UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[masulum]

In the first leg of the UEFA Champions League quarter final game between Paris Saint Germaine and Barcelona, the Spanish champions were able to silence Kylian Mbappe from making any positive impact in the game and that was why I think they left Parc des Princes with a win last week but for a player that's fast and skillful like Kylian Mbappe, I think stoping him again at Camp Nou will be very difficult.  -snip

This kind of thingsituation was previously happen in the past when AC Milan vs Man. United. Through Gattuso, Maldini and Nesta Milan was able to stop CR7 in the UCL and give AC Milan victory. Currently, PSG really needs Mbappe, which is a strength and a weakness at the same time. If PSG opposing players marked Mbappe, then the chances of winning are smaller. However, Barcelona players must be careful, winning by 1 aggregate goal, this is not safe enough. And this will be a tough match for Barcelona. PSG will playing as hosts in the 2^nd leg, more power come from their supporters.

PSG are not matured after many seasons and they were beaten at their home stadium in the first leg. This is not a good result for a host in Champions League and PSG will play a second match with disadvantages, a home away stadium and a first defeat. They will have to beat Barcelona at Nou Camp stadium to at least equalize an aggregated result before thinking more. With performance of PSG in a first match days ago, they will have big challenge to complete. Xavi and Barcelona will not easily let PSG to get a winning at Nou Camp.

If PSG opposing players marked Mbappe, then the chances of winning are smaller. However, Barcelona players must be careful, winning by 1 aggregate goal, this is not safe enough. And this will be a tough match for Barcelona. PSG will playing as hosts in the 2^nd leg, more power come from their supporters.

It is what happened in the first match when Mbappe was nearly useless in that match. PSG must be a strong team and can play well without Mbappe or in days Mbappe does not have good performances for them. Relying on a single player, either Mbappe or Messi, is not signal of a strong team that are ready to win big titles like Champions League.

Bayern has chances, you're right. Kane's home field matters. He knows Premier League better than anyone. He's designed to punish Arsenal; he has their number. His past supports it. When Kane is in the lineup, everything changes. Bayern will play differently to capitalize on that home crowd and Kane's deadly instinct. Don't ignore the first leg draw. That transforms Bayern's mindset. Bayern can smell blood in the water as Arsenal comes in with everything to lose away from home. Here, they may crank the screws tactically. This is far from over. I swear, Bayern has everything for a serious comeback. See if they have the grit to succeed

Harry Kane has been in the Premier League for quite a long time and certainly knows the ins and outs of matches in the Premier League and how to deal with them. Harry Kane has a lot of experience in Premier League which he will show to bring down his opponents and currently Harry Kane is an advantage for Bayern Munich because he knows when facing Arsenal What will we have to do later. It was proven when in the first leg Bayern Munich played well when they visited Arsenal's headquarters, Harry Kane himself was able to score 1 goal thanks to a penalty kick and Bayern Munich was able to achieve a draw so even though Bayern Munich's performance in the domestic league was less than optimal, when they were in Bayern Munich Champions League will use all its abilities to be able to compete to reach the final.

In my opinion, Bayern Munich can beat Arsenal if they look at their chances, especially in the second leg. Bayern Munich plays as the host club, so Bayern Munich will not let defeat happen at home. The only chance for Bayern Munich to get a trophy is in the Champions League. Bayern Munich has been eliminated in all competition in the title race if Bayern Munich also fails in the Champions League then Bayern Munich will not get a single title when they return to Germany.

PSG will playing as hosts in the 2^nd leg, more power come from their supporters.

No Barcelona will be playing as host in Camp Nuo, and they have all the fans to themselves. This is why I still it difficult for PSG to qualify to the semifinals. This is because the way Mbappe was macked, and he did not have any impact in the first leg match in France, is the same way he will be held down in Spain so that he will not be able to find the back of the net, because Xavi and the players knows that he is a dangerous player, and can perform magic at anytime.

This does not mean that Barcelona should underestimate PSG, because they are the strongest in their league, and they have some quality players in the club. So Barcelona should play the match as if they are the one losing, so that victory will be certain for them. Barcelona have more advantage than PSG for the qualification to the semifinals.

Hope you know the chances of Arsenal Winning the premier league this season has drop, they lost their last match, which am sure it’s going to affect the players, Arsenal will be playing at Bayern Munich home, which is a great advantage for Bayern Munich, and am sure Bayern Munich will do everything to win the match. The first mistake Arsenal made was playing draw when Bayern Munich visited them, Arsenal had the opportunity to win the match, but they wasted most of the chances which they had, and all what they could get in the match is a draw, i still believe that Bayern Munich will win the second leg of the match.

The defeat to Aston Villa certainly made the mentality of the Arsenal players down at this time, besides that the defeat made Arsenal one step backto be able to recruit the Premier League trophy and will certainly make them extend the record of failure to win trophies for more than 20 years, for now of course Arsenal must focus their attention on facing Bayern Munich, Because after all, Arsenal currently has a very difficult situation in the Champions League, the draw obtained by Arsenal in the first leg is of course very detrimental to them and will certainly make Arsenal have to work hard to be able to win in the second leg later.

I think in the first leg Arsenal will be able to get a win because they play at home, but instead they have to Admit the greatness of Bayern Munich at that time who were able to hold Arsenal to a draw, the second leg later, Bayern Munich will play at home and for sure they will be able to win over Arsenal, in my opinion, it will be easy for Bayern Munich to beat Arsenal if indeed Arsenal will play like against Aston Villa and maybe even Bayern Munich will make Arsenal suffer a big defeat in the second leg later if they repeat their game scheme when Aston Villa win.

[Baki202]

I think the defeat against Aston Villa won't make Arsenal players be confused. They will play more motivated because they assume to have a bigger chance in UCL.

if they like they should not get serious but the problem is Arsenal will continue to be Arsenal, no magic can happen that will make Arsenal win the Champions League they are more challenging clubs than Aston Villa and others. The Champions League is for men who have experience and see the way Arsenal was beaten. they will get there over time since Arsenal is finding it difficult to manage their self when last did they carry any trophy?

Hope you know the chances of Arsenal Winning the premier league this season has drop, they lost their last match, which am sure it’s going to affect the players, Arsenal will be playing at Bayern Munich home, which is a great advantage for Bayern Munich, and am sure Bayern Munich will do everything to win the match. The first mistake Arsenal made was playing draw when Bayern Munich visited them, Arsenal had the opportunity to win the match, but they wasted most of the chances which they had, and all what they could get in the match is a draw, i still believe that Bayern Munich will win the second leg of the match.

There was no chance for Arsenal even before Arsenal had zero chances of winning it when you see serious people that can win you don't need a magician to tell you look at Manchester City we are already topping the premier league so will are going to win the champions league. arsenal Bayern we know the result already, arsenal can not beat does guys and that is the reason you will know that they won't go far in the Champions League they play differently. even if Arsenal does not win they will advance than Arsenal. they are always qualifying but no result.

Thank you for the correction, sorry my bad. That's right, Barcelona hosted the 2nd leg. So I think this position is a better opportunity for Barcelona. Being the host and winning by 1 goal is certainly a good opportunity for Barcelona to maintain the win that they almost got. As long as they can stop Mbappe's movements, I'm sure, Barcelona can win this match. no, I don't underestimate PSG at all. but the main key for PSG is depend on Mbappe. This is an opportunity for Barcelona to find the weakness in PSG strategy, by stopping or limit Mbappe movement zone.

Of course, Barcelona still has to play with full concentration even though they are playing at home. However, PSG is not a weak team, one mistake from Barcelona mid line and defender, then PSG can score a goal. The more often Barcelona provides space for PSG players to determine their position, the more threat for Barcelona.

[Volgastallion]

P$G like one guy above said before me, is not a mature team and also after all those years they never has been a mature team, the develop of the team always crashed into the reality when they lose unbelieve matches in the Champions League , like the past season against Barcelona when they win in home by a big margin and after that they lose in the return game.

But for this game i dont know why i have some faith on them to beat Barcelona.

[Weawant]

There was no chance for Arsenal even before Arsenal had zero chances of winning it when you see serious people that can win you don't need a magician to tell you look at Manchester City we are already topping the premier league so will are going to win the champions league. arsenal Bayern we know the result already, arsenal can not beat does guys and that is the reason you will know that they won't go far in the Champions League they play differently. even if Arsenal does not win they will advance than Arsenal. they are always qualifying but no result.

Arsenal actually don't really have much experience in the champions league, been able to get to this point for me i see it as them having tried well enough and aswell because somehow they have been in their best form this season so they are literally getting this far because they have been able to sustain some kind of strength so far which isn't uncommon but getting beyond this point now will further prove if they where actually worthy of winning the trophy.

It's even possible Arsenal may end this season Winning no trophy again just like they did last season, at a point this season they were even at the top of the table with over three points such that we thought they will be able to sustain it well enough because they did enjoyed some form of winning streaks those period and they were having so much dominance in their games especially after they returned from their break. The even had five goals in a half in one of their games which was a record for the season in the premier league, making it ix would have even been a football history in a half.

The decline of Arsenal is actually resulting from their inconsistent performance and i doubt bif Bayern is a matching contender especially as they will be playing from home, the best Arsenal may be able to get from that game may be a draw of which i don't think it will still do them much good because thats not all they will be needing to win the trophy this season or even getting to the next stage of the champions league.

[Slow death]

I don’t know about what Bayern deserves - they have been unsuccessful all season and at the moment they have the same number of points as Stuttgart (which last season risked leaving the Bundesliga). Bookmakers quote Bayern much worse than they quoted Arsenal in the home game, Bayern have odds of 2.40 for the upcoming game and Arsenal have odds of 2.82. In fact, these are equal chances with a slight formal advantage for the hosts.

Bayern is a disappointment this season and betting on Bayern is the same as asking to lose money, but Bayern were very lucky that their opponent at this stage was Arsenal, which is a real disaster worse than Bayern in my opinion. I say this because in the case of Arsenal, in recent times they always play well from the beginning of the season until close to the end of the season. but when there are 10 games left until the end of the season then the arsenal becomes a huge disaster, and this disappoints its fans in the premier league. But Arsenal can be worse than that, in the European Champions League they didn't even manage to beat Porto comfortably. So looking at Arsenal's performance in the European Champions League, I would say that they only reached this stage because they were lucky to play against weak teams, such as Sevilla, Lens, PSV and Porto who are not doing well this season. Bayern has been a team that even when they are poor in the Bundesliga, in the Champions League at least they have been good, that's why I see Bayern winning this game, they play well when they are with Kingsley Coman

In the first leg of the UEFA Champions League quarter final game between Paris Saint Germaine and Barcelona, the Spanish champions were able to silence Kylian Mbappe from making any positive impact in the game and that was why I think they left Parc des Princes with a win last week but for a player that's fast and skillful like Kylian Mbappe, I think stoping him again at Camp Nou will be very difficult.  -snip

However, Barcelona players must be careful, winning by 1 aggregate goal, this is not safe enough. And this will be a tough match for Barcelona. PSG will playing as hosts in the 2^nd leg, more power come from their supporters.

No Barcelona will be playing as host in Camp Nuo, and they have all the fans to themselves. This is why I still it difficult for PSG to qualify to the semifinals.

Barcelona is a team that has had good results when they play at home, they have had good defense in the last few games and in the first leg game against PSG it seemed to me that the goals that Barcelona conceded could have been avoided, they were defensive errors that if Barcelona If they managed to improve, then they could have a chance of winning in that game, because Barcelona have been a team with attacking problems, I was even surprised by the fact that they managed to score 3 goals in that one against PSG. but in the second leg PSG can win. It's the type of game that is very unpredictable and I don't like to bet on

[imamusma]

Harry Kane has been in the Premier League for quite a long time and certainly knows the ins and outs of matches in the Premier League and how to deal with them. Harry Kane has a lot of experience in Premier League which he will show to bring down his opponents and currently Harry Kane is an advantage for Bayern Munich because he knows when facing Arsenal What will we have to do later. It was proven when in the first leg Bayern Munich played well when they visited Arsenal's headquarters, Harry Kane himself was able to score 1 goal thanks to a penalty kick and Bayern Munich was able to achieve a draw so even though Bayern Munich's performance in the domestic league was less than optimal, when they were in Bayern Munich Champions League will use all its abilities to be able to compete to reach the final.

In my opinion, Bayern Munich can beat Arsenal if they look at their chances, especially in the second leg. Bayern Munich plays as the host club, so Bayern Munich will not let defeat happen at home. The only chance for Bayern Munich to get a trophy is in the Champions League. Bayern Munich has been eliminated in all competition in the title race if Bayern Munich also fails in the Champions League then Bayern Munich will not get a single title when they return to Germany.

Bayern Munich also has Tuchel who is experienced in facing Arsenal. We know that Tuchel has previously coached one of the elite Premier League teams, namely Chelsea. Tuchel and Harry Kane understand well the strengths of a team like Arsenal, so this can help them beat Arteta squad at the Allianz Arena. That is an advantage that Bayern Munich has, acting as hosts and having Tuchel and Harry Kane by their side.

Arsenal are certainly no longer favorites like in the first leg, where in my opinion Arsenal chances are now considered very low. Bayern Munich is trying as hard as possible to advance to the semifinals, we know that they have lost their dominance in the Bundesliga. Overall their focus will be shifted to the Champions League, Bayern Munich will target to win this trophy this season, if they fail then they will end the season empty handed without any trophy.

[wakier]

Arsenal just dropped form,and their performance against Bayern last week and also their performance against Aston Villa yesterday showed it all that their form has dropped.The most annoying part of it is that they dropped this form when they have gotten to the climax of the season,when they should have tried everything possible to to still maintain a good form and solidity.With what I saw yesterday against Villa,I am pretty sure that Bayern will flog them at Allianz Arena on Wednesday night.

Indeed Arsenal's performance was quite disappointing when they reached the climax when they should have played well until the end, since last season Arsenal have been like this they were not very consistent when they reached the end of the season they made mistakes which led to defeat I think we will experience disappointment again where Arsenal return failed to win the EPL trophy and it looks like they will also be beaten by Munich in the last 8. I don't see Arsenal being able to beat Munich who have a lot of experience in the Bundesliga.

[Sexylizzy2813]

Arsenal will be visiting their long time nightmare in the return leg of the champions league on Wednesday and with a 0-2 loss to Aston Villa I don't think the Gunners would be thinking straight in that encounter against Bayern who have been very poor since the beginning of the season.
Bayern would have gotten the advantage in this tie but the Gunners escaped the penalty that was caused by Gabriel, when Raya passed the ball to him after the whistle and he picked up the ball to restart play but the ref over looked the error from the CB, I'd say the Arsenal side got lucky.
If Arsenal are not careful I feel they're going to console Bayern Munich with something to give them the lead in the return leg and if Arsenal don't respond immediately they're going to fall out in that encounter.
Both teams are going into that game like wounded lions, the chances of Arsenal winning this game is very low, that Aston Villa game would still be hitting them bad because they just handed Manchester City another title for the second time. Well, let's see how refreshed the Gunners would be by Wednesday.

Actually this is only about the experience and success of Xavi giving a strategy to the Barcelona players to complicate mbappe and succeed in the 1st leg match Mbappe failed to score in the match at that time because the Barca defense player tried to focus on the movement of Mbappe and continued to provide obstacles for difficulty scoring..
Barcelona can be sure to qualify for the semi -finals in the second leg match because mentally PSG will experience a decline and confidence PSG makes it difficult for PSG players to focus on competing optimally.
I had heard before that Barca would continue to try as hard as possible to be able to qualify for the final round by using strategies such as giving difficulties to the opposing striker like that time against Napoli who rely on Osimhen but also could not score and it was all the strategies used by Xavi when this.

All of that was done because Xavi realized the lack of players became an alternative obstacle and way to continue to try until the final round was only by using various strategies and strategies used today always succeeded in providing satisfactory results.

I do agree that Barcelona has a bigger advantage, because it would be home game for them as well, they managed to get a win at away game and that is why I believe that we should probably consider the situation to be sensitive.

I believe that we are going to end up with Barcelona going to semi finals unless something major happens. Even Mbappe can't make PSG win all by himself, of course if Barcelona plays horrible then we could see some changes, but I believe that they are not going to be that bad, I believe that they are going to be decent and we should consider them to be doing a lot better. This is just a guess and I believe that betting on Barcelona could be profitable, that is what all the possibilities shows right now.

Indeed Arsenal's performance was quite disappointing when they reached the climax when they should have played well until the end, since last season Arsenal have been like this they were not very consistent when they reached the end of the season they made mistakes which led to defeat I think we will experience disappointment again where Arsenal return failed to win the EPL trophy and it looks like they will also be beaten by Munich in the last 8. I don't see Arsenal being able to beat Munich who have a lot of experience in the Bundesliga.

This will be quite an interesting match for both of them, but if Arsenal still experiences something like that at the end of this season, of course there won't be any significant changes for Arsenal because Arsenal were like that last season. But for the next match in the second leg of the Champions League, Arsenal will definitely try their best not to lose, although I am also more confident that Bayern Munich will use the second leg opportunity to qualify for the next round of the Champions League this season.

It's actually true that the return leg between arsenal vs Bayern Munich will definitely going to be a fascinating encounter, but  their is a very big cloud of doubt around this arsenal side, because they have that tendency of losing form when it really matters, just look at their past few matches, they have been struggling, and they were unable to win a Bayern Munich side that is out of form through out this season, which is really bad.

So I really do think Bayern Munich is going to beat them and progress to the next stage of the competition, because they are actually an experience side, and in the champions league, experience is one vital component a team need in order to be successful in the tournament, and that is were arsenal are really lacking, though it's still an open game, but as for me, I think that Bayern Munich is more in a good place to progress to the next stage of the competition.

I think the defeat against Aston Villa won't make Arsenal players be confused. They will play more motivated because they assume to have a bigger chance in UCL.

Hope you know the chances of Arsenal Winning the premier league this season has drop, they lost their last match, which am sure it’s going to affect the players, Arsenal will be playing at Bayern Munich home, which is a great advantage for Bayern Munich, and am sure Bayern Munich will do everything to win the match. The first mistake Arsenal made was playing draw when Bayern Munich visited them, Arsenal had the opportunity to win the match, but they wasted most of the chances which they had, and all what they could get in the match is a draw, i still believe that Bayern Munich will win the second leg of the match.

Don't conclude so quick, anything can still happen that will make Manchester city to loss in their next game to drop down points too because errors can occur to any team, which is what happened to Arsenal but their position in the premier league is not too bad yet.

 I have that confident that Arsenal will make the game to end for their favour to beat Bayern Munich to qualify for semi-final in this second leg, and to prepare ahead of other games because they still have that opportunity to lift this UEFA champions league trophy.

 If you want to bet for the second leg, just bet for the favor of Arsenal to win from your bet because Arsenal will beat Bayern Munich 2:3 for the favour of Arsenal.

Here's win probability for the upcoming match of barcelona in UCL.



Several factors that support barcelona to win the game

- Aggregate
- Capable players (I remind you mbappe did nothing when he was one on one against cubarsi)
- Home game

Odds

Barcelona @2.23
PSG @3.00

It's obvious that i will pick barcelona in this game consider all of factors are supporting barcelona to take three points from its opponent.
These factors are enough in helping barcelona to repeat the same result like the first leg. Im not expecting barcelona to win the gam easily but there may be a dramatic match between PSG vs barcelona.

I believe that we are going to end up with Barcelona going to semi finals unless something major happens. Even Mbappe can't make PSG win all by himself, of course if Barcelona plays horrible then we could see some changes, but I believe that they are not going to be that bad, I believe that they are going to be decent and we should consider them to be doing a lot better. This is just a guess and I believe that betting on Barcelona could be profitable, that is what all the possibilities shows right now.

PSG can only rely upon their miracle to get into the semi final of UCL. Winning home game against barcelona is something amazing to be done by PSG at camp nou. Barcelona is still reaching its peak performance too. It makes sense if barcelona being favored to win the game rather than PSG.
PSG was unable winning home game against barcelona, how can team win it at camp nou?

Hope you know the chances of Arsenal Winning the premier league this season has drop, they lost their last match, which am sure it’s going to affect the players, Arsenal will be playing at Bayern Munich home, which is a great advantage for Bayern Munich, and am sure Bayern Munich will do everything to win the match. The first mistake Arsenal made was playing draw when Bayern Munich visited them, Arsenal had the opportunity to win the match, but they wasted most of the chances which they had, and all what they could get in the match is a draw, i still believe that Bayern Munich will win the second leg of the match.

I know it, I always follow the EPL matches. It is true that the chance of Arsenal to win the EPL title is decreasing now. Arsenal missed points at home when they were playing against Aston Villa. It was very unfortunate Arsenal was defeated by Aston Villa with 2 goals. They are now in 2nd place, Man City returned to the 1st place. However, I think the race for the title isn't over yet, the point gap with Man City is also very small (2 points). Arsenal still has a chance to overtakes Man City in the next few matches.

Regarding the match against Bayern Munich, Arsenal must have a high motivation now. They are almost in the final round, they must play all out to get a higher chance winning the match in Leg 2. Although Arsenal was just defeated in EPL, I think it won't bother their focus on UCL match. Arsenal has a great coach, he must know how to improve the mentality of the players. Arsenal has missed the chance in Leg 1, Arteta must remind all the players to not missing the chance in Leg 2 again if they still want to survive in UCL until the final.

If Barcelona have an attacking problem and still yet they were able to score three goals, it shows that PSG defense is weak for them to allow all three goals. I think that the attack is somehow strong for PSG defense, and that was why they were able to create chances and penetrated PSG defense.

Similar thing might happen in Spain because Barcelona will also find how easy it will be for them to overcome the game pattern of PSG and use that as an advantage to win the game. But nobody knows what will happen, if PSG will be able to surprise the world by winning in Spain.
