UEFA Champions League 2025/26 Season

[pusaka]

Of all the matches played, I think the most exciting match today was Dortmund vs. Juventus. Their style of play, their exchange of attacks, and the flurry of goals capped a thrilling encounter, resulting in a 4-4 draw.

Most of Dortmund's goals came from outside the penalty area. They relied on their shooting accuracy, which was impressive. Even more impressive was the crucial moments in the final seconds of the match for Juventus to equalize.

A particularly tense and painful moment for Borussia Dortmund came in stoppage time in the second half, as the two goals conceded came in crucial minutes.

Honestly, I wasn't expecting much with so little time remaining and Juventus trailing by two goals. However, Juventus managed to show something good, while Borussia Dortmund lost their concentration slightly, leading to their disappointment, only coming away with one point. Conversely, although they didn't win, Juventus managed to avoid defeat in this match.

Is this type of promo only available for single bets, or is it also allowed in combo bets? That’s nice promo by whichever sportsbook is offering it.
It’s rare to see a situation where favorite team to win goes 2-0 up but still ends up losing, especially in the UEFA Champions League that very rare.. In the prediction pool I joined, everyone picked Benfica to win and nobody predicted them to lose. Imagine having home advantage, leading 2-0 in the first 20 minutes of the first half, and then still losing the game. lol

It's not a type of promo but a new option that started in most bookies, some of the bookies has 1Up option and 2Up options, the 2Up option is just slightly lower that the straight win the team you intended to bank on. As much as the option look good it really isn't easy to win from also just like every other options. When ever I go to watch match in a bet shop, I do see people playing the option and they still cry about it.

The Tottenham vs Villarreal match was just as exciting, in my opinion, even though there weren't many goals scored. Both clubs showed their best performance in that match. But, of course, in any match, there will always be winners and lost, and sometimes a draw. In the Tottenham vs Villarreal match, Tottenham won with a score of 1-0. Tottenham fans were obviously very happy because their team won. Now, Tottenham has successfully secured 3 points in their first match, which will undoubtedly be a great boost for Tottenham to be more motivated in upcoming matches.

This game makes me to understand that Tottenham people know before in the last season is different from Tottenham we are seeing in this season, because the way they play to make sure they win  any game without allowing the game to be draw. Tottenham performance is what make them to win yesterday game if you watch that game from the beginning till the end, because Villarreal try all their best to beat Tottenham or equalize the goal, but Tottenham defenders did not allow such mistakes to happen for Villarreal.

After all the clubs  first game, we will now know the clubs that are more stronger in this UEFA champions league, because there is no how those clubs that won their first game will still win their next game.

There was a transformation in Tottenham Hotspur football team this season, and it is expected Tottenham Hotspur would play better this season, so i was not even surprised Tottenham Hotspur defeated Villarreal in their first Champions League match. Tottenham Hotspur performance is commendable this season; we can see the evidence in the 4 Premier League matches they have played so far.  The first round matches of the Champions League is not enough to determine the teams that are more stronger because a team can lose their first Champions League match and still go ahead to win the Champions League trophy.

Unfortunately, this is not the first time we've seen Tottenham Hotspur in this kind of situation, remember they won the Europa League, so it's expected that they show some level of presence in this competition, however I still don't see them as a threat yet, Tottenham Hotspur is the kind of club i would easily say, they might not stand the test of time when the going gets tough. They've been doing pretty well in the premier league too, which is actually commendable, but the champions League is where the crocodiles 🐊 swims, the question is how far can Tottenham survive the terrain.

The way Arsenal plays football, I won't be surprised to see them go trophyless again this season. They are too pragmatic when they play a good team. They don't take the game to the opponents. It was evident in their last game, against Liverpool. Im not saying they should abandon the defence but they should be more daring and attack teams. there is a way to play football and protect you defence while also attacking your opponents.

You're right about that, it's like they suddenly became afraid of their opponent and then they didn't return to Arca I'd say things are strange with this team Sometimes you can't be so constant in a game , I understand that you have to be very Cautious , but you have to be explosive. Football is faster now, with technical speed. Slow games Generally lose , That's what happened to Anclotti's Madrid for playing so passively.

Tomorrow morning in my country, there are too many UCL matches I want to watch.
Bayern Munich vs Chelsea
Liverpool vs Atletico
PSG vs Atalanta
What are your predictions? I want to place a bet. At least I can take advantage of this moment so I don't lose. I'll probably bet on the home team to win with odds of 1.65. Or maybe I need to add four other UCL matches. But I'm a little hesitant because my money is limited.

I think Liverpool and PSG would win, but I cannot predict the match between Bayern and Chelsea. If it were last season, I would have certainly picked Bayern Munich. However, the timing is different. Chelsea have improved a lot since they signed Joao Pedro, Delap, etc. I know most of these players may not have Champions League experience, but I'm sure they can rise to the test, like they did against PSG in the FCWC final. So I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

[Kaliandra]

Chelsea will be playing against Bayern, and I'm really curious about Chelsea's strength in the upcoming match. Will Chelsea be able to defeat Bayern or not? However, I have a feeling that Chelsea will win the match, and I'm going to bet on Chelsea's victory. I want to know if you guys have the same prediction as me. What I remember is that their last meeting in the Champions League was a long time ago, in 2020, when Chelsea lost to Bayern with a score of 4-1. I predict that in the upcoming match, Chelsea will try to get revenge because they definitely want to win.

PSG and Atalanta will also play later, and we will definitely see the reigning Champions League champions face off against Atalanta. I think PSG will beat Atalanta because I see that the current Atalanta is different from before, as I notice their performance has declined slightly. So I will bet on PSG’s victory in the upcoming match. But of course, we’ll have to wait and see what happens because sometimes PSG might lose or win. However, if PSG ends up losing, it will certainly disappoint PSG fans because PSG didn’t meet their expectations.

It was very exciting to watch the Arsenal vs Bilbao match because both teams can truly be considered strong teams, but it was certainly unfortunate that Bilbao was unable to score a single goal against Arsenal because Arsenal's defense was really good, which certainly made it difficult for Bilbao's players to score.

Arteta certainly devised an excellent strategy for this match, which ultimately put Bilbao under pressure, leading to Bilbao's defeat by Arsenal, conceding two goals from Martinelli and Trossard. Bilbao must now acknowledge that Arsenal is clearly superior and accept that Arsenal has taken the three points. Arsenal started this season well, and Arsenal fans certainly want the team to perform consistently and win, ultimately becoming champions. Now, Arsenal must prepare again for their next matches in the Premier League and the Champions League, with Olympiakos set to be Arsenal's next opponent in the Champions League. What do you think will happen? Will Arsenal win against Olympiakos or not?

People believe that Arsenal are cruising, but I do not buy into to the "clearly superior" talk yet. First half was even - 62% possession with just one shot on target, Bilbao were in fact the more threatening side. Provided Gorosabel fails to get that tackle on Eze or Gyokeres' header is an inch lower, it is another story. This entire situation backfired due to substitutions rather than Arsenal being overpowering. It is a strength and a red flag at the same time. Can you always rely on the bench to bail you out?

Olympiacos is the ideal trial for that. They are inconsistent, yet when they sense blood in Europe, they have taken down greater names than Arsenal - Madrid, United, Liverpool. They are cross-heavy, cross-direct which is precisely the type of team that can hurt Arsenal assuming they do allow too many corners to be crossed through (Bilbao had 3, Arsenal only 1 despite all that control - the smallest of details, but that is how Olympiacos score). I believe personally that if Arteta becomes complacent, we may see a shock result, Olympiacos at Karaiskakis is no joke. I will say Arsenal to win, in the same aggression which they showed against Bilbao in the last 20 minutes, but not in the same manner in which they were playing in the first 70

Chelsea have improved a lot since they signed Joao Pedro, Delap, etc. I know most of these players may not have Champions League experience, but I'm sure they can rise to the test, like they did against PSG in the FCWC final. So I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Liverpool will have no trouble at all in this game, not only because Atletico performance has declined drastically, but they will also be playing in front of their own fans. PSG is also the same as Liverpool, Luis Enrique squad will easily dominate the match because Atalanta quality is still below their standards.

Facing Chelsea will certainly not be easy for Bayern Munich, Enzo Maresca success in winning the League Conference trophy and the Club World Cup has made the management not hesitate to spend large amounts of money to strengthen the team. Chelsea are now much stronger than they were last season, and they can't be underestimated in this tournament. I predict this match will end in a draw. A 0-0 scoreline is certainly unlikely, as both teams have very sharp attacking lines. A 1-1 or 2-2 draw is likely.

[POPOLUV]

Looking at todays lineup in round 1 of the champions League, I'm seeing the between Bayern Munich vs Chelsea to be very tough one which I'm suspecting that both teams to score each others, and also i believe that in football everything is possible, which i know that all the fans of Chelsea football club will be present watching their club playing final in first round of the champions league tournament because Bayern Munich is a very tough club as far as champions league is concerned, so if by preventure Chelsea need to win Bayern Munich what they need to do is bring their best of skills and strategies which they can use to penetrate the 18 box of Bayern Munich if not, I'm seeing Bayern Munich winning the match tonight.

However, Juventus managed to show something good, while Borussia Dortmund lost their concentration slightly, leading to their disappointment, only coming away with one point. Conversely, although they didn't win, Juventus managed to avoid defeat in this match.

It would be incredibly painful for Dortmund, as those final minutes were what cost them their victory. Worse still, those two goals were scored just two minutes apart after the third goal was scored to secure the fourth. It was a truly crazy match this week.

Indeed, no one could have imagined how Dortmund could have suffered such a setback in this match.

[verdinio]

The Juventus vs Bayern match was very exciting because we saw both teams raply goals. Of course, we saw that Juventus was very ambitious to win, as was Bayern. The 4-4 score that resulted from the match was certainly extraordinary and very entertaining for me because it was such an exciting match. Juventus, despite trailing by two goals, managed to equalize, resulting in a 4-4 draw. Both teams must now settle for one point each. Did you find the match entertaining?

Yes, you are right.The Juventus vs Bayern match was exciting. They fought very well to stay ahead in the points table. Both teams were very aggressive throughout the match. Even though Juventus were 2 goals behind, their morale did not weaken. On the contrary, their aggression increased. If Bayern's defense had been a little weaker, Juventus would have taken control of the match. As the game progressed, the attacks of both teams became stronger and more precise. The game ended in a 4-4 draw. Which makes me very happy.

If the other matches are as exciting as this match, I think it will be a great season.

You're wrong, Juventus didn't play against Bayern, they played against Dortmund, so it seems you didn't watch the game and only saw the final score. Besides, Bayern Munich is playing against Chelsea today. You seem confident discussing it, but unfortunately it's not Bayern. 

This match was truly exceptional, I have to say that nothing was really missing, full of twists and turns, I really enjoyed it, I have to say that both teams played on the open pitch and did not hold back, a good football match as it should be, clearly the Juventus defence could have done much better than what it did

There was nothing appealing about Tottenham performance against Villarreal in that 1:0 win they had. Transformational is too big a word to use in describing this Tottenham team and we would only know about this in confirmation when they meet a team of their size and equal match. After that lucky error resulting goal from the Villarreal goalkeeper I thought Tottenham would add more goals to the scoresheet but they were busy protecting their 1 goal and was nowhere in dominating the game. I wouldn't be surprised they lose when they play against a better team because they won't be lucky to get a narrow win.

It was evident in their last game, against Liverpool. Im not saying they should abandon the defence but they should be more daring and attack teams. there is a way to play football and protect you defence while also attacking your opponents.

This is a clear point stated, definitely the defense team is so strong and needed for a tough match I think this is the reason Arsenal invested so much on defenders. I always observed when Arsenal play for example the match against Liverpool honestly they didn’t do justice, Arteta also made a mistake in terms of setting the players so pushing the ball forward was a big problem for the team. I will not be surprised if they go trophy less this season again even with top best players, having the players is never a problem rather putting a good work to action seems difficult with the gunners, I lost all hope because they performed poorly during the first half all thanks to Martinelli and Trossard.

Just before we all concluded that the Juventus x Dortmund match was not going to produce goals subsequent to the first half that finished in a deadlock, the two teams came back into the second half producing 8 goals in a frenzy way. It turned to become the match with the most goals in the champions league in the tuesday night matches.

I watched the match with my younger bros, it was boring when we watched the first half, both teams made a lot of attacks but neither of them scored a goal. After the first half, I told my little bros to go to bed, but he insisted we keep watching. In the second half, a tsunami of goals struck, completely surprising us.

However, if PSG ends up losing, it will certainly disappoint PSG fans because PSG didn’t meet their expectations.

Chelsea's defensive setup will likely be the determining factor if they can get anything from the game against Bayern. They need to be at alert because of Harry Kane. With the late goal conceded against Brentford, I don't think Chelsea can get anything against Bayern. Going with a Bayern win.

So I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

I agree with your predictions with I am expecting good number of goals in Bayern Munich vs Chelsea just because of this I have my own parlay with Liverpool and PSG ML and Bayern Munich vs Chelsea both teams to score.

Few other games are also exciting but having too many teams in parlay always increase risk just because of this staying with them is giving some good chance of win for tonight. Last night Benfica kills all which was really heartbroken because firstly I was sure about over 2.5 or btts but at the end have Benfica -1.5 kills all days best end, but today these games are looking much better and easy to win.

I've never seen such a game filled with tense momentum this season other than last season where we get to watch the best performing actions of Barcelona and Inter Milan in the UCL semi final. The Juventus vs Borrusia Dortmund game was one of the best UCL games yesterday's night. An entertaining game that require big actions and luckily enough, the Old lady's didn't lose points on their home ground.

Entertaining and none of us expected a thrilling 8 goals to be scored in the game not after Dortmund nailed the hosts and at injury time, we watch the upturn comeback of Juventus as they refuse to accept defeat and settle for shared points instead.

It still surprises me to see that after playing 0:0 in the first half Juventus and Dortmund could end up scoring up to 8 goals in the second half it was a different game for them no one believed that goals will be scored in the game due to the way the teams were playing and defending but football reminded us once again that in the game anything is possible and the highest number of goals for the night and the 4:4 draw will be something we may not see throughout the group stages again.  It was a good game between Juventus and Dortmund no team wanted to give up that's why the motivation was in the teams to equalize when any team scored.
