UEFA Champions League 2024/25 Season

[khiholangkang]

I think people are sleeping on Atletico Madrid this season, they have a solid squad and a great coach, they could make a deep run in the UCL, especially if they can get their defense clicking properly.

It's not that many people don't pay attention, but most people still think that a team like Atletico Madrid is still mentally inferior when competing in the Champions League because there are many teams that have the mentality to win the Champions League. In addition, Atletico Madrid will also face Real Madrid, who are generally still strong in the Champions League every season, so this will still be a serious obstacle for Atletico Madrid this season.

Actually, many people pay attention to Atletico Madrid but we speak always abundantly by his twisting team, Real Madrid, who is always more good as if we don't really consider Atletico Madrid.

I agree that Atletico Madrid is a team with a solid player and also a great coach this season they showed a much better performance and that in the Champions League and the Domestic League became very pleasant to see, and the trip in the Champions League we still doubt it because the opponent was Real Madrid which was one of the toughest rivals for Atletico Madrid.

I don't see Atletico Madrid as a small team. They're actually working hard to carve a niche for themselves. Atletico Madrid is working hard to win this Championship but having them to fixture with Real Madrid is a death trap. It is going to be tough and uneasy for them, no too ways, and there chances of survival will depend on the wonders they will pull on that very day. However, with that being said, I feel like they are on top of their games and ready to fight to the finish.

I did not say that, i said that compared to the others present it was perhaps the smallest in relation to victories and history and much more.
I probably be mistaken but i dont think it can be able to go much to the bottom, in my opinion it cannot manage to manage Liga and the Champions League together.
I repeat, maybe im wrong

I understand your point fam. I know you were trying to regard Atletico Madrid a less victorious team as compared to Barcelona and Real Madrid especially when it comes to their triumphs in taking the La Liga league titles and the UEFA Champions League trophy which is absolutely true. When you talk about international competitions played by these teams, Atletico Madrid, despite becoming runner ups in three occasions have never won the Champions League trophy, they have one only once the intercontinental cup and 3 Europa League. Nationally, they've won the La Liga league title for 11 times with 10 runners up and won the Copa del Rey cup 10 times and 9 times as runners up.

When compared to the likes of Real Madrid, Madrid has won 15 UEFA Champions League trophies, two Europa league trophies, 36 La Liga league titles and 20 Copa del Rey cups while Barcelona has won a total of 5 Champions League trophies, 27 La Liga league titles and 31 Copa del Rey. Now when you put in all these figures together, it will suggest to everyone why you called Atletico a small club as compared to the other two clubs.

While Atletico Madrid could be looking good to you, I have to say they are not really extra ordinary at the moment, not having some insane season. Like for example, Liverpool is having an insane season and while we may still not see them win the title, at least we know that they were the first team, the ranking matters, Atletico Madrid is having a decent season for sure, but not enough to raise any eyebrows at them.

Could they win it? Maybe, it is not impossible and it can be done, but I do not have much hopes about them this season, feels like it is going to be just a regular season and nothing that crazy, we should not be considering this as a way to look at it differently, we could definitely see this being quite boring.

It is very difficult to predict who will be the champion. Because the matches are really difficult. The match between Liverpool and Paris Saint-Germain is one of the most important matches in my opinion. Liverpool is doing great this year and Paris Saint-Germain seems to be a team that has recovered. A surprise against Liverpool could change the entire course of the Champions League. Everyone expects Liverpool to be the champion this year, but a difficult last 16 round awaits them.

Liverpool this season has performed amazingly, they performed well in the Premier League and showed the same thing in the Champions League. But that also cannot be a benchmark, because their meeting with Paris Saint Germain could show a surprise. However, they must be careful with Paris Saint Germain, despite their performance not being better than Liverpool, they are still one of the big teams that are always in this Champions League. Apart from that, Paris Saint Germain's motivation in this match may also be very big.

After years of injuries and trying to have solid combination now things are working perfectly for Liverpool, and they are having good dominance in Premier League and Champions League this is surely going to be historic season for Arne Slot who is current in charge and taking good advantage of Jürgen Klopp hard work.


Now they are unofficially champions of English Premier League as they have 13 points lead and 10 matches remaining while they are already in EFL Cup final now they needed to concentrate on Champions League which is never been easy PSG is having good results in last few weeks which give them good confidence their win against Manchester City and Stuttgart big breakthrough even currently they are not good enough to have win but still now they are doing impressive work for having good end of their season.

Liverpool is doing very well in the league, just like you said and they are also finalists in the EFL cup, down to Champions League, they didn't lost or draw any game until the very last day of the Champions League group stages phase which they dropped points. PSG on the other hand is doing marvellously well in their league as always though and came alive stronger in their last 2 games of the UCL. Right now, between these two teams i really don't know which one will be victorious but I'm sure we are going to have a great and epic game on Wednesday between both of them.

I agree, even Atletico Madrid will probably fail, I do see a lot of people who underestimate Bayern Munich as well. I feel like they do have the right squad to win the whole thing, not saying they will, but not even considering them is a mistake. I would say they have a chance, they could make it work, they are not a bad team and they have what it takes to win, they are a winner club and have won it in recent years as well.

So I am assuming that the best way to move forward for them would be focusing on what can be done to get a better result and go further, it just has to be the most important part, we need to make sure that we can handle it and can get a greater return washout a doubt, that has to be very careful.

The thing is that, you wouldn't blame people for speaking abundantly of Real Madrid, they have stood the test of time and have successfully proven themselves. When Diego Simeone came in as a coach for Athletico Madrid, he changed the demography of the team, he was able to win the Spanish la Liga had shown great performance even in the champions league, however after a while we started witnessing a drop in his firepower, inconsistency started creeping in, while the likes of Real Madrid will always blossom despite the challenges they encounter.

There is no doubt that Athletico Madrid have very good players, in fact they showed their prowess recently when they drew 4-4 against Barcelona in their last Copa del Rey encounter, this is to show that they still have a lot to still offer, so their game too against Real Madrid in the champions league will be a tough one.

PSG may have come up with a very good stunt in their last two games in the champions league and that gave them the chance to qualify for the next round of the champions league. Liverpool is a very strong team and they are the best for the champions league title as it is now, no any other team by performance so far this seaosn in the champions league has a very good chance like them to win the trophy. Liverpool is a top tier team and their performance this season is very impressive, so I don’t even see them as a team that is going to fall down in the hands of PSG in the champions league. This will be a tough match and no doubt about it, but Liverpool is the best team that is going to win the match.

[SatoPrincess]

Of course Liverpool are more favored to win the match when they meet PSG in the Champions League because the competitive level of the teams in the Premier League is very different from the competitive level of the teams in Ligue 1. So it is quite natural for many people to be more confident in Liverpool than in PSG because even though both are teams that are currently ranked first in their respective leagues, Liverpool has more ability in terms of beating any opponent at this time.

Not only in the domestic league, Liverpool is a team that has managed to be at the top of the Champions League qualifying round. Liverpool has only lost 1 out of 8 matches, while PSG has a different situation. The first leg will take place at PSG's home ground, not meaning it will be a big advantage for PSG, but it will be a match that will be quite difficult for both teams. If Liverpool can win the first leg by a margin of 2 goals, they will be quite comfortable in the second leg when playing at home and can ensure a ticket to the next round.

Arne Slot fielded a second string squad in the final League Phase match against PSV, which resulted in their defeat. In my opinion, if Arne Slot had not rotated his squad, we might have seen Liverpool leading the standings with 24 points. Meanwhile, PSG had a very hard time reaching the round of 16, so it is natural that they are not the favorites when facing Liverpool. Of course, I don't mean to underestimate PSG, but on paper Liverpool are more worthy of being the favorites.

It will be a very wrong decision to underrate this current PSG team because when you take a peep at their stats in the French league this season they have about 24 games, recording no loss at all. They are obviously a dangerous team under Luiz Enrique so certainly they will give Liverpool a tough competition in the next champions league round. In my opinion there a possibility than they can even knock Liverpool out of the knockout phase of the champions league.

PSG have always been characterised by their inability to perform well and consistently in the Champions League. Every time they have something wrong with them. Given that they will now be playing against the actual EPL champions - they have no chance of winning. The best they can get is a draw, but it's no use, because it will lead to a defeat anyway.

This will be a tough match and no doubt about it, but Liverpool is the best team that is going to win the match.

On a very good day for PSG, only Osman dembélé can change the game for everyone and win them a match. But such a fantastic player does not deliver in every match unlike a player like Mohamed salah which you are very sure will deliver you in every match.

If we are talking about the current form of the teams, we are so much convinced that Liverpool is in better position to win PSG. Even in the Champions League experience, Liverpool is more grounded. So it is fine that everyone expects Liverpool to qualify ahead of PSG but since it is Champions League wonders still happen, especially when there is a chance for a second chance. Like home and away matches.

[hahay]

I think Arsenal is still quite lucky because their opponent in the last 16 is PSV, because I think if you compare the quality of the two, Arsenal is still better. Although indeed, I also admit that PSV is a team that cannot be underestimated at all, but because Arsenal is used to the tough competition in the Premier League,then maybe that will also be a factor for Arsenal to succeed in defeating PSV later. Moreover, Arsenal's chances in the Premier League standings have disappeared even though they are still in second place, so maybe Arsenal will do their best in the Champions League. Although indeed, Arsenal is not a candidate team for the Champions League title either, but at least Arsenal can still  try their best to be able to go far in the Champions League  this season.

[TelolettOm]

I was thinking that Luis Enrique will be a better coach to help PSG win the Champions League, but without Mbappe, the team have less hype and their performance was not as usual even though the team is becoming balance this days, but we can’t use the League1 to judge the team’s performance alone

Yes, time has proven that their experience in Ligue 1 is indeed very different from the competition in other leagues which are much more aggressive and tighter in terms of competition. And even back when Mbappe, Messi, and Neymar were still at the club, PSG still couldn't win the UCL.

All lines must be ready to fight strong clubs from other leagues. and especially in this round of 16, PSG must fight Liverpool, really unlucky, a club that is currently very optimistic and highly motivated to win the UCL. And this will be a very difficult challenge for PSG if they want to win, they must try much harder in every line.

You can't conclude yet.. Fine! Liverpool is kinda going hard this time around but that doesn't mean they can't be beaten as well and I don't think you've be watching PSG games recently.
After they qualified  for the second stage, their performance as increased with obvious notice unless you just didn't watch any of their games... they are breaking teams as of recent and if Liverpool doesn't prepare as well they code lose their sh*t , the spirt of UCL is kinda different when it starts hitting the knockout stage but Liverpool is strong this time too and  I know they wouldn't want let off guard.
All I know is that it won't be an easy game  at all

[wmaurik]

I would have said it would be a tough match but with Real Madrid line up of injured players in defense and mbappe not to mention Bellingham suspension. Things are looking bleak for Real Madrid. It would take a miracle to see a win from their side not disputing Atletico Madrid strength this season.

The strength of the team does not lie in one or only the players and the defender who is still injured in the Real Madrid team is only two left so that it will not have a bad effect on Real Madrid. Because if you are aware and understand the power of Real Madrid in the Champions League, maybe you will see how fierce their matches are with the extraordinary tactics of the Real Madrid coach who is still able to wake up the mentality of Real Madrid players in all competitions this season.

[hyudien]

Liverpool this season has performed amazingly, they performed well in the Premier League and showed the same thing in the Champions League. But that also cannot be a benchmark, because their meeting with Paris Saint Germain could show a surprise. However, they must be careful with Paris Saint Germain, despite their performance not being better than Liverpool, they are still one of the big teams that are always in this Champions League. Apart from that, Paris Saint Germain's motivation in this match may also be very big.

Frankly, I think Liverpool is the favorite against Paris Saint-Germain. Because Liverpool is the biggest favorite in the Champions League this year. They played magnificently in the match against Real Madrid. In my opinion, Liverpool will show us why they are the favorites with their effective play against Paris Saint-Germain. Of course, Paris Saint-Germain is not a small team. We can say that it will be fun to watch this match.

It is undeniable that Liverpool is the team that is more favored in this match, including me also making them the favorite to win and advance to the next round. However, in football, it cannot be a 100% guarantee because there are many factors that will affect it. What is clear is that Liverpool is now on top to be able to win the match. However, once again, I hope they are not too complacent with their current status, because if they are complacent with the existing situation, then it could be a problem that will harm them.

[shinratensei_]

I think people are sleeping on Atletico Madrid this season, they have a solid squad and a great coach, they could make a deep run in the UCL, especially if they can get their defense clicking properly.

You can't really say this once Atletico fight Real Madrid. I know Atletico is better, but Madrid is far better than them. I'm still in my choice to favor Real Madrid to win the game soon.

If Atletico is good enough, they could be winning UCL, but it almost never . It's kinda different with Real Madrid with its a lot of UCL trophies.

As long as Real Madrid can have its forwards working properly, it's easy to breaking Atletico's defensive line.

Liverpool are stronger and more impressive than PSG in this season, and if we look at past seasons, Liverpool have better performances in Champions League than PSG in general. This can be their big advantage against PSG but in coach experience, PSG have a more experienced coach. Arne Slot does not have much experience in Champions League like Enrique.

Considering from player quality, coach quality and experience as well as their general forms in this season and recent forms, I think Liverpool have more chance to win against PSG in round of 16. It would be another disappointed season for PSG in Champions League and perhaps they will consider to change their head coach position again in the next summer.

[Fuso.hp]

Where have you seen that Liverpool is not playing well, it may be your mistake. To confirm this, you see the Liverpool team performance in the UEFA Champions League and see their performance in the Premier League.

Honestly Liverpool performances is moving forward in both Champions League and the Premier League they want this want to keep a strong record this season that’s why they make their performances so strong against every of their opponents, even those that are stated that Liverpool are not playing; is like not every of Liverpool match are watching that’s why.

Because almost all of their previous matches they try enough, if not as of recently that i see that they were lose to most they some of their matches, but with that their still leading the champions league with top of table with high points.

Yeah. Liverpool are not showing any sign of weakness either; they are already dominating the two competitions. They are ready to make things possible this season, even though recently they lost some. They are still going to make things good, as I’m seeing. Normally they can’t always win, but they just need to do the needful, and they are doing it. Although the Champions League is different from the Premier League, and I can see that comparing their performance in the Premier is much more promising than their performance in the Champions, all that is needed is that they are already topping both standings and working towards that. I believe Liverpool will make their fans proud this season.

Liverpool have been doing well in the Premier League and Champions League since the start of the season and their performances seem to be improving with each match. If Liverpool perform like this, they will have a very good chance of winning the Premier League and Champions League titles this season. We have been missing this Liverpool for a long time. Earlier, Liverpool used to perform well in the Premier League as well as in the Champions League, but in the middle they lost the consistency of their excellent performance. If they win the Premier League title this season, they will celebrate winning the Premier League title again after a long time. And if they can win the Champions League title then maybe this season will be history and one of the best season for them. With the way they are performing, they are worthy contenders for the two tournament titles. 
Best of luck to Liverpool of course.

[Luzin]

Of the 16 clubs that qualified for the knockout phase, I saw that there were 5 teams that had never won the UCL. Their best achievement is as a runner up.  This period is a good opportunity but it seems that it will be difficult to win with the current condition of the team they have. In addition, the opponents they face are teams with good player statistics.

The five teams that have never won the UCL are
1. Arsenal
2. Bayern Leverkusen
3. Atletico Madrid
4. Club Brugge
5. PSG
Does anyone hope they are champions this season? I don't because I hope Madrid will be champions again this year.
