UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[Hewlet]

You actually right now doubt, real madrid are the clear favourite to win this one here, but you need to understand that this is football, no team is am alien, they are beatable, their major downfall would be if they think they can just roll away Bayern Munich easily as the media made it looks like, it's a champions league semi final, so it's will definitely going to be a very bad idea if Bayern Munich is underated, let's not forget that Bayern Munich is experience and also have the same rich history in the uefa champions league as real madrid, as a neutral fan that I am, I will definitely just go out and enjoy the game with a bottle of beer, because I know that it's will definitely going to be a fascinating encounter between them.

I am pretty sure that the coaches are doing what they can to remind the Real Madrid players about this reality, because even if they are the favorites, there is not a single team that can reach the semifinals just based on their good fortune, all the teams that are there, reached that stage because they deserve it, and even a moment of carelessness is all what Bayern Munich may need to surprise them and the rest of the world by getting a win when not many expected it.

I agree with you, luck is always there but it doesn't always come in every club match, of course every player has a hand in managing their game when facing tough opponents, at least give good resistance in every match then the result will never be  lie to the final result, at least Real Madrid and Bayern Munich deserve to be there because the mentality and play they make is the result of the hard work of the players, so it's no wonder these two clubs are always in the European competition in the Champions League Semi Final match every season  .

it's going to be a tough game for real Madrid firstly because they are the favourite side and lot's of people will root for them to win Bayern munich which will give Bayern that sort of underdog mentality that will help them in the game. It's a game that's going to be very difficult to predict and it would never be a clear win from iether of the teams. Whoever gets the first goal wouldn't necessarily win in the case and you should expect that kind of real Madrid vs man city game where we hard lots of goals coming in from both teams and you have a lot of energy being put out into the game that only resulted in real Madrid wining the match because they where just lucky on that day. It's going to be a bit of luck because both teams are exceptional and it would just be too bad for iether of the teams that has hard luck in terms of thier goal scoring ability.

Individually, Mbappe does have quite good qualities, but this is a team game, if the whole team is not able to produce good performance to carry out the strategy well then Mbappe cannot improve the team's performance alone.
It seems like it's too soon to talk about the final between Real Madrid and PSG because in my opinion these two semi-final matches will be fierce and there is no strong guarantee that Real Madrid and PSG will advance to the final, I don't underestimate Bayern and Dortmund.

England is where Mbappe can prove his mastery. Every week is war, physicality is off the charts. Pressure would break him or turn him into a diamond. That constant challenge against some of the world's toughest defenders is the recipe for a Ballon d'Or. Imagine him against Liverpool, Chelsea, and City. This move immortalises you
Real Madrid's relationship with Mbappe is deep. They've been interested since he was a kid, and the Bernabeu is magical, especially on Champions League nights. That stage and history are football's DNA. Real Madrid is a superclub where legends are made. Staying cements his legend, you know? Man, this is hard. Greatness comes in different ways on both pathways. The final decision is his. Glad I don't have to make that crazy choice

[rendravolt]

That's right, it's football and a surprise can happen in any match... But still, right now Real are probably the strongest of the other clubs playing in the semi-finals... Bayern have a lot of problems, but they are lucky to beat Arsenal... Especially since Real beat City only on penalties... But still I think Real will play in the final...

I agree with you about Real Madrid but sometimes every football observer or media often places Real Madrid at the bottom of the list in this competition. I don't know for sure why they are like that, but what is clear is that Real Madrid has always proven its winning mentality which is not shared by any club in the Champions League, so their chances of getting to the final or even winning this competition will still be great.

Beating Manchester City was the biggest stumbling block for Real Madrid and they managed to do it even though they had to go through a penalty shootout. Real Madrid realized that Manchester City's game was very dangerous if it had to be followed for 90 minutes, therefore they put pressure on Manchester City with a mental battle in the penalty round and it was proven that Manchester City, who rarely went through this round, were not strong enough to face the very tough mental situation.

No one doubts Mbappe's ability and he does have good skills, but without support from the midfielder it will be much more difficult for Mbappe to play well. Real Madrid has strong defenders and they are quite experienced in dealing with pressure in crucial matches. Mbappe also can't do much when the midfielder support or other wing attacks don't do extra work because Real Madrid will definitely try to stop Mbappe's movements when holding the ball.

It seems to me that you are a little in a hurry, discussing the confrontation between Mbappe and Real Madrid, as if PSG and Real Madrid had already met in the final. ) If this happens, then of course Mbappe will try very hard against Real, but remember how weak Mbappe looked in the first match against Barcelona, competent individual play and Mbappe could not show anything. By the way, the same thing happens with Haaland, when he is closely guarded, he cannot show as good a game.

You guys are talking about the future clash between Real Madrid and PSG. This is very possible. Will  Mbappe get acquainted with the club he is about to join? Do you believe that he will destroy Real Madrid as a gift? That also confirms that Mbappe is the final puzzle piece for Real Madrid.
I always appreciate Mbappe. He is a true copy of Cristiano Ronaldo. Big matches are always the place for him to prove that he is the best player today. Mbappe is not like Haaland; Haaland is always silent in important matches.

Ancelotti is a coach who has experience coaching Bayern Munich several years ago, on this match, IMO Ancelotti understands the rhythm of the Bayern Munich. In this first leg, I think Ancelotti tried to get a quick goal and maintain the win afterwards. Because, in the second leg, Madrid can play all out to ensure the winning and score more goals. Of course, this is a difficult match for Madrid, but I agree with you, the most difficult thing is Guardiola tactics and Man City.

There is no need to doubt Mbappe, we all know that this star player from France is very dangerous in his opponent's defensive area. In the match against Dortmund, Enrique will rely heavily on Mbappe apart from prioritizing teamwork to achieve maximum results.
IMO, even though from my point of view Paris Saint-Germain has not yet become a very solid team in this competition, they have a chance to advance to the final phase. Enrique's patterns and systems gradually began to develop, they even played quite competitively and aggressively. Well, let's see how PSG play their match when they visit Dortmund's headquarters at Signal Iduna Park.

Talking about the final match of this competition, we agree and in fact two of the 4 teams will be eliminated in the semifinal match. whether it's PSG or it could be Dortmund, it could also be Bayern Munich or even Real Madrid who have to step aside. So, we don't know the exact team that will qualify for the final phase of this competition. Every team competing in the Champions League semifinals will present their best version of the game.

WHAT? Really? How in the heck can Bayern Munich pay 2.47 and Real Madrid 2.75? is a super nonsense guys, for me that odds has 0 value in the bayern munich side.

In the Real MAdrid side can be a good one, 2.75 odds for backing a super team like Real Madrid seems really good, and also to put on some multibet.

There is no need to follow the odds when betting especially when the odds does not match with your own prediction. We also saw the quarter finals how things went the other way round the the matches. Personally, I give Real Madrid the winner of tomorrow's match against Bayern Munich in Allianz Arena. This is because Real Madrid does game performance does not depend on where they are playing, as they can put in their best performance whever they are either home or away.

I am betting for Real Madrid to win the match, because I see them more capable of winning it than Bayern Munich who played at home against Arsenal and struggled to win the match. They are not also in their best form and that will be a big challenge for the host team. I cannot wait to start watching the match by tomorrow.

That's right, it's football and a surprise can happen in any match... But still, right now Real are probably the strongest of the other clubs playing in the semi-finals... Bayern have a lot of problems, but they are lucky to beat Arsenal... Especially since Real beat City only on penalties... But still I think Real will play in the final...

This is something always considered and decide not to just jump into conclusion and be saying a team is definitely going to win because personally i believe in football anything can actually get to happen and sometimes these things are way beyond the control of the players, coach or even the fans but just uncertainties playing out as it should be, though going by the reputation of some teams, we can at some point be very sure of their abilities and what they are capable of doing.

Bayern Munich wasn't looking really fit but then to our surprise they have been able to come this far in the champions league a d now they have the possibility of been at the finals of which if it happens i wouldn't be too surprised because just like in the Europa , we saw the downfall of Liverpool who we never expected to actually get to loose to Atlanta but not only did they loose to Atlanta they aswell got eliminated from the league because they were not in their very good form enough and their result at that crucial time wasn't enough to get them to the next point of the league.

Real Madrid actually do look like a team that will definitely get to beat Bayern Munich but then it's very possible Bayern Munich can be very resistive and the game be eventually end in penalty in the second leg nd that will means the lucky team will get to proceed to the finals because penalty shoot out are usually game of luck and not the best team winning sometimes but Madrid may actually not allow in it get to that point tho.

Ancelotti experience in taking his squad through every challenge has been proven and there is no need to doubt it, his understanding of the character of each team from various leagues makes it easy for him to implement effective strategies as anticipation. Ancelotti is very familiar with Bayern Munich and the type of pressure they can cause, but considering that Real Madrid is much more consistent at the moment, of course Ancelotti will not worry too much. Real Madrid has eliminated its toughest opponent, Manchester City, and should beat Bayern Munich a little easier. Tuchel squad, with all the attributes they have, has the potential to trouble Ancelotti, but on paper I assume that Real Madrid will win the match. However, we certainly realize that surprises could happen, Bayern Munich could force Real Madrid to a draw or even beat them.

Snip.

One thing that Ancelotti needs to be careful of is that even though his team is very complete and many people consider Real Madrid to be the strongest candidate to win the Champions League trophy, they can still be beaten. Preparation is very important in maintaining the team's performance when facing crucial matches, Bayern Munich also has the same goals as Real Madrid and Ancelotti must consider this team as a threat for them to get to the final.

Bayern Munich condition this season is not as consistent as last season. Those who have just lost the Bundesliga trophy will certainly be more motivated to win this championship. This match will certainly be fierce and both teams will play very carefully because the slightest mistake can punish them. Bayern Munich has everything to beat Real Madrid, so Ancelotti must be able to organize a strategy so that Bayern Munich does not pose many threats in his team's defense area.

PSG - Dortmund is the other matchup in the semi finals. Dortmund have been continuing to impress everyone by doing a great work. They scored a lot of goals against Atletico Madrid in the rematch you know. We all know how solid Atletico Madrid are when it comes to defending normally. But even they couldn't prevent a 4-2 loss there. 

PSG had better not underestimate their opponent. I don't expect their job to be easy. They beat Dortmund in the group stage before but Dortmund look stronger than that now. PSG might not have been in this stage in the first place if Barcelona didn't have to play with 10 players in the rematch. PSG should improve their game because of that.

What odds did you expect/want to see? These are normal quotes for approximately equal teams and where the outsider plays at home, so for the inch the chances are slightly increased. Plus you have to take into account that this is the first game, so Real will not take any risks at all and would rather play safely, since they will have the opportunity to decide the outcome of the match at home. It's likely that even a draw looks like the best choice for a cash bet here.

Bayern Munich should be considered a threat by Real Madrid because this team is also a team that already has enough experience in the Champions League so being wary of a team like Bayern Munich is a very appropriate thing for Real Madrid to do. Moreover, if both of them have now reached the semifinals, then all the abilities in the team will definitely be used by Bayern Munich, so there is no understatement or anything like that for Real Madrid because the semifinals are quite an important match for each of them to win.

PSG might not have been in this stage in the first place if Barcelona didn't have to play with 10 players in the rematch. PSG should improve their game because of that.

The match against Dortmund will be a difficult match because indeed Dortmund is a fairly strong team, besides that the mentality and also the experience of both teams in the Champions League is of course quite balanced so I think both have the same chance to win the semi-final match later, for the first leg PSG should be able to aim for victory at home Dortmund in order to make them safe enough in the second leg later, But if we look at Dortmund's performance against Atletico in the quarterfinals, of course it is difficult for PSG to score at dortmund home , besides that it looks like Dortmund will focus on keeping Mbappe and Dembele tight in the match because then Dortmund can break every PSG attack.

We cannot make the group stage as a reference to favorite PSG can easily against Dortmund, Dortmund's game this season is quite improved in the Champions League even though they are in poor condition in the league, failure to reach a place in the top 4 of the Bundesliga certainly makes Dortmund's motivation even greater, because indeed the hope of playing in the Champions League next season for Dortmund at this time is only by winning the Champions League.

I think PSG will still be the favorite team but even so, I'm also not entirely sure PSG will be able to win easily. Because of course, Dortmund also really maximizes this semifinal match, even though Dortmund is not calculated to get the trophy, but at least Dortmund can still qualify for the final match . Because anyway, Dortmund are also likely to fail to finish in the top four in the Bundesliga standing and if that happens, then Dortmund only to get a Europa League ticket next season . With these considerations, it would be reasonable if Dortmund would really maximize this Champion League semifinal match against PSG.

This did not age well.  I am also pretty sure that there was no serious thinking involved in this prediction.  how did she think that Barcelona was actually going to go to the final of the Champions League competition?  this is just beyond me. 

All the predictions that the woman made were all wrong hahaha so easily she predicted the Champion League but in the end it did not become a correct conclusion.

I know before Manchester City fell a lot of media mentioned that Manchester City could qualify because this club was widely favored with great performance but with the buzz it has been silenced by Real Madrid after being defeated on penalties.

This is what we didn't expect including the Barcelona vs PSG match where PSG would not qualify, but things changed after a red card and that was a big advantage for PSG to survive in the champions league.

Yes, I agree with you if in fact any prediction from any media does not provide the right prediction and for me the predictions always differ from one media to another and the most accurate prediction decision is only the prediction of the surprise at the end of the match.
Even though we predict that any club, even the strongest club in the Champions League, will win the title this season, there is no guarantee unless there is a surprise that will provide that guarantee.
In any competition, it is difficult to predict because luck, like PSG, who managed to qualify after enduring pressure from Barca, finally luck was on PSG's side and this can happen to any club and we will even be very surprised if Dortmund wins the Champions League title.

Sometimes it doesn't make sense but we can't avoid surprises like this and people will only predict clubs that look strong at the moment but will give bad criticism when they fail to qualify for the next round.
Currently, Real Madrid and PSG are the favorites of most people out there, but we will never know what the final result will be. The most important thing is that if you are going to bet on each match, you have to be careful in choosing the right bet.

Bayern Munich should be considered a threat by Real Madrid because this team is also a team that already has enough experience in the Champions League so being wary of a team like Bayern Munich is a very appropriate thing for Real Madrid to do.

At this stage in the competition, any team could be a threat. We might have our favorites of which between these two teams (Bayern Munich vs Real Madrid), Real Madrid stands as that favorite but even then still, I think Bayern have got an eye for the title and they would be doing all within there best to get that. It’s what H. Kane wants, it’s why he joined up and that dream seems realizable now than it would have been when he joined up and with that, being a team player wouldn’t be much of an issue with him, even while he might seek individual excellence.

[beerlover]

Real Madrid have high odd of winning the Champions League than any other teams because Manchester City are the toughest team I fear the most and now they are out and I'm not sure Bayern Munich aren't good to that standard, so I think they are good to go with Bayern Munich and even in the final, any team that comes their way in the final will be gun down, be it Dortmund or PSG, Real Madrid has sealed this one in the bag.

Real Madrid are really at the top this season and they will be very dangerous when they enter the final. This season Bayern Munich is not in consistent performance so when they face Real Madrid it will be much different. Real Madrid's task is to beat Bayern Munich and if they manage to reach the final then I am sure Real Madrid will be a candidate to win. Even though in the final they will face PSG or Dortmund because in terms of experience and mentality Real Madrid is far superior to those two teams.

When it comes to UCL, there is something about Real Madrid that takes over, not every year, like for example last year City easily beat them, it was I think 4-1 or something, it was an incredibly easy game for City and then they ended up winning the title at the end as well. However, in most seasons when Real Madrid plays at UCL they just end up being the candidate.

Like I said, there are many seasons they do not win as well but they are always favourites to win, they always have a high chance to win, there isn't a single season in the last 10 years or so where Real wasn't considered high favourites, there could be one other team maybe and sometimes not even that. This is the team that won it three times in a row, how many other teams could say they done that? None at all.

For a club to win the UEFA Champions League trophy in 14 different editions, it shows how good of a side they're and can be whenever they're playing in the competition. Real Madrid is unarguably the most successful football club in the whole of Europe and they're not even planning on stopping to add more honours to themselves as the biggest European club. After Manchester City eliminated Real Madrid in the semi final of the competition last season, I knew Real Madrid are going to come back stronger which was why the club signed Jude Bellingham to help improve the quality of the club.
Real Madrid will face Bayern Munich in the semi finals of the UEFA Champions League this season and which the first leg will be played tomorrow and as a Real Madrid fan, I'm very optimistic that the Spanish giants are going to get all three points from the game
