[Football] UEFA Champions League Betting & Discussion Thread

I think last night's games seem to have been easy to predict, 90% of the games went in favour of the bookies favourite which tells me Tuesday games are easy to predict unlike what follows through for Wednesday and Thursday, as can be seen from the other weeks results.

Disappointed with that PSG result because I thought they would catch Arsenal napping, but instead it's PSG that was caught napping to allow them 2 first half goals 

RB Salzburg also produced a disappointing performance to be beaten 4 nil at home which was clearly not a champions league performance!

Barcelona, Manchester City, Dortmund all breezed through easily and I expect this to continue and find themselves in the group of 16

yesterdays match all were very impressive a lot of goals and assist many chances and passes. Almost all the match played yesterday scored very amazing goals and they all score more than usual , the performance were very unbelievable from the teams. Teams should keep going like this I guess even the least player will be encouraged and very committed to the teams

the bookmarkers' odds spoke clearly for the PSG match
I don't understand how a team with so much talent and so much money spent can't take off and play properly
it was clear that the opponent was very strong, but there was no chance of a reply
PSG conceded the match without even reacting .. zero reactions

This is not a match for Leverkusen, but they managed to secure 3 points from one of the big teams from Serie A, Ac Milan. They managed to win with a narrow score of 1 goal.

Leverkusen seems to be able to talk a lot in the Champions League, this is their second win and get perfect points from the 2 matches they have played. This result is a very valuable result for them, because they have the opportunity to go far in the Champions League this season.

To me the 2 biggest games tonight are Lille Vs Real Madrid and Aston Villa Vs Bayern Munich.
In both cases, home teams are underdogs and we have a very similar odds in both matches. You could get around x1.60 for an away team to win.
I'm not sure about Lille Vs Real, as I don't follow the French league, but as for the second game, I don't think it will be an easy game for Bayern, I think the odds are misplaced and AV should not be that much of an underdog. I wouldn't go as far as to say AV should be the favourite, but I expect it to be a quite even game, and therefore I think a double-chance bet for AV to win or draw is a good value bet and could yield you around x2.20.

Of course, there was no surprises from yesterday games because all the strong teams won their match because they were playing with weak clubs. The only club that lost their match is Milan. Although, Leverkusen performance this season is much better than Milan which was why Leverkusen was able to gain full three points in the match. Milan performance is not improving at all, and they might not be able to qualify from the group stage if they continue in such poor performance.

Arsenal's victory over PSG was a well-deserved victory. Because they played very effectively and didn't waste many of the opportunities they got. But if someone says PSG wasn't lucky enough in that match then I will also understand that. Because PSG's several shot attempts were always unlucky because several times they only hit the crossbar. But in terms of attack quality, I think Arsenal is much better. They were so calm when they penetrated the PSG defense. And besides that, PSG's defense doesn't seem to be as good as Arsenal's. So Arsenal's victory was indeed deserved in this match. And I think Arsenal will continue to go further this time.

Bayern vs Aston villa is on
What do you people think about the match who will win the match seems both team have great players and record

Liverpool rarely disappoints us. And currently Liverpool have also managed to take a 1 goal lead in the match against Bologna. And I don't think this will be the only goal in this match. Because I believe Liverpool will win this match with more goals.

The match that made me quite disappointed was the Benfica vs Atletico Madrid match because at this time I didn't expect Atletico Madrid to be caught off guard by 1 goal behind. And Benfica even played better with several of their attack attempts that managed to penetrate Atletico Madrid's defense. I hope Atletico Madrid can turn things around quickly.

The Aston Villa vs Bayern match really attracted a lot of people's attention. but I'm sure Bayern will win the match. Because in terms of squad quality and depth, I think Bayern is indeed superior to Aston Villa.

Yeah definitely Liverpool is taking the lead we expected much more than the one goal . They are really playing an impressive game , more possession and much passes , definitely they will close the match up with winning . A great goal from allister.


Bayern at the other hand are trying to play a good game and making chances , the first goal was cancel it was offside and it was very unfortunate. We are expecting more from Bayern soon

Super Sub Duran scores for Aston Villa again this season, and a very important goal for Aston Villa, Bayern are trailing by a goal. Imagine Betting on Aston Villa to win this game and they actually do end this game in a victory.

Aston Villa have the lead! Astonishing!!!

Aston Villa where did that come from 

I know Wednesday fixtures usually come with surprise results but I didn't think Villa would get maximum points against a giant like Bayern, and btw big teams lose by narrow margins and that's what we witnessed this evening, well played Villa.

Another disappointing team has to be Atletico Madrid, boy I gat no words for these lads ...conceding 4 goals without a reply against a team like Benfica wtf..worst result should have been say 2-1, 1-0, 2-0 not 4nil in a champions leagues fixture !!!

The main reason I thought Bayern will have a hard time playing Villa, is that Villa is a top 5 premier league team, and I don't think many people understand how much stronger the premier league is than other European leagues.

But, to be perfectly honest, despite AV winning 1-0 and my prediction turning out to be correct, I think I was wrong to think it would be an even game. I haven't watched it yet, but looking only at the stats, Bayern clearly was a dominating team, with possession of 70% and shots/shots on target of 17/7 compared to Villa's 5/2. So looks like AV's win was mostly due to luck.

Today's match is very different from yesterday's match. Even some are very different from the results of the top clubs that competed yesterday, although not all, but there are some top clubs whose results are really surprising.

LOSC vs Real Madrid -> Real Madrid LOST 1 - 0
Benfica vs Atletico Madrid -> Benfica humiliated Atletico Madrid 4 - 0
Aston Villa vs Bayern Munich -> Aston Villa defeated Bayern Munich 1 - 0

Well, Real Madrid really misses Kross, who controls the ball in the club during the match, no matter how strong the front line is, but the movement of the ball is quite different from when Kross was still there.

Aston Villa success continues two consecutive winning in UEFA Champion League and Bayern Munich have got first loss in this season from the top five Premier League top standings position. Unbelievable after looking the match statistic, Bayern Munich have more dominance with 70% ball possession and 17 shots of 7 on target but difficult for scoring goal.
Aston Villa although not play dominance with 2 shots on target but success scoring one goal and secure three home points get opportunity reach the top standings position in Champion League.
