UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season

[Barikui1]

Ahead of the second leg, Real Madrid got a breath of fresh air because they had succeeded in winning the domestic league and they only needed to focus on being able to get rid of Bayern Munich in the second leg. I think there is no reason for Real Madrid not to win and advance to the champions league final and that is a realistic target that they can achieve to get another trophy in this competition.

Bayern Munich will likely still be busy as they will be under a lot of pressure in playing the second leg at home to Real Madrid and on the other hand they will still try to finish in second place in the domestic league. Things will become complicated if Bayern Munich's targets disappear one by one this season and they will have to try harder if they want to turn things around against Real Madrid.

Actually, I don't think Bayern Munich will be able to match their match against Real Madrid, but I think Real Madrid will easily beat Bayern Munich. This shot, which was better controlled by Byern Munic, proved that they made things quite difficult for Real Madrid. But even so, I think Real Madrid can still win in the second leg. Even though the first leg ended in a draw, I don't think it will be easy for Bayern Munich to beat Real Madrid. considering that Real Madrid is a strong team, in fact Bayern Munich is also a strong team, it's just that recently Bayern Munich seems to be experiencing a decline in performance, but yesterday's draw in the first leg was quite impressive.

There is a possibility that Bayern Munich will have difficulty with the pressure that Real Madrid is putting on, also I think Real Madrid's performance is better than Bayern Munich, I don't underestimate Bayern Munich in this case either. in fact I think Real Madrid's chances of reaching the final are greater than Bayern Munich this season. also with the news that a Bayern Munich player is injured, of course this will be very beneficial for Real Madrid, and I think in the second leg match Real Madrid can win even though it may be a little difficult because they cannot underestimate Bayern Munich who are able to match their match. yesterday in the first leg.

It's no longer news that this Bayern Munich side have been suffering from injuries all through the season which has made them struggled, and their performance level declined massively, but in the first leg, they really surprised me, because I initially thought that real madrid is actually going to beat them easily, but that wasn't the case, so in this reverse fixture coming up, I am still expecting a very fierce game with a very high intensity because Bayern Munich is a very good team, and shouldn't be underestimated as most football fan are doing right now.

Lastly, I know that in this reverse fixture, real madrid will come out more attacking than they did in their first game, but they actually need to be wary with this Bayern Munich side, especially at the break, because they actually have the ability to put them to the sword on the counter, if they forget themselves while attacking, so in essence is that, the game is still very much open, any of the teams can progress to the finals, am not ruling anyone out, because in football, anything can happen.

Real Madrid is always the favorite to reach the Champions League final. The performance throughout this season and the morale aspect imply that Madrid is a better team than Bayern. Playing at home is also a big advantage for Real Madrid, and they have already secured the league title that can boost their morale to achieve more without splitting focus.

Real Madrid is also not having serious problem with injuries, while Bayern need to asses the readiness of their players who were absence in the first leg. History tells that both teams have ability to beat each others while Real Madrid have a better record in the more recent history. All this variable of probability can only serve a prediction, while anything can happen on the pitch.

Since phase group in UEFA Champion League matches, Real Madrid never loss than Bayern Munich got defeated by Lazio on first leg round 16 of round and success come back on second leg. I think Madrid has bigger opportunity to reach final round in this season behind consistency performance in domestic league and Champion League. Kick out Manchester City in quarter final round is the best achievement for Real Madrid and likely the winner usually come from teams who eliminated the defending champion.

Last match in domestic league, Carlo Ancelotti make many rotation by saving Rudiger, Ferland Mendy, Toni Kroos and most of regular players for saving them against Bayern Munich second leg match. Carlo Ancelotti postponed the celebration of La Liga champions after becoming the winner last week to make his team forcus for important second leg match. I see Bayern Munich on difficult position exactly the defeated in domestic league last match as bad capital for facing Madrid on more confidence after winning La Liga tittle.

When it became obvious that Real Madrid is going to play against Bayern Munich in the semi finals of the UEFA Champions League competition, many people including bookmakers were backing the Spanish giants to eliminate their German counterparts. In the first leg of the tie that was played at Allianz Arena last week, Real Madrid were able to get a draw but will now play host to the former German Bundesliga champions on Wednesday night for the last game of the tie.

Real Madrid players are in a happy mood after successfully securing the La Liga title, of course their joy will increase if they succeed in qualifying for the Final. It is very realistic, in my opinion, many parties support Real Madrid to qualify for the final, there are many factors that make Real Madrid the superior team in this game.

Bayern Munich are not in their best form heading into this match, they have just been beaten by Stuttgart in the Bundesliga. Real Madrid does not have the slightest pressure ahead of this match. Ancelotti can field his best squad and Real Madrid players are very ready for this important match because several key players got more rest hours after Ancelotti did not play them when Real Madrid played against Cadiz.

Playing at the Santiago Bernabeu will also provide added energy for Real Madrid players, especially since they have not been defeated when playing in front of their supporters. Bayern Munich's struggle was very difficult at the Bernabeu after failing to win in the first leg, the results of their last match also signaled that they would soon be eliminated from the UCL.

Ahead of the second leg, Real Madrid got a breath of fresh air because they had succeeded in winning the domestic league and they only needed to focus on being able to get rid of Bayern Munich in the second leg. I think there is no reason for Real Madrid not to win and advance to the champions league final and that is a realistic target that they can achieve to get another trophy in this competition.

It's gonna be a tough game for real madrid. The club must able to perform better compared to the first leg against bayern in order to reach the final. Bayern munich will be surely using everything they have to get into the final. It's a big deal for bayern munich in order to get a very good momentum.
This is the. time for bayern munich to gamble everything they have in the second leg of UCL at santiago bernabeu. Being able to win against bayern munich will be surely telling me that if madrid is gonna win the competition.
Bayern munich is still performing very well this season in UCL even though it was so struggle in bundesliga caused by it has no good performance compared to the leverkusen.

Bayern Munich will likely still be busy as they will be under a lot of pressure in playing the second leg at home to Real Madrid and on the other hand they will still try to finish in second place in the domestic league. Things will become complicated if Bayern Munich's targets disappear one by one this season and they will have to try harder if they want to turn things around against Real Madrid.

So true. That's tuchel's job in order to reduce the pressure from real madrid when it will be playing at santiago bernabeu. Tuchel must be making a proper preparation in order for the club will able to beat madrid at away game.
Away game is obviously giving a very big pressure to the performance from the club.

Real Madrid players are in a happy mood after successfully securing the La Liga title, of course their joy will increase if they succeed in qualifying for the Final. It is very realistic, in my opinion, many parties support Real Madrid to qualify for the final, there are many factors that make Real Madrid the superior team in this game.

Real Madrid did not actually have big pressure to play in La Liga recent matches because they had good differences against Barcelona and Girona. By officially winning La Liga, from now Real Madrid will entirely focus on Champions League. They need to beat Bayern Munich at Bernabeu and only need to win one more match, final match, to win another Champions League.

Bayern Munich are not in their best form heading into this match, they have just been beaten by Stuttgart in the Bundesliga. Real Madrid does not have the slightest pressure ahead of this match. Ancelotti can field his best squad and Real Madrid players are very ready for this important match because several key players got more rest hours after Ancelotti did not play them when Real Madrid played against Cadiz.

Bayern Munich have many experienced and star players who did played many important matches, tournaments in their career and they will be able to control themselves well against pressure of Real Madrid and fans at Bernabeu stadium. It's never easy to play at Bernabeu stadium but Bayern Munich won't be easily beaten or collapsed there.

There are many players in Bayern Munich want to win Champions League, a first one in their career like Harry Kane who will be one of most dangerous attacking players against Real Madrid's defense system.

[slapper]

Real Madrid have good advantage on that day because they are playing at home, and they will be motivated by their fans, while Bayern might be intimidated by their host fans. Bayern Munich should not be estimated, and I know that Ancelotti will never do that. Bayern can still perform very well away from home, who knows if the match might end in a penalty shootout.

However, from the recent performance of Real Madrid, I don't think that a draw will be their aim but winning the match will be their target, and Ancelotti knows the kind of strategy that he would use. I will place my bet on Real Madrid to win the match just for fun.

On paper, Real Madrid deserves to be the favorite in the second leg match. This does not mean underestimating Bayern Munich strength, because acting as host is certainly very profitable for Real Madrid. Apart from that, ahead of the second leg match, Real Madrid appeared more consistent in La Liga, while Bayern Munich suffered another defeat in the Bundesliga. Although domestic competition cannot be used as a complete reference, it will more or less have an impact on their match in the Champions League. Real Madrid in many ways looks better prepared to advance to the final, and Ancelotti will most likely experiment again with his main lineup, which in my opinion did not work optimally in the first leg. It is true that there is a possibility that the winner will have to be determined through a penalty shootout, but the greater possibility is that Real Madrid can beat Bayern Munich in normal time. There is news that two Bayern Munich defenders are currently injured, this is of course very detrimental for Tuchel, but for Real Madrid it is certainly beneficial.

There is a lot of talk about Real Madrid cruising in the second game. They do look good for it, but it's football, so anything can happen! Of course, they've been more stable in La Liga than Bayern has been in the Bundesliga, and being at home at the Bernabeu is a big plus. But what do you know? Few people may think it will be as easy as I think it will be. Bayern has a strong will to win, and even though they've lost recently, they don't give up easy. I think Ancelotti might be trying new things again, which could work out great or badly. I think Real Madrid will win, but Bayern could also pull off an upset.

Kick out Manchester City in quarter final round is the best achievement for Real Madrid and likely the winner usually come from teams who eliminated the defending champion.

Indeed, almost everyone thinks that Real Madrid is the team closest to the trophy it was normal after seeing their achievements so far by beating favorite teams like Manchester City and maybe also Bayern Munich but we cannot say that Real Madrid will definitely be the winner because in my opinion PSG cannot be underestimated. Based on the group PSG is in the hell group and they managed to qualify for the next phase and this achievement must be a consideration for Real Madrid if they go to the final.

If we check the bookie's prediction of who will win Champions League, we can see the screenshot below, 1. Real Madrid 2. PSG meaning there is a possibility that these two teams will go to the final and even though Real Madrid are slightly favorites there is no guarantee that they will win. I still remember the champions league final a few years ago between Manchester City and Chelsea We know that almost everyone favored Man City but in the end Chelsea won.

You say cruising? Madrid are coming stronger and well tactically inclined more than ever. I watched their last match with Bayern, they played confidently but not with the sole aim to win the game, they just wanted at the lowest a draw while away and they secured the result. For Bayern coming down to Santiago Bernabeu is a bigger threat, winning Madrid In Santiago will be as a result of penalty shootout  or a last minute goal after several extra time.

If Bayern also love to win Madrid, they should aswell try to play some outside box shot, trying to play the ball inside Madrid box is difficult to keep up with, Madrid got really good defenders that makes it difficult to penetrate that easily. Bayern are left with this only opportunity to win a trophy or go trophyless this season because they already lost the Bundeslisga title to Leverkusen.

It cannot be denied that this will be very difficult for Bayern because Real Madrid is quite strong when playing at the Santiago Bernabeu, especially now that Real Madrid is in high confidence after securing the La Liga title and also a draw in the first leg at Bayern Munich's home ground makes it easier for Real Madrid to win. can turn things around in this second leg.

Of course there is still a chance for Bayern or Real Madrid but we also have to predict this realistically and I think Real Madrid will be able to win easily at home and with the quality they have, I don't doubt that.

The Bundesliga giant and Real Madrid will face each other in the mid-week at Santiago Bernabéu. It's going to be one of the top matches that will either results to credibilities. Bayern Munich have always been a headache for Real Madrid but we know the Spanish giant always finds way to put them in their place. Real Madrid is the most formidable team in the UEFA Champions League this season and the next. Los Blancos have done their best to equipped their performance with instant evident results.

[Hirose UK]

Probability shows Real Madrid as the favorite, that could be true because they are the home team. No one will underestimate Bayern Munich, but I admit that Real Madrid's chances of getting to the final are higher than Bayern Munich this season. Real Madrid's consistent performance is something that can make them appear enthusiastic in the second leg, but it is not a guarantee to say that Madrid can win.

Real Madrid is always the favorite to reach the Champions League final. The performance throughout this season and the morale aspect imply that Madrid is a better team than Bayern. Playing at home is also a big advantage for Real Madrid, and they have already secured the league title that can boost their morale to achieve more without splitting focus.

Real Madrid is also not having serious problem with injuries, while Bayern need to asses the readiness of their players who were absence in the first leg. History tells that both teams have ability to beat each others while Real Madrid have a better record in the more recent history. All this variable of probability can only serve a prediction, while anything can happen on the pitch.

Firstly, because Real Madrid is the most successful team in the UCL and Real Madrid this season performed very well with full performance until they reached the semifinals, this makes Real Madrid the favorite as the team that will win the UCL competition this season.
All the players have shown really stable qualities and can be said to be line-up that will be able to make opponents feel pressure and also be overwhelmed when they meet them.
A new era for Real Madrid will begin again after the departure of Ronaldo, who was always threat to all team when they met them, plus next season there is the option of Mbappe arrival and this could mean that Real Madrid can once again dominate the UCL competition.

If we compare it with Bayern Munich, it is clear that we can find very significant differences, in terms of the players and also the stable performance of the team in both of them.
Even though Real Madrid has problems related to injured players, they are still able to perform well and are currently not experiencing the slightest problem so it is clear that Real Madrid will be able to win the second leg match at Santiago Bernabeu over Bayern Munich.

What are the thoughts of you guys about the Champions League match between PSG and Dortmund?

BVB are ahead on aggregate score 0-1 in the first leg. In the first leg of the semi-final, PSG will correct the mistakes due to which they lost the opportunity, and in the 2nd leg, they may go full force against BVB. Ousmane Dembele did not get on well with his former club in the last match and put in a disastrous performance. Dortmund's Niclas Fullkrug showd a brutal attacking to put Luis Enrique's men under pressure. Whatever I actually want to see Dortmund win and go to the finals of the Champions League. Because that is going to be really funny in my opinion.

PSG having the best player or arguably the best player in the world right now with them and having almost all the people saying that they are going to go to the finals, is definitely going to feel really embarrassed if they do not reach the finals, and that also against Dortmund, which is not a great team and has not achieved many things in this season. I think PSG should be able to advance to the next stage. But now that Dortmund actually has an advantage, it is looking really hard for PSG. But PSG should still be able to overcome this deficit.

[topbitcoin]

If we check the bookie's prediction of who will win Champions League, we can see the screenshot below, 1. Real Madrid 2. PSG meaning there is a possibility that these two teams will go to the final and even though Real Madrid are slightly favorites there is no guarantee that they will win. I still remember the champions league final a few years ago between Manchester City and Chelsea We know that almost everyone favored Man City but in the end Chelsea won.

The home advantage always affects the odds and that's one of the things that makes the bookies make Madrid the odds-on favorite in this one but when it comes to the game on the pitch it's all about scheme and mentality which makes it difficult.

Mentally at the moment Madrid are still quite confident because of what they are doing now especially after they claimed Madrid's La Liga championship this season so it is certain that Madrid's confidence has increased but Bayern have the spirit that they can at least get the Champions League trophy considering the DFB and Bundesliga are actually certain to get Leverkusen.

In terms of play and possession of the ball if you look at the first leg Bayern is still better but Madrid's fast counterattack cannot be taken lightly because it is a plan that always works for Madrid every season.

[Velvet78]

Courtois is back after a very long injury time period. When I saw him on the bench of the first leg game against Bayern Munich I got really surprised. Because they said that he returned but got injured once again. It seemed like he wouldn't be able to play in the remaining games. But here we are. He played for 90 minutes against Cadiz recently. I wonder whether Ancelotti will put him in the starting eleven in the rematch here as well. 

It looks like there is only Alaba left who is injured at Real Madrid side. This is very positive news for them. Now I expect them to be stronger at defending as Militao is also back in business.    I don't think Bayern Munich will manage to eliminate them at Santiago Bernabeu. I still expect this thing to end in regular time.

[Jatiluhung]

Since phase group in UEFA Champion League matches, Real Madrid never loss than Bayern Munich got defeated by Lazio on first leg round 16 of round and success come back on second leg. I think Madrid has bigger opportunity to reach final round in this season behind consistency performance in domestic league and Champion League. Kick out Manchester City in quarter final round is the best achievement for Real Madrid and likely the winner usually come from teams who eliminated the defending champion.

Indeed, almost everyone thinks that Real Madrid is the team closest to the trophy it was normal after seeing their achievements so far by beating favorite teams like Manchester City and maybe also Bayern Munich but we cannot say that Real Madrid will definitely be the winner because in my opinion PSG cannot be underestimated.

I still remember the champions league final a few years ago between Manchester City and Chelsea We know that almost everyone favored Man City but in the end Chelsea won.

Since Real Madrid managed to beat Man City, I have had high hopes for Real Madrid. And yes, it is very natural that currently Real Madrid is the most favourite. But I agree that PSG cannot be underestimated either. In fact, I also think Bayern could make a surprise in the second leg. Even though Real Madrid will benefit from being the host, this is still not a guarantee that Real Madrid will win. Because Bayern is also a team with a very strong mentality. Because Bayern's squad consists of very quality players.
But I imagine that if PSG finally face Madrid in the final then it will be a lively stage. Because Mbappe will face Real Madrid, based on rumors that Mbappe might go to Madrid after his contract ends at PSG. But that's just a rumor but still it's always quite interesting to discuss.

Real Madrid is the most formidable team in the UEFA Champions League this season and the next. Los Blancos have done their best to equipped their performance with instant evident results.

The German side have got a tactics which makes them want to make some creative moves around the 18 yard box of their opponent, it's not their style to want to make attempts from a distance probably for reasons bet Known to them but I think incorporating that to their style of play this season will actually go a long way helping them get to win the against Madrid because Madrid does it in both ways and that was what helped than at some point against Manchester city.

This fixture is one of which will receive the most attention this week because I'm sure most persons are already eager to know who makes it to the finals better these two giants this season, both Madrid and Munich are experienced in the  champions league and that makes it much more interesting having both of them to contend at this point, Real Madrid ha a good and strong form this season and it's been Made obvious in their performance and result this season but it's not enough to think they will just win Munich they actually have the edge and I can say the only thing I'm certain about in this fixture is in the fact that it will be a tough one with on but a few goals.

If Madrid gets to make it to the finals I will say with confidence that they are going to win the league this season because I don't see either of pSG or Dortmund been able to stop them at this point, they are very much experienced in the champions league finals so you can hardly get to think they will get to the finals and loose it especially when they are playing against teams that's not so experienced and haven't gotten to win the trophy before but if it's between Bayern Munich and either of PSG and Dortmund then expected another epic finals.

I think PSG should be able to advance to the next stage. But now that Dortmund actually has an advantage, it is looking really hard for PSG. But PSG should still be able to overcome this deficit.

Dortmund only narrowly won 1 - 0 when they faced PSG in the first leg. I think PSG can still catch up where previously PSG lost to Barcelona 3 - 2, but in the second leg, PSG was able to reply easily. I don't think Dortmund is as calm as you think. Still one goal difference is not difficult for PSG, currently of course PSG only needs to learn from the failure in the first leg match where they have to look for gaps in the second leg match to be able to score lots of goals against Dortmund in order to qualify for the UCL final.

I know that it is not easy to do because Dortmund will of course fight hard to play defensively because they only need a draw. Dortmund can qualify for the UCL final, but besides that, PSG will not let the final result be a draw, of course they want to score more goals for beat the goal difference from the aggregate of the previous first leg match, at least PSG must win by a difference of two goals, for example 3 - 1 is more than enough, I'm sure both of them will score goals and Dortmund will also play out attacking rather than playing defensively because that won't save them play defense. but both will definitely score.

[reagansimms]

There is a lot of talk about Real Madrid cruising in the second game. They do look good for it, but it's football, so anything can happen! Of course, they've been more stable in La Liga than Bayern has been in the Bundesliga, and being at home at the Bernabeu is a big plus. But what do you know? Few people may think it will be as easy as I think it will be. Bayern has a strong will to win, and even though they've lost recently, they don't give up easy. I think Ancelotti might be trying new things again, which could work out great or badly. I think Real Madrid will win, but Bayern could also pull off an upset.

I believe anything can happen in football, but on paper Real Madrid is still the top team in the second leg. The different performances between these two teams can be predicted where the match will lead, Real Madrid's stability and consistency can control the match easily and what benefits Real Madrid the most is the support from its supporters. Bayern Munich could make a surprise, but the chances are very small. The results of the last match can be used as a reference for this match. Real Madrid, who are always diligent in breaking into the opponent's goal, had no difficulty beating Bayern Munich, who had just been humiliated by Stuttgart with a score of 3-1.

[tusandii]

Real Madrid have good advantage on that day because they are playing at home, and they will be motivated by their fans, while Bayern might be intimidated by their host fans. Bayern Munich should not be estimated, and I know that Ancelotti will never do that. Bayern can still perform very well away from home, who knows if the match might end in a penalty shootout.

However, from the recent performance of Real Madrid, I don't think that a draw will be their aim but winning the match will be their target, and Ancelotti knows the kind of strategy that he would use. I will place my bet on Real Madrid to win the match just for fun.

On paper, Real Madrid deserves to be the favorite in the second leg match. This does not mean underestimating Bayern Munich strength, because acting as host is certainly very profitable for Real Madrid. Apart from that, ahead of the second leg match, Real Madrid appeared more consistent in La Liga, while Bayern Munich suffered another defeat in the Bundesliga. Although domestic competition cannot be used as a complete reference, it will more or less have an impact on their match in the Champions League. Real Madrid in many ways looks better prepared to advance to the final, and Ancelotti will most likely experiment again with his main lineup, which in my opinion did not work optimally in the first leg. It is true that there is a possibility that the winner will have to be determined through a penalty shootout, but the greater possibility is that Real Madrid can beat Bayern Munich in normal time. There is news that two Bayern Munich defenders are currently injured, this is of course very detrimental for Tuchel, but for Real Madrid it is certainly beneficial.

Though I didn't watch that of Bayern Munich game that they suffer that defeat, but it appeared they rested some of their players in preparation for their Champions League returning match against Real Madrid and plus the fact that their league trophy is already lifted by Bayern Leverkusen, So playing with key players when they got super important game to play is something I believe could have been the reason to lose that game because they wouldn't want to risk losing any of their key play to injury.

Even though Harry Kane played in the Bayern vs VfB Stuttgart match for the full 90 minutes, then who do you mean by Bayern Munich resting their key players? What I know is that the player who contributed the most and was a key player was Harry Kane but Bayern still used him in the starting Xl so there is no excuse that can be tolerated regarding the defeat suffered by Bayern, all of this is purely because Bayern has experienced a decline in their mental performance in the Bundesliga. I was a little disturbed because I couldn't win the league trophy.

I know that Bayern is probably currently more focused on the UCL and using its best performance there because that is the only chance for Bayern to bring home a title that is bigger than the Bundesliga, but that doesn't mean that Bayern's performance in the Bundesliga will just give up without trying to win the rest. match to remain in the runner up position because VfB Stuttgart is getting closer to Bayern to take that position if Bayern continues to experience bad results.

I still expect this thing to end in regular time.

There is no point for courtois to come back now, he should just get prepared for the next season, the current Madrid goal keeper has been very incredible with his performance, his brilliance was put to test against Manchester city, when he was able to save two penalties out of the five kicks. It will be a tough choice for Madrid next season, if they will bench these current goal keeper for the return of courtois, because keeping a goal keeper of that kind of quality on the bench, will certainly make room for other clubs to come for him.

When it comes to Bernabeu, Madrid always force the attack on the opponent, they play as people that understand the four cardinal points of the field, the first leg against Bayern Munich has already thought them a Lesson that Bayern shouldn't be treated with kid gloves as they can actually take you on surprisingly. One major thing Madrid have at this stage that is helping them stand solid are the experience players on their side, because experience helps you to approach a game differently.
