UEFA Champions League 2024/25 Season

[hahay]

But I'm not sure about Ferencvaros. I mean they won by 5-0 in the first leg but sometimes these teams might surprise us in the other leg because of the complacency.

Why would you think they'd be complacent after winning big in the first leg? I checked their match history and it seems like they take this competition seriously. I don't think resting key players is a bad choice and even if they trail by 3 goals in the first half doesn't mean they can't change anything by the second half. Not to mention the target is the Champions League, not some local cups that has no history at all.

I personally occasionally bet on teams in the Hungarian league matches and I think if we compare the quality between the teams playing in the Hungarian league it is better than the teams playing in Wales. Thus, the fact that Ferencvaros also really dominated the match from all statistics and thus, I think it is natural that Ferencvaros managed to win with a score of 5-0.

With such a big win, it certainly does not matter if Ferencvaros is complacent, because it is also a pride for them because they won big in the qualifying round of the Champion League. Likewise, even if Ferencvaros rotates players in the second leg later, I'm sure Ferencvaros will still qualify. Because after all, Ferencvaros also only needs to maintain victory and even if they lose 2-0, in fact Ferencvaros will still qualify.

Second UCL qualifying round for the second leg will start today and of course this will show which team are worthy of continuing their struggle in the future in the most important competition in European football.
Several team managed to win with good score and achieved fairly comfortable aggregate lead in the first leg, they now just need to survive and really ensure that the advantage they previously gained is not in vain.
Several team are favorites in the qualifying second leg, I took several team and made them favorites, but unfortunately in this match almost all of the seeds have low odds.

Ah, today Jose Mourinho's Fenerbache are playing, who knows if this time they can win without complaints and excuses.  It will be difficult for Lugano to beat the special one's team away from home, their teams are usually very strong at home. Anyway, much games with new format.

[Webetcoins]

Actually it's really going to be interesting on how these three new teams will perform in this year uefa champions league, am talking of bologna, Bayern Leverkusen and Girona, though among them all, it's Leverkusen that I feel are the strongest among this three teams due to the fact that they haven't sell any of their best players, but the other teams, especially bologna, most of their key players have left the club already, even the manager to that took them to the UEFA champions league, so I think due to that, it's going to be a very long season for them if they don't replace those players that left with top quality.

Lastly, talking of what I am expecting from this three teams that just qualify in this year champions league, I think that this particular competition will be too strong for them, and Bayern Leverkusen wouldn't be able to stay unbeaten that long in the UCL the way they were last season in the Europa league, though I might be wrong, but that's what I think though.

There is no doubt things could not easy for these teams in Champions League as these all are having historic success into their domestic leagues and now it's challenging time for them to have success here into this event for me most chances we will have Bayer Leverkusen into round of 16 because they are having good experience of playing into UEFA and their performance and squad both are having enough potential to go through but for the rest of two teams things could be not easy.

Girona and Bologna are going for first time and it's challenging time for them to have good performance in both domestic league and Champions League usually teams lost their momentum, and we are having terrible end of season for the teams like these, but I am having some confidence in Girona which is doing good job for improvement into their squad, but Bologna is surely having not easy time, and we have to check how they will be done in coming season.

[giammangiato]

I'm really excited for the new season! I'm backing Liverpool this time around. They?ve got a strong squad. What about you?

Yes and finally after two very long years Juventus returns to play in the Champions League.  Thiago Motta is preparing the team as best as possible: let's hope so.
I am aware of the fact that the team certainly cannot perform well straight away, the players must learn to play together.
I am hopeful!

[Marykeller]

Girona will not have difficulty if they appear like last season. Bologna will also experience the same situation as Girona in the Champions League in a new format. We imagine Girona and Bologna as a team that just competed in the Champions League will be difficult, but I don't think they will experience the worst level of difficulty because they are ready to face competition in a new format that has been set will take place in the 2024/25 season.

Honestly, it is quite doubtful to expect Girona and Bologna to perform well in UCL. You must be aware that these teams have changed, they are no longer the same as the previous season. Some of the key players of Girona have moved to other teams, even their captain left the club. It will be very difficult to maintain the performance if some of key players are no longer in the squad. Meanwhile Bologna has changed their coach because Motta moved to Juventus. I am sure the performance of Bologna won't be the same as the previous season under the new coach. Even in domestic competitions, these teams may be difficult to maintain their performance. It will be harder to play in UCL, I am a bit worried with the performance of these teams in UCL. If they can't play optimally, I think they can't reach the knock-out stage.

I don't know about Bologna, but as for Girona I'm sure they will perform well, at the beginning of last season they were performing very well in their domestic league and even towards the middle of the season, at some point they were even at the top of the table in the Spanish la Liga for a while before Madrid took over the mantle. so I think they have the temperament and the composure to chat a new course in this their champions League journey. If Girona continue the way they played last season, then they are a team to watch out for.

It was last season that Girona had the best performance by appearing top of the Laliga league table. But with the sale of their key players in the 2024/2025 season, it will be hard to say whether they will have the same formidable team we saw them have last season because, some of their key players who gave them many match victories have joined other teams on loan or been sold out, while there are new players signed to the team of recently against next season.
However, the team performance for this forthcoming season will not be as exact as last season, either the performance decreases to have Girona perform less in Laliga and also the Champions League. I don't anticipate a fabulous season for them against next season with the number of players sold and bought. The team squad will experience a big falloff before they can become strong again. Not this season I guess

I am hopeful!

Liverpool and Juventus have new coaches this will be a little difficult for them to fight in the Champions League because of course there must be a stronger adaptation between them, I will not minimize the ability of both coaching tactics.

I hope Liverpool don't have another bad season, their squad is still the same as last season.
Thiago Motta can provide new colors for Juventus, considering when he led Bologna it was quite great in his strategy.

[Adams0001]

Honestly, it is quite doubtful to expect Girona and Bologna to perform well in UCL. You must be aware that these teams have changed, they are no longer the same as the previous season. Some of the key players of Girona have moved to other teams, even their captain left the club. It will be very difficult to maintain the performance if some of key players are no longer in the squad. Meanwhile Bologna has changed their coach because Motta moved to Juventus. I am sure the performance of Bologna won't be the same as the previous season under the new coach. Even in domestic competitions, these teams may be difficult to maintain their performance. It will be harder to play in UCL, I am a bit worried with the performance of these teams in UCL. If they can't play optimally, I think they can't reach the knock-out stage.

Anything is conceivable; they can give their all and perform well in the UCL since football is unpredictable. Last season, Girona did well in the laliga and challenged many clubs in the league, so I don't see why they won't perform in the Champions League next season. Girona will push Barcelona and strive to win the league if Real Madrid does not stop them, and I am confident they will do all necessary to win. The Champions League is a difficult competition in which you must find better, more talented players to fight with Real Madrid and Manchester City, they are the best clubs in the competition every season.

If Girona performs as well as they did last season, they will most likely win the competitions, but it will not be easy for them because other teams have more essential players than them in the contests. The following season's Champions League will be difficult for any club because the system has changed, and each club must sign players who can help the club win the trophy. Bologna played well last season as well, but I see Girona are better than them in terms of performance on the pitch. In my opinion, Girona and Bologna if they don't get the opportunity next season and qualify to round 16 of of the UCL they will  qualify to the europa league, let see how the ucl we go next season and know who will get the chance and win the trophy.

Performing well in the domestic league does not guarantee that you will also be able to perform well in the Champions League because the atmosphere of the UCL is very different from the domestic league. In the Champions League, you have to be able to perform consistently if you want to survive, unlike the domestic league which takes into account points to become champions.

I am more confident in Leverkusen ability than Girona, since under the guidance of Xabi Alonso, Leverkusen has turned into a club to be wary of. Girona ability is not yet able to match Leverkusen strength, if these two teams meet, it is clear that Leverkusen will win the match. Although surprises can happen in football, I am not sure Girona can do it because they will have a hard time competing with other strong teams.

You are right. The champions league is another competition that you cannot enter with the usual league; there are many clubs in the competitions that you do not play with, except in the champions league. with the way Leverkusen performed last season, winning the league and challenging Dortmund and Bayern Munich were unquestionably successful last season, and they will undoubtedly compete in the UEFA Champions League, but you can't predict whether they will win the trophy or not because the season hasn't even begun, and you can't say who will win the trophy. Many people are stating Real Madrid are the primary club that will win the title since mbappe has arrived to the club and they are more stronger and can challenge any club in the champions league. any club that comes to ucl mean they are good that is why they get the chance and play in the competition. so anyone have the chance of winning the trophy since the season as not started yet we will see how everyone club will perform and see who will get the chance but am sure levenkusen who try there best and move to round 16 in the champions league next season.

[Jossque]

Fenerbahce conceded an early goal in the first half. In a way we saw again in the first half an example of the damage Krunic is doing to the team. He doesn't add anything positive to the team, he affects it in a completely negative way. The introduction of Ismail Yuksek for Fred and Mert Hakan for Krunic completely changed the game in Fenerbahce's favor. Fenerbahçe was in complete control in the second half and managed to win the game. Szymanski scored in the last minute with a really good pass from Tadic and Irfan. Irfan scored with a good cross and Tadic scored with a "take it and score" pass.

[Adiljutt156]

Malmö were heavy favorites against their opponent even before the match started and we can say that they have already knocked them out of the Champions League with a 4-1 win at home in the first leg. He will also win away.
Bodo was again the heavy favorite in this match. I expect them to defeat their opponent on the road and I don't think they will tolerate any mistakes and I don't think they will be complacent.

It seems impossible for Malmö to beat this opponent. We could have easily said this before the first match was played. After the match, we can say that this was confirmed. I think it is impossible for the opponent to score 3-4 goals, they are a very small team anyway. Malmö are not the best team in the world either, but they are very experienced in the European championships, they will probably beat their opponent in the second match without any difficulty

Bro ,you prediction was wrong. Malmö football team lose the match against Sirius football team and the score was 1-0 . Match was tough for both teams but Malmö team was unlucky in last match and they could not do any goal in this match . Sirius team was  successful to do first goal and after that they defend the ball and Sirius players were active .Walta is single person who did goal in this match ,his practice is at top and he did goal at good time when team required this . He is hard working played and he has excellent physique due to which he became successful to do goal by facing hard conditions. Clap for that player and he is in the team due to that kind of performance.

[KTChampions]

In the first leg there were many clubs that had created a large aggregate so I think in the second leg they might play more relaxed and it doesn't matter if their opponent wins as long as it doesn't exceed what they have scored before, such as Ferencvaros, Malmo, Bodo/Glimt, Midrjyland, Dynamo Kyiv and Jagiellonia so I didn't include them in my parlay bet even though they have small odds because I'm worried they will ruin my bet especially since they are playing away so I only included a few clubs that previously only scored a smaller aggregate but have a slightly bigger chance to continue to the next round hopefully my prediction this time is right

Good odds 14.88 in all sense
It's a pity that Petrocub let you down and the result of tomorrow's game is no longer important, but winnings with such odds are quite rare (I myself bet in this range of 10-15), so you shouldn't be upset.
In the third round, it seems to me that there will again be many opportunities to pick good multi-bets - after the teams have already shown themselves, it is easier to choose those who can show an outperform.

I think I understand what you mean that much, the champions is very much of a tough competition, and to be participating in your domestic league and at same time in the champions league demands a lot from the  player's from weekend to weekday's. Team's like Girona and Bologna may be affected with fatigue from players are they are not really used to that but for Bayer Leverkusen they more likely not to be affected since the Europa league has given them a bit of experience about the whole stress.

But in all anyway, we are just making assumptions based on their history. We may be getting a shocking performance from these teams reaching a stage in the champions league competition we had never thought they could manage to finish. It's football and anything can literally happen.

[promise444c5]

If Girona can possibly come with the energy they recently came up with in the just concluded laliga once again then I see no reason for them to make no impact at UCL, forget about its game of the strong, with their previous performance they could comeuppance with something spectacular and surprising....at the moment,  they are not too complete in squad but they could be competitive interm of gameplay very soon just like Leipzigif they get more players.
They might not be able to take alot of top clubs but I see a very great potential in them... Fr

[TelolettOm]

In the domestic competition last season, they have indeed changed because their performance improved quite well but that does not mean that this season they are doing the same thing because it is precisely the pressure of this season that will make them more stressed than before given the great expectations and of course with last season's comparison so well that they must try to do the same performance.

This is definitely not an easy thing because after all, this is a test for Girona or Bologna considering they have to prepare with additional portions that are quite different where their schedule is denser than before. For Bologna, it's undeniable that they thrived under Motta last season, so they'll have to prepare for when he leaves with a new coach and a lot of pressure.
Hopefully they don't fall far because they can't compensate for the tight schedule they have by exporting the players to play harder than before.

Yes. Even if last season they could show great performance, it doesn't guarantee for another good performance for the next season. Moreover, they look not as strong as the pervious season again. It will be very difficult for them to repeat the same performance. The change of coach and some key players, will surely have big impacts to the performance of the team. It is very reasonable that we doubt with their performance in the next season, specifically for the performance in the UCL. UCL is the most difficult competition in football because it covers all the best teams in Europe.

I think a lot of people initially did not take these teams as something serious in the Champions League, obviously they are teams that will get into such a competition once in a decade, if not more. So for them to perform in the group stage is already worthy, and if they suddenly get to 1/8, it will be a real success for them

I think so. There will be no many people to expect high for those teams. But you must realize some members here to have great expectation. I think we need to explain deeply to the people who have too high hope for the teams. They mustn't bet confidently with those teams because they chance to fail very high.

Second UCL qualifying round for the second leg will start today and of course this will show which team are worthy of continuing their struggle in the future in the most important competition in European football.
Several team managed to win with good score and achieved fairly comfortable aggregate lead in the first leg, they now just need to survive and really ensure that the advantage they previously gained is not in vain.

Ah, today Jose Mourinho's Fenerbache are playing, who knows if this time they can win without complaints and excuses.  It will be difficult for Lugano to beat the special one's team away from home, their teams are usually very strong at home. Anyway, much games with new format.

Fenerbahce won the game against Lugano. Though it was not an easy game for Fenerbahce (following it's hosted the game), and I'm happy my choice was right. It's quite difficult for Special One's team to win against Lugano, but they were proving it. 

Fenerbahce's performance was not so convincing to me at all, but i take it. Also, the crucial point was when Lugano players were gassed starting from minute 60. From that point, Fenerbahce was taking control over the game. But this is not enough to face Lille, and i think Lille will be a much tougher challenge for Fenerbahce.

Fenerbahçe's current form won't be enough to beat Lille. Mou's club must improve. And last, although it's a bad game by Fenerbahçe,  they're scoring two goals.

[Minor Miner]

Fenerbahce conceded an early goal in the first half. In a way we saw again in the first half an example of the damage Krunic is doing to the team. He doesn't add anything positive to the team, he affects it in a completely negative way.

Fenerbahçe was in complete control in the second half and managed to win the game. Szymanski scored in the last minute with a really good pass from Tadic and Irfan. Irfan scored with a good cross and Tadic scored with a "take it and score" pass.

The performance of Fenerbahce players was quite slow in the first half. Fenerbahce conceded the goal in just 7 minutes. And I haven't seen Fenerbahce players create any strong attacking chances after conceding a quick goal. In the first half I saw Lugano's players dominate.

However, in the second half, Mourinho changed his match strategy. And from the beginning of the second half, Fenerbahce's players started playing with attacking tactics. Fenerbahce needed a draw in this match. And in the 59th minute, Fenerbahce's players equalized with Edin Dzeko's goal. Despite not performing well in the first half, Fenerbahce players performed well in the second half. I am satisfied with the overall performance of Fenerbahce.

Yes you are right I also think Fenerbahce played poorly in first half. They let in goal early and didn't create many chances to score. Lugano was in control, but Mourinho changed his plan at halftime. In second half Fenerbahce started attacking more and scored goal with Edin Dzeko which was important for tie. First half was disappointing, but team did much better in the second half. They showed strength and determination, making their final performance good.

Ahhh damn the chances I bet on are indeed very risky Fenerbahce and Sk Slovan according to expectations but Petrocup? this club only drew with APOEL and this result made APOEL continue to advance, in the next round it will be even more difficult to predict because APOEL will meet Slovan Bratislava seeing in the previous match Slovan's attack was a bit brutal when playing against Celje at home it seems Slovan will be the favorite to win against APOEL in the first leg.

For tomorrow's match I will be more careful to enter the Multi bet, this time I will bet on BTTS and still have quite high odds

Fenerbahce needed a draw in this match. And in the 59th minute, Fenerbahce's players equalized with Edin Dzeko's goal. Despite not performing well in the first half, Fenerbahce players performed well in the second half. I am satisfied with the overall performance of Fenerbahce.

Mourinho is good at reading the match, see problems of his team and can do quick player replacements and tactical changes to adapt to competitor and a match, then help his team to change the match direction. He does not succeed all the times but with his sharp vision and quick, determined responses, he can help his team to succeed in many matches.

Yes you are right I also think Fenerbahce played poorly in first half. They let in goal early and didn't create many chances to score. Lugano was in control, but Mourinho changed his plan at halftime. In second half Fenerbahce started attacking more and scored goal with Edin Dzeko which was important for tie. First half was disappointing, but team did much better in the second half. They showed strength and determination, making their final performance good.

With results from two matches with Lugano, Fenerbahce got the ticket they want to go next in Champions League 2024 - 2025. It's not a bad start for Mourinho with Fenerbahce and now he can focus on his start with Fenerbahce in Turkish league with a task to win it. Their boss hired Mourinho to win the domestic league title and try to go far in Champions League.

Dzeko scored four goals for Fenerbahce in two matches with Lugano. It's very impressive performance from an old striker like Dzeko and he will be one of aces under sleeves for Mourinho in a long season.

[Hirose UK]

~snip~

I think the first two are really good choices. I think Sparta Prague and Fenerbahçe both will win once again. But I'm not sure about Ferencvaros. I mean they won by 5-0 in the first leg but sometimes these teams might surprise us in the other leg because of the complacency.

However I hope you don't have any problem with that too.    Like I said before, it was really difficult to prepare a parlay that could be trusted for the second leg games. I wish the odds were a little higher for some favourites. Rather than placing a bet on a side to win maybe I might go for other bets.

Maybe this BTTS parlay with 2.80 total odds?

I almost lost the bet because Fenerbahce had great chance to draw against Lugano but it was amazing when they managed to get goal in the end.
If that hadn't happened I would have probably lost all my bets.

To be honest I rarely take BTTS but you good win.
All the games in the qualifying round were very satisfying, some of the favourites managed to win from the first leg and this second leg.

~snip~

Ah, today Jose Mourinho's Fenerbache are playing, who knows if this time they can win without complaints and excuses.  It will be difficult for Lugano to beat the special one's team away from home, their teams are usually very strong at home. Anyway, much games with new format.

They almost ended the game with draw but even with the draw Fenerbahce still got the win because of the aggregate advantage.
Mourinho was very happy with the win and Fenerbahce played well as expected.

[tusandii]

Today there are 7 matches that will take place and I will not take a big risk to get high odds.
Choosing under or over for me is a very good choice even though the odds are small but I get high odds with multi bets to get odds @8
The reason I don't take a big risk is because most of the clubs that are currently appearing are not familiar to me and I only analyze independently to get satisfactory results.

But from these 7 matches, the only ones that seem to guarantee to advance to the next round are FC Dynamo Kiev and Jagiellonia Bialystok.
Both clubs get a very large aggregate and are quite defensive without wasting too much energy to score.

Maccabi Tel Aviv FC against Fotbal Club FCSB will be a difficult match to predict but I have a little good feeling for Maccabi Tel Aviv FC to be able to qualify.
