UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[Marvell1]

Munich is also considered a team that is good at turning things around. as they showed in the round of 16, they were behind in the first leg and reversed it in the second leg.
This situation could happen to Arsenal. and as you said, if Arteta wants to be safe, they have to be ahead by more than 1 goal. It will be quite difficult if Munich is in top form.
There is still preparation time, anything can happen, but I hope both teams are at their best when the game starts.

I would say this match is very difficult to predict. There is no doubt that the Bayern Munich team is more experienced than Arsenal in the Champions League. But Arteta's Arsenal are in very good form right now. Arsenal are currently at the top of the Premier League table. Beating such a team is definitely going to be a tough challenge for Bayern Munich.



Arsenal's past record against Bayern Munich on the Champions League platform is not good. The teams met twice in 2015 and 2017. Bayern Munich won all three matches by a big margin, Arsenal won one match 2-0. Bayern Munich will definitely want to continue this trend. But if none of Arsenal's key players suffer from injuries, and if Arsenal can play with their full squad, Arsenal have the potential to beat Bayern Munich this season.

It's actually a very difficult matchup to predict. Arteta wants to bring a lot of success for Arsenal this year, this is the motivation, there is no Bayern Munich, there is the championship desire that Arsenal has remembered for years. Bayern Munich is not going through a very destructive period as always, they are destructive this season, but they are not very destructive.

Arsenal have individual players who can win this match, I think Arsenal has a chance to win with a good game plan.

With the help of Arteta, Arsenal team is able to perform very well. Arsenal have won several Premier League matches by as big as 5-0. Arsenal's attack is in very good form right now. They are able to score a lot of goals. The players have adapted well to Arteta's match tactics. And that's why the bond between Arsenal's players is so strong now. And consistently this team is able to perform well.

On the other hand, Bayern Munich's condition is relatively weak. Munich's performance in the Bundesliga has also been erratic. They are not playing very well in the Champions League. Bayern Munich unexpectedly lost the first leg match against Lazio. If this erratic performance continues, a win against Arsenal will not be possible.

The Munich team is more experienced than Arsenal on the Champions League platform. However, Tuchel is yet to completely stabilize the Munich team. This is why I have considerable doubts about Munich's performance. The first leg match is Arsenal's home match. Looks like Arsenal will win at home.

You are right, Real Madrid and Manchester City are the two favorites in the Champions League this season, but unfortunately they had to meet too soon in the quarter-finals. I was basically expecting Manchester City to play Real Madrid in the semi-finals, but that never really came true.

Real Madrid has home advantage in the first leg, while Manchester City will have it in the second leg. Manchester City already have experience beating Real Madrid, but they will never be able to do the same thing every season if Ancelotti has learned enough from his mistakes last season. I would certainly expect the opposite, I mean Manchester City must can beat Real Madrid in the quarter-finals this season.

Yes, I also agree with you. Both Man City and Real Madrid are in top form. In a narrow lane, Real Madrid and Man City faced each other again for the fourth consecutive season in the Champions League. The rematch between Real Madrid and Man City in the quarterfinals of this year's Champions League promises to continue to be a tense match. Man City will continue to defeat Real Madrid this season. In terms of player quality, Man City is still better. Although the talents of the two coaches are equal. Real Madrid can only be firm when they get the final piece of the puzzle, Kylian Mbappé. Only then will they dominate this Europe. Regarding the current squad, Real Madrid cannot overwhelm Man City.

Manchester City and Real Madrid are the strongest teams and these two teams have the best chances to do well in the Champions League but unfortunately if Real Madrid and Manchester City face each other in the quarter finals we are sure to lose any of the best teams from the quarter finals. If Real Madrid and Manchester City had met in the final or the semi-final, the Champions League might have been much more attractive. I think the first leg and second leg of the quarter-final between Manchester City and Real Madrid will be more exciting than the Champions League final. Manchester City beat Real Madrid in the semi-finals last season, and whichever team loses to the other team in the quarter-finals this season will end their journey to the Champions League.

Well Inter Milan will definitely try harder and be more ambitious next season after they managed to lift the Serie A trophy this season and will be more excited for the upcoming UCL. Hopefully what happened to Napoli does not happen to Inter Milan. That is, like Napoli, which actually experienced a setback after winning the title in Serie A. But I am sure that Inter Milan will indeed be even better. Because I didn't hear their coach was going to leave them.

Inter Milan's early defeat also seems to have had an impact on their performance in Serie A. Because recently Inter Milan also couldn't beat Napoli and could only hold Napoli to a draw. I think the mentality of the Inter Milan players has still not improved after their defeat in the UCL.

Inter Milan over confidence on the last match against Atletico Madrid, although managed one goal on the first leg its can't help more when playing more defensive on second leg match before Atletico Madrid leading back over 2-1 and Inter loss trough penalty kick. Inter Milan must improving their performance next season on Champion League will adopt new format and seems not easily for qualifying to the next round depend on teams opponent have to face.
Need recovery the mentality winning after eliminating in Champion League is not easily for accepting, Inter Milan will recovery for the next match and they want to get close for winning Scudetto after failure to defend their last season achieved success manage to final round before defeating by Manchester City.

Actually, there are 3 favorite teams to win the UCL trophy. We have Bayern Munich besides Man City and Real Madrid. We don't forget that Bayern Munich is also a strong team and they often has a good history in UCL. It is very unfortunate that among these teams, 2 of them must fight in the current round. People expect that those 3 teams will be in the semi-final round at least.

Bayern Munich, this season is completely in shambles. I don't even think they will go past Arsenal if the form turns up on a good day. Real Madrid has to tussle it out with Manchester City, whoever wins in that match is most likely reaching the final and probably winning this year's title.

I agree with you that whoever wins in that match can end up winning the UEFA Champions League trophy this season. In the past two years in the UEFA Champions League, anyone who wins in Real Madrid vs Manchester City match always ends up winning the UEFA Champions League trophy that season. Let's wait and see if history will repeat itself.

Barcelona have the ability to win this match. In the last match against Atlético Madrid, the Barcelona players performed brilliantly. The team is in very good rhythm. On the other hand, PSG's performance is still completely dependent on Mbappe. If Mbappe plays well PSG has a chance to win, and if Mbappe doesn't perform well PSG has a very low chance of winning against Barcelona.

he certainly has the skills to win the match without problems, without a doubt
but it doesn`t seem as solid to me as it wants to appear, on the contrary
there is a lot of turbulence internally in my opinion and a team that is not in order internally cannot give its best
obviously this is a shame.. for me

In fact, PSG is not completely dependent on Mbappe. It's just that the best striker there is still held by Mbappe. And Mbappe's performance is also at his best at the moment. Even though his contract looks like it will end there, Mbappe seems to want to make happy memories at PSG. So he and his friends might even be ambitious enough to even beat Barcelona later. But on the one hand, I also see Barcelona starting to improve. The attack coordination shown by Barcelona in the match against Atletico Madrid was quite surprising because Barcelona seemed to have rediscovered their lost strength. But still, the quarter-final match between PSG and Barcelona is still quite difficult to predict. Because I feel that both of them have equal strength at the moment. Unless Barcelona can play with their maximum strength then Barcelona deserves to be the favorite.

Actually, both teams have good strength. Mbappe is an important trump card and I am sure they will use this trump card in the most correct way. For Enrique, Barcelona is a familiar team. He will analyze them well and find their shortcomings. Also, PSG's defense will have a lot of work to do in this match. They have to not give too many positions to Barcelona. I believe the French can pass the tour. Mbappe sometimes puts on a one-man show and helps the team rise to the next level. If such a day happens, it could be a terrible match for Barça.

Yes, it's true that both of them almost have an equal performance and the other teams that will compete in the UCL all have equal opponents so it's difficult to predict who will win this match, Barcelona's goal rate is improving and Lewandowski has found his rhythm again, as well as PSG who have their flagship striker and I'm sure Mbappè will definitely make things difficult for the Barcelona players because we all know what Mbappè's speed is like, I actually support Barca more in this round but if you look at the chances it seems 50/50.

If Barcelona are to win against PSG, they will need to keep their defense tight and stop Mbappe. Barcelona have no chance of winning if they can't stop Mbappe. PSG is a fairly stable team now. But even then, the team is most dependent on Mbappe to score goals. Barcelona will have a chance to control the match if they can resist Mbappe.

Lewandowski is in good form right now. Raphinha, Felix and Lewa can perform well and Barcelona have a chance to win against PSG. However, Barcelona's defenders must play well. If the defenders do not perform well, it is not possible to counter a team like PSG with only good performances from the attacking players.

From head to head statistics alone we can see how fragile Arsenal were at that time and it looks like this will not happen again with the current squad. The difference is clearly so big that Arsenal could make things difficult for Bayern Munich. Sometimes there are times when those statistics don't apply and I'm pretty sure Arsenal can be relied on.

believe it or not, even though Arsenal are currently having the luck to qualify for the quarter-finals, I still believe that Bayern Munich will progress to the next round.

I don't know why, but I also feel the same, seriously, I also think that Bayern Munich will continue to the next round.

now we are trying to say about what we are seeing right now and what I am going to say is not a prediction just an opinion or premature speculation.
okay, let's discuss it, currently Bayern Munich seems to be losing form, while Bayern Munich attack line is quite perfect with the presence of Kane and even though the defense is a little weak, the fact is that after Bayern Munich has experienced improvement, it is clear that the attack line is capable enough to dominate every match and that is meaning something is hidden behind Bayern Munich.
I mean, it looks like Bayern Munich after the arrival of the top scorer, Tuchel has a goal of going to a higher level to get a title in the UCL and has to save every ounce of energy and physicality of the players so as not to exert too much energy and avoid injury.
so Munich will look weak in the Bundesliga but in the UCL it is very clear that the more Bayern Munich qualifies for the higher rounds, the stronger Bayern Munich will be.

and something that I think about Munich being able to win the title in the UCL is that it is quite easy to get rid of Arsenal and Real Madrid or Man City, of course one of these two teams will fail to qualify for the semi finals and Bayern Munich will definitely qualify and be ready to win the title this season.

The difference is clearly so big that Arsenal could make things difficult for Bayern Munich. Sometimes there are times when those statistics don't apply and I'm pretty sure Arsenal can be relied on.

The statistical analysis of Gunners have made huge positive improvement and any opponents coming their path, they ensured they cleared them with brief history. Arsenal are formidable and strong this season, they're exceptionally having great time and Mikel Arteta will try his best to maintain the potential form of these players. Arsenal might be underperfoming in all these previous season but this one is different. Mikel Arteta, the players will definitely shoots huge shoot because they're so desperate to lift a title.

Mikel Arteta and his players did not start well this year, but later they managed to turn the situation around. Now the championship possibilities in the league and UCL continue. They are facing a tough team and they have to be better than ever to beat them. Even though Bayern may not look good this year, they are a team that will always continue to be good. Every match is dangerous and they can win every match. They will definitely put a lot of pressure on Arsenal

[redsun114]

Inter Milan over confidence on the last match against Atletico Madrid, although managed one goal on the first leg its can't help more when playing more defensive on second leg match before Atletico Madrid leading back over 2-1 and Inter loss trough penalty kick. Inter Milan must improving their performance next season on Champion League will adopt new format and seems not easily for qualifying to the next round depend on teams opponent have to face.
Need recovery the mentality winning after eliminating in Champion League is not easily for accepting, Inter Milan will recovery for the next match and they want to get close for winning Scudetto after failure to defend their last season achieved success manage to final round before defeating by Manchester City.

While two quality teams face each other things are never been easy to predict who is going to win I have feeling Atlético Madrid done good job and ended on draw against the Inter Milan in regular and extra time with winning on penalties were game of the luck but still Inter Milan were not as par they were needed in this game because they needed more aggressive for their approach to have another final, but things were not favourable so they lost this time cheaply and now have to stay only for the Scudetto which is already under their command with they are having huge difference of points from the second spotted AC Milan.

Now they needed to be more strong and confident for the next season because they can be over through this defeat and go for the better result with now we are going to have completely changed of system and teams needed more maturity and consistency for the win which could be not easy, but we can expect better performance from the Inter Milan which is one of the best in Italy and Europe.

The thing is Arsenal will have to think about both the Champions League and the English Premier League at the same time. But Bayern Munich is going to go all out on the champions League competition because that is the one competition they have some hope about. They are not winning the Bundesliga title. So they will try desperately to win the champions League title. That's why I think it is going to be tough for arsenal too to win against Bayern Munich in the champions League competition.

The busy schedule owned by Arsenal might be a weakness for them later, because after all, undergoing a tight match schedule certainly has the potential to reduce stamina and is also prone to causing player injuries, the only solution Arteta has at this time is of course to rotate players as best as possible, but the problem at the moment is that it is difficult for Arteta to rotate players by making Arsenal still have a good performance in those games, because if you look in the league when Arsenal play small teams, they also field their main squad and I think Arteta doesn't have a lot of confidence in the reserve squad he has at the moment.

Unlike the case with Munich who even now I don't think they care about the league championship, because after all the Champions League trophy is the only target they really have to get this season, and for sure that will be their main focus rather than having to think about the league that there is no longer hope for them, Bayern Munich's motivation and awakening in the Champions League as it is now should be wary of by Arsenal.

Yes, I also agree with you. Both Man City and Real Madrid are in top form. In a narrow lane, Real Madrid and Man City faced each other again for the fourth consecutive season in the Champions League. The rematch between Real Madrid and Man City in the quarterfinals of this year's Champions League promises to continue to be a tense match. Man City will continue to defeat Real Madrid this season.

Only then will they dominate this Europe. Regarding the current squad, Real Madrid cannot overwhelm Man City.

So you're basically saying without Mbappe Madrid is not winning the champion League? This is a funny stand because they have done it before without Mbappe so why do you think they can't win without Mbappe, when the Mbappe himself has not won it without Madrid?
Man City has a higher chance of winning but they'll win not because Madrid don't have Mbappe, they'll win because they were the better team. Madrid can also win Man City without Mbappe.

Also, Madrid having Mbappe doesn't mean they will definitely dominate. Madrid has had better players than Mbappe before and they have had better squads than they currently have and they did not dominate in those times. Football is not only about stars.
What if Mbappe comes and the team becomes disorganised? Football is a team sports and for a team to succeed, everybody has to do his job effectively.

Real Madrid is in good condition because they have perfect squad with all their mainstay players who have succeeded in enabling Real Madrid to achieve many wins in the previous few matches.
But on the other hand, Manchester City is also in very possible condition to beat Real Madrid because they have squad that really cannot be underestimated and Manchester City is really focusing on preparations for the quarter-final match later.
Hopefully, in the next almost 4 weeks before the match takes place, Manchester City will not have any problems that could harm them, such as players getting injured, because the first leg match is big opportunity for Manchester City to win by landslide.
Pep must be more careful in positioning his players for Premier League matches and he must be able to look after all the key players to avoid injury problems.

Real Madrid might be able to have additional performance with Mbappe but that will happen next season and this season they will only be the same as last season when they lost badly on the road to Manchester City.
I think the results of last season matches could happen again for this season quarter final.

sure. even when people are talking about Arsenal match and Bayern Munich, some people are still giving Bayern Munich high chance of winning Arsenal, which I don't think will happen because Arsenal are in their best form, and I didn't see any motivation in Bayern Munich squad that will give me that hope that they will win Arsenal. and if we look Arsenal previous matches, we will see that they win almost all the match so even their match against Bayern Munich I still have much hope for Arsenal in winning that match. although some people are still thinking that the same thing that what happen last season will repeat itself that was when Arsenal deform after topping the table, but I also think their performance is different this season.

[GiftedMAN]

So far we know that Arsenal always have nightmares when meeting Bayern and this season Arsenal also inevitably must meet Bayern again, to be honest I personally am a little worried about Arsenal's chances of going far in the Champions League this season, although Arsenal is now starting to look as a strong team in the league but for the Champions League it seems they have no change at all like the previous season,  Especially when we see if they are very difficult in beating Porto in the first and second legs of the round of 16, while Munich who are down in the league of course they have a stronger mentality when playing in the Champions League and that's why I say if it might be difficult for Arsenal to beat Bayern Munich, especially in the second leg later.
I personally would love to see Arsenal go far in the Champions League this season but am a bit pessimistic if Munich are their opponents.

I don't really optimistic with Arsenal's appearance in UEFA Champion League matches, looking how difficult for eliminating FC Porto on 16 of round. On quarter final, Bayern Munich is most difficult opponent team for Arsenal and become the nightmare teams always made Arsenal faced trouble when both team facing each other in Champion League match and Arsenal ever loss with bigger score aggregate against Bayern Munich.
Bayern Munich has Harry Kane know well with Premier League culture games and not much problem when facing Arsenal, he has experienced for beating Arsenal when playing with Tottenham Hotspur, I think Bayern Munich is favorite team will lead to semifinal stage than Arsenal have many crucial matches in domestic league.

The thing is Arsenal will have to think about both the Champions League and the English Premier League at the same time. But Bayern Munich is going to go all out on the champions League competition because that is the one competition they have some hope about. They are not winning the Bundesliga title. So they will try desperately to win the champions League title. That's why I think it is going to be tough for arsenal too to win against Bayern Munich in the champions League competition.

I think Arsenal and Bayern Munich are in the same situation right now despite the position of Arsenal in the EPL, Arsenal is fighting to stay ahead of Manchester City and Liverpool so they can win the league while they are also hoping to get ahead of Bayern Munich to be in the semi while Bayern Munich on the other hand is fighting to see if they can close the gap between them and league leaders Bayer Leverkusen which is currently ahead of them with 10 points, it may appear that all hope is lost for Bayern Munich in the league but they can't give up now until the season is over  who knows if Leverkusen will lose 4 matches in the last remaining games and Bayern Munich will catch up with them so they are in similar situations with Arsenal.

What if Mbappe comes and the team becomes disorganised? Football is a team sports and for a team to succeed, everybody has to do his job effectively.

Let's not get him wrong, Mbappe style of playing fits the real Madrid pattern of playing, having him at Real Madrid will give them the upper hand to victory not that with his absent they won't  perform very well already they have been dominating all these while.
The match between both teams will be a tough one and it won't end goaless, since both of them are quite good with their finishing, it is left for the defenders and Goalkeepers to stop from conceiving many goals.

I don't think that Bayern Leverkusen will lose any match, they can only drop points in a draw game. Leverkusen will prefer to maintain their unbeaten record this season, instead of giving it up. Leverkusen are already the league winners because they have started making the possible since the beginning of the season by notosing any match.

Bayern Munich should focus more on the Champions League than their domestic league, because it is in the champions league that there is hope for them. I will say that Arsenal is in a better position to win their domestic league than Bayern Munich.

Only then will they dominate this Europe. Regarding the current squad, Real Madrid cannot overwhelm Man City.

You act as though you are not talking about football, and you have complete faith in Manchester City because of their talented players. However, did you realise that Real Madrid also has talented players? If Real Madrid wants to play at a high level, they will defeat Manchester City. I don't think we should have too much faith in Manchester City to overcome Real Madrid. Take a look at their game against Liverpool. Did you think they were still capable of defeating a major league team this season? Even against Chelsea, Manchester City struggles to win, so there is nothing Manchester City can do to prevent Real Madrid from scoring goals during the match.

When Real Madrid lost to Manchester City in the previous season, it was because they could not play well even in the Liga. They had only won the Copa del Rey the year before, and if you compare their performance this season to that of last, is it comparable? With the addition of new players, Real Madrid has strengthened their squad. Their attacking and midfield players are currently in excellent form, so I fear that Real Madrid will defeat Manchester City. In fact, I believe that Real Madrid is looking forward to playing Manchester City.

Mate, Real Madrid have already dominated the Champions League so far.    They have a total of 14 championships achieved in this competition. Their success in the Champions League has become like an ecole.

Aside from that they won the title in the 2021/2022 season without having a player like Mbappe. Manchester City were still strong those times but Real Madrid still eliminated them in the semi finals. Maybe you will say Manchester City didn't have Haaland then. In that case I would like to remind you of another fact that Haaland didn't have much impact on his team's matches in the semi finals and final last season either.

By the way I can agree with you on a point. When Mbappe joins Real Madrid they will probably start playing at a much higher level.  

[Oluwa-btc]

I think Arsenal and Bayern Munich are in the same situation right now despite the position of Arsenal in the EPL, Arsenal is fighting to stay ahead of Manchester City and Liverpool so they can win the league while they are also hoping to get ahead of Bayern Munich to be in the semi while Bayern Munich on the other hand is fighting to see if they can close the gap between them and league leaders Bayer Leverkusen which is currently ahead of them with 10 points, it may appear that all hope is lost for Bayern Munich in the league but they can't give up now until the season is over  who knows if Leverkusen will lose 4 matches in the last remaining games and Bayern Munich will catch up with them so they are in similar situations with Arsenal.

They're not in no same situation, Gunner's are bottlers and even at the top of the Premier League, one would still have some levels of doubt about them possibilities of winning the Premier League Competition.

As for Bayern Munich, it'll be hell difficult for them to catch-up on Bayern Leverkusen. They're currently on another level and should not lose form even if they lose the next two games.
Rest assured it's gonna be the first trophy to be won by Xabi Alonso.

Arsenal though are still my favorites to win the Premier League Competition. I've also read how they want to sign Alexander Isaak from Newcastle United and I do think it's a great idea and better option than Victor Oshime for now

So you're basically saying without Mbappe Madrid is not winning the champion League? This is a funny stand because they have done it before without Mbappe so why do you think they can't win without Mbappe, when the Mbappe himself has not won it without Madrid?
Man City has a higher chance of winning but they'll win not because Madrid don't have Mbappe, they'll win because they were the better team. Madrid can also win Man City without Mbappe.

Also, Madrid having Mbappe doesn't mean they will definitely dominate. Madrid has had better players than Mbappe before and they have had better squads than they currently have and they did not dominate in those times. Football is not only about stars.
What if Mbappe comes and the team becomes disorganised? Football is a team sports and for a team to succeed, everybody has to do his job effectively.

You are right and I very much agree with your assessment from both parties regarding Madrid and Manchester City. Because this is not just about star players, the UCL will be a struggle for every strong team, no matter how ideal the squad is, if you lose, you lose. We can reflect on PSG last season which was filled with Messi, Mbappe and Neymar. But what are the results? they didn't bring home any UCL trophies. Therefore, this competition involves many things, quality players, team cohesion, stability in each line, even distribution of individual abilities and what is clear is the coach's tactics in breaking down the opponent's defense.

Mbappe in Madrid also needs to adjust, because now Ancelotti also needs to think hard about positioning, which must be able to rotate or try to force other positions. Mbappe arrival to Madrid depends on Ancelotti's decision in placing the right position and mutual benefit with his fellow striker, in this case Vinicius.

Yes, I also agree with you. Both Man City and Real Madrid are in top form. In a narrow lane, Real Madrid and Man City faced each other again for the fourth consecutive season in the Champions League. The rematch between Real Madrid and Man City in the quarterfinals of this year's Champions League promises to continue to be a tense match. Man City will continue to defeat Real Madrid this season. In terms of player quality, Man City is still better. Although the talents of the two coaches are equal. Real Madrid can only be firm when they get the final piece of the puzzle, Kylian Mbappé. Only then will they dominate this Europe. Regarding the current squad, Real Madrid cannot overwhelm Man City.

I see Man City is not as good as last season and is ranked 3rd in the EPL League after Arsenal from Liverpool, why is Man City ranked 3rd if they are so great this season to beat Real Madrid? Real lost its goalkeeper and 2 starting CBs all season. Vini missed 6 games, Tchouameni and Camavinga were each out for 6 to 8 weeks. Ceballos absent 8 weeks Mendy absent 4 weeks Dani absent 4 or 5 matches still top of the standings, but they were able to win the Spanish Super Copa and are now still firmly in first place in Laliga. So my prediction is that Real Madrid will beat Man City this season, because their strength is the same as last season.

It's just that Real Madrid's weakest point is on the front line, where Vini and Rodrygo don't know how to position themselves with Jude Bellingham. This is detrimental to the midfield players because they don't know what the front line will do to score goals. Vini and Rodrygo would have done the same thing in a different situation, just running from the sidelines. However, if they dare to be in the penalty box and initiate a 1-2 combination. Don't hold the ball for too long. Finding space, running, passing, adjusting, shooting. Then victory for Real Madrid will be easy to obtain.
