[Football] UEFA Champions League Betting & Discussion Thread

[koang]

Arteta needs to adapt his tactics like Atletico Madrid did to stand a better chance and must ensure his team is mentally strong as Arsenal faces a tough test against Real Madrid in the UCL quarter-finals.

The Atletico Madrid coach has played Real Madrid a couple of times in their local league, so playing them in the Champions League would not have been any different. It's an entirely different thing for the Arsenal coach because this is actually his first real test against Real Madrid in a very competitive stage in a European competition.

Rudiger, Mbappe and the rest who were rumored to likely be missing this game because of their actions from their last Champions League game have merely been fined for it and will be available to play.

You are right, but at least from the match between Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid in the second leg of the UCL round of 16, Arteta can see how Simeone can motivate his players, and there is a side of Real Madrid's defense that can be exploited to achieve victory.

The fines given to Rudiger, Mbappe, and several other players will certainly benefit Madrid because they will still be able to play, but this is not an excuse for Arteta not to beat Madrid.

Arsenal have to find Real Madrid's weak points, and they seem to have more of them now. They lost their last game against Valencia in La Liga, although their defeat was also due to being very unlucky in my opinion.

Arteta must have studied everything he could do to win this game, but we'll see if his players can implement it well or not.

I don't think anything will change in the outcome of this match. Despite people giving Arsenal hope on winning the game. Madrid can be careless when it comes to other competitions but not in UCL, because they're more deadly. I hope Arsenal defense will be able to stand the pressure from Madrid attack because they are very dangerous.

If they want to win, then Aston Villa must learn from Liverpool's defeat when facing Paris Saint Germain. There it is very clear where Paris Saint Germain is more prominent and they can anticipate that.

Liverpool failed against PSG, sure Aston Villa don't use the same tactics when they play against PSG. I'm sure Aston Villa will focus much on their defense, they won't try to play very offensive. If Aston Villa use the tactic of counter-attack, I think it will be suitable. Aston Villa has many great players in attacking line (Rashford, Asensio, Watkins, etc).

I will not expect much from Aston Villa, but I want to see them give something interesting and if they are lucky they can advance to the semifinals. We'll see how far they go this season.

Although Aston Villa isn't a favorite team but I see a chance for this team to beat PSG. Aston Villa actually has a nice squad, they also has reputable coach (Unai Emery). If Aston Villa has a luck and they play with their best, they may go to the next round.

This season is for Barcelona, they are really in form, they have won almost of their matches  this season, Raphinha, Lewandowski, Feran Torres, Yamal, this guy's are really on edge to bring the coup home and I trust they can do it.

I like your optimism about the Barcelona club. Because I think actually the majority of us also have almost the same thoughts when it comes to Barcelona's performance. but about becoming champion maybe that's still not certain. Because teams that look strong sometimes lose to teams that are not favorites. At UCL things like that often happen. Even though it is sometimes quite annoying, surprises at UCL do happen a lot.

UCL is not a domestic league that only consist of clubs from the same league. UCL is the combination of all top four champions in their various domestic league. I will not also come to conclusions that Barcelona have won the league because they can still get defeated and kicked out of the competition in the dying minutes. However, I expect to see them in the finals.

They have won their games at home but so far, it was Laliga games they had very easy probably because it was a usual game with similar teams they are used to but Champions League brings different teams together to challenge each other and you might even be surprised the team you never expected to win might be the one to win.

Everyone never expected Liverpool to leave so soon but they were humble by PSG that doesn't go far in the Premier League, the pattern of  Champions league is no longer by how good you are, you can be good in your games and still lose here, only time will tell about Barcelona.

My predictions for the 1st leg of the quarterfinals:
Bayern Vs Inter: draw
Arsenal Vs Real Madrid: draw
Barcelona Vs Dortmund: Barcelona
PSG Vs Aston Villa: PSG

I have low confidence in PSG winning, I think, in general, the Premier League is much stronger than French Ligue 1, but I was impressed how dominant PSG was against Liverpool, it could mean they've found a formula for playing against English teams.

And finally today the UCL will start again for the quarter-final first leg. Today's schedule is Bayern vs Inter Milan and Arsenal vs Real Madrid.

These two matches are difficult to predict. And I still find it quite difficult to make a choice. My choices are still changing. What do you think? is there a favorite team?

Excited moment waiting for finally come again, UEFA Champion League quarter final first leg match and today have two matches Arsenal vs Real Madrid and Bayern vs Inter.
As Madrid fans prefer for watching my favorite teams although Bayern vs Inter are another interested match, I think quarter final round difficult for predicting which one favorite team win tonight, Madrid or Arsenal.

All teams quarter final of Champion League have good performed in domestic league, Inter and Bayern leading domestic league standings and difficult predicting which one more stronger today for first leg match?

Bayern or Inter Milan and Arsenal or Madrid vote your favorite qualify teams to semifinal.

Yep. This mid-week. Mid-week madness, football fans feast, and we will know the results. We shall see who gets cooked, but it won't be easy for Arteta...
Valencia beat Real Madrid, and I won't forget that, but there is a 60% chance of Real Madrid winning, and if Arsenal wins over Madrid, it will be a surprise in the middle of the week.
This is gonna be fun to watch. Arsenal fans are probably already booking their tickets for the next round... of the Europa League. just kidding

The Arsenal vs. Madrid game appears to be the big game tonight. It is a tough game, but I think Arsenal will win narrowly at home. The last time these two teams met in the Champions League was in 2006, and Arsenal won thanks to a brilliant performance by Arsenal legend Thierry Henry.

Both teams will be without several key players due to injuries. The absence of Gabriel Magalhaes will be felt by Arsenal's back line, unless Kiwior puts up a strong performance. Madrid will undoubtedly miss key players, particularly Courtois in goal.

Looking at both teams' recent performances, Arsenal is the more informed team, and Arsenal will take advantage of Madrid's defensive struggles to punish Madrid in the Emirates.

Well we can't predict the game for now because all the two teams have strength but from previous games performances, Arsenal is leading with more goals and in my prediction in this game, predict for Arsenal to win the game. And it because many key players of Real Madrid is out of the team as it is. Aurelien T has been suspended from the team and others have injuries so it will be difficult for real Madrid to win the game. And if they play draw it is their luck.

Arsenal will surely miss the leadership of Gabriel defensively, however in my candid opinion this tie would be won or lost on the offensive end not defensive one, Arsenal, even if Gabriel were to be available for the match would likely be unbale to stop Real Madrid's attack from scoring, it's now going to be left to Arsenal if they can match or surpass Real Madrid with their own attack. Hopefully the availability of Saka and Martinelli will help bolster their chances.
