[sergiorus]

With all the injuries PSG are having plus playing away I wouldn't say it's gonna be an easy win at all.

The odds are severely mismatched, it can very easily be a draw so betting on PSG at these odds is a foolish deal in my opinion. Awful risk to reward ratio.

Common, don’t turn a blind eye to the possible result of this game. Paris Saint German are the clear favorites in this game and I don’t think that Villarreal will have an advantage over them. The odds speaks clearly of what the probable outcome of this game will be with PSG taking the victory in the end. PSG has dominated the competition and it has been seen clearly in all of their big matches they’ve played in the competition. There is even no reason to think that PSG won’t win this match unless you want take a high risk of going against the bookmakers. This is if football happens and luck shines on Villarreal that they can win this match. Asides that, we all know that PSG are the favorites and the luck may happen on them more than it will be a luck on Villarreal to win this game.

Favourites still - sure.

But not at these odds. Especially without Kvaratskhelia, Dembele, Marquinhos and Mendes. Plus playing away.

Again, what I'm saying is the odds are set to barely pay you anything if they win whilst the chance of PSG taking only 1 point is not insignificant.

They have strengthened their midfield, they have the best attacking lineup at the moment but where they have made mistakes is in defence. Barcelona are weak in defence which makes them struggle to cope with the opponent's counter attacks every time. Real Madrid missed several chances in the El Clasico due to some of their own mistakes, if Madrid could have taken advantage of those chances then the gap could have been even wider. However, in La Liga they might be able to compete hard with Real Madrid but in the Champions League it is difficult to progress very far with such a weak defence line. In the last few seasons Barcelona have not had any success in the Champions League because this team has always been eliminated from the Champions League journey in every season of the Champions League. This season too they are not able to make much of an advantage in the Champions League and I think Barcelona might be eliminated from the Champions League in the quarter-finals this season.

If Barça doesn't make the necessary adjustments, he's right, they could be eliminated. I don't know what's happened to Barça; they've lost the level they were showing. They started by scoring a lot of goals and were on a very successful run. I think the players are feeling the effects of fatigue very quickly, almost too late in the league. When you exert yourself physically in a sport in a short time, there comes a point where your body doesn't respond the same way; they're not machines. The body needs to start resting more to recover. They're playing at a very frenetic pace.

I agree with you, because it seems like Barcelona really needs to adjust. Their current performance is clearly not like it was at the start of the season, which could be said to be very aggressive. So, with that in mind, I think Barcelona should rest some of their key players, if possible. But that's clearly not something that can be done easily, because in big matches, key players are still needed. So perhaps the solution is that when Barcelona plays against weaker teams, they don't need to field many of their key players.

Because with that, it will certainly be easier to control the stamina of their key players. Furthermore, I think Barcelona's defense also needs to be improved, and their midfield also needs some improvements. Because I saw yesterday's matches against PSG and Real Madrid, Barcelona's defense was too fragile when facing big teams. So, the defense clearly needs to be improved even more now if they want to be able to compete well again in the Champions League, and also in other competitions.

[Ale88]

PSG seems to be the favorite to win again, especially after their last match against Barcelona. Do you also favor PSG to win the title this season? Who do you think has the greatest potential to win this season?

On paper, and also based on the matches played against Manchester City and Barcelona, I see PSG as - once again - the best team of the competition. This of course doesn't mean they are going to surely win but the way they beat those two clubs says a lot about them. It would be very interesting to see them playing against Real Madrid in the knock-out stage.

Hansi didn't prioritize his defense much, which is why they were getting through so easily, but he needs to do something about that. Besides, as you said, they played timidly, they didn't play with their aggressive style, or perhaps Real Madrid lulled them to sleep. That could have been the case.

If you're reading about Barça's style, you know how to counter it and attack their weaknesses, like their defense. And I think Rodri didn't do a great job; the one I saw as the one who did the most damage was Pedri.

Barcelona has many individual players who are amazing but from my impression i noticed that these players don't play well together, they had the problem of introducing new players, because these teams always need new players to play at high levels in the most important competitions.

I think the players get tired after playing in multiple tournaments. Barcelona players are more hardworking than other teams. Hansi Flick takes every match very seriously and uses top players without resting. It is true that the players do not play well together but Flick has to take every match seriously and decide the strategy. The players are hardworking so the team has a high success rate. In the long run these strategies may not work for the team and Flick needs to pay attention to this.

Suddenly people have been talking down on Barcelona, citing one mistake or the other, trying to say something. This very Barcelona had been praised relentlessly this season before the two consecutive losses they had. Barcelona remains a very strong team, they understand football. What happened is common, I even read from someone that if they could do a replay, it could turns to be the opposite for them. The players there are good, both the young, old, new, and the ones that have been there for years. They only need to ignite that fire again, the internation break must have dealt blows on their players not minding that they did well in the first 3 matches.

Barcelona have only lost one game in the Champions League, and you've already changed your opinion and started talking about something being wrong with them. In reality they've faced two strong teams in a row and lost both matches. But I don't think Barcelona have become a worse team or that anything else has changed. I believe they'll perform well in the league phase. As for what will happen in the knockout stages, we'll just have to wait and see.

I won't read too much into the Barcelona losses. In none of those games were they totally outplayed. They held on with PSG till like the 80th minute before PSG took the game away from them, and I think the substitution they made played a role. I think positives can be taken from going toe to toe with the best team in Europe for 80 minutes.
With Madrid, it's a different game. They were the better team, but on the ball, Madrid had more purpose. To make things worse, they gifted Madrid two golden chances through defensive errors, and Mbappe is not the kind of player to give such chances. On the ball, Barcelona were not as sharp or as aggressive as they used to. I also do not know if they were fatigued or clueless because of Mourinho's tactics, but they weren't running into space as they normally do, even though there were a lot of spaces to exploit.
Losing against the best team in Europe and your rival doesn't mean they are a bad team. At least this time, they started droppig points early on instead being in form till towards the end of the season.

I was just talking yesterday about PSG's chances this season and I can totally agree with you. PSG can surely go all the way and secure it a 3rd time in a row, like Real did. How odd it is that for so many years PSG couldn't win the UCL and spent stupidly ridiculous money on Neymar and company, only to remodel a little bit and now look unstoppable.

[Gaza13]

PSG's next UCL match will be against Villarreal, but we don't know who will win that match because football is always full of surprises. However, I think PSG has a high chance of winning that match because PSG's current strength is truly great, which is why Barcelona lost. Who do you think will win, and what will be the score?

PSG will definitely win this match. Although Villarreal performed impressively last season, their position has dropped this season, and they are now sitting 10th in La Liga. With their current form, it will be much harder for Villarreal to secure a win, especially against PSG, who are currently in their best form. So most likely Villarreal will struggle and PSG’s chances of getting another point are very high. Maybe the score will be 3-0.

In terms of current performance, PSG certainly holds an advantage over Villarreal. However, it is worth noting that the upcoming match will take place at Villarreal’s home ground. While securing a win against PSG will be a difficult task for Villarreal, nothing is impossible. Playing at home actually gives Villarreal an edge; with the strong backing of their fans, the players should be able to draw extra energy and motivation from that support. Looking at their recent match history, Villarreal’s performance hasn’t actually been that bad. I’m confident the upcoming match will be an exciting one, with both sides trading attacks; a 3-0 scoreline seems a bit excessive. A 1-0 result in favor of the hosts is more likely.

Playing at home doesn't guarantee that a team will be difficult to beat. Did you see how PSG defeated Man City?
It might make more sense if you had other reasons, such as the injuries to several key PSG players like Dembele, Mendes, Kvaratskhelia, and Marquinhos, which could affect PSG's performance. But even so, Enrique knows how to lead his team to avoid dropping points and keep the players mentally strong, so he could still beat Villarreal without much trouble.

I'm not saying that Villarreal should be underestimated. In fact, I also think a draw could happen if those 4 injured PSG players are all unavailable.

Villarreal are never a team that can beat a strong team like PSG. Despite Villarreal being at home, they will not be able to beat PSG. And your example is completely logical, because if home advantage could give a team much more strength, PSG would not have gone to Manchester City's home field and beaten Manchester City with a score of 4-2. Anyway, I am not worried about the match against Villarreal. But one thing is for sure that PSG's key players in attack are now injured, especially Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Ousmane Dembélé. Now PSG's attack will mainly rely on Ferran Torres and Désiré Doué. Ousmane Dembélé will return to the team after some time, but Khvicha Kvaratskhelia will not be able to play any more matches this season, and this is very disappointing. But anyway, I expect PSG to be able to survive as usual, PSG will not lose against Villarreal, and PSG will fight very hard to win the title this season as well.

I think you must also focus on PSG's opponent. They're not facing a strong opponent like Barcelona. You're right they have many of their key players injured, but Villareal is not in Barcelona's level. So the odds makes sense consider they're still better in term of team quality than Villareal with assumption they use their 2ndary squad.
However, 1.63 seems not worthy with the risk, but alt bet such as asian handicap -1 sounds worthy to pick.

These days A/H game means nothing. As long as the club have competence players, they can win wherever they play.

Villarreal may not equally get a draw either.

Luis Enrique's team are in some crazy form at the moment and also seem invincible even against big rivals.

I'm not worried about Barcelona's two defeat. Hansi Flick is smart manager. He will certainly adjust his strategy in upcoming match and Barca's performance will become strong again.

Start of the season, Barca faced relatively weaker opponent. Those teams couldn't really make any headway against Flick's tactic. So Barcelona have shown dominance in almost every match. But when they faced giant opponent PSG, Madrid, they suffered defeats. Flick's tactic did not work effectively against strong defense. Still I saw that barcelona players were able to create plenty of chance.

Flick needs to thoroughly study those two match against PSG and Madrid. To move forward more effectively he must identify his own mistake and learn from them.

[Adbitco]

I can't figure out what scared you so much. First of all, it’s *El Clásico*, even if the balance of power were heavily skewed (which I don’t see as the case), the result always tends toward equilibrium - not in the sense that the teams draw, but rather that either side is capable of winning, perhaps even by a 4-0 margin. Yes, Real (as always lol) is not in optimal condition, but in the past, even in this condition, Real won both the Champions League and individual games against Barcelona, I don’t see anything unusual in the current season. Atlético always scares me more than Barcelona.

~Mourinho with what his team are currently playing stands no chance against this Barcelona team, it's still true that anything can happen but it's a very big "what if"

Hehehe, time to return to this discussion 
See, there was nothing to worry about - just as I said, big matches turned out to be a completely different story for Barcelona compared to games against clear underdogs, in the end, both PSG and Real Madrid won. Real Madrid have easy games next - Racing and AEK, it will be especially disappointing to lose points after an important victory, I hope this does not happen. Barcelona has slightly tougher fixtures ahead, against Alavés and Aston Villa, though these are well-suited for licking their wounds following some big matches and prepare for the match against Atlético.

Hahaha, now you're laughing at me but I think I understand you perfectly well. I'm a Real Madrid, it's just normal to be afraid of ones teams when they are not doing well and will soon face a team that has tormented them for 2 consecutive seasons. I was playing it safe, apart from that, from the look of things and how the season started, it's clear Barcelona were getting favourites. Lots of us knew this but Mourinho shocked us and I over it, he outclassed Flick by tactics, which shows his still gat it in him. Let's see how the season goes because I would love for us to win the league.

I also don't believe PSG could lose to Villarreal. The confident way the Parisians beat Barcelona shows their strength, but at the same time, key players like Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Nuno Mendes, Dembele, and Marquinhos are out injured. Whether Luis Enrique can steady the ship without them remains an open question. I hope he can replace the injured players without a drop in the team's quality of play.

Yes I totally agree with you. We can see some surprises in this match, but PSG will lose to Villarreal, we will not face such a big surprise. Because PSG is the strongest team in the UCL right now and they are very strong in every area. Villarreal's performance is not showing any improvement and they have won only one match out of 3 matches. Even though this match is at Villarreal's home ground, I expect them to win the match by 3 - 0. Let's see how we perform on the field. And of course I will bet on PSG in this match and PSG will score 3 goals. I will also bet on this.
