UEFA Champions League 2025/26 Season

[Franctoshi]

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.

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.

Liverpool form cannot be trusted currently, fluctuation in performances, Just today they couldn't even get a single goal on their domestic game EFL Cup competition. Lost 3:0 crystal palace, ordinarily if it was when Liverpool was still in form,  Crystal Palace would

In Liverpool's defence, they prioritise the upcoming Saturday game against Aston Villa and let the first squad players have a rest. The second suit players failed to deliver, but Crystal Palace is a solid team, so the result shouldn't be that much of a surprise. I think Slot intentionally sacrificed the cup to focus on the Premier League and Champions League.

That being said, I'm surprised to see Liverpool as a (very slight) favourite in next week's game against Real Madrid. The odds are:
Liverpool: x2.45
Draw: x3.75
Real: x2.60

There's clearly something wrong with Liverpool's form lately, even ignoring today's game, so maybe a bet on Real is not a bad idea.

I think the odds will change again, especially if Liverpool drops points at home against Aston Villa. I think Real Madrid is more deserving of being favored, as Xabi Alonso’s team is riding high on confidence after winning the El Clasico. The Liverpool versus Aston Villa match will provide a clear picture of whether Arne Slot has fixed the defensive issues, considering they shouldn’t have conceded three goals against Crystal Palace.

Regardless of the priority scale set by Arne Slot for each competition, in a situation like this, a win is the only thing that truly matters. Fans may still be patient with a string of poor results, but if it continues, Arne Slot will face serious pressure, which could ultimately lead to his dismissal.

I don't think Liverpool have any interest in giving their best in the EFL Cup this season. This impression seems justified when I reviewed the lineup Arne Slot used against Crystal Palace, so perhaps they'll just focus on other domestic competitions and the Champions League.

But whatever the reason, I admit that Liverpool's recent form has been terrible. They've suffered four consecutive defeats in the Premier League, and then they lost 0-3 by Crystal Palace in the EFL Cup. It feels bad to rely on them this season, even when Liverpool are the favorites. I'm not sure what Arne Slot is thinking following Liverpool's poor performance of late, and he hasn't even found a solution to the players' declining performance.

they are playing at home for this match so I think this will be considered as a fairness because in the end, after all, being at home clearly makes this an advantage so it is quite natural that odds like this will occur.
Although for now the condition of Madrid is in fact much smoother than Liverpool, but still this situation will not be controlled because the bookmakers realize the benefits of playing at home will be much greater.

But on the other hand, even though the odds are quite attractive now, honestly I am not too brave to be at 1x2 in a match like this. The odds do look quite tempting but for Madrid's match against Liverpool I would prefer not to be in a situation where 1x2 becomes a patoakn because honestly this can be deceiving.

The first team players can't be trusted too. I wonder why the even spent that much on those signing. Most of them are going to be flops at the end of the season

Imagine from losing 2-1 to Chelsea, losing 2-1 to Manchester United, and then winning 5-1 against Frankfurt to losing 3-2 to Brentford. I think the full first team would have lost to crystal palace too.

At the moment Liverpool is not a reliable team especially after the recent losing streak so I don't dare to predict who will win or maybe a draw is fair enough for both teams. If the bookies are on their side it is because Liverpool are playing at home well, in a big match like this, many unexpected things can happen. To place a bet I will monitor up to 30 minutes before the match starts, there we will see how the bets are placed by the gamblers.

Liverpool showed mush resilience in their performance last season because of M. Salah, we also saw that dropped grandly towards the end of the season when M. Salah wasn’t scoring any much goals. That’s the case of M. Salah this season as well, he isn’t measuring up in terms of goals or creating much assists and with that drop in performance, the team seems to suffer.

Isak which was bought at a great price with much expectations on him haven’t shown a single performance for the team. Instead, we have the likes of Ekitike to have done more for the team. Putting your money on Liverpool at this time in the game is you being ready to lose that money, they aren’t just it.

Should the best teams now sacrifice games?! This is no excuse honestly. Gambling a cup game like this is the same way he'll fumble the next against Aston Villa and against Real Madrid. Don't get it twisted. Don't fall for the odds the bookmakers use in deceiving themselves, they're not good to decide how a game ends. If they can match a side like Crystal Palace,  why do you think they'll beat Real Madrid?!

The coach most likely yo lose his job before Christmas. Maybe Jamie Carragher will say this soon. It is a Real Madrid win, don't gamble it.

Great opportunity bet full for Madrid next match in Champion League against Liverpool, actually can't acceptable why Madrid with consistent performance and won all champion league phase round get bigger odd than Liverpool have bad performance. Playing home actually not advantage yet after Liverpool can't playing well in domestic league after easily loss at Anfield Stadium, for Madrid fans great chance put all for Madrid how bigger odds and will win this match.

This weekend Madrid will face Valencia as relegation team and exactly make huge rotation for starting line up prepare team for facing Liverpool, difference position for Liverpool after losing many matches in premier league will play full team against Aston Villa in this week and likely Arne Slot will not huge rotation line up team.

I don't understand why bookies make Liverpool more favorite than Real Madrid even though the difference is small, even though as we know Liverpool has been in a series of bad results recently while Real Madrid is in better form, Real Madrid should be more favorite, but yes, what you said is true, sometimes matches like this are difficult to predict because so far Liverpool are still quite good in the Champions League, they only play badly in the Premier League, but I also don't know if the opponent is Real Madrid, maybe Liverpool will lose again.

[bitgolden]

What happened last season can't be used as a benchmark. Everything is different now, and Liverpool are in a slump after a string of defeats. It's hard for us all here to believe Liverpool can beat Real Madrid. In fact, I think Real Madrid will be able to destroy Liverpool in this match.
Liverpool's performance in the win against Frankfurt can't be seen or used as a benchmark because Frankfurt is a weak team. So, let's just look at Liverpool's recent performances and compare them to Real Madrid's. There's a clear and significant difference.

Unfortunately, Liverpool's recent form hasn't been good enough, despite several defeats to weaker clubs. Liverpool will face Real Madrid. Hopefully, against this top club, Liverpool will be more motivated, unlike their usual opponents against smaller clubs, where they've lost not only in the Premier League but also in the Champions League.

What's also interesting is that former Liverpool defender Trent Arnold could be in the starting lineup for the Liverpool vs. Real Madrid match due to Carvajal's injury.

While the headline is true that he may start, it's really a cheeky way of saying it that way. Because even if Carvajal wasn't injured, TAA is their main right back at the moment, Carvajal is the bench one, because of the age difference. If Carvajal was ten years younger than yeah we would have seen Carvajal is the better one without even a doubt, but at this age, Carvajal is only a bench player and may just join later on in the game.

So it doesn't really matter if Carvajal is injured or not, it's about Trent finally being not injured, so Trent will definitely start the game without a question, saying it that way, like it somehow has anything to do with Carvajals injury is weird, but also doesn't make it incorrect.

The league stage of the champions league has been very competitive,  but some teams have shown signs of doing better than other teams and I have been very impressed with the way some teams have played already, although things can change so quickly in football.
On answering your question on which teams I feel will qualify automatically for the round of 16, I will go for PSG, Arsenal, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Manchester city, Barcelona, Newcastle and Inter Milan. I am not saying this will definitely be the top 8, but it's just my prediction based on what I have seen this season.

Yes, if you think about it briefly, it does make sense that the teams you mentioned could make it to the Champions League quarter-finals. These teams are all top teams, and they all have exceptional players. Therefore, it's natural that these eight teams could make it to the Champions League quarter-finals. However, I think there are always surprises. Moreover, this is the Champions League, which is a very tight competition. So, it's possible that an unexpected team could make it to the quarter-finals. For example, Dortmund, Atletico Madrid, and Chelsea.

While it's true that these teams' performances are currently inconsistent, it's possible that they could improve and reach the quarter-finals. Therefore, I think our predictions could be wrong in the Champions League. This is a major competition involving many great teams. But in my personal opinion, the teams that are most likely to advance to the quarterfinals are PSG, Bayern Munich, and Real Madrid. I think these three teams are most likely to advance to the quarterfinals, as their performances are truly exceptional at the moment.

They lost a Champions League match against Galatasaray. Therefore, I don't think they had a very good Champions League tournament. Real Madrid is performing much better. The fact that the match is in England is one factor that makes Liverpool the favorite, but football is a game played on the pitch, and I think Real Madrid has a higher chance of winning based on that. Liverpool's recent poor form should also be considered.

[doomloop]

Liverpool are doing what they can, and that's not much considering all the money they've spent to get such strong players who aren't performing as well as hoped but could explode at any moment, so never say never, about what could happen,It definitely takes time

Not every team does better after some good transfers. Liverpool has proven that, they did worse with the way they are looking at the moment, even after that much money spending. And I know that Arne Slot won the premier league on his very first season, that is true, so he has a big credit with the team, but he used that credit to buy players, instead of getting time.

If he didn't spend this much money, and I know it is not exactly HIM that spent the money but he must have given approval for these, then it means he is responsible for the results too. They made these moves with the acknowledgement that it is only sustainable if they win again, and possibly do great at UCL. If they just keep losing then it makes no sense to keep Arne Slot, he may literally get fired if they finish the season underperforming.

[cozytrade]

The match between Chelsea vs Ajax in the UEFA Champions League was played. If I talk about the performance of the Chelsea team, it was amazing. But I never thought that the players of the Ajax team would lose the match with such a poor performance. The Chelsea team scored 5 goals and the Chelsea team performed amazingly from the beginning to the end of the game.

The painful part is that they were the ones on a home game, but they still lost 0–3 in the game. Liverpool is such a disgrace, and I don’t think they will be able to perform any better in the Champions League or even become a problem to their opponents. The game will definitely be an easy one for Real Madrid, because their performance is already out of the box, and it will be very hard for them to fix things this fast. All I will say is that Liverpool will not be able to do anything again, unless they get a better coach, because Slot has already disappointed.

[Akbarkoe]

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.

Seeing PSG and Bayern Munich is also fun considering their intensity is much higher because both are considered strong unlike Liverpool who are in decline, but it's better to just watch the replay after watching my team.

You are a joker to feel that Arne Slot is pretending and chose to accept fout consecutive losses in EPL. Liverpool was abke to win their last UCL match because they played with a weak team. Real Madrid wouldn't give Liverpool the chance to be flexible as they were in their last macth. Madrid is gradually picking form which means that they will do everything possible to win Liverpool.

That's just a guess and nothing more, it's pretty stupid if it's considered a pretense, they don't have that thick mask to do it, Liverpool is really bad and can't be considered a team that has a good strategic strength for now, as I said that the assumption is that Real Madrid will play easily if Liverpool really plays badly and Arnee Slot doesn't evaluate all the mistakes he made in 4 consecutive defeats.

Finally, we will see first how Liverpool against Aston Villa, it will be an important note to watch in calculating the match against Real Madrid in the champions league.

The fact he won the premier league title on his first season shows the fault is not all about him, new players are involved too or have you ever wondered Isak thought too? I know fans will drag the player including Arne slot yet they can decide to improve within any time. Don’t get surprised if Liverpool win the title again although I’m not in support of Liverpool winning again but, anything can happen during premier league competition, players just need to stay connected with the coach more especially because if both players and coach are not working in line the whole work process will be waste, I guess there’s something going on and Liverpool should find every means to make amends meanwhile it has not gotten to an extend sacking the current coach.

All I will say is that Liverpool will not be able to do anything again, unless they get a better coach, because Slot has already disappointed.

Slot won the premier league in his first season at Liverpool therefore he's now feeling too relaxed like he has nothing to prove again not knowing that he hasn't won the champions League and still needs to retain the title like how other managers are doing before the fans will begin to see him as a qualified coach. The game against Liverpool isn't going to end as most individuals are thinking that Real Madrid is going to destroy Liverpool. One thing about Liverpool games this season is that for teams that they aren't supposed to be losing against, that's when you begin to see them play badly but for big teams they play very well and if they were to lose the game, it'll be by a small margin.
