UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[Docnaster]

If there one thing I have learnt about everyone expecting a team to win a trophy is that the team doesn't actually end up winning it and I think the same case might happen with real Madrid because as it's stands now the whole wide world is expecting no team than Real Madrid to actually win this trophy and when everything plays we might be surprised to see that another lesser team might become champions

Probably it's a coincidence that has happened most of the time which has already made you believe that the favorite team in a football game is more likely to lose. Manchester City as we all know was the bookmakers favorite team to win their quarter final match against Real Madrid but surprisingly, Carlo Ancelotti's men were able to eliminate Manchester City and progress to the semi finals.
Now, you're coming with the idea that since Real Madrid who were the underdogs in their quarter finals tie against Manchester City were able to reach the semi finals, Bayern Munich who is the current under dogs in their semi final tie against Real Madrid will reach the final at the expense of Real Madrid. I'm a Real Madrid fan and considering how well the team has played this season, I'm very optimistic they'll make it to the final

Who thought Real Madrid will win against Manchester City this year, taking the historical records at Etihad Stadium where they never managed to win until this year, my point is we can’t relay on previous matches and records to determine the future result. The same as Bundesliga after Bayern Munich winning 11 times in a row, until this season where Bayern Leverkusen could take it from the with Xavi also’s lead.

Your point is clear and this explains why they say nothing lasts forever, Bundesliga now have a new king, Bayern Leverkusen after defeating the defending champion and back to back winner of the league for eleven years, it is an historical moment that can never be forgotten in their history and comes with much joy of been their first ever Bundesliga title since the creation of the club more than 100 years ago. Xabi Alonso have now created a some fear in other teams on Bayern Leverkusen’s triumph this year.  We await to see what Bayern Munich will play in the champions league after their qualification for the semifinals of the competition.

We are expecting a very entertaining matches in these Semi Finals matches, however the most close teams to be in Finals are Real Madrid and PSG when we compare their performance against other teams and how they managed to qualify.

For Real Madrid and Bayern Munich’s match, it is very clear that Real Madrid has the best chance to win this game because of their performance this season, they’ve farewell in La Liga and also in Champions League. Bayern Munich only did their best here and not in league games which shows that Real Madrid has the better odds of winning than Bayern Munich winning it. For PSG and Dortmund, PSG looks stronger but Dortmund will give them a tough time even if they’ll be the ones to qualify for the final.

Carlo Ancelotti is the master planner for Los Blancos success in the La Liga and also the UEFA Champions League. They've explored their chances of winning the major titles and also becoming one of the very best team in the European world of football, they're the best when it comes to winning titles and major ones for that. Real Madrid was formidable and ready to absorbed all the pressure coming in from Manchester City at Etihad stadium. Pep Guardiola have been a wonderful coach and will always strive for the very best.

What happens is that the speculation is very much in favor of Real Madrid because they took out one of the strongest teams in the world like City, and it is one of the things that we are always going to focus on, in the event that they City had beaten Madrid, well the favorite would have been City, but why? because City is almost in first place in the PL, they have a great coach like Pep Guardiola, they also have high-level players, with great football that they have shown, they are defending champions who can no longer think. win at least this season, so in view of these things that's why the favoritism, but in football anything can happen, as you say Madrid can lose against Bayern, and that is something we have to think very carefully, because Bayern is a great team, that is why the majority focuses on saying that Madrid can be champion.

It's about minor actions or events during a game that can have tremendous impact on the outcome in the Champions League. The fact alone that the games ended in a penalty shootout shows that these matches depend on so many small aspects and luck in the end.

But I believe that the game Bayern vs. Real Madrid will be more exciting to watch. Manchester City vs. Real Madrid was extremely one-sided, but Real Madrid had more luck and scored the goal while Manchester City missed a lot of big chances that they should have usually scored.

Manchester City is more about the ball possession game whereas both Real Madrid and Bayern have very fast players and love to play counter attacks. I hope for a highly dynamic back and forth and not so much defending from only one team like we have seen against City.

For PSG and Dortmund, PSG looks stronger but Dortmund will give them a tough time even if they’ll be the ones to qualify for the final.

In the European Champions League looking at the performance of each team in their leagues is a mistake, just look at Dortmundo's situation in the Bundesliga for example:



they are in position 5, they have no chance of winning the Bundesliga because Leverkusen are already champions, there is a high risk of not getting a place in the European Champions League for the next season, and even so with this very poor performance they managed to get far in the league of European champions, remembering that they will play against PSG who are close to being champions of the league1 and also remembering that PSG was in the same group as Dortmund, in which in the first leg game PSG won, but in the second leg game there was a draw and when they played against Dortmund, it was at a time when Dortmund was worse than it is now. In other words, there is a chance for Dortmund to beat PSG even though Dortmund is weak in the Bundesliga

Bayern is in the same situation in the Bundesliga:



They have no chance of becoming champions because Leverkusen are already champions, they were a disaster in the Bundesliga, but in the European Champions League they did well enough to go far. It's true that when you look at the history of clashes involving these two teams, we have a big advantage for Real Madrid, from what I can see on this site:

https://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsleague/history/h2h/50051/50037/

in the last 7 games in which bayern played against real madrid, they only managed a draw, real madrid won in 6 games. But Bayern can still surprise

Acelotti is actually doing a great job with los Blanco's this season as they are attempting a trio which they have not achieved in a very long time in the three leagues where in they are hoping bro win the trophies, it's actually going to be a very fruitful season for ancelloti because he's been able to achieve quiet a whole lot from the season already as the certainty is there already for one of his league he supposed to win this season already.

Manchester city is one big breakthrough they had in the champions league because even me i had doubted that game about how possible it was going to be for Madrid to be able to win them so they get to qualify for the next stage of the league again this season and i considered the fact thst Manchester city were the defending champions and were going to do everything to be able to maintain their trophy as the champions from last season who are experienced and in their very good form too aswell of which they were even looking at winning two leagues again this season.

Madrid is most likely going bro win the champions league this season and that is definitely going to be one of their biggest achievement this season because they know how much it means to win the champions league even with the fact that they have won the league more than twice it's rather an advantage for them to be able to use it against this opponent in this game but the. Let's hope for the best for them.

[TelolettOm]

Real Madrid - Bayern Munich is like a final game on paper. However I can't say that Bayern Munich are in their best condition. They have just lost the Bundesliga title to Leverkusen. Morales must be quite down but they will need to look ahead. The Champions League is all what's left for them this season.

Real Madrid vs Man City was like the final match of UCL this season. Real Madrid won the match, Real Madrid should be the only favorite team to win the title now. With the current condition in Bayern Munich, I think Real Madrid won't be difficult to beat them. The strongest team (Man City) has been defeated by Real Madrid, in theory Real Madrid will be easier to defeat another team. Moreover, Bayern players are not in good mentality because of bad result in Bundesliga.

While Tuchel is leaving the team for certain I don't know how motivated the players will be. They had serious issues at eliminating Arsenal. Now we are talking about a Real Madrid which just eliminated Guardiola's Manchester City.

Tuchel has no motivation, the players have no motivation, too. Actually Bayern Munich is experiencing low motivation in winning the remaining matches. However, a surprise is not impossible. Who knows that Bayern can do the same way as they succeed eliminating Arsenal. But Real Madrid surely did a bigger achievement by eliminating Man City.

My opinion is that Real Madrid will advance to the finale thanks to Ancelotti's strategies again.  

All people must feel the same. Real Madrid has a better chance to play in the final match. Real Madrid is stronger, more experienced in UCL, and has a better condition. There is no reason that Real Madrid will be defeated by Bayern Munich.

Let's hope for the best for them.

Out of all the teams remaining in the competition Real Madrid have the higher advantage and odds to win this competition. The Real Madrid coach rested some of his major players because he expects maximum energy and big performance from his key players. Real Madrid coach has won this competition before and though cannot be blamed if the market decides to go the other way, they have the better chance than Bayern Munich where the coaches job is at stake.

I still don't dare say that Real Madrid will win the Champions League trophy this season because in the semifinals they still have to play against the strong team of Bayern Munich. However, if only Real Madrid could beat Bayern Munich and qualify for the final round, then I feel quite optimistic that Real Madrid will win the Champions League. Bayern Munich have indeed failed in the Bundesliga this season and their points tally is quite far behind Leverkusen, but if they are in the Champions League, Bayern Munich is still a strong team that can prey on any opponent. In this match, both Real Madrid and Bayern Munich have a fifty-fifty chance.

In the European Champions League looking at the performance of each team in their leagues is a mistake, just look at Dortmundo's situation in the Bundesliga for example:



they are in position 5, they have no chance of winning the Bundesliga because Leverkusen are already champions, there is a high risk of not getting a place in the European Champions League for the next season

With old rules of UEFA, Dortmund will not be able to join Champions League 2024 - 2025 if they don't complete a season in top four but with a new rule applied since a next season, a fifth position in Bundesliga will be enough for Dortmund and they are exactly at this position with good gap with a sixth club in Bundesliga.

It's not first time Champions League have a club to participate in semi final, final and even become a champion, when their position in domestic league is not too good, at position beyond top four. With new rules, Dortmund don't need to win Champions League to be eligible for its next season, a fifth position in Bundesliga will be enough for them.

[slapper]

Both teams have the same chance of qualifying for the final, only Real Madrid has an advantage because of its record. I expect something interesting in the semi-finals, but whoever gets through this stage is the team that is likely to be expected to win the title.

Who thought Real Madrid will win against Manchester City this year, taking the historical records at Etihad Stadium where they never managed to win until this year, my point is we can’t relay on previous matches and records to determine the future result. The same as Bundesliga after Bayern Munich winning 11 times in a row, until this season where Bayern Leverkusen could take it from the with Xavi also’s lead.

I hear you on that Real Madrid win. Totally nuts! It's the Champions League, though, this stuff happens!  These men are clutch in big games, especially under Ancelotti. Under pressure, they proved Europe values experience. Because Real Madrid is unstoppable, they're the champions of this competition. Yes, PSG has been on fire. You have to admire their consistency lately; they're a strong contender. Are PSG going to keep dominating or will they buckle under pressure?

Real Madrid is a most successful club in Champions League and it makes sense to think they will be a champion again, first by beating Bayern Munich in semi finals.

Though Real Madrid have good tradition and confidence in Champions League, they did not win all seasons there so this season can be another one, they will not become a champion. Bayern Munich are a third most successful club in Champions League, after Real Madrid and AC Milan and in this season, they have many star players. They are competitive enough to challenge and even beat Real Madrid in semi finals.

Real Madrid made new history this season where they were able to beat Manchester City at the Etihad stadium even though Real Madrid had never been able to beat Manchester City at home, but this season was an unforgettable season for Real Madrid because they were able to get rid of Manchester City in the quarter-finals and this made me We are sure that Real Madrid will win the Champions League title again and the possibility of facing one of the clubs that is not very balanced with Real Madrid's current performance, whether PSG or Dortmund will qualify for the final, we don't know because these two clubs also have the same chance, we also don't underestimate Dortmund in this semifinal because they can provide unexpected surprises.

What is certain is that the semifinals will present very interesting matches and of course very tense because each of them will perform at their best Bayern Munich will give all their strength in this crucial match and PSG will also do the same thing. PSG is just one step away from returning to the final after not reaching the top level in the Champions League for a long time. Dortmund will be a big pressure for PSG and Real Madrid will also be a big pressure for Bayern Munich, each will play under pressure.

Predictions that Real Madrid will win the Champions League could be wrong, just like when many predicted that Manchester City would go to the semi-finals to open up the opportunity to defend the title again, it turned out that Real Madrid made it to the semi-finals, as well as when they face Bayern Munich, a team from the Bundesliga. even they are not favorites in the first match, moreover in the second match, but Bayern Munich still cannot be underestimated and local failure is not an accurate reflection of what will happen in the Champions League.

For Bayern Munich the first match is crucial for them, winning with a goal margin of more than one goal will open up the opportunity to go to the finals but a draw or only winning with a one goal margin means their chances will be even tougher in the match at Real Madrid home. Harry Kane may be a guard target for Real Madrid defenders so Bayern must be able to maximize other players to score goals later, I favor Bayern in this match.

The teams that are left in the Champions League are all good teams performing very good, but as for the finals I know Real Madrid will surely get their. Among all the teams, to me i think Real Madrid deserves the championship of the league. Real Madrid has more experience in the Champions League and before now in previous season they have Always done well in performance. Real Madrid has better squad that can enable the team to reach final stage of the the competition. In Champions league after Manchester City is related as the best team, then followed by Real Madrid.

In the Champions League it is quite difficult to predict because there are many surprises that occur and in this semifinal round only strong teams remain who have beaten many other teams so they can be in the semifinals.
Bayern Munich is not a team that can be underestimated, Bayern Munich is one of Europe's top teams, regardless of their downturn in the Bundesliga, Bayern Munich's success in getting to the semifinals is enough to prove that they have strong enough strength.

In terms of percentages, I don't put Real Madrid too much as a favorite to beat Bayern Munich, I'm still quite sure that this match will be quite fierce because this is a match between two of Europe's top teams, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid.

Morales must be quite down but they will need to look ahead. The Champions League is all what's left for them this season.

Bayern was not at good condition at this moment but they can come with a big surprise for us. Just never try to underestimate your opponent even though it was so struggling in domestic league. Bayern has ever done this struggle on bundesliga but this club won UCL.
This is the same situation like what chelsea did. Real madrid has already learned a lot from the history of UCL. They will not try to use second tier squad against bayern munich.

While Tuchel is leaving the team for certain I don't know how motivated the players will be. They had serious issues at eliminating Arsenal. Now we are talking about a Real Madrid which just eliminated Guardiola's Manchester City.

Some players who hated him so much will be feeling so happy with it but let's see whether he will leave from munchen if tuchel will be successfully winning the UCL trophy this season. Bayern is still hunting the right coach to replace him but i think that club is also following the situation happened in the club
The club may not sack him if tuchel will able to give UCL trophy this season. He has experienced to play against real madrid when he was still on chelsea. He will be doing the same thing for second time.

My opinion is that Real Madrid will advance to the finale thanks to Ancelotti's strategies again. 

Let's see what kind of strategy will be used by tuchel. I think that madrid will use usual strategy like when it faced city in the previous game.
The only minor change that may possible to happen.

Look at Leverkusen: tremendous club, shocked everyone by taking down Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga. Xabi Alonso's a brilliant manager, brought those guys to elite levels. This shakes up the league, keeps things exciting. That's what we want, folks.

Now, Champions League, thats a whole different level. Real Madrid, they're looking unstoppable lately. Dominating La Liga, showing their class in Europe – they're the team to beat. But you can never discount PSG or Dortmund, always ready to pull off an upset. Thats the beauty of the Champions League, the best of the best going head-to-head. Win or lose, these are the matches fans live for.

[hd49728]

Bayern was not at good condition at this moment but they can come with a big surprise for us. Just never try to underestimate your opponent even though it was so struggling in domestic league. Bayern has ever done this struggle on bundesliga but this club won UCL.
This is the same situation like what chelsea did. Real madrid has already learned a lot from the history of UCL. They will not try to use second tier squad against bayern munich.

Real Madrid were considered as weaker than Manchester City and had less chance to win at Etihad stadium but we saw what happened. Now at semi finals, they are considered as stronger than Bayern Munich but I believe from their own experience, they know that each of two semi final matches will be very important and they must play well in both semi finals.

Bayern Munich will be at a similar position like Real Madrid in quarter finals with Manchester City. They are good and strong enough, ambitious enough to fight and beat Real Madrid.

Let's see what kind of strategy will be used by tuchel. I think that madrid will use usual strategy like when it faced city in the previous game.
The only minor change that may possible to happen.

Carlo Ancelotti is very experienced in Champions League and he knows what to do. He knows that Real Madrid will not automatically become a winner and know well about strength and challenge from Bayern Munich.

With his experience, he will wisely choose proper tactics for Real Madrid in two semi finals and don't hurry to knock Bayern Munich down since beginning of each match.

[len01]

Though Real Madrid have good tradition and confidence in Champions League, they did not win all seasons there so this season can be another one, they will not become a champion. Bayern Munich are a third most successful club in Champions League, after Real Madrid and AC Milan and in this season, they have many star players. They are competitive enough to challenge and even beat Real Madrid in semi finals.

even so, Bayern Munich also does not get any guarantees even though they have many star players, but on the other hand, Real Madrid also has experienced star players and does not provide any guarantees.
It's just that currently looking at the consistency of the two teams, Real Madrid is far superior to Real Madrid in terms of domestic league performance, even in the UCL, I see that Madrid is far superior, consistently more stable.
I'm not doubting Bayern Munich here but I'm just a little worried that Munich will just continue to perform poorly while this enters the semi finals and becomes the decider for the UCL title this season.
there are lots of problems being rumored at Bayern Munich at the moment and most of all, supporters doubt Tuchel as a coach.

I also see that Tuchel seems to have tried to improve Munich defense line which has recently been very weak and is conceding more often and this will be a big problem that will put pressure on Tuchel ahead of the semi final match.
