenal, who will play at home, will be very favourites, they are only 1 goal behind and with the strength they have now I am very confident they will be able to turn things around.
This is not to underestimate Porto, but it must be admitted that Arsenal's quality is much better than Porto.

I think difference opportunity between Manchester City and Real Madrid on second legs match although both teams will playing on their home match, Manchester City has advantage by winning two margin goals after first leg defeated Copenhagen over 1-3 and seems easily for second leg match won over 2-0 or get draw. But difference position for Real Madrid because their margin only one goals and too risk for second leg match exactly RB Leipzig will playing more offensive on the early minutes.
But Madrid had impressive performance on every matches at their home, not difficult for defeating Madrid when playing in Santiago Bernabeu stadium and will be most crucial for Leipzig how possibility win over two goals.

Manchester City are not worried about their second leg match. They won the away match by 3-1. After winning by 2 goals, they are in safe place now. Manchester City will try to win the home match as well. But I think City will play a bit defensive strategy in this match. Because Guardiola would not want any player in his squad to face injury. Along with winning the Champions League title, the team is also trying to win the Premier League title.

Real Madrid secured a narrow 1-0 win in the away match. There is no doubt that Madrid are strong at home. However, some key players in Madrid's squad are injured. So it won't be easy for Madrid to beat Leipzig at home. I think this match will be very competitive.

But difference position for Real Madrid because their margin only one goals and too risk for second leg match exactly RB Leipzig will playing more offensive on the early minutes.
But Madrid had impressive performance on every matches at their home, not difficult for defeating Madrid when playing in Santiago Bernabeu stadium and will be most crucial for Leipzig how possibility win over two goals.

Manchester City will be guaranteed to qualify for the next round because in the second leg they were very comfortable, because in the first leg Manchester City managed to win the match with a score of 1-3 at home to Copenhagen. The second leg will also take place at the Etihad Stadium so Manchester City's chances of winning will be much greater because they have a superior goal aggregate and are playing in front of their own supporters. Real Madrid is also the same and I am quite confident that they will win the match even though they won the first leg by a small score.

RB Leipzig could play more offensively, but they would not be able to defend using this strategy because Real Madrid could attack with full strength. Playing at the Bernabeu Stadium is a nightmare and especially for the Champions League, the stadium is very haunted for opponents who play there.

[Inwestour]

Lazio will only aim to draw the match in the second leg. The team will not be able to win the away match against Bayern Munich. Because Lazio knows very well that it is very difficult to win against Bayern Munich. And they were very lucky to win the home match. Lazio will be tactical in the second leg. And will play a completely defensive strategy. It will be very difficult for Bayern Munich's players to break down Lazio's defence.

In my opinion, choosing a defensive strategy against an attacking team is a very bad strategy, but on the other hand, Lazio has no other choice, and they can just hope that they can not concede a single goal from Bayern in two matches, it sounds doubtful, but they need to proceed somehow from the existing situation.

And whatever the situation in the team, even if this is true and the players thus showed Tuchel that he does not decide everything, it seems to me that in the match with Leipzig the situation changed and in the return match with Lazio, Bayern will show a completely different game. Just look at Bayern's stats, how the team generally plays, how many shots on target they average per game, and how many they did against Lazio. If Lazio can at least draw in Munich it will be a very big sensation.

I think we know that Tuchel actually can't be kept in Munich anymore because he didn't really succeed in bringing Munich to win the title this season, the Bundesliga seems like they have no hope of catching up with Leverkusen who so far have consistently maintained their record as a top club. have not been defeated this season, of course Munich will not have the opportunity to win the Bundesliga title at the hands of Leverkusen and while the UCL seems like Munich will have to work hard to beat Lazio in the second leg because it is hoped that victory will make Munich progress to the next round, but if it fails then This season, Munich is without a title this season and it is certain that Tuchel will be fired

I think more precisely Tuchel is not fired but he will resign at the end of the season. He knows his capacity is no longer adequate in handling Bayern Munich and that is why he is self-aware without having to be pressured by unilateral decisions. We know that his failure in the domestic league was the beginning of the downfall of his career at Bayern Munich and for a long time the results could not improve and instead got worse every day. The conditions are almost the same as what Bayern Munich is currently experiencing in the Champions League and we know whatever the result will not change anything other than Tuchel will still leave in the future.

I think even if Bayern Munich fails in the Champions League and is eliminated by Lazio, then they will realize that there is no one to blame anymore considering that they couldn't fix it from the start. However, even if Bayern Munich qualify, it won't change anything other than saving them from embarrassment in the higher rounds and previous expectations which placed Bayern Munich as one of the finalist teams in this season's Champions League will have disappeared.

[Spaceman1000$]

Even though Bayern Munich trailed Lazio 1-0 in the first leg, Champions League fans expectations of them are still very high, that Thucel is predicted to be able to manage his team to turn things around at the Allianz Arena. But maybe this is a moment that can trap bettors, who fail to see Lazio as a team that can create a surprise like what happened in the first leg. Maurizio Sarri is an experienced figure, he has more strategic options to maintain his team advantage. To minimize risks, it is possible that Sarri will choose a pragmatic strategy. Harry Kane cannot bump if Sarri chooses to park the bus in the penalty box.

These two coaches have both coached Chelsea, but Tuchel had a better portfolio when coaching Chelsea. 
Psychologically, perhaps Munich is the favorite to be able to turn things around when they host Lazio at the Allianz and ensure they qualify for the next round.

In my opinion, Lazio's performance in the domestic league is mediocre, not superior. This opens up the opportunity for Lazio to have ups and downs in performance.
The pressure from the Munich supporters at Allianz could have caused the Lazio players to drop mentally so that Munich could take advantage of it to steal more than 2 goals.
Moreover, in the Lazio lineup there are not many players who have experience competing in the UCL.

I Agree with you on the part of lazio not having players with much experience in the champions League, on like Bayern Munich players, who have been playing in the champions league almost every season, however tuchel for me hasn't been at his best since he arrived Munich, maybe he needs time or maybe he hasn't gotten the required technique to survive the bundles legal, on like when he came to Chelsea and turned things around for the London club withing the first few period he came. However his successor in Chelsea Mauricio pochettino has been doing an awful job.

[Plaguedeath]

I think even if Bayern Munich fails in the Champions League and is eliminated by Lazio, then they will realize that there is no one to blame anymore considering that they couldn't fix it from the start. However, even if Bayern Munich qualify, it won't change anything other than saving them from embarrassment in the higher rounds and previous expectations which placed Bayern Munich as one of the finalist teams in this season's Champions League will have disappeared.

Correct, in the end Bayern Munich won't become a champion, but it's really embarrassing if they gets eliminated by Lazio, I'm sure Tuchel would be fired a day after they lose.

Mark my words, the champion in this season are either Manchester City, Real Madrid or Inter Milan, the rest don't have any chance. I think this time should be Real Madrid, even Girona was overtake them, but they can regain back their position and stand strongers.

The away goals rule made no sense, it defied logic and forced teams to play cautiously at home - obviously the fans who came to watch their team attack suffered from this. There was only one mistake in the away goals rule: its introduction.
As for the Swiss system, it is such garbage that hardly anyone will look at it. Just like no one watches the three rounds of qualifying before the group tournament. Now you don’t have to watch games in the group “officially” but just wait for the playoff stage.

The worst part about it was that if the first game ended 1-0, the second leg was all about strategy because it meant that this one successful counter attack would essentially turn the game into a 3-0 lead for the team that won the first game at home without conceding a goal. I think the change of the rules was the right thing to do here. I am not always happy with what the UEFA is doing, but this was a good one and definitely contributes to a higher quality experience for the fans and the players.

If a team loses the first game 2-0, almost all hope was lost as conceding a single goal in the second game meant that they had to score at least 4 goals. Now it is still very possible to turn a game around, which makes it much more fun to watch for the fans and also for the players to actually play that second game.

I remember the times when Atletico won the first leg 1-0, what a horror it was to watch the second leg because everyone knew what to expect from Atletico during that second leg.

In fact, any score turned the return game into a nightmare. You have already described 1-0. Now let's say the visitors won 2-1, in which case all they could do was play the bus in the return leg and hope they didn't lose by 2 goals, a 1-0 defeat was completely acceptable. It was a real mockery of football and fans.
And yes, it’s completely absurd when the overall score is, for example, 3-3, but one of the teams goes further “just because.” It's hard for me to praise UEFA here since they just corrected their own mistake, but it's good that it happened.
I hope the same thing will happen with the Swiss system, in my opinion it looks unviable.

I honestly felt differently about a 1-0 back at the time because most of the teams that played in the Champions League knew that they would probably score one goal in the second leg, at least when we reached the round of 16 most of the teams had the quality to score. It destroyed a lot in my opinion. Or let's say it this way, of course when the home team in the second leg scored first then the game was equalized, but the away team still had the chance for the knockout with just a single goal. What's the excitement if the away team scores the 1-1 in the 84th minute? Everyone knew that it was essentially over. This is fundamentally different today, which is good. Even if a team takes the lead in the second leg by one goal, it doesn't matter what minute of the game it is, there is still a chance to counter that goal for the team that fell behind.

What's the deal with the Swiss system? Lol, I feel like a newbie, should I know that?

[rahmad2nd]

Of course playing at home is a big advantage for a team, but for Bayern Munich they are currently experiencing a significant decline in performance in the last few matches so that is a possibility for Lazio.

If you look at the overall strength of these two teams, of course Bayern Munich has stronger strength, but I have a little doubt that Bayern Munich will easily beat Lazio in the second leg because of the problems they are currently experiencing.

For Tauchle, it is currently considered a failure to handle Bayern Munich with all the problems they are facing and the high possibility of retaining the Bundesliga title.

Goes up and don't performance in a team often happens, even though the team is basically a big and strong team. like what happened to Bayern Munich, after being defeated by Leverkusen. since that match, Bayern Munich has looked like a team experiencing internal problems. for example, a crisis of confidence, a player being injured, the system and pattern being implemented ineffective, as well as a mistake by one of the players. Bayern suffered two defeats after that, and almost ended in a draw in the match against Leipzig. Before Bayern host Lazio in the second leg, Thomas Tuchel's squad and his team will visit to play a match against Freiburg. so, we can look back at how Bayern Munich performed after Tuchel reviewed and improved his team's squad.

Talking about Bayern's Champions League match, as we agree, Bayern has the advantage of playing at the Allianz Arena, their home ground. playing in front of their supporters, will provide strong motivation for Bayern to overthrow the opposing team's squad. and Tuchel as Bayern coach, will do his job by making his team solid and prioritizing teamwork. in fact, I don't want to rush into speculation, even though I'm sure Bayern will be able to beat Lazio in the second leg meeting later. moreover, if we refer to the temporary betting market, Bayern Munich is far superior to Lazio in the second leg. well, let's just wait before these two teams meet.

[bastisisca]

I think Lazio is super lucky because everything in Bayern Munich is even getting worse. This team is in crisis because of their coach and it seems we are going to see a new coach instead of Tuchel in Bayern Munich soon.
They won the first leg against Bayern Munich with a 1-0 result with Bayern Munich got a red card and these all can help them to even beat Bayern Munich in the second leg too because there is not a good atmosphere in Bayern Munich right now.
Maybe Bayern Munich can get kicked oof of this tournament even before everyone could imagine to see.

I wouldn`t say luck, let`s say that Lazio woke up from a torpor that lasted months, in fact I didn`t think they would wake up again and I made a mistake in the prediction on an internal match (with Torino).

So be careful not to underestimate them, they are not an easy team to face, for everyone.

I believe every league has its own pattern and approach a coach needs before he can successfully get his players at their best. And that is what Tuchel is doing. I cannot conclude that he is not managing Bayern Munich so well. We all know what he can do and what he has done. However, Lazio is no match for Bayern Munich. With this current level of both teams, i can assure you that Bayern Munich will win flawlessly.

We shouldn't forget that Bayern Munich has quality players but i don't really know what is going on with them in the Bundesliga. Maybe in UCL we may a see a better performance. Let's hope so.

[bering]

Manchester City are not worried about their second leg match. They won the away match by 3-1. After winning by 2 goals, they are in safe place now. Manchester City will try to win the home match as well. But I think City will play a bit defensive strategy in this match. Because Guardiola would not want any player in his squad to face injury. Along with winning the Champions League title, the team is also trying to win the Premier League title.

Real Madrid secured a narrow 1-0 win in the away match. There is no doubt that Madrid are strong at home. However, some key players in Madrid's squad are injured. So it won't be easy for Madrid to beat Leipzig at home. I think this match will be very competitive.

Just like i said before Manchester City is lucky because as defending champion they didn't gets decent opponents since group stages and for round of 16 too compared to any other strong teams who playing at round of 16 i think the most comfortable is Manchester City because they got easy opponent Copenhagen and for second leg Manchester City will playing as a host and there is no chances for Copenhagen to win this match so clearly Copenhagen will be eliminate even my predictions is for second leg later Manchester City will playing with some of their reserved players because Guardiola want to ensure all of their players in the good fitness because they have a target want to pursuing Liverpool on Premier League

And for Real Madrid too although in the first leg they have to hard struggling to gets the winning result from Leipzig they also more likely will be qualified to quarterfinal moreover similar to Manchester City for second leg Real Madrid will playing at Santiago Bernabeu and i am sure Real Madrid will be able to beat Leipzig again at there and besides all of those teams who mentioned above i think PSG too will certainly to qualified because near to impossible for Sociedad to gets the winning results 3-0 from PSG especially Sociedad currently looks unstable at their domestic league

[Uruhara]

Tuchel will improve the attacking approach in the second leg. IMO
However, the players must push themselves physically and mentally to achieve a better result.
The defenders should avoid wasting time passing the ball back and forth and instead focus on passing directly to the wingers.
If Tuchel starts De Ligt and Eric Dier together in defense, Bayern's defense will be more stable.

Apart from that, currently Lazio even looks weak in Serie A. Because they also just lost to Fiorentina. And I think this could provide a bigger opportunity in the second leg that Bayern as the host will undoubtedly be able to make Lazio lose. H.Kane and friends will definitely be able to correct the mistakes they made in the first leg and replace them with the victory they will get in the second leg.

The performance of the two teams is actually quite different. Bayern just needs to improve their accuracy when making attacks. Because actually Lazio's defense is not that strong. Even this season in Serie A, Lazio cannot be said to be a solid team. Because it's even difficult to get close to the top 4 rankings. Last season Lazio did get good results at the end of the season. But this season Lazio got off to a bad start along with Napoli.

[ndutndut]

Playing at home could indeed be quite profitable for Bayern Munich in the second leg at the beginning of next month, because Lazio, who only have one goal in the first leg, will definitely have difficulty preventing Bayern Munich from getting more wins at the Allianz Arena. Because on the one hand Lazio is also not a very good Italian team this season so it will not be that difficult for Bayern Munich to win at home in the second leg with a score of more than one goal.

Of course playing at home is a big advantage for a team, but for Bayern Munich they are currently experiencing a significant decline in performance in the last few matches so that is a possibility for Lazio.

If you look at the overall strength of these two teams, of course Bayern Munich has stronger strength, but I have a little doubt that Bayern Munich will easily beat Lazio in the second leg because of the problems they are currently experiencing.

For Tauchle, it is currently considered a failure to handle Bayern Munich with all the problems they are facing and the high possibility of retaining the Bundesliga title.

Tuchel is certain to leave Bayern Munich at the end of the season because he failed to coach Bayern Munich and it is even certain that he failed to defend the Bundesliga title. But against Lazio, I think this will be a game changer for his career at Bayern Munich. If he fails to make a comeback against Lazio in the second leg, chances are he won't have to wait until the end of the season to leave Bayern Munich, he could be fired.

Because as you said, the quality of Bayern Munich's players is above Lazio and the second leg was played at the Allianz Arena, so there is no reason for Tuchel to fail in the second leg, he has to work hard to turn things around against Lazio because this is a gamble on his career too. So, in my prediction, Bayern Munich will advance to the next round.

[Sunderland]

I think Lazio is super lucky because everything in Bayern Munich is even getting worse. This team is in crisis because of their coach and it seems we are going to see a new coach instead of Tuchel in Bayern Munich soon.
They won the first leg against Bayern Munich with a 1-0 result with Bayern Munich got a red card and these all can help them to even beat Bayern Munich in the second leg too because there is not a good atmosphere in Bayern Munich right now.
Maybe Bayern Munich can get kicked oof of this tournament even before everyone could imagine to see.

The final results might be not the same if there was no a red card for Bayern in the minute 67' + a penalty.
Media said Bayern in crisis which probably true but Bayern is Bayern and this is the Champions League.
I dont think Lazio will be able to get a positive results in the 2nd leg later, in the 1st leg Bayern have 17 shoots but miraculously none of it are on target/shoot on target.

[AakZaki]

Bayern Munich was unable to win the first leg against Lazio due to their incompetence and weakness throughout the preceding week. The Bavarians ventured on a three-game losing streak, indicating catastrophic results for the team. Bayern Munich is returning stronger than ever, and this time they have no choice but to eliminate their opponents; they have enormous winnings. While Lazio is having one of its most dire seasons, they lost points in their previous game, but they aren't concerned because they are only competent at one thing: defensive tactics against Bayern Munich.

Lazio's 1-0 win was not enough to be safe for leg 2. They will visit Bayern Munich on March 6. Playing defense for 90 minutes is not easy. Both teams still have a chance to qualify, but I'm favoring Bayern Munich to qualify. Munich won their last match against Leipzig. It was a result that strengthened the players mentally. Tuchel should also need to prove that he is a good coach and can bring big changes. Of course qualifying for the last 8 is a realistic target and I feel confident that Tuchel and Bayern Munich are capable of doing that.

[Jatiluhung]

Of course playing at home is a big advantage for a team, but for Bayern Munich they are currently experiencing a significant decline in performance in the last few matches so that is a possibility for Lazio.

If you look at the overall strength of these two teams, of course Bayern Munich has stronger strength, but I have a little doubt that Bayern Munich will easily beat Lazio in the second leg because of the problems they are currently experiencing.

Although maybe you have doubts about Bayern due to Bayern's recent inconsistency. But you also have to be more doubtful about Lazio which is much worse than Bayern this season. In serie a Last season Lazio managed to finish in 2nd place in Serie A. But this season Lazio is still rotating in a ranking closer to 10th and is having difficulty getting closer. 4th place. But still, Bayern won't be able to beat Lazio easily. Lazio could even surprise Bayern in the second leg. But in actual analysis, Bayern should be able to qualify from the round of 16 this season. Because actually Lazio is not as strong as them. It's just that Lazio has a careful game and rarely makes gaps for big matches.

[poodle63]

I think even if Bayern Munich fails in the Champions League and is eliminated by Lazio, then they will realize that there is no one to blame anymore considering that they couldn't fix it from the start. However, even if Bayern Munich qualify, it won't change anything other than saving them from embarrassment in the higher rounds and previous expectations which placed Bayern Munich as one of the finalist teams in this season's Champions League will have disappeared.

Correct, in the end Bayern Munich won't become a champion, but it's really embarrassing if they gets eliminated by Lazio, I'm sure Tuchel would be fired a day after they lose.

But i would like to see bayern to be eliminated even early. It will be quite entertaining to see lazio goes to the further stage  im sure people will hate me coz majority of them will obviously put their bet on bayern. im still wondering whether davies will be still motivated caused by he has reached pre agreement to join in real madrid end of season.
it's confirmed that bayern and tuchel will part ways at the end of season.

The news that Bayern Munich and head coach Thomas Tuchel will part ways after the season should not have been all that stunning considering the club’s recent results, the rumore turmoil between the staff and the players, and the lack of alignment on the club’s future.

https://www.bavarianfootballworks.com/2024/2/25/24081643/thomas-muller-harry-kane-eric-dier-thomas-tuchels-bayern-munich-rb-leipzig-bundesliga-neuer
You shall not need to hope it to happen soon caused by some sources have confirmed this too.

Mark my words, the champion in this season are either Manchester City, Real Madrid or Inter Milan, the rest don't have any chance. I think this time should be Real Madrid, even Girona was overtake them, but they can regain back their position and stand strongers.

I prefer interimlan. City and madrid are still unstable but milan is kinda different. This club is having so many old players but it's the most balanced team in UCL right now. Intermilan gone to the final last season and it will happen again soon.

You forgot to put barcelona which is still stand a chance to get UCL this season. 

[giammangiato]

....
Xavi is an experienced one in UCL, he often won the UCL trophy when he was a player of Barcelona. Although he is now a coach, he must have the experience in UCL at least. But Napoli has an inexperienced coach for UCL competition. The coach has no experience as a player and as the coach as well. Francesco Calzona only has a career as an assistant manager. With this condition, Barcelona should have a bigger chance to qualify for the next round in UCL.

everything is right, but I am sorry to say, Barcelona will surely make us meatballs in the return match with Napoli, for sure
they drew with Cagliari, not exactly a very strong team, they cant always count on Victor magic, it doesnt work that way in team games, in my opinion

[Swordsoffreedom]

Lazio will only aim to draw the match in the second leg. The team will not be able to win the away match against Bayern Munich. Because Lazio knows very well that it is very difficult to win against Bayern Munich. And they were very lucky to win the home match. Lazio will be tactical in the second leg. And will play a completely defensive strategy. It will be very difficult for Bayern Munich's players to break down Lazio's defence.

In my opinion, choosing a defensive strategy against an attacking team is a very bad strategy, but on the other hand, Lazio has no other choice, and they can just hope that they can not concede a single goal from Bayern in two matches, it sounds doubtful, but they need to proceed somehow from the existing situation.

You are right, It is very risky to play only defensive strategy against the attacking team. But Lazio have no other option. Lazio is not a strong team. They were very lucky to win the first leg match. If luck wasn't on Lazio's side, they wouldn't have won against Bayern Munich. Their overall performance was not good either.



From these statistics it is easy to understand that Munich's performance was better than Lazio's. Munich's attacking players missed several easy chances. Otherwise, Lazio could not have won the match

And whatever the situation in the team, even if this is true and the players thus showed Tuchel that he does not decide everything, it seems to me that in the match with Leipzig the situation changed and in the return match with Lazio, Bayern will show a completely different game. Just look at Bayern's stats, how the team generally plays, how many shots on target they average per game, and how many they did against Lazio. If Lazio can at least draw in Munich it will be a very big sensation.

We have seen many times in the past on the Champions League platform that Bayern Munich and Real Madrid teams have made a great comeback in the second leg after poor performances in the first leg. We expect Bayern Munich to make a comeback this season as well. Because with Bayern Munich in the Champions League, the Champions League will become more competitive. This group is very strong. Munich is behind by only 1 goal. Hopefully the boys from Munich will not disappoint us in the second leg match. I especially want to see a great performance from Harry Kane.
