UEFA Champions League 2024/25 Season

[Publictalk792]

Before Mbappe joined Real Madrid, many Real Madrid fans hoped that if Mbappe joined Real Madrid, the team would perform much better in La Liga and the Champions League and be a much stronger team. But Mbappe has yet to strengthen Real Madrid with his performances after he joined the team. Observing Mbappe's current performances, many have commented that he may not have adapted to his new club yet, which is why he has yet to deliver his best performances. But almost a few months have passed since Mbappe joined Real Madrid.

Maybe during this time he will quickly make good friends with all the members of the new club and try to give his best performance. He missed two penalties in a row a few days ago, which made many Madrid fans even more frustrated.

Yes before Kylian Mbappe joined Real Madrid many fans thought he would help team play much better in La Liga and in Champions League. But since he arrived Mbappe has not played as well as everyone hoped. Maybe he is still getting used to his new team and city but it has been few months now and fans are getting impatient. When he recently missed two penalties in row it made fans even more frustrated. Now it is time for Mbappe to start playing really well and showing everyone why he is such great player.

Juventus vs Manchester City will be interesting, I think Juventus will win in this match because Manchester City is still the same. Juventus might not be a strong team, but Manchester City is just weaker than them.

Bayer Leverkusen vs Inter is also interesting, probably end in draw.

If we look at the first game from betting aspect, I would stay away from betting on a side. Because Manchester City already disappointed me with that result against Crystal Palace.    Juventus aren't also amazing either.

Actually these teams have the same points in the Champions League currently. Manchester City are much more productive with 13 goals against 7 goals. However Juventus are better when it comes to defending. A draw wouldn't surprise me.

For the other game, I agree with you. It depends on whether Leverkusen will manage to break Inter's defense easily which isn't very likely.    Inter haven't conceded a single goal so far.

Liverpool will be visiting Girona tonight and it will be a fresh start for Liverpool since they lost that chance of getting all 3pt from Newcastle but settled for a draw to get 1pt, and the game between against Everton was postponed due to bad weather condition, it will give the Liverpool side an advantage against Girona because the Reds have more resting time ahead of this champions league encounter.
Girona who lost against Madrid in the weekend with a very poor performance don't really have much resting period and if they some how get a point against Liverpool then they have tried their best but I can't say they will even show something positive after that disappointing performance against Madrid.
If Liverpool don't dominate this game from the start to the end then I don't think they have gotten over that surprise they got against Newcastle. The Reds are seen as the favorite even with the odd from the bookies and Liverpool have been up to the task both in the champions league and the EPL than their opponent who are not impressive in both the UCL and the La Liga. This is a chance for Slot to redeem himself ahead of their next EPL game.

Another thing to note is that Liverpool haven't lost any game since the champions league began so definitely teams would be looking to spoil that record and although many will feel that Liverpool would thrash Girona because they are somehow average compared to them but I'd like to cast their minds to when Atalanta gave the same Liverpool a shocking and unexpected defeat when they won 3-0 last season so if anything, I'd be keeping my fingers crossed because football is unpredictable.
 Arne Slot drew his last away game to Newcastle, so what's to say that he won't lose this one even though they have had enough resting time?

Atalanta was pretty in amazing form when they played against Liverpool in the Europa League competition, and Liverpool was not at their best form at that time, which led to Atalanta's surprising defeat against Liverpool in last season's Europa League competition. Girona had an amazing season in La Liga last season and finished in third place of the La Liga table to secure a spot in this season's UEFA Champions League competition, but they were not able to replicate the same performance this season, and they even lost to Real Madrid at home in their last La Liga match, so I don't see Girona as a club that can upset Liverpool in this match. With the unbeaten record of Liverpool in this season's UEFA Champions League competition, they will travel to Girona's home and beat them on their home soil.

With the unbeaten record of Liverpool in this season's UEFA Champions League competition, they will travel to Girona's home and beat them on their home soil.

Atalanta is among the worst opponents you would want to be facing in Real Madrid's situation. They have won their last 9 consecutive games and didn't lose a game like forever. The odds aren't worth a bet I guess because the bookmakers have long realized that this is a 50/50 game in a best case scenario for Real Madrid. I think Atalanta has an advantage here. AC Milan now literally had no chance to beat Atalanta. They are not playing their best, but still when AC Milan can only have 2 shots on target in the whole game, that's not a lot.

Since Atalanta is one of the best counter attack teams currently and Real Madrid has to win that game because another loss would put them at serious risk in the Champions League, I think this is a game that perfectly plays into Atalanta's cards.

Vinicius and Rodrygo are now back, but it remains to be seen whether they can go full distance and show their best game already when both had been injured for quite a while, but Real Madrid doesn't have a choice.

Liverpool will be visiting Girona tonight and it will be a fresh start for Liverpool since they lost that chance of getting all 3pt from Newcastle but settled for a draw to get 1pt,

Do you think this match will be as interesting as there match with Newcastle United?, however is been a while we saw Liverpool at the first position on both the premier League and the champions League at the same time, though the hort time of both leagues is very near so I hope they would not backslide, after wining Girona this time they will have 17 points but Inter Milan may not be fortunate today because Bayern Leverkusen can resist them, Atalanta and Real Madrid also have match today, however it seems Liverpool can even have more cup this season because I'm confident that EFL cup is for them because they will send Southampton home on this Quarter finals they would be playing soon.

[HajiBagi]

Vini Jr would be a very big boost for real Madrid in their UCL match against Atlanta. The Madrid team hasn't been in Great form even if they had Vini Jr in all those matches but they still struggle and a loss to Atlanta may spell doom for them in the UCL this season.

Real Madrid are not the team they were last season on my opinion, the introduction of kylian Mbappe hasn't really beared fruit. The UCL this season also put every team to the test, there is no luck this time around and I think previously real Madrid has had some very easy group stage teams that always ended up with them qualifying. This new UCL format is there to test them and every other team.

The game of Atlanta against Real Madrid will be very tough because Atlanta is in good shape this season in both the Champion League and Interlian League, Real Madrid, on the other hand, has not been playing well in the Champion League and La Liga League this season and Real Madrid will take this match very important to have a point in other to be able to Qualify for Champion League next stage if Real Madrid loses this game against Atlanta it will be very difficult for them to qualify for champion league next round.

Real Madrid and Atlanta played in Super Cup and Real Madrid won the match by scoring two goals but Atlanta's current performance is better than when Real Madrid played against them in the Super Cup and it will be very difficult to defeat Atlanta in their stadium, no one can predict this match has both teams will want to win the match, but in this Match Real Madrid will want to win the match by all means.

[mammusu]

The return of Vini and Rodrygo has helped improve Real Madrid attack a little, but Ancelotti has not been able to fully overcome the defense due to several key players being injured. Real Madrid are on a mission to end their two-game winless streak in the Champions League, but the problem is they will face an opponent who is very productive and disciplined in guarding their defensive area. They really need a win to stay in the UCL playoff zone, while Atalanta are still unbeaten in 5 league phase matches, seeing Atalanta's very consistent performance, it is certainly not an easy matter for Real Madrid to win.

Atalanta are in very good shape, in addition to good results in the Champions League, they also look at the table in Serie A, so their achievements are definitely not accidental. And given Real's problems in defense, I think Atalanta will score today, maybe even not lose, but on the other hand, Real really needs a win, so I think there can be many goals in this match and I hope Real does not lose.

The return of Rodrygo and Vinicius could be a motivations and a morale booster for Madrid, although I don't think the presence of these two players can guarantee that Madrid will be able to beat Atalanta in match later, because I think at the moment weak defence is the main problem from madrid, so with a sharp attack line but without strong defensive support, of course it is difficult for them to face strong attacks from Atalanta in tha match, so far Atalanta is a consistent team not only in Serie A, but in the UCL so far  their is very strong and I think Madrid will get a big challenge to get 3 points in the match later.

I have two matches for today. I think Brest will beat PSV on their home field.
Even though Brest has been out of form in their own league at times, they are in good form in the Champions League and Psv is a team equal to them.
My second match is Bruges, Sprortin beat Lisbon at home.
The decline began after Amorim in Lisbon.
I think this coupon will be taught as a lesson in betting schools.
The rates are also very good.
Let's see if it will hold up?

[len01]

• Atalanta vs Real Madrid (draw or Madrid win)
• Shakhtar vs Bayern Munich (Munich over 2.5)
• Leverkusen vs Inter Milan (draw)
• Girona vs Liverpool (Liverpool win)
• Salzburg vs PSG (PSG win)

From today's matches, I only focus on a few matches and hope that there will be no surprises in this match. And I also hope that Madrid match later can end with a satisfactory result or at least end in a draw as a good result. I believe that even though Madrid performance this time has decreased, it is difficult to beat Madrid even though they are only guests at Atalanta home.

~snip~

Inter Milan is in second place with 4 win and 1 draw, while Leverkusen is in 6th place with 3 win 1 draw and 1 loss, from all this we can conclude that Inter Milan is much better than Leverkusen in UCL but still they can't underestimate Leverkusen because this match takes place in BayArena which is Leverkusen home ground.
By playing at home it is still possible for Leverkusen to perform well at least holding draw and sharing points, it won't be really easy for Inter Milan to beat Leverkusen unless Leverkusen game is bad later.
Leverkusen chance of winning are small as are Inter Milan but we can take BTTS if we are going to bet on this match.

Quite a difficult game to predict because these two clubs are in a good form and have similar strengths. However, Leverkusen playing at home is an additional advantage to them but if they don't make proper use of their chances, Inter will win the  game. This is because Inter is good at defense and would want to try their possible best to see how they can win Leverkusen away from home to continue their winning streak.

If I bet would not take Inter Milan as the favorite to win the match, you mentioned Inter Milan has good defense but you forgot to look at Leverkusen who also has pretty good defense and their only biggest defeat was against Liverpool and that understandable because Liverpool are in full strength right now.
My prediction is still the match could very well be 1 - 1 or 2 - 2 draw because Inter Milan and Leverkusen also have fairly sharp front line proportion, many people are curious about how the Leverkusen vs Inter Milan match will go today because this meeting is categorized as big match.

[AprilioMP]

Honestly I still think with Kroos retired and Modric who is past his prime Real Madrid has a big problem in creativity in creating chances. I think Mbappe is still the best player in the world right now and Real Madrid has a better striker than last season. However, without a midfielder like Kroos Madrid seems to have lost its touch. I can see how Kroos made accurate passes that made Vini and Bellingham impressive last season. I think I will pick Atalanta to win the match. They can try to emulate how AC Milan beat Real Madrid in the previous match.

Valverde must learn a lot from Luca Modric in terms of playing the role of an attack organizer to make Real Madrid's front line able to do a lot when in the opponent's defense area.
The opponent that Real Madrid will face tonight (early morning) according to our local time zone is Atalanta who is in good form. In the domestic league, Atalanta's achievements are very good and after beating Napoli, Atalanta's position is now in 1st place.

Recorded for 11 matches, Atalanta has never experienced defeat. This impressive record must be considered by Real Madrid because Real Madrid in the Champions League is ranked 24th which is the final position of the playoff zone. Real Madrid should not carry out this work only on Mbappe because Mbappe cannot work alone.

Before Mbappe joined Real Madrid, many Real Madrid fans hoped that if Mbappe joined Real Madrid, the team would perform much better in La Liga and the Champions League and be a much stronger team. But Mbappe has yet to strengthen Real Madrid with his performances after he joined the team. Observing Mbappe's current performances, many have commented that he may not have adapted to his new club yet, which is why he has yet to deliver his best performances. But almost a few months have passed since Mbappe joined Real Madrid.

Maybe during this time he will quickly make good friends with all the members of the new club and try to give his best performance. He missed two penalties in a row a few days ago, which made many Madrid fans even more frustrated.

Yes before Kylian Mbappe joined Real Madrid many fans thought he would help team play much better in La Liga and in Champions League. But since he arrived Mbappe has not played as well as everyone hoped. Maybe he is still getting used to his new team and city but it has been few months now and fans are getting impatient. When he recently missed two penalties in row it made fans even more frustrated. Now it is time for Mbappe to start playing really well and showing everyone why he is such great player.

Now?
Or we can see Madrid again unstable because during Mbappe and Vini still can't play compact so don't expect Madrid to show the best game. I thought they were too much about Mbappe because the fact was he wasn't too great? This is supported by Mbappe who feels proud to play with Messi and feels easier when using PSG. Means he if without getting the ball from Messi and Neymar can't do anything?

Madrid fans must realize that the game will be more stable if Mbappe is on the bench for a while.

The odds for the Atalanta - Real Madrid game look quite close...    I think it could be worth betting on Atalanta to win @2.70 here. It is a reasonable risk to take at this point honestly. I'm saying it even if Vinicius Junior is back. Because Atalanta have just no mercy on their opponents recently. They have kept a long winning streak so far. They won in big games among them too.

On the other hand, Real Madrid seem much more unreliable. They win in one game and lose points in another. As the game is in Italy as well I believe it is worth taking the risk.

It's now Atalanta (2.60) - (2.65) Madrid

The odds is not giving me confident to pick which club to win the game. Betting on Atalanta is still worthy enough, but they're so close to the Real Madrid. It seems to me this is a signal if a fierce battle will happen soon. The away team potentially to take three points and this is a very risky to bet on 1x2 Atalanta.

I would pick BTTS or Total Over 2.5, though the odds offered by these choices are  small, but most likely to happen.

I'm concerning about the comeback of Vini to the squad. He has been Madrid's key player and gonna help his club to play better. That's why i think away team could steal three points from Atalanta.

[Inwestour]

The return of Rodrygo and Vinicius could be a motivations and a morale booster for Madrid, although I don't think the presence of these two players can guarantee that Madrid will be able to beat Atalanta in match later, because I think at the moment weak defence is the main problem from madrid, so with a sharp attack line but without strong defensive support, of course it is difficult for them to face strong attacks from Atalanta in tha match, so far Atalanta is a consistent team not only in Serie A, but in the UCL so far  their is very strong and I think Madrid will get a big challenge to get 3 points in the match later.

It seems that Gasparini has found the reason why Atalanta has not been playing consistently this season, they are doing well so far, but don't forget that Real beat Atalanta at the beginning of the season in the Super Cup, and they left them no chance. Yes, Atalanta has a good attack, but Real is not worse, Real has problems with defenders, but Atalanta also has not the best defense, so I prefer Real.

[reagansimms]

Atalanta is among the worst opponents you would want to be facing in Real Madrid's situation. They have won their last 9 consecutive games and didn't lose a game like forever. The odds aren't worth a bet I guess because the bookmakers have long realized that this is a 50/50 game in a best case scenario for Real Madrid. I think Atalanta has an advantage here. AC Milan now literally had no chance to beat Atalanta. They are not playing their best, but still when AC Milan can only have 2 shots on target in the whole game, that's not a lot.

Since Atalanta is one of the best counter attack teams currently and Real Madrid has to win that game because another loss would put them at serious risk in the Champions League, I think this is a game that perfectly plays into Atalanta's cards.

In the last meeting between the two teams in the European Super Cup, Real Madrid managed to beat Atalanta with a score of 2-0. Now the condition of both teams is very different, Atalanta is in the right momentum, Gian Piero Gasperini managed to lead his team without defeat in the last 14 matches, even winning the last 9 matches in a row. Meanwhile, Madrid are in poor form, they have only managed 4 wins and 4 losses in their last 8 matches.

In my opinion, this will be a different match than the last European Super Cup. In addition, Real Madrid are looking for a win to maintain their chances of qualifying for the last 16 through the play-offs, but Atalanta are favorites in this game because they will act as hosts and have the momentum of being unbeaten in the last 14 matches.

[Polkeins]

Vini Jr would be a very big boost for real Madrid in their UCL match against Atlanta. The Madrid team hasn't been in Great form even if they had Vini Jr in all those matches but they still struggle and a loss to Atlanta may spell doom for them in the UCL this season.

Real Madrid are not the team they were last season on my opinion, the introduction of kylian Mbappe hasn't really beared fruit. The UCL this season also put every team to the test, there is no luck this time around and I think previously real Madrid has had some very easy group stage teams that always ended up with them qualifying. This new UCL format is there to test them and every other team.

Even without Vinicius, Real Madrid is still one of the strongest teams at the moment and Bellingham is still playing great and can single-handedly make a result like in the last match against Girona, when he scored such an important goal for Real and after that Girona offered almost no resistance.
The odds on Real's victory are 2.6 and it's been a long time since there were such odds and if you combine it with Liverpool's victory with odds of 1.45, you can get a very good final odds.

Atatalanta have a good streak of games without defeat, but Real are known for being able to beat any team that seems impossible to beat, like Manchester City last season.

[MK-74]

There are 2 matches I will watch tonight.
Girona - Liverpool and Brest - PSV.

Liverpool continues without losing points and if they win this match, they will make it 6 out of 6 and have 18 points.

Brest are bad in their own league but they made a good start here.
PSV made a great comeback in the Shakhtar match and won the match 3-2, it was a very enjoyable match, everything happened after the 87th minute.
PSV is the favorite of this match.

[Catenaccio]

Even without Vinicius, Real Madrid is still one of the strongest teams at the moment and Bellingham is still playing great and can single-handedly make a result like in the last match against Girona, when he scored such an important goal for Real and after that Girona offered almost no resistance.

Real Madrid are the most successful club in Champions League and their winning mentality here is undeniable. In Champions League, other clubs have to be fearful when playing with Real Madrid and they only can know that they win after the final whistle of the referee. Many times, Real Madrid made amazing and unbelievable comebacks to end matches with either draws or wins after letting their opponents leading too far with two or three goals.

Vinicius will help Real Madrid having more powerful, flexible and dangerous attacks that can help them beating Atalanta, that are certainly not an easy opponent.

Atatalanta have a good streak of games without defeat, but Real are known for being able to beat any team that seems impossible to beat, like Manchester City last season.

Atalanta are threats of every club in this season, and they proved that their Europa League title and a big win in that final against Leverkusen are not lucky. They are strong, play well and deserve that title, and in this season they are playing even better than last season performances.

Vini Jr would be a very big boost for real Madrid in their UCL match against Atlanta. The Madrid team hasn't been in Great form even if they had Vini Jr in all those matches but they still struggle and a loss to Atlanta may spell doom for them in the UCL this season.

The odds on Real's victory are 2.6 and it's been a long time since there were such odds and if you combine it with Liverpool's victory with odds of 1.45, you can get a very good final odds.

Atatalanta have a good streak of games without defeat, but Real are known for being able to beat any team that seems impossible to beat, like Manchester City last season.

Odds @2.6 for Real Madrid's victory is quite risky to bet on, I think we shouldn't be tempted just because we see the odds for betting options.
Now let's be realistic, seeing the strength of both teams in the last few matches, there is clearly a difference in performance between Atalanta and Real Madrid right now, Atalanta who are in their best form and Real Madrid who are slumping and have not been able to fully recover until now.

Atalanta will play at home, so I think they have a greater percentage of being able to win the match or hold Real Madrid to a draw.

And for Vinicius' absence, it is indeed very influential, it must be admitted because Mbappe cannot fill the void that exists and for Bellingham he has a different position and task, so you can't just rely on Bellingham to cover the void in the front line left by Vinicius.

[Unsoldier]

Today's Champions League fixtures are as follows:

- Dinamo Zagreb vs Celtic 
- Girona vs Liverpool 
- Brest vs Shakhtar Donetsk 
- PSV vs Bayern Munich 
- Club Brugge vs Red Bull Salzburg 
- Sporting vs PSG 
- RB Leipzig vs Aston Villa 
- Bayer Leverkusen vs Inter Milan 
- Atalanta vs Real Madrid 

I believe the most-watched match will be Atalanta vs Real Madrid, but personally, I'll be tuning in to Bayer Leverkusen vs Inter Milan. In my opinion, both teams have the potential to make it at least to the semifinals of the tournament.
