UEFA Champions League 2024/25 Season

[Weawant]

The Champions League Competition Kicks Off In The Next Few Days. What are your predictions and thoughts for the above games. Whenever making predictions, do not forget to pay close attention to Injured and absent players from the squad.... These are the couple few I've got in mind;
Tough call between Atletico Madrid and Leipzig, game should end as a draw. Atalanta against Arsenal also would be interesting, we'll get to see Ademola Lookman, showcase what he's gott, he has been brilliant for them lately. I'm banking on gunners to either win or draw the game. Monaco might also be inna good form but Barcelona in the Champions League Competition? You don't even want to debate it. Hansi Flick would want to wrap things up immediately.
Paris winning again Girona
Both sides to score against themselves between Manchester City and Inter Milan. I won't be boggled.
Ac Milan should definitely get a win, I want to see Liverpool being hammered so hard by  Ac Milan. Already. Lol..

Monaco may disappoint you against Barcelona, have you seen Barcelona's performance lately? They aren't even joking and their coach is literally trying to put them on a trajectory of an anticipated consistent victory,  but I've not seen any of such intriguing performances from Monaco recently which will make me believe they are a good contender moreover it's champions League which we all know how demanding it can be which actually does increase the preference they place on the games. With Manchester City and inter we may witness another version of former champions League final encounter, lol.

[Issa56]

Maybe one of the reasons for Liverpool's defeat is that they wanted to prepare for the Champions League match. The Champions League is more important and Nottingham was an opponent they did not see as strong.

What I know is that Liverpool underestimated Nottingham, and Nottingham Forest surprised everyone in the match. I don’t think the Champions League match was the reason why Liverpool's attention shifted from the Nottingham Forest match, and are you even saying Liverpool can’t participate in both the Premier League and the Champions League at the same time? I don’t see any reason why Liverpool should take their Champions League match seriously over the Premier League, seriously, the result of Liverpool vs. Nottingham Forest was just a surprising one to me.

They must have thought that they could beat them in any way and underestimated them. But you shouldn't do that. You should take every opponent seriously, both in the league and in the Champions League. This defeat could even cost Liverpool the championship at the end of the year.

At least they will have learned their lesson that no opponent should be underestimated, no matter how poor the opponent’s performance is. Always make use of your main squad to start every match, and after winning comfortably, most of those players can be substituted so that they will be able to rest.

Here we go again!!!! UCL is coming back with new face!!

We're going to see two opening matches of UCL.

1. Juventus vs PSV

2. Young Boys vs Villa

I also provides the odds for those matches below.



This is my bet



Although i pick Juventus to win the game against PSV, but i consider this as a very risky decision. Juventus has been so poor in their recent games. Their attackers are completely losing their sharpness. They have terrible build up, and defence. But i bet on their superiority over PSV.

For the game YB vs Villa, i have nothing to complaints about. That's very obvious villa gonna win it.

What do you guys think?

[fuguebtc]

but I instead think that Milan vs Liverpool will be less interesting than Manchester City against Inter due to the two teams wanting a rematch in every way so it won't be a static match with a foregone conclusion, we'll see anyway

I would say both matches have significant value to their fanbases, but history wise, and if you are a neutral, you would probably favor the AC Milan vs Liverpool match. They played against each other in two finals in the last decade, both are great teams and have always been that way.

AC Milan is a transitioning team, and aren't doing that good in the league right now. They are struggling to find their sweet spot and see themselves on the 9th spot in the Serie A after 4 games, with a total of 5 points. Not so solid, is it?
Liverpool on the other hand are going to be really hungry after their disappointing loss against Forest, a team no one expected them to lose against. The game is in San Siro, definitely a difficult day for any visiting team, should be the same for Liverpool, as well.

The thing is that this match is iconic, it reminds us of that final when City won their UCL for the first time and it was against Inter where I remember that Lukaku eventually missed all the opportunities, that was something impressive, seeing Pipo Inzhagi's face was something impressive, I couldn't believe it, however I think it's a good, interesting revenge match and they can make the difference this time, I see that City is very good, Inter too, but I think that if both play very well Inter can take the victory, since they are playing with that feeling of what could not be done before.

Inter Milan vs City might go for penalty in the end. you know, both managers know enough football to out-tactic the other in their own ways. Erling Haaland started the season in dream-like form, and he is expected to keep firing his shots in the Inter goal. On the other hand, Inter is not looking too bad either, as they are also yet to lose a game this season, having racked 8 points from 4 games in the league. Both of these games will be amazing to watch, for sure.

[SOKO-DEKE]

Maybe one of the reasons for Liverpool's defeat is that they wanted to prepare for the Champions League match. The Champions League is more important and Nottingham was an opponent they did not see as strong.

It is just going to be the beginning of the group stage, and it is always very hard to see a team performing less in their domestic league just because they are preparing for the Champions League. Mostly, these things are done when the Champions League gets tougher, like in the quarterfinal or semifinal stages. This is where most teams bench some of their important players. But in stages like the group stage, where they have more opportunities to play many matches, I don't think any head coach may no try to misbehave early in the their domestic competition by benching players. In fact, Liverpool did not bench any of their key players; they all played. But the truth is that things like this happen in football, where even weak teams will sometimes defeat strong teams.

They must have thought that they could beat them in any way and underestimated them. But you shouldn't do that. You should take every opponent seriously, both in the league and in the Champions League. This defeat could even cost Liverpool the championship at the end of the year.

I don't really think that Liverpool underestimated Nottingham Forest. If Liverpool had underestimated Nottingham Forest, they could have benched their key players, but nothing like that happened. It does happen like this sometimes. In fact, Nottingham Forest has beaten Liverpool before. Even in the last two seasons, Forest was able to defeat Liverpool too. Let's just acknowledge that football is sometimes unpredictable, and we see that every season. It is possible that more unexpected outcomes will happen this season again, where weaker teams may defeat stronger ones.

[hahay]

Personally, I would hardly want to pick the game between Manchester City VS Inter in my selection, both teams are up to standard despite City having more initials to lead the game but I sense an intense game which the results might be highly unpredictable. Any option while placing a bet on this fixture, would be on a high note if the selection would be on a straight win choices because even the unexpected can happen with Inter winning at last. Merely, either Manchester City to win or a GG option on this game.

It seems to me that City is a clear favorite in this match and 1.57 for a home match is quite a high odds. It can be said that Inter saved their strength for the match with City and therefore could not beat Monza, but they also could not win in the match with Genoa. That is, away matches for Inter are not as successful as home games. Therefore, I think that Inzaghi will try not to lose in this match and will focus on the game in defense, and Guardiola will control the game and I think he will achieve victory.

Although Inter are Serie A top team but still, at this moment I think Manchester City are the better team compared to Inter. I don't care about Inter saving their strength for the match against Monza before because for me, it was just a match has played and Inter obviously got a bad result because they almost lost to Monza. Because for the next match, of course, they still have good preparation because after all, Manchester City also remained consistent with their winning streak in the Premier League, so it has nothing to do with Inter draw against Monza.

I personally will not hesitate to keep betting and choosing Manchester City to win, because basically Manchester City is a team that has a level and quality above average. What's more, Manchester City also remains the favored team based on the odds available, and that makes my confidence increase even more to keep choosing Manchester City to win.

I don't care about Inter saving their strength for the match against Monza before because for me, it was just a match has played and Inter obviously got a bad result because they almost lost to Monza.

What's more, Manchester City also remains the favored team based on the odds available, and that makes my confidence increase even more to keep choosing Manchester City to win.

Currently, even Manchester City is in their best condition. Let's see how the results of every match Manchester City have played in the Premier League. So I don't think I would hesitate to choose Manchester City as my favorite in the Manchester City vs Inter Milan UCL match. That doesn't mean I want to underestimate Inter Milan, but I just see that Manchester City has a readiness and strength that can convince anyone who has seen it. In contrast to Inter Milan, which actually looks a little weaker if we pay attention to them in the first few matches in Serie A. And even if Inter Milan were in better condition, I still wouldn't change my choice to favor Manchester City. Haaland currently even looks like a better goal-scoring machine than last season. With the help of Ilkay Gundogan and De Bruyne, we will see Haaland become a goal scoring machine again this season.

[Slow death]

Monaco may disappoint you against Barcelona, have you seen Barcelona's performance lately? They aren't even joking and their coach is literally trying to put them on a trajectory of an anticipated consistent victory,  but I've not seen any of such intriguing performances from Monaco recently which will make me believe they are a good contender moreover it's champions League which we all know how demanding it can be which actually does increase the preference they place on the games. With Manchester City and inter we may witness another version of former champions League final encounter, lol.

Monaco cannot be underestimated. They have not lost in Ligue 1 yet. They are performing well, although they do not have a very strong attack. In 4 games they have managed to score 7 goals. But they are showing that they have a good defense. And from what I see, they do not have any important players injured. Meanwhile, Barcelona, ​​who were doing well thanks to the arrival of Dani Olmo, now have some bad news. It has been confirmed that Dani Olmo has an injury that will mean he will not play for at least 4 weeks.

https://www.fcbarcelona.com/en/football/first-team/news/4120110/dani-olmo-injury-update

With this bad news for Barcelona, ​​Monaco's chances of winning or drawing the game are much higher now. And Barcelona was a disaster before Dani Olmo arrived, so I expect a disastrous game from Barcelona and I wouldn't bet on Barcelona in these 4 to 5 weeks. The bookmakers are still giving Barcelona the advantage. But I see betting on Barcelona as a risky bet.

Barcelona are obviously the favourites against Monaco, but you never can tell how things might turn out to be. With the most recent injury on Olmo, it's going to be a problem to have a free-flowing squad the way they did. The advantage they have is that Flick knows what he's doing. He has a lot of options he could use to replace Olmo. He can probably put Pedri forward and get someone else to play that midfield role.
Id like to see their game. Barcelona so far has not been easy to break down, they defend so high up the pitch and crowd the opponent's half, it'll be good to see how Monaco copes with that.

With Manchester City and inter we may witness another version of former champions League final encounter, lol.

I guess this is the reason Inter drew their match. I don't think Manchester City are going to take it likely on Inter, With the return of Rodri, Man City looks like a better squad and Haaland is in a pretty good form. Inter on the other hand have been good but they've not been on the level of City and they've been inconsistent with a couple of losses. I see that as a Man City win.

Two European giants who have both won the Champions League Trophy (Milan vs Liverpool) will compete against each other on the first matchday of the Champions League which will take place at the San Siro Stadium. Milan and Liverpool will be competing in the Champions League for the first time under the leadership of their new coaches, Milan will be led by Paulo Fonseca, while Liverpool will be led by Arne Slot who was just appointed as coach this season after Jurgen Klopp decided to retire.

Ahead of this game, the two teams had different results in their last domestic league matches, Milan managed to get their first win in Serie A in the last four matches, while Liverpool who managed to get three consecutive wins were defeated 1-0 by Nottingham Forest. This match will be a test for Paulo Fonseca and Arne Slot who will lead their team in the UCL, Milan is slightly favored because they act as hosts, but Liverpool cannot be underestimated because they are very motivated to return to their best momentum after suffering a defeat in their last game. I wouldn't place a bet on this match as it is very difficult to predict who will emerge as the winner.

[snipie]

Although i pick Juventus to win the game against PSV, but i consider this as a very risky decision. Juventus has been so poor in their recent games. Their attackers are completely losing their sharpness. They have terrible build up, and defence. But i bet on their superiority over PSV.

I don't trust Juventus that much because they kept fluctuating badly since few seasons. This time they started well Serie A before they started missing points. Now in UEFA Champions League, things became more difficult and quite random because all teams want to progress as far as possible in this competition and Juventus used to walk away fast.
For bookies, they are clear that Juventus is the one which will win this match with an odd less than 2 for most betting platforms.

I wouldn't place a bet on this match as it is very difficult to predict who will emerge as the winner.

For this match I only hope that both teams score goals and there are more than 2 goals in this match. And actually I want to favorite Liverpool for that match but it looks like I won't do that. AC Milan is actually not in a convincing enough condition this season in their domestic league. AC Milan could be said to have started the season badly, but in their last match in Serie A we saw AC Milan make an extraordinary victory. And on the other hand, Liverpool have started the new season very well with Arne in the slot, but in their last match in the Premier League we actually saw Liverpool defeated by a team that is often considered weak in the Premier League. Nottingham Forest unexpectedly beat Liverpool at Anfield stadium which made us almost unable to believe it. Because in this match Liverpool should have been able to achieve a big win instead of a dramatic defeat as hosts. And I agree that this match will be quite difficult to predict. considering the current condition of the two teams is quite difficult to predict. AC Milan has home advantage in this match. But Milan's poor start to the season means they remain doubted by most people.

[Salahmu]

For the first week, Liverpool vs Milan will be a really exciting game. As this is Liverpool's away game, there is a lot to see on how Arne Slot sets up a team away from home. He has been alright so far, but getting the first away UCL win will be really impressive if he can pull this off.

Normally Liverpool is supposed to win that match but I'm beginning to have a doubt about them because sometimes is not even good to judge base on the club that looks more promising because that was how I think that Liverpool will win Nottingham Forest but they came and totally messed up by losing to Nottingham Forest, so is difficult to also predict this one because already if we should compare Nottingham forest with Milan I believe Milan is much better than them, so since Nottingham forest win them means that is going to be serious on the both team, so even if I'm going to bet I think I would go for teams I'm a little bit sure of because Liverpool is becoming inconsistent this season.

From the head to head liverpool vs milan so far, Liverpool has been able to dominate the victory over Milan every time they meet, but even so, of course, the history of the meeting between the two teams cannot be used as a reference in judging which team will win later, because every season there are many changes in a team which will affect their game performance in every seasons, But from what we have seen in some of the domestic matches that they are currently playing, of course we can judge which team is worthy of our favorite in the match, Milan vs Liverpool will be a classic match that will give us an interesting match later, but to be honest, compared to Milan at the moment I personally would actually choose to bet on Liverpool victory although they has just lost to Nottingham,  Because so far Liverpool still has a better performance than Milan in Serie A.

That's just the thing, there is always difference in most clubs every season, I no that Liverpool has always been the favourite on all there meeting but we cannot have it on our mind that this time will also be the same for them because if we check all there previous meeting the only reason why Liverpool has always been the favourite was because of there consistency and good performance but those performance are no longer the same on this season which is why I'm having a doubt about there performance, though if is squad Liverpool is always higher but my fear is how reluctant they can be sometimes because you can bet on them and they end up not wining, so actually on that regards I will instead bet on Liverpool to win or draw.

[Velvet78]

Maybe one of the reasons for Liverpool's defeat is that they wanted to prepare for the Champions League match. The Champions League is more important and Nottingham was an opponent they did not see as strong. They must have thought that they could beat them in any way and underestimated them. But you shouldn't do that. You should take every opponent seriously, both in the league and in the Champions League. This defeat could even cost Liverpool the championship at the end of the year.

I don't think so exactly honestly. Because if you have noticed so far, top Premier League teams are prioritizing the league title over the Champions League one. This was why Arsenal also couldn't meet the expectations completely in the previous season. I think it was just a bad day for Liverpool. Sometimes you don't manage to win no matter how hard you try...

Anyways, the first game for Liverpool is against Milan. It is at San Siro. What is your opinion?    I think Liverpool will start with a victory. Milan won their last league game but still it doesn't change the fact that they are unbalanced these days.

[imamusma]

-snip

In my opinion PSV will win this game, they are a team that has been performing well in the last 4 years and even in European competitions they are also improving, last season they managed to draw against Arsenal and Dortmund and beat Sevilla in European Champions League games. And as you said, Juventus continue to be an inconsistent team, and their biggest strength is in defense, but PSV's biggest strength is in attack with 5 games they have scored 20 goals and they are also strong in defense. I see some football analysis pages saying that Juventus will win. The bookmakers are also placing Juventus as favorites, but I think PSV is better prepared to win the game.

I also thought that PSV could beat Juventus with the current PSV squad being so strong. However, I also have to consider that Juventus also has very good experience in the past but it will all depend on the current coach.
I have a little conclusion that in this match it is a little difficult to determine who will win the match. But I probably will not bet on the victory of one of the teams but will bet on the total score of both teams.
My prediction is that both teams will not score big and maybe BTTS will also be the best choice.

The odds shown do place Juventus as the favorite team, but I don't think they are too dominant between each other. There is a possibility that Juventus will perform differently when playing in the Champions League, although we realize that it takes extra work, especially since they were absent last season due to sanctions. PSV have the attributes to make a surprise, they have better confidence than Juventus. Thiago Motta and his squad are a little lucky to act as hosts, then I think Juventus can win narrowly today.

Juventus have better tradition in Champions League, and in this season they have a better squad that is more competitive than PSV. Though these things help Juventus to have some advantages before their match with PSV but two draws in Serie A lately show that Juventus are not too good in attacks.

This lack of good attacks from Juventus will give PSV some chance to get 1 point from Juventus and maybe PSV don't want more than 1 point. They are weaker than Juventus if if they can play well in defense, they can block Juventus attacks and have 1 point from this strong opponent. That result, even not a win, will be good start for PSV in Champions League.

[Jatiluhung]

Monaco cannot be underestimated. They have not lost in Ligue 1 yet. They are performing well, although they do not have a very strong attack. In 4 games they have managed to score 7 goals. But they are showing that they have a good defense. And from what I see, they do not have any important players injured. Meanwhile, Barcelona, ​​who were doing well thanks to the arrival of Dani Olmo, now have some bad news.

And Barcelona was a disaster before Dani Olmo arrived, so I expect a disastrous game from Barcelona and I wouldn't bet on Barcelona in these 4 to 5 weeks. The bookmakers are still giving Barcelona the advantage. But I see betting on Barcelona as a risky bet.

I think don't forget Barcelona's two matches in the first two weeks of LaLiga before Dani Olmo officially became a Barcelona player. In the first two weeks of Barcelona without Dani Olmo, we have seen Hansi Flick's squad play very well. I may not have followed their matches much but I see that the statistics they have produced are very impressive since the start of the season. And then Dani Olmo made his first debut for Barcelona in Week 3 of La Liga, when Barcelona played Rayo and indeed since then Barcelona has looked increasingly better. But I think Dani Olmo's injury will not have much of an impact on Barcelona's level of play, which has been quite solid even before Dani Olmo officially joined. So I think even in the match against Monaco, Barcelona will probably still be a favorite for many people.

But Monaco is also having a pretty good season in Ligue 1. Monaco has never lost. But Barcelona's record looks much better with 5 consecutive wins in La Liga. Meanwhile, Monaco won 3 times and drew 1 in the first 4 weeks of this season in Ligue 1.

Historically, the AC Milan vs Liverpool game is without doubt the most important game in the first match week of the UEFA Champions League competition and that's because of the achievements of both clubs in the competition. Just like you rightly said, staking a bet on the game will be very difficult but I think I'll go for the option of goals as I believe that game will produce 2+ goals.

For the game YB vs Villa, i have nothing to complaints about. That's very obvious villa gonna win it.

What do you guys think?

Personally I wouldn't last that long because slots have aggressive animation and are boring to me. I can play dice for a long time, but only because I try different strategies. In the prediction contests, I bet against the favorites (choosing their loss or draw). It seems to me that in the first rounds we will see more unexpected results and mostly draws, since the teams will not be particularly tense but will try not to concede a goal.
By the way, Young Boys are a dangerous team - they beat Galatasaray twice to get here.

Here we go again!!!! UCL is coming back with new face!!

We're going to see two opening matches of UCL.

1. Juventus vs PSV

2. Young Boys vs Villa

I also provides the odds for those matches below.



This is my bet

For the game YB vs Villa, i have nothing to complaints about. That's very obvious villa gonna win it.

What do you guys think?

Juventus are actually not too bad with matches in Serie A that are almost the same as Inter Milan who have 8 points but when it comes to Champions League matches maybe it will be a little different that we know.

Because I don't want to take a bigger risk, I won't choose Juventus as a bet this time, because there are some good opportunities even though the odds are below @1.50 but it's confident enough for me to do it.

About Aston Villa so far is better than Young Boys, it would be better for both teams to score than Aston Villa win, this is your choice then you are free to do it.
My time is only focused on the big clubs that will be bet on.
