UEFA Champions League 2025/26 Season

[barisbilgili]

There are many strong matches today, but this one interested me for many reasons. Real Madrid has no official coach yet; Arbeloa is just giving freedom to the kindergarten (PS, I'm a big supporter of RM). So I’m not expecting much from him. Also, we can’t talk about stability or tactics right now.
When it comes to Monaco, they haven’t won their last four matches in Ligue 1, but let’s be honest, at least they have a coach working on improving the performance. I’m not saying that Monaco is better than RM, both are struggling, but if I were to bet on one team today, I would choose Monaco, as the odds are really tempting.

That's a very risky betting option, my friend. I think it's better for you to abandon that intention because even though Real Madrid doesn't have an official coach yet, they will be playing at their home ground and also what needs to be remembered is that Real Madrid has a very high mentality when playing in the Champions League competition so they can create a different performance even though I'm not so sure that Real Madrid can win the match, but I don't think they will lose at their home ground.

Most people are waiting for the main event between Inter and Arsenal of course. The question is how much rotation we'll see by Arteta? Depending on it I might bet on Inter to win.

I don't think Arsenal will rotate much, perhaps only one or two key players will be left out of the Inter match. Arsenal want to finish the group stage unbeaten. So, against Inter and Kairat, Arsenal will want a win or at least a draw to maintain their unbeaten record.

Sarah Azhari you are very correct they will do everything better to remain unbeaten this match may actually end in draw or Arsenal will win, Arsenal is very inform this season and they can remain  unbeaten and end up lifting the champions league title this season. They may increase their performance just to maintain there unbeaten record, it almost time for the match so let’s just wait and see how it goes but for me I have already bet Arsenal to win or draw that option is the best for this match.

Those who have been coaching Real Madrid, are they not good enough to give Real Madrid trophies? They are. Those recent coaches that have been sacked from Real Madrid are good coaches based on their records in other places. But when they get to Real Madrid, that is when some of them face challenges, which makes them look poor in managing the team.Alonso is a good coach, and everyone can’t deny that fact. So I don’t think that Real Madrid not doing well as expected was fully Alonso’s fault. The players are also contributing to the problem, but many people do not see the players faults.

To be fair, Ancelotti won 2 UCL titles and 2 La Liga titles in 4 years, so that comes down to 1 title per year averages, and yet he was still sacked. It is not even about getting titles or trophies for Real Madrid, there is a lot more than that.

It's a club culture of feeling great, and being the best, and if you are not there, then you get fired. Xabi didn't think they were the best, and suggested they should work harder to be better, and the entire culture is "we know what we are doing, we won it all" so when you tell them they are not good enough, they fire you.

[Not your key not your BTC]

I think the Monaco match is a good opportunity for Arbeloa to show himself. It is a very easy match on paper. You must have all seen how horrible Monaco are this season.

They are in a very bad condition in the Ligue 1 already. I know they still have a chance for Champions League playoffs. But I wouldn't trust them at all. 

Real Madrid would dominate the match without doubt. But I hope they don't have much trouble with scoring multiple goals.

Yes, this match is a big stage for Arbeloa to showcase his skills in his Champions League coaching debut. Even though Monaco aren't in great form, Arbeloa still needs to be wary, as Monaco could pull off a surprise victory over Real Madrid or even a draw. However, I'm confident Real Madrid will win this match by a large Score, especially with Mbappé in top form.

You are right, the fact that Real Madrid has been unstable and not performing as expected of them doesn't mean they will lose to Monaco and I know people will think this way because of Real Madrid's past game but real Madrid doesn't just have a high mentality about champions league but rather they are more experienced than their opponent and secondly there opponent either is not in a better form  than real Madrid so it is going to be a win for Real Madrid the highest thing that will happen is that they will just give Real Madrid tough time it at all they will be able to...

The most prestigious club football is back again after exactly 41 days of its pause. We are back again and this time it's match day 7 which promises to see good fixtures and good football. With Inter Milan Vs Arsenal fixture at heart, I'm sure that's one match some of us would love to watch. Inter Milan is in a good form over the past weeks in their league and Arsenal as well although they haven't won a game in their last 2 matches and might want to use this match and get a win coupled with the fact that they have been the most inform team in the champions league group stage this season. Arsenal will be looking for a win to increase their wins to 7 in 7 and Inter Milan will be looking for a way to end the streak.

The fans are put high expectation for Arbeloa in this game and they want Arbeloa can bring Real Madrid to won over Monaco but it won't be easy because some of Real madrid players will be absense for injured and card accumulation these condition makes Real madrid will not playing with their best squad however, Real madrid is not in the good position that because during group stages they have been lost twice and if want to qualified automatic to quarterfinal Real madrid shouldn't lost anymore and 3 points is mandatory for this game

[Volgastallion]

I know Real Madrid can win this game easily but i say to everyone avoid it to bet, man 1.31 odds with this Real Madrid gives you nothing in exchange of the risk you are taking, we are talking about a reconstruction team under a coach who doesnt have any real experience in how to manage this kind of situations, and Monaco its not the best team around but they have some level to make this Real Madrid have some issues.

Here we go! Finally a matchday in the CL...



Most people are waiting for the main event between Inter and Arsenal of course. The question is how much rotation we'll see by Arteta? Depending on it I might bet on Inter to win.

Another lovely matchup looks like Tottenham v Dortmund. There is a good potential of many goals there. BTTS, over 2.5 goals and over 3.5 goals are good bet options I think.

In my own opinion about the match between Inter Milan and Arsenal, it would be a tough game for Arsenal because they would play Away team against inter Milan though home advantage don't matter much anymore but it wouldn't be easy for arsenal to beat inter Milan. I will stake on Arsenal to win or over 3.5 as they might be many goal in this match.

Tottenham has a favorable history records against Dortmund and Dortmund has being on an impressive form in the bundesliga. Both team are good at conceding goals against each other.. I think the game will play BTT & over 2.5

Indeed, the game will be tough and I can't predict who will be win. Just like the game between Arsenal vs Bayern Munich, there was so many tention before the game, and later Arsenal won the game. But in this present match, there is nothing Arsenal if fighting for, they are already qualified, and topping the group, so there is nothing to kill themselves for against Inter Milan, while on the other hand, Inter needs the winning and will fight for the win. So I believe the two teams wouldn't want to loose anyways as Arsenal will like to maintain there unbeaten run in the champions league.

I believe it's a tough match, anyone can win or they end draw.. we can only wait for the clash

I don't really doubt Inter Milan strength, while Arsenal consistent confidence has them at the top of the league. It's not easy to predict the outcome of the match. Both teams have almost equal chances of winning, but Arsenal will still be the favourites in the match.
I agree with you that Arsenal will either win or draw. Arsenal drew with Nottingham Forest in their last Premier League match. Their performance in that match was not good. If they don't improve their game in the upcoming match, the result could go in Inter Milan's favour.

[SquallLeonhart]

Galatasaray certainly does not joke and has the team to be able to do well, but on the other hand even Atletico Madrid does not seem to be very weak, clearly these guys will do everything to win, so it will certainly be a match of excellent level, I can't wait to see him in

The difference between the two teams is that they are fighting for different things. Athletico Madrid is fighting to stay in top 8, which means they will automatically get to next stage without playing in the playoffs, and who wouldn't want that. They would play two less games that way and it would be fresh legs whoever they face later on, a very big chance that they are going to face some easier team that comes from playoffs as well so it would even benefit them for one more round after that, easier quarter finals.

So they have a very big need of a win here to be in the top eight. Galatasaray on the other hand will play to be in the top 24, they either get at least one point out of this, or they might be out for good, so they will fight fur survival.

[Slow death]

Round 7 of the Champions League will be interesting as the strong teams will battle it out with their opponents, I predict these teams will have a higher chance of winning.

Kairat Almaty vs. Club Brugge
Bodo/Glimt vs. Manchester City
Copenhagen vs. Napoli
Inter Milan vs. Arsenal Draw
Real Madrid vs. Monaco
Olympiacos vs. Bayer Leverkusen
Sporting CP vs. Paris Saint-Germain
Tottenham Hotspur vs. Borussia Dortmund Draw
Villarreal vs. Ajax

I have made some predictions based on the betting odds for today's match, I think these teams are more likely to win, although in the Champions League, small teams often play better than big teams. However, I see that the most competition is between these two teams, Inter and Arsenal, and this match will be exciting. I think this match is more likely to end in a draw.

Club Brugge still has a chance to advance to the playoffs, so they will play seriously today against Kairat Almaty, mainly because Kairat Almaty no longer has a chance to advance to the next playoff stage and for that reason they may play without motivation. This is the perfect chance for Club Brugge to win 3 points.

Manchester City also has a good chance of winning today's game in my opinion, so I'm betting on their victory; I put Manchester City on my parlay.

I think Napoli will be a complicated game because Copenhagen comes from two consecutive victories in Champions League games and Napoli is not very reliable. I predict a draw and therefore I will not bet on Napoli or this game.

The remaining games today are also complicated and therefore I did not bet on them.

[Solokan]

real Madridd will face Monaco later, and I think there is a big chance that Real Madrid will win because Real Madrid clearly has a stronger squad than Monaco, so I think I will bet on Real Madrid's victory. Now I am curious whether Arbeloa will come up with a good strategy or not in this match. But I hope real Madrid does not underestimate Monaco because sometimes Monaco can thwart their hopes of winning 3 points. Real Madrid is currently ranked 7th, which I think is good. If Real Madrid can continue to win consistently in upcoming matches, they could advance to the round of 16 without going through the play-offs.

Meanwhile, manchester City will face Bodo/Glimt next, and I hope they perform exceptionally well in this match, as it would be unfortunate if they were to lose. However, it seems that in the Manchester City vs. Bodo/Glimt match, I will bet on Manchester City's victory. Do you feel the same?

[armanda90]

That's a very risky betting option, my friend. I think it's better for you to abandon that intention because even though Real Madrid doesn't have an official coach yet, they will be playing at their home ground and also what needs to be remembered is that Real Madrid has a very high mentality when playing in the Champions League competition so they can create a different performance even though I'm not so sure that Real Madrid can win the match, but I don't think they will lose at their home ground.

Indeed under interim manager Alvaro Arbeloa but Real Madrid playing quite well last match in domestic league and success getting victory against Levante, I think advantage by playing home and has high confidence after domestic league winning match not doubt placing bet for Real Madrid against AS Monaco. Current performance of AS Monaco really bad in Ligue 1 matches after four matches loss in a row although success winning last match in Champion League but Monaco on bad winning mentality for defeating Madrid.

Not too small odd for Madrid 1.31 and believing Madrid win tonight match to improve standings position at Champion League and reach the higher position get qualifying automatically to round of 16.

No rotation to happen from Arsenal's squad in this game. It's too good to miss an opportunity to defend a record being un-deafeated at the qualifier phase of UCL. They get 2.57 in away game, which mean even bookies are still expecting them to perform with the main squad.
I know their game against MU at weekend is important. yet missing last game when they can still finish at the top in the UCL table is also too important to be missed.

[Fiatless]

Yes, this match is a big stage for Arbeloa to showcase his skills in his Champions League coaching debut. Even though Monaco aren't in great form, Arbeloa still needs to be wary, as Monaco could pull off a surprise victory over Real Madrid or even a draw. However, I'm confident Real Madrid will win this match by a large Score, especially with Mbappé in top form.

The game against Monaco should not be too difficult for Real Madrid to win. The Ligue one club has not won a single League match in four games. It will be a big blow to the reputation of Álvaro Arbeloa if Real Madrid doesn't get three points. Real needs to win this game to solidify the chance of gaining an automatic qualification to the next round of the UCL.

I’m not saying that Monaco is better than RM, both are struggling, but if I were to bet on one team today, I would choose Monaco, as the odds are really tempting.

I bet you don't even know who Monaco's coach is (and neither do I, by the way)   I see that this is Sebastian Pocognoli, who coached Genk and Union from Belgium before Monaco. Are you sure that he has more experience/knowledge than Arbeloa, who coached Real Madrid's youth team and has a collection of all possible titles as a player? If I had to choose, I would choose Arbeloa, although maybe I’m wrong and the balance in this pair is not in his favor, but still, it’s not serious enough to say that Monaco has any chance.

I don't think it's a cultural thing, but rather, it's common for big clubs to regenerate their squads. It's not just players who are regenerated, but also when a coach is no longer capable of delivering, replacing them with another coach is one way to maintain the team's quality. In this case, I think it's natural for Real Madrid to do this.

No other top game in today's Champions League football fixture, onlythe  Inter vs Arsenal game, deserves the hype.

Last season, Arsenal went to San Siro and left defeated by Inter with a narrow 1:0 at full time. Should Arsenal lose this game? I dont think so.

Arsenal has to win this game or draw to maintain bragging rights. Arsteta has good quality players to start this game. Rotating the squad won't cause him to lose.

[Pandu Geddon]

The game against Monaco should not be too difficult for Real Madrid to win. The Ligue one club has not won a single League match in four games. It will be a big blow to the reputation of Álvaro Arbeloa if Real Madrid doesn't get three points. Real needs to win this game to solidify the chance of gaining an automatic qualification to the next round of the UCL.  

Madrid's last two opponents for this first round should not be a problem for them. This way, they could automatically advance to the next round. 
Monaco and Benfica are not strong opponents for Madrid. But we know Madrid is in a situation where they are transitioning from the playing style and coaching of the former coach. However, their opponents are also fighting for a playoff spot, so they will do their best as well. I just hope Madrid does not perform disappointingly in the upcoming match.
