UEFA Champions League 2024/25 Season

[Frankolala]

So 1st out of 8 matchdays will take place between Tue 17th Sep and Thu 19th Sep.
We'll see a total of 18 games, so plenty to choose from. The biggest one is probably Man City Vs Inter in Manchester. The champions of England and last year Champion's League finalists against the champions of Italy who almost made it to the UCL quarter finals (lost to Atletico Madrid on penalties).
Liverpool Vs Milan also sounds interesting, but Milan does not impress with their league games, with only 2 points earned in the first 3 Serie A games. Haven't checked the odds for this one yet but expect Liverpool to be a big favourite.

I think these two games that you stated above will be the most interesting on that day. It will be lovely to see City and Inter clashing but I think City have the high chance of winning Inter because they are playing in Etihad stadium. Inter have improved in their performance and I know that match will be a challenge for Inzaghi.

Milan is currently weak if you look at it from their recent performance, their new coach cannot understand the team and how to manage the players making it difficult for them to win matches. It is clear that Liverpool will be able to win the match but one should not use the performance of a team in their domestic league to judge in UCL.

Milan did not have a good start to the 3 matches. In contrast to Liverpool's performance in the Premier League, they won 3 matches in full, without even conceding a goal.
But we know that the team's performance in the Champions League is sometimes far from our predictions. Moreover, Milan will play at home, and also related to the rumor that the Milan coach might get bad luck if his team's performance does not improve.

Another interesting match is Arsenal vs Atalanta. Atalanta in Serie A has also only got 3 points from 3 matches. A bad start for a team that won the Europa League trophy last season. In terms of chances, Arsenal will definitely be more favored even though they will play at Atalanta's home.

We will  enter the international break this week considering that every country will play their matches for the World Cup qualifying matches and the Uefa Nations League, and of course every team will be a little worried about whether their players will play for their country considering that the Champions League match schedule is now getting closer, clubs which you mentioned will have their first match in the Champions League this season, but I think maybe we will see many surprises that occur in the 8 matches considering that there will be many big matches that will played, but I think the Milan vs Liverpool match will be a classic match and reminds us of their very tight rivalry in the past in every Champions League match, at the start of this season Liverpool showed quite good performance in the English league and this very different from Milan who have not found their best performance so far under their new coach, but I think that is will not promise an easy match for Liverpool in later.

We can definitely see that UCL is harder than any other league, that has to be the most important part and this is why it gets so much viewership and so much money to everyone.

Normally in other leagues those big teams do get that money, like whoever finishes at the top five places and such, but in UCL everyone gets a lot, I think every team in group stages already gets like 20 million, in most leagues that's the money for the winner except a few, and only the big teams get that much in big leagues, when you go further you make more money than any other league.

So, this is why UCL is harder, because the reward is higher as well, teams like Dortmund reaching finals even for once means that they have enough money to get so many great players like they did this year. This is why every team puts the biggest emphasis on UCL, if you have a chance to rest a player for one game and play another, you rest him during the league and play him at UCL game without a doubt.

City is quoted at 1.49, and Liverpool at 1.88. Liverpool is the favorite, but the odds are close to 2, since it's an away game. Plus, we mustn't forget that this is a group tournament and the value of each game is relatively small, so we won't see an irreconcilable fight in every game. Probably the most reliable option is to make 18 bets on a draw (well, not 18, but less, since we need to exclude games like Bayern - Dynamo lol).

Indeed, when talking about Champions League matches, the results are always unexpected. Clubs that perform poorly in the Domestic League are actually focused on the opportunity to do better in the Champions League. Therefore, Liverpool should not underestimate Inter who have indeed performed poorly in Serie A. Moreover Arsenal will get a fairly difficult opponent like Atalanta, they were the Europa League champions last season and in terms of Atalanta game is strong enough to make Arteta game plan difficult.

Domestic leagues is quite different and mostly key factor for elite clubs to win games and lift trophies. For elite clubs, we've watch the epic performance and results for most of these elite clubs in previous seasons. Manchester City and Real Madrid stands in the picture and obtaining a winning shouldn't be a challenge for them, the players understands the pressing presure and how to coupled up with the necessities. The UEFA Champions League is tough, but we expects brilliant results from elite clubs since they're more advanced than average clubs.

But indeed, usually some elite teams have different results to the ones they have in the domestic league and in the Champions League because indeed, even though elite teams have good results in the domestic league, but the reality is that it is still possible for them to get bad results in the Champions League. But even so, when the matches have not started yet then surely we will have at least the same voice about the good chance for the elite teams in the Champions League, they still have a chance to win. What's more, with this new format because the system also has to get as many points as possible then of course these elite teams might perform even more optimally in the Champions League this season.

I mean, comparing the old format and this new format, I think in this new format the competition will be more competitive and maybe, their habits in the past will change with this new format because they also need a lot of points to qualify for the next round. With that reason, even though we're still not used to the new format, but I think the competition will be more interesting than the old format, so let's look forward to it.
