UEFA Champions League 2025/26 Season

These are not bad picks at all. PSG square off against Bayern Munich next and that should be a cracking game of football. The both teams have a 100% record up until now, but that ends for one team after that game or for both of them if it ends in a draw. I am expecting more twists and turns in this league phase, but most of the teams in your pick, if not all, would qualify automatically for the round of 16.

You're definitely right I think that one team is definitely lose in this game because I don't see this game ending up in a draw . Normally games like is when you gets to see the quality of a team because both teams are going to be stressed and the weakness and strength of each of the teams will be seen.this game will showcase class and quality because we will be seeing virtually the best scoring sides in Europe right now because both Bayern munich and PSG are in the Best of forms.



I see a lot of goals in this game been produced in this game. Both teams can punish the other team when presented with the opportunity so the defense of the two teams should live up to the expectations by stepping up their game, in making sure that they don't conceed much goals.

[Distraction]

What are bookmakers smoking?
The only thing that seems reasonable here is that Arsenal and Bayern have increased their chances. Barcelona's chances haven't changed much, even though they play weak even when they win (for example, against Girona). What about Liverpool?! Liverpool is in dire straits, but the bookmakers are simply ignoring it. Real Madrid is somehow also ignored, although it demonstrates that it can solve any problem.

Hard to find sense in bookies' choices mate.    They are simply overlooking some important points about these teams. They don't catch up with the recent matches well or not? Most of us must be thinking these odds aren't fair.

Barcelona are given nearly the same chances just because what, they scored 6 against Olympiacos? Real Madrid should be treated the same as Bayern Munich also, definitely. Xabi Alonso is doing a really nice work there which shouldn't be underrated.

[slapper]

If you look at Liverpool's situation in the domestic league it is indeed bad and the sign must have seen from there too and assumed that Real Madrid would easily win the match, but we don't know whether Arne Slot is pretending or indeed they have problems with their team so that they can experience successive defeats like that, and that's what we can say that Liverpool and Real Madrid are not necessarily going smoothly as expected.

Liverpool have been performing  poorly in several matches. The squad is strong but their performance is weak. Even then , it cannot be said that Madrid will win easily against this squad. Liverpool has the ability  to perform well. There are many star players in their squad. Before  facing madrid , Liverpool will play against Crystal palace and Aston villa. Two very strong opponents. If Liverpool can play well in these two matches, then I believe we will see a better performance from Liverpool against Madrid as well.

It is generous to call this a strong squad at the moment. They have used half a billion quid and somehow they look worse than they were last season

Those so-called star players you are talking about? Wirtz, Isak, Ekitike, none of them have scored a single goal in the league. Not one. And Salah was unseen except that consolation at Brentford. And Palace have already won over Liverpool THRice in a row. They've got our number. Villa has closed Man City with the same defensive formation that has been burying us all month. These are not tune-up games, these are landmines




In the press conference, Slot literally confessed: "We have not discovered an answer yet". Now your manager is saying that out loud, you know it is bad. And they are meant to figure it out, magically, in six days before they have to confront a Madrid side with Mbappe on fire and, incidentally, Trent who knows at least every single one of our frailties?

I want to believe. I really do. But I have seen this very film four times straight through, and it always finishes the same way

[Ryu_Ar1]

The reason that can be accepted now is that their performance sometimes cannot be controlled due to the new players who are still not fully able to adapt well.
Wirtz in midfield is still not showing his proportions as an expensive player for Liverpool, as well as Isak in their attack. Ekitike is actually a little better than Isak and Wirtz but his performance is still mediocre at the moment which makes Liverpool still unable to get out of their current zone.

Slot should be aware of this condition and if he doesn't handle it quickly, it could interfere with his position as coach because sooner or later when his performance does not change and actually decreases, he could be affected and lose his position as coach.

Wirtz and other players are extraordinary players who can do whatever they want on the pitch but they need understanding with others.
this thing hasn't happened yet but the lieveprool is not yet able to fully exploit all the talents they have

His performance is still not solid which makes Liverpool's situation a little more difficult. When talking about capacity, maybe Wirtz is currently still one of the young players who has potential especially after his slick performance at Leverkusen but in the end this situation cannot be used as a benchmark for now especially when at Liverpool because Wirtz still cannot make some breakthroughs here.

It may be true that they need understanding and support but in the end this situation could be worse if in the end Wirtz still cannot show a good situation until now because the reason for adaptation could be very difficult to accept later for some fans.
We saw Darwin last season who eventually went to the SPL and if the same situation happens for Wirtz where he still can't develop himself then it could be very difficult in the end.

[BRINIRHA]

In fact, this match will be very difficult to predict. Real Madrid currently looks consistent compared to last season. Conversely, Liverpool currently looks inconsistent compared to last season. However, both teams are still almost equal when they're at their best. And we know this match will certainly be like a final for both teams. This will also be a match that tests the strength of each team. It's also about prestige and reputation. So both teams will really give everything they have for this match.

And perhaps a good chance is to hope for both teams to score. And I'm quite confident that will happen. And there will probably be more than two goals.

Picking both teams to score might be a better option. Or perhaps I'm personally starting to think that picking Real Madrid would be better.

Just look at what happened to Liverpool in their current match against Crystal Palace in the EFL Cup. Liverpool conceded two goals to Crystal Palace in the first half. And I'm not confident they can respond in the second half. Based on the match statistics, Crystal Palace had a slight advantage in the number of shots on target. Furthermore, Liverpool didn't have a significant advantage over Crystal Palace in this match. So, I think facing Real Madrid in this situation will be truly difficult for Liverpool.

[Zaguru12]

Arne Slot has a lot to improve on. Fans are starting to realize that the manager isn't fully intelligent in harnessing the potential of players. Just look at how some of the players he brought in during his time haven't fully adapted to his playing style. I doubt he's as competent as we thought, because last season's success wasn't entirely his fault, but also inseparable from Jurgen Klopp, who inherited a different tradition and spirit. This season could be a testament to Arne Slot's abilities, and if he fails to take Liverpool to a higher level, then he's not the manager we envisioned.

First of all we also have to give him credit even if he actually inherited a good squad and still sticked to playing the same pattern I think it wasn’t easy to actually execute that such perfectly as he did but regardless of whether the pattern he won with last season was his or not I think he definitely was bound to have tough times this season not because he bought in new players alone but because the expectations set for him has raised so high. In his first few games last season he was heavily ruled out because he was new and he managed to actually win the league.

Right now he is been treated as a title contenders and as such a good manager too so any team coming against will prepare very differently and that’s why you see him complaining that managers twerk formation for him because they are simply playing against the English champions, so Arne Slot should stop sulking and simply just get the team back on for.

For the champions league fixtures of match day 4, the match between Real Madrid and Liverpool, for my own personal opinion and predictions, I'm definitely going for Real Madrid as they are the most favorite to win that game. If we look at both teams by statistics we will come to discover that real Madrid are the upper team to get the win in that game. Although it is a champions league game and we know that anything can literally happen as champions league fixtures are very expensive at some times to predict.

Liverpool are losing 2-0 and it was very predictable for me given the formation he used against a team like Crystal Palace that has a good record against them and even losing the last head to head recently by 2 goals to 1 with Liverpool displaying a very disappointing performance.

This match is a deciding game for Liverpool in the competition and they have not shown a sign of competition or communication on the pitch which has being really discouraging.

The fact that the match will be played in England is an advantage for Liverpool. I think Real Madrid may struggle a bit more on the road. They conceded five goals against Atletico Madrid. Even if Liverpool don't lose on the road, they can still lose. Don't let Liverpool's poor performance fool, they have a truly quality squad and can win against Real Madrid.

[Dzwaafu11]

Liverpool will definitely going to win that match to increase their points, other teams may have defeated Liverpool in this season but Liverpool will not allow the same mistakes to continue to happen, than to use their next match to prove to people. Frankfurt  team have solid defenders that will make Liverpool strikers to find it difficult to score goals, but if Liverpool is well prepared before meeting Frankfurt, Liverpool will destroy their plan to achieve victory. If Liverpool can win this match, there is no doubt about Real Madrid because Real Madrid too is still experiencing some challenges that will make Liverpool to defeat them as usual.

I think it will be an interesting match against Real Madrid, I also think they will work hard to win, but I'm not sure of the certainty of victory.
Despite this less performing period, Real Madrid is still a team to be feared.

Liverpool's last matches were beautiful to watch, especially the 22/10 against Eintracht, 5 goals practically one behind the other.

Liverpool are already getting back stronger. As I said earlier, they will do everything possible to see that their performance is back, because they were the winner last season. They won’t drop points this season because they will want to repeat the same thing as last season this season, so definitely they will do everything to get back.

I’m not surprised seeing them like this; to me, they are getting better than how they were performing in some matches early in the season.

They’ve realised their mistake, and they won’t repeat it again, although for Real Madrid’s performance, I can’t really say anything because they still don’t have stable performance. I think they are still experiencing some hard times that need to be improved before getting a good result.

Liverpool goalkeeper Woodman prevented Liverpool from conceding any more goals. The match is still in progress, but Crystal could have scored four already. While it might seem strange to say Liverpool were lucky to concede two, that's precisely the case.

I'm not sure what this squad can do in the Champions League anymore. They're getting worse with every match.

Let just say that match will definitely be an interesting one to watch. Well the last time real Madrid played with Liverpool they lost and this is also a fact that real Madrid will never allowed that to happen again, no matter the ground or at Liverpool home, in them it is definitely a revenge trust me, I'm not saying that real Madrid will definitely have an easy win though, but we all are going to witness the fight between this two teams, the highest we can expect from them is a draw and that is just the fact to conclude with.
Liverpool are also struggling to have a win and so it is also a challenge to have that win either, let's just wait and see the outcome.

You don't need to go further with your explanation as to why you choose Real Madrid as the favourite to win in the game by now everyone knows that Liverpool defeating Frankfurt was because Frankfurt isn't in good shape this season of Liverpool face Real Madrid with their current poor form they can only beg for Real Madrid not to score up to 4 goals because Liverpool is not doing well this season. Liverpool may try to prove that the champions League is different from the league games but beating Real Madrid for them will be a thing of miracles because their performance this season doesn't reflect on the number of signings they made if something is not down in the team they will become too easy to be defeated by all the teams.

I think this is just the basic fact. The team spent so well to be humiliated by so many teams. Sometimes it marvels me as I wonder how they where one of the teams with the most expensive signing in the premier league this season, as we all expected them to perform more than any other team. But as the case may be, they are at one of their worst performance. Well it is a game of win, lose or a draw. One advantage I think Liverpool are having is the fact that they are playing at home and I think the fans have the room to chant and back them up. So definitely that match will be an interesting one to watch.

These are not bad picks at all. PSG square off against Bayern Munich next and that should be a cracking game of football. The both teams have a 100% record up until now, but that ends for one team after that game or for both of them if it ends in a draw. I am expecting more twists and turns in this league phase, but most of the teams in your pick, if not all, would qualify automatically for the round of 16.

Don't underestimate Bayern Munich. Bayern Munich was sensational at the beginning of this season, winning all their matches in all competitions without a draw or loss. However, in their last match against PSG in the Club World Cup, PSG managed to defeat Bayern Munich 2-0, even tho PSG played with 9 players after two of their players received red cards during the match.

[Obari]

Liverpool goalkeeper Woodman prevented Liverpool from conceding any more goals. The match is still in progress, but Crystal could have scored four already. While it might seem strange to say Liverpool were lucky to concede two, that's precisely the case.

I'm not sure what this squad can do in the Champions League anymore. They're getting worse with every match.

Crystal Palace now owned Liverpool, no argument about this defeats against Crystal Palace. Arne Slot will swallow his pride and accept defeats tonight. This was one of the big games tonight because bothsides have been fighting weigh above Crystal Palace in the English Premier League but outside the League, Liverpool are unable to stand well on this pitch. There's so much games they've given away because of their vulnerability and I just hope they do fine this season. Liverpool goaliez, Freddie Woodman have served good time at Anfield. This is the type of goalie Liverpool needs to stand with confidence and win games.

Yes, something like this has happened in the past Bayern Munich couldn't beat Paris Saint-Germain despite being outmatched. As we can see, it's not their fault. Paris Saint-Germain won the Champions League last year. They were playing truly magnificently. Bayern Munich couldn't beat them with 11 players. Therefore, we can say that Paris Saint-Germain completely deserved the title. They're doing very well this year, too; let's see how they perform in the finals.

BTTS looked the better side but in the end when it comes to big games like this, it's sometimes much more difficult to predict.

Just like what happened in Madrid's match against Juventus in the previous week which looked quite convincing for BTTS Yes but ended up with something less expected.
On the other hand, by looking at Liverpool's current condition which still cannot rise and their performance still seems erratic in scoring goals, I personally prefer to play on Over or Under for this match but this decision also still cannot be taken because we have to see first in the continued domestic competition they will do what considering the presence of players will also be decisive in big matches like this.

Wirtz still hasn't found his rhythm or even the right balance at Liverpool. And it seems that he is also struggling to adapt to everything there as everything is new to him. So I think he really needs more time to improve his technical performance so that he can have a positive influence on Liverpool's performance. And even improve Liverpool's performance in the Champions League. On the other hand Berbatov also considers Wirtz to be a fantastic player. He also believes that Wirtz needs time to adapt to the team. And he is confident that Wirtz will deliver outstanding performances for Liverpool as long as Wirtz can build his confidence and even always work hard (Source).

I feel for Liverpool , Craystal palace have really finish Liverpool , I think I am beginning to notice some fact after Liverpool won Arsenal 1:0 in the preamier league they started misbehaving loosing all their game , Liverpool should apologize to gunners.
Seen Liverpool current condition I will rather play them to loose.
