For the time being, why PSG is being seen as the favorite for the league title is because so far in their journey in this year’s champions league competition, they’ve dominated more than any of the top teams that are the best contender for the title, they’ve proven once again that they’re ready for the title challenge and will win it for the third time in a row.

I think that's why they've won two consecutive Champions League titles. Furthermore, Luis Enrique wants to equal Real Madrid's feat of winning three consecutive Champions League titles. The team's current good form allows him to say things like this. Of course, they now have a revamped Real Madrid, with a Mourinho hungry to win the Champions League. It's not easy anymore; it's already been shown that Barcelona couldn't stop them. Hope rests on Real Madrid, and this season Bayern Munich and Arsenal might not treat them as favorites anymore. It's not as easy for them as it was in the seasons they won it.

Barcelona - 4.25

PSG - 4.25

Arsenal - 6.25

Bayern - 6.75

Real - 7.50

City - 11.00

Liverpool - 21.00

I noticed that even defeats in head-to-head matches against PSG and Real Madrid haven’t changed Barcelona’s status as the favorite for the Champions League title. Well, ok, the numbers don't mean much now (although why is Bayern so much worse than Barcelona?), but for example, City, in my opinion, is greatly overrated (given their problems that everyone knows about) and Liverpool is underrated. Is it possible to profit from skewed odds right now? If I were trying to do so, I would bet against the favorites on prediction markets (it’s unlikely their chances will increase much further).

Sometimes, the number didn't lie, but i'm thinking the numbers are lying to us. How can Barcelona is still topping the out right to win UCL? it's the weirdest thing that i have ever seen after they got thrashed by PSG and Madrid in a row. I think they have to be valued under Madrid.
Beside that Liverpool odds seem quite fair, but i agree City is overpriced. It must be the same as Liverpool.

However, which sites are you using? Mine is showing Barcelona being priced 5.00, which is lightly higher than PSG.

Stake, sportsbet, rainbet or Polymarket. However, in a prediction market, you have to take liquidity into account: for a $10 stake, you might get the best available odds, but for $10,000, the odds would be completely different because there aren't enough orders to cover that volume.
All in all, I don’t think there’s much of a difference right now between 4.50, 5.0, or 5.50 - you probably wouldn’t want to place a bet yet (unless, of course, you’re a die-hard fan and the odds don’t really matter to you) since the teams' paths to the final aren't clear yet (that won't become apparent until February).

I don't know why many football fans still believe Paris saint Germain is winning this season UEFA champions league, yes they are in a very good form no doubt, but that doesn't give me enough reason to think they're lifting the trophy for the third time in a row, they might seem unstoppable for now, but I believe it won't last till the end, as this is just a group stage match, and they can't be on this form all throughout the season, so I don't still believe they are winning it like many had believe, to me I'm seeing the likes of Bayern Munich, Barcelona, Arsenal, and Real Madrid.

When Paris Saint-German form was sloppy in the domestic league, i believed they will not win the champions league for the 3rd in row just like you, but the few games they played in the champions league this season shows that they are still the best team in the champions league and they have a good chance of lifting the champions league again and become the first team to win the champions league for the 3rd in a row, and i will not force you to believe Paris Saint-German will win the champions league the end will justify everything.

While PSG may appear flawless in every match, that does not mean the other teams are weak. It remains very difficult to determine who will emerge as the winner this year, as every team has a roughly equal chance. Being the most solid team at the start of the season never offers a full guarantee of becoming champions by the end of the competition sometimes, a single mistake or a momentary lapse in concentration at the back over the course of just one night is enough to eliminate even the strongest of teams. In this regard, caution is of the utmost importance and must be exercised in every match whether in attack or defense to avoid dropping crucial points when facing major teams.

What can you say about this picture and the stunning results? Remember, Como is a newcomer and they just got promoted to Serie A 2 years ago and today they are already in Europe. It seems that Hartono Group, the owner of Como, has facilitated Fabergas very well, making Como a surprise team. It's a relatively small team but has a combination of young and excellent players. Como is able to compete against UCL teams with a lot of experience, even able to punish Man United and recently score 9 goals. This is beyond my prediction, they really could become bigger if they continue to take their program seriously.

All of opponents beaten by Como with massive scores are mediocre clubs. Let them face a club in Real Madrid, PSG or Barcelona calibre. I believe they will be destroyed. That picture is not even mentioning their lost against Feyenoord, so what's wrong here?
Beside that they already thrashed by Intermilan at the domestic league. People are overhyping this club like this is a top tier club, but i think they're still a mid tier level team who is still trying to progress to move up.

I can't understand why people are calling them like a special team.  
I understand going from serie C to play in UCL is something special, but their boss also invested hundreds million to them.  

A lot people had low expectations for Como in the Champions League, and that is the reason why they are so surprised with their current results despite it toward average teams and why Como are getting all this hype. That is one thing about football, when a team is performing beyond people's expectations, it will become a topic of discussion for a while, and people can go to any length to hype them. So, I am not surprised by how people are hyping Como right now. If Como start messing up also, that is how people will begin criticising them because expectations for them are already high.

In the Champions League PSG is one of the best teams, while Barcelona is also the best in the Spanish league, but the difference between the two teams is that they have different goals in different tournaments. For example, Barcelona is more focused on winning the Spanish league trophy while PSG is focused on the Spanish league. Both teams are strong in their respective positions, but Barca will have the opportunity to perform consistently due to their strength and strategy, and the consistent mentality of their players. Hansi Flick's strategy and his outstanding work towards the team motivate the players to perform better.

for now there is not only one team in the champions league that can win the competition, but there are several teams that can come close to winning the challenge, in any case Paris Saint-Germain among all these teams is the best, but in any case it is not certain that in the end Barcelona could also win for example.

It's not as easy for them as it was in the seasons they won it.

Clearly, the UCL league is not as easy to predict as domestic leagues because every team has a different way of fighting in the UCL especially since almost all big teams aim to win the UCL trophy. 

Indeed, PSG is currently highly favored, not just because they are the defending champions, but also because they have defeated Man City and Barca, who are also contenders for the trophy this season. What I mean is that under Enrique, PSG has gotten even better not only do they have an advantage in squad depth, but they also have a mentality that’s very different from other teams. 

Besides, there are still many UCL matches left since it’s still the league phase, so predicting which team will win is difficult especially as the UCL journey is still at the group stage.

[Female King]

I don't know why they are giving Barcelona favorite to win the champions league, they have not shown anything significant in the champions league that point out that yes, they are favorite.

There are plenty of reason to consider Barcelona as favorite. The team has been in brilliant form right from start of the season. They won most of their match with big margin. But we got glimpse of their weakness in match against PSG and Madrid.

Yet we can not judge Barcelona based on just few match result. Despite their defeat against PSG, this team is by no mean weak. In previous two season, I saw PSG's unstable performance in first round. But the club managed to step up their performance in knockout round match, which enabled them to win Champions league two time in a row.

So dropping point in few match in 1st round is not any major issue for Barcelona. I am confident that the team will qualify for next round by finishing in top 8. I am looking forward to seeing how Barcelona performs in knockout rounds. This squad has full capability to win Champions league title.

There are no reasons to consider Barcelona favorite for the champions title, if it's because they won most of games with high a goals margin you should also know that most of the teams they played were underdogs, they lost to the two big teams they met which are psg and real madrid so why should they be considered first choice to win the title. There is no argument Barcelona is a good team, they posses the game and still win so i can't say they are bad, it's good to include them among teams they may win the title, properly one of these teams is going to win the champions league title this season, PSG, Bayern munich, Barcelona or Real madrid. I believe one will win it.

Barcelona should be one of the teams that are in the priority list to win the Champions League trophy. You may not find a second team as consistent as this team. Teams like PSG, Bayern Munich or Real Madrid are aggressive in winning but the teams are not consistent in their performance. But recently Barcelona performance has deteriorated a bit because of the loss against PSG and the loss against Real Madrid in the El Clasico match. Despite that, Barcelona is one of the favorite teams to win the trophy. The team gives more importance to winning the Spanish league title than winning the Champions League trophy. It is not easy to keep the players attention in two tournaments at a time so I think the team gives more importance to winning the Spanish league trophy. PSG the team that won the trophy in the last two seasons, will probably maintain their consistency this season as well.

You got it all wrong if you believe that winning the laliga trophy is more important to Barcelona than winning the champions league title, Barcelona has already won the laliga title twice in a row now if not even up to three times now so why would you think that the laliga will be more important to them than the prestigious champions league title.

The champions league title is bigger than the laliga and no team will prefer their domestic league title than the champions league title, am not discarding that Barcelona isn't on the list for the champions league title contenders, but there are also other teams that are included too which is the teams i earlier mentioned in my previous post.

I agree with you mate, I don't think any team in their right mind will prioritize winning the domestic league over being champions of Europe and same is applicable to Barcelona especially in their league where chances of the winning the league from the start is always 50-50 depending on the form of Real Madrid, at this point if we bottle the league and win the Champions League, I bet the fan base will be thrilled as long as they don't lose the El Classico'd

the Italians and those who follow football in Italy knew very well that Como would go on to win those matches, and that a new phenomenon is exploding, that of small teams that bring value to the Champions League, Como is a team that is playing a different type of football, and that those who are very big as a club are still unable to conceive because they are rooted in the old patterns of slow football.

I don't agree, these teams must be able to manage all the events that have national championships and international championships, in this case a team like Barcelona i believe must be able to manage the La Liga and the Champions League, they are teams designed precisely for this.

If Real Madrid win the Champions League, they will have compensated for their league failures, as they place more importance on the competition. However, they already won their first match against Barcelona, ​​and their fans are already very happy. If they win their next home game against Barcelona, ​​they will have won two big matches this year. They might face Barcelona again in the Champions League qualifiers. In that case, Real Madrid will need to work hard and intensely. For now, Real Madrid's form is improving. Since Vini's injury, Real Madrid has been playing better.

It's not as easy for them as it was in the seasons they won it.

Another reason why PSG stands a chance to win the 3rd Champions League title in a row in because they have met two big teams Manchester City and Barcelona who everyone thought that they will be able to stop them but unfortunately they couldn't. The other big teams which are Arsenal, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid will still face defeat should they meet PSG so this is literally why they are the favourites again. What even scares me about PSG is the way they are beating every team with many goals. Their first match in the UCL games they won 6:1 against Slovan Bratislava, won Manchester City by 4:2, won Barcelona 4:2 and won Villarreal 6:0 which is a total of 20 goals in just 4 UCL games. Arsenal and Bayern Munich doesn't seem do strong as they were last season so I don't even think they can make it to the finals.

Luis Enrique knows he has the best squad in Europe. The 3 peat is very possible for his team to win if Arsenal are stopped from going to the final. I think if Arsenal goes to the final with PSG, it will be a different result for Arsenal this time around. Surely, Barcelona have proven without any doubt that they are not in to win the Champions League. Real Madrid have been revived by Mourinho. However, no better test for them yet in the Champions League. Aside from that match against Barcelona, Real Madrid still need to test their strengths and weaknesses against a strong side in the Champions League.

It may seem like PSG are flawless but they aren't, they have their flaws just like any teams in the champions League, PSG could win the competition for the third consecutive time, besides  the other team don't match them in strength and overall performance, they could be hiding some of their special moves that we haven't seen yet.

The champions league isn't like the domestic leagues that a single team can dominate for decades, PSG are in a better form but I think arsenal or Bayern can end their two seasons reigns in the champions League, Arsenal couldn't end it when they had the chance  last season but a lot has changed about them, I think if they meet again in the final, arsenal will likely win.

I know Barcelona lost to PSG, but it's unfair to say they're not title contenders based on just one match. After all, they'll play two knockout matches, and these matches are open to any outcome. PSG might eliminate Barcelona in these two matches, like they did against Bayern Munich last year, but the opposite could happen. If PSG wins the championship this year, it will be their third title, making them only the second team in world football history to win it this way. While Real Madrid has been on the rise, I still think they're behind PSG.

PSG have won the Champions League in the last two seasons and this season they are also at the top of the list of possible winners of the trophy and their style of play seems to be much stronger than other teams. Last month they easily defeated the strong team Barcelona. Seeing their strength, anyone would guess that PSG might repeat the last two years and win the trophy. But I think a different team will win the trophy this season. Barcelona or Real Madrid will be especially dominant and Arsenal or Manchester City are also performing well. The team that can maintain their consistency until the end of the tournament will win the trophy.

So you mean if happens that PSG gets to the final of the UEFA champions League and meet with arsenal, Arsenal will win this time around right? That was the noise the other time, and you guys lost on penalty shoot out right, although I love your confidence and I will like that meeting to repeat again let's see what you guys have to give.

What you said about Barcelona in regards to the UEFA champions League competition is the fact, although we can not completely rule out the fact that things can still change or they put their strength in the Spanish laliga which is another option for them as they did last season, I may not want to comment on Madrid cause I'm still watching to see if this their recent improved form will continue, however, Mourinho have made much progress on the team since he took over as their manager.

[Adbitco]

However, 3 wins 1 defeat in 4 matches in this league phase still looks pretty good even though it has not been stable so bringing new players will make the situation new again in terms of chemistry and it will be better to impose with the squad in this half of the season and if needed they can start preparing improvements at the end of the season.

3 wins and a defeat in 4 matches in actually a good result, raking up 9 points out of 12 points so far is incredible, if I was a fan of the club, I would be hoping to repeat this on the other 4 matches if group stage to secure a spot on the next round instead of being involved in playoffs. This stats can actually keep you on the top 8 which is what all other teams are striving for after the 8 matches and if Liverpool has this, then it's all good, as far as I can remember based on when last I checked the table, it's PSG and Real Madrid I can remember still won all their matches after 4 matches played.

[SmartCharpa]

Liverpool's problem is not the players but the mentality. Their players are very good for midfield if talking about popularity but their mentality has still declined enough in recent seasons that this makes their form falter.

Since the beginning of the appointment of a new coach is indeed one of the problems that are a little difficult to solve for them so that if this problem is resolved then actually Liverpool could have improved its performance.
Some of the players brought in in the last few seasons like Wirtz, Frimpong or their latest recruits like Barcola are still not able to give their best performance even though on some occasions they played well but their performance is still not stable so it's the coach's job to improve their mentality now.

However, 3 wins 1 defeat in 4 matches in this league phase still looks pretty good even though it has not been stable so bringing new players will make the situation new again in terms of chemistry and it will be better to impose with the squad in this half of the season and if needed they can start preparing improvements at the end of the season.

The manager is responsible for everything. The starting squad against Fenerbahçe was the reason why they lost the game. Barcola is kind of player that miss a lot of chances right from his previous club, I was wondering why he started Barcola over Isak and Gakpo.

Iraola underestimated Fenerbahçe just because they struggled to get a point in their first three games of the tournament, while Fenerbahçe surprised them to get their first win of the season in the Champions League. I believe that if he started Isak and Gakpo from the beginning, Liverpool would have to win the match.

However, it’s not easy to come to a new club and change everything immediately, we saw how they struggled against Arne Slot last season. Isak barely scored under him, while the fans were complaining that they shouldn’t have signed him from the first place. But he is doing better this season.

[Luzin]

A lot people had low expectations for Como in the Champions League, and that is the reason why they are so surprised with their current results despite it toward average teams and why Como are getting all this hype. That is one thing about football, when a team is performing beyond people's expectations, it will become a topic of discussion for a while, and people can go to any length to hype them. So, I am not surprised by how people are hyping Como right now. If Como start messing up also, that is how people will begin criticising them because expectations for them are already high.

Of course, given Como's current condition, they do not have UCL experience except for the coach. So this result really makes me somewhat impressed, even though the quality of these 3 opposing teams is not top-level, they are very experienced in the UCL. Certainly, criticism and praise will always come to any club, not just Como, even Real Madrid experiences this. But this is slightly different because Como is a newcomer, and it is very different from a team experienced in the UCL. The main issue is that the better a team's results, the higher the praise they receive, and the greater the pressure they have to face when their team's performance starts to decline.
