UEFA Champions League 2025/26 Season

[Loyang]

Barcelona is a strong team, but at Stamford Bridge, I think beating Chelsea will be no easy task, even if Barcelona appears with a full squad.
In my analysis, this match will feature goals from both Chelsea and Barcelona. That's the difference with you.

I totally agree with you that Barcelona is a strong team, but Chelsea playing at home should make the game difficult for them. I also think this is a very important match for the both team, because they both need points to sneak into the top 8 and avoid a playoff, so I agree it's going to be a match with a lot of goals, but I still tilt a little towards Barcelona winning the match, because of their attacking threat, although it will not be a pushover match for them, because Chelsea have the ability to spring up a surprise and hurt them in the game.

Chelsea and Barcelona are both teams that focus more on attacking than defending. At first I even considered predicting that both would score more than 1.5 goals, but that might be a bit too much. I’m more inclined to believe that both teams will score in the second half. Given Chelsea’s current form, a goal exchange seems very realistic. Still, I’m leaning toward a Barcelona win.

In the match between Chelsea and Barcelona, ​​I will be more interested in Barcelona winning. Because I don't think Chelsea will be able to beat Barcelona. Chelsea's current form has disappointed me a lot. Chelsea plays well at one time and very badly at another. When they won the Club World Cup by beating PSG, they played very well. If we look at the previous matches, Chelsea did not do very well and they have been playing the same way since winning the trophy, they are not able to create a stage where they can win in a row.

But Barcelona is in very good form at the moment. Many of Barcelona's players are injured. If they were not injured, I would give about 94% chance that Barcelona will win.

Bottom lane match, Benfica and Ajax are the teams that are at the bottom of the table, no wins at all, tonight they meet as the opening match of the champions league this week after the international break, in my personal view Benfica is much better than Ajax, they are more reliable to score goals than Ajax, they also need to make sure that they don't want to be the bottom of the bottom.

Who loses this match, yes Ajax seems to have to surrender in this match, both of them may have no hope in the champions league, but pride must be saved even if there is only a drop left.

There are strange similarities between the two teams. Both have lost all four matches this season. They  have not yet been able to earn any points.

Benfica has scored only 2  goals in 4 matches and Ajax has scored one. This means that both of them have very weak attacks. But, Ajax's defense is very shaky this season. They have conceded 14 goals in 4 matches. Perhaps  this is why Benfica is considered the favorite despite Ajax's home match. Anyway , my guess is that the match will be a draw. This match will be the first time  both teams have earned points this season. Let's see what the result is.

Honestly Ajax vs Benfica is like a game nobody cares tonight. Maybe there can be a lot of goals unlike their terrible performances until now. But this won't change things much for any side as they both have 0 points.

I'm just waiting on our game vs USG. Less than half an hour left!    I'm still worried because of lacking Osimhen and some crucial names in the back lines too. But I think we should still be able to overwhelm our competitor and collect 3 more points.

@pawel7777 My friend, Galatasaray's situation is entirely dependent on injuries. If injured players can't play, Galatasaray could lose to the Belgian team. I say this sincerely because they had a tough time in their last league match. If Osimhen, Singo, and Lemina recover from their injuries and can play with the team, Galatasaray has a good chance of winning. But if they don't play, the players Galatasaray recruits to replace them won't be of the same caliber.

Oshimen is injured, but Galatasaray still has a deadly striker who is not inferior in quality to Oshimen, namely Mauro Icardi, the Argentine striker bought by Galatasaray from PSG at a fairly cheap price for European football competition level, 10 million euros. And for this season, Mauro Icardi's performance is even better than Oshimen's. Mauro Icardi has scored 7 goals in 12 appearances with an average of 0.5833 goals per game, while Oshimen has only scored 3 goals in 9 appearances with an average of 0.333 goals per game. Then there is also Leroy Sane, a Bayern Munich player who was acquired by Galatasaray on a free transfer because his contract with Bayern Munich had expired, so he was obtained for free. At Galatasaray, Leroy Sane has already recorded 3 goals and 1 assist.
And the opponent was not a strong team either, Royal Union, a club from Belgium. And Galatasaray also played at their home ground.

At the moment Mauro Icardi is inferior to Victor Osimhen and it can be seen in their respective influence on the team. The impact of when Osimhen plays is always different from when Icardi plays, he might have more goals now in the league but how about the Champions League, Osimhen is better.

This night they need all their available players at their best cos the game Victor Osimhen missed in the champions league they lost woefully so tonight they need to try and keep up with their current UCL form without Osimhen. The Leroy Sane and Mauro Icardi were there when Eintract Frankfurt walloped them 5:1.

The most interesting game today is gonna be the Chelsea vs Barcelona match.

[Mame89]

We have several good games to come for today, but when i have so much games to see and to bet on i ended up having more issues to select one to bet on it, i mean having so much possibilities made my doubt a lot more.

For you which game is the better to bet on in over goals? For me is Manchester City Leverkusen, but City also this season has some issues.

Tonight, there are many exciting and certainly intense UCL matches. Especially after the international break each team has a renewed drive to improve their standings.

There are several matches that I believe have the potential to produce big goals, besides Manchester City vs. Leverkusen Chelsea vs. Barcelona, ​​Ajax vs Benfica, and Napoli vs Qarabag. Betting on the over-goal scoreline in these four matches is better because they have different playing styles, and I believe each team will score.

[MAAManda]

Honestly Ajax vs Benfica is like a game nobody cares tonight. Maybe there can be a lot of goals unlike their terrible performances until now. But this won't change things much for any side as they both have 0 points.

Looking at the odds for over 2.5 goals at just @1,88 it seems like there will be a lot of goals in this match. Rather than the home team being favored, the away team is favored in this match. That's reasonable, given Ajax's recent poor domestic form.

I'm just waiting on our game vs USG. Less than half an hour left!    I'm still worried because of lacking Osimhen and some crucial names in the back lines too. But I think we should still be able to overwhelm our competitor and collect 3 more points.

Despite the absence of many key players, Galatasaray are still heavy favourites to win this match. Important positions left by key players can still be backed up by other fairly good players. I wouldn't be surprised if Galatasaray wins by a big score, especially since they're playing at home.

Yeah but among the ones you listed only the first 2 ones look interesting for real. Because you know, Ajax and Benfica both are having a nightmare CL season. As for Napoli - Qarabag, I guess Napoli wouldn't let any surprises happen.

Manchester City - Leverkusen definitely have a big potential for lots of goals. It all depends on how good Leverkusen can defend. If it's like the PSG match then I'm sorry for them already.  

I'm not sure about many goals in the Chelsea - Barcelona one. It will be up to the way Chelsea defend.

Here we go Guys !!!!
Barca have arrived, and after taking some rest, they will stand on for the do or die battle. Honestly, I can't wait to see it more. It's gonna be too exciting. Anyway, let's get into the field. Both side looking super favorable, but first I will tell you here that I am Barcelona fan I will go for Barca. I am also bit Chelsea support but but my childhood club is Barcelona.....

Here I saw in PM that many people is still skeptical about Barcelona. I don't why although Barcelona recent performance was much more visible than Chelsea but still they were in way of Chelsea. Hansi Flick team is fully prepared and will try to utilize his full effort to get the victory. Thus far many injuries players are also coming back into the field, and probably this is the big alarming signal for Chelan.

Anyway way let see what happens next.

It might be difficult to win at Chelsea's home. Chelsea have won two matches in the Champions League and both were chelsea's home matches. Chelsea have dropped points in both matches...

But Chelsea have failed to play well in their home matches in the lremier League. They have managed to get only 10 points in 6  home matches. So is it fair to call chelsea the favourites just by considering the home matches ? Barcelona is not a weak team either. Also, Barcelona's squad is quite strong now. Several  key players have returned to the squad after recovering from injuries. Lewandowski and Yamal are likely to be in the starting XI. And we will see raphinha in the squad in the second half. Even though  it is Chelsea's home match, I would like to keep Barcelona ahead. My prediction is that the match will be drawn 1- 1 or Barcelona will win.

We can't really say they might have trouble winning because they couldn't win their last game in the premier league but still there is a lot to be considered in this game, Barcelona would also be coming with full force and they wouldn't want to lose, I predicted this game to end as a draw initially but now I'm beginning to have reasons to believe that Chelsea might actually end up winning the game

The most interesting game today is gonna be the Chelsea vs Barcelona match.

Galatasaray will win this night game because when I cross checked the previous games of Union St.Gilloise, they are not match with Galatasaray. And even in the table Union St.Gilloise is in the 28 position and Galatasaray is in the 9 position. And if Galatasaray do not win this night game then many people would not support them again and predict for them again. There are many interesting games in the Champion league today. And the most of them all is the match between Barcelona and Chelsea. And this match is unpredictable but even at that one team must win and that should be Barcelona.

Don't forget that Ajax Amsterdam will be playing at home in this match, so they are slightly favored over Benfica. However, when you look at Ajax Amsterdam's results in the Champions League this season, they are not only at the bottom of the table, but they are also the team that has conceded the most goals, with 14 goals conceded in four Champions League matches.There is still a glimmer of hope to fight for a place in the playoffs, even though the chances are very slim. So both teams must avoid a draw in this match, and the loser will be eliminated early. However, it would be a nightmare if both teams drew in this match, as there would be no hope for either team to advance to the next round.

Galatasaray is the favorites even the bookies acknowledged that but anything is possible moreover it's thr champions league and teams especially the ones you don't expect give their best so as to be in a better position to qualify for the next round, although I'm not expecting much from Union St. Gilloise but I won't underate them even though I support Galatasaray to win cause of my love for Victor Osimhen. Who else noticed that Chelsea was given a lesser odd than Barcelona does that mean the bookies consider Chelsea as favorites? I'm just wondering why or is it cause they're at home.

[blomen]

galatasaray looks like the favorite against saint-gilloise, but the team is missing key players like osimhen, lemina, and yunus akgün. osimhen and yunus akgün, in particular, carried a huge portion of the team's attacking load in the champions league and put tremendous pressure on the opposition. without them, players like gabriel sara and mauro icardi will take their place in attack, but i can't predict how it will turn out.

[Creeper0]

Barcelona's players have returned from injury and their form after returning from injury is also great, especially Robert Lewandowski. He is scoring goals regularly and helping the team win, Lamine Yamal is also playing well and Brazilian star Raphinha is back in the team. That means their attack line is now very strong and ready to attack again and again. Even their defensive problems have been resolved to some extent. On the other hand, Chelsea are finding their consistency and are desperate for a win. Chelsea can be a big obstacle for Barcelona at home, but Barcelona now has the ability to overcome that obstacle.

Ajax and Benfica aren't good, they're the lowest-ranked teams.
They need to make every effort to earn a point in a match like this. It seems like the teams will play cautiously, so I'm predicting a draw, just a guess.
I'd have liked Benfica to lose, and he didn't like Fenerbahçe because of Jouse Mourinho. Now Benfica has said they're returning to their own quality and are failing in the Champions League. May they continue to do so.

This match is just as important for Ajax as it is for Benfica, and although I agree that Benfica should be stronger than Ajax, it will be an away match for them, so I would not be surprised if Benfica can't win today. And while I am writing this, Benfica has already scored a goal, it seems that Ajax are at the bottom of the table for a reason, and maybe if they manage to win today, it will give them the confidence to climb into the playoff zone.

A quick goal came from Samuel Dahl, a good start for Benfica and immediately put pressure in this first half, but the game was still quite slow, but Benfica was a little better in building attacks, it seems that Benfica can end this match with a win, let's see if Ajax can get the momentum to turn things around because they are playing at home which would be a shame not to take advantage of.

Chelsea can be a big obstacle for Barcelona at home, but Barcelona now has the ability to overcome that obstacle.

Tonight I think the match between Barcelona and Chelsea will be very tough since everyone said that Barcelona players have returned back from injury, which means they are doing well now according to people, and Chelsea, on the other hand, are also trying their possible best to keep their form consistent. So for this reason, I said I’m expecting the match to be a tough one tonight.

Because I know that Chelsea has their own problems, as they were able to win their last match in the Premier League, that will not give me hope to make predictions against them that they will be the favorite to win the match, as the team lacks consistency. If they win one match, we have to be sure that their performances in next match won’t go the way fans will be expect.

For you which game is the better to bet on in over goals? For me is Manchester City Leverkusen, but City also this season has some issues.

If you’re looking specifically for an over-goals pick, Manchester City vs Leverkusen is still one of the best options today. City remain very productive in attack, and Leverkusen’s defensive problems make it hard to imagine they keep a clean sheet. At the same time, Leverkusen usually create enough chances to score at least once, especially against a City side that hasn’t been solid at the back this season.
For me, this matchup has the clearest potential for both teams to score and for the total to go over.

I was thinking Barcelona will win this game but when i checked the statistics I found out that Chelsea has won more than Barcelona, I think  Chelsea has won Barcelona 5 times while Barcelona has won twice and i think like 3-4 draws and there last meeting Chelsea won 2:1 so I think Chelsea might win today considering the fact that Barcelona is not really stable now though Chelsea on the other hand is not also stable. The game is just 50/50 and I think the reason they gave Chelsea winning odd was because they will be going to Chelsea home to play. My prediction in that game is any side to win.
