in the Champions League a team that looks unfavorable can also give their best game and surprise everyone. I will probably favor Milan to qualify for the Finals. but there are still doubts also to make a bet. maybe I'll wait for a closer time. before the meeting between the two in the Champions League, there are still several matches in Serie A. there are still several possibilities that could happen. but I still hope that both of them will compete with the best strategy and best squad.

I'm not sure how to put this into words, but Real Madrid has something different from any other team when it plays the Champions League, you can say it's tradition, luck, magic...I don't know

I agree with several of you when you say that Manchester City is much more prepared for the Champions League, and in my opinion they are the team that is playing better and very deserving of winning that first title.
I am thinking a lot about who to bet on for the qualification and I am almost decided to bet on Manchester City, but there is always that doubt if Vini Jr, Benzema or Rodrygo can do something amazing.
Halaand is a very strong point for M. City because in a few minutes he has the ability to do just like Benzema and Rodrygo did last season, practically win a match "all by himself", even with the team not playing a good match.

Something also worries me that many times teams like M City do an almost perfect championship and when they face Real Madrid they lose. And Real Madrid is the opposite, they start badly, a bit discredited, get in a "crisis" and suddenly they are in the final.

In the match between Inter and Milan I don't have a good guess even though I have also watched some good matches from both teams.
And I think the champion will be one of the two teams from the M. City vs Real Madrid match.
Anyway I am analyzing here the best bet to make in the semi final.

I can agree with you about a point that Manchester City were still really strong last season despite not having Erling Haaland. Especially in Etihad there was a goal duel between them and Real Madrid as far as I can remember - it finished by 4-3. The problem was in Santiago Bernabeu. In fact they got ahead first then but Real Madrid's comeback in only two minutes in the last moments was amazing and this was the turning point for Real Madrid at the same time.

I don't say it was totally by luck of course as Real Madrid also made a big effort. However their luck was also making an extra contribution in the second leg. This time I think that Real Madrid wouldn't be able to repeat this scenario in a similar situation as it is an a little rare incident in football. Besides Manchester City can make sure of it thanks to Haaland's beast mode also.  

yeah me too. I can't even believe how strong intermilan when it comes to the UCL compared with the domestic league. The match against benfica has proven if intermilan was even able winning against a strong team from another league even though it's still struggling in serie a due to the bad performance that has been facing by intermilan. As you can see that if intermilan has ever got a few losses in a row in serie a. it seems like that inter potentially to win UCL rather than serie a.
Lukaku is not performing so well in any match, but he will always become the main starter to face another team. It's actually unpredictable.

It doesn't matter where intermilan was playing and it always became equal to the opponent. benfica was not even able to beat intermilan even though benfica was playing at home.
What a surprise from intermilan. I heard so many rumors if intermilan will try to return lukaku back to the chelsea again.

With a head to head like that it looks like Inter will win this game again and I think Inter have been more consistent in the Champions League this season than in the domestic league. We know the middle of the season has been really bad for Inter to be able to get the most out of it in the domestic league and they have often suffered back-to-back defeats. But on the other hand Milan does have a pretty good record in the domestic league and I quite agree that results in the domestic league are not a definite reference for favoring Milan in the Champions League semifinal match. We know very well that the Inter champion league mode is far more dangerous for its opponents.

Inter milan has dominated the match against ac milan in the last 5 meetings between the two, where inter milan was able to end 3 matches with a win and 1 defeat and 1 draw which made the bookies give odds for inter milan as the winner in match.

So, if you see that opportunity, I think the bookies has given the right oods in the meeting between the two in the Champions League semifinals. but in their performance in Serie A, Inter Milan is lagging behind AC Milan in the standings table, but that is not a strong reference if AC Milan is better than them.

The performance from Inter Milan in the Champion league Quartee final is what I can't believe even till date..  Benfica has been my best option to qualify to the semi final right from the first leg of the quarter-final clash, but this was changed by inter Milan. But despite their strength in the quarter final, I still see Ac Milan above them. Reason being that, Napoli wouldn't have been an easy side for inter Milan to defeat if their quarter final clash was fixed against Napoli. Ac milan is my favorite side to get to the UCL final.

Inter Milan had a better performance compared to Ac Milan and in the last five games between these two teams Inter Milan won three games while Ac MIlan won only one match and they had a draw, but Ac MIlan had an amazing performance recently against Napoli and they have improved their performance that's why I think A MIlan can have a better chance.

Opportunities this season will be quite different for Man City, because apart from a solid player composition, of course they have started to make many changes so that they will be able to make it difficult for Real Madrid. But apart from all that, Madrid is still Madrid, which has a myriad of ways to always escape pressure from opponents. Either what is often referred to as strong luck or how they calmly face their opponents. Meanwhile, Man City continues to insist that this season's Champions League trophy will not be wasted and will do everything possible. If indeed Man City manages to beat Madrid and advance to the final, it means that their journey will be smoother. Not only in the Champions League, but they are also likely to get the potential for the Premier League and FA Cup trophies.

As the date for the first leg of the UEFA Champions League semi final tie between Real Madrid and Manchester City draws nearer, Real Madrid will surely be beating their chest that they can still eliminate the Manchester club like they've done before and despite Manchester City's current intimidating form Madrid will approach that game without any form of fear because they know their is capable of beating any club in the world at the moment.
But Manchester City won't be taking chances like they did last season and also they currently have a very lethal Striker in Erling Haaland whose presence alone sends huge concerns to defenders and that is another factor City lacked last season. Real Madrid without doubt us big club and the most successful in the competition but I think Manchester City is gonna play in the final at their expense.

It will be so competitive because this two team are strong teams and the most favourite teams to win the Champions league. If Real Madrid still win champions league this season,  this will prove they are the best team in champions league and their experience is an advantage to always win.

Manchester City has the best chance to win the Champions League. Real Madrid is a strong enough team and Manchester City will have to play with great strategy and responsibility to secure victory against this team. But I believe if Manchester City can secure victory in the semi-final, they will be able to secure victory in the final easily.

Manchester City also has a revenge mission after last season they were eliminated very disappointingly. Both of these teams still have the same hope of being in the final place.
But I don't agree that Real Madrid is better than Manchester City now as a whole, because in the Champions League and in the domestic league they appear more consistently than what Real Madrid experienced.

Another epic match to happen before the end of this season. It seems like that manchester city will be using all of its resources to beat real madrid. Manchester city got kicked out from UCL last season by real madrid. This will be revenge by manchester city to kick real madrid as long as manchester city will able to perform even better. Manchester city has been getting really good striker at this moment. it's likely that city will be able to be as good as madrid. The match between these clubs in the last season was also running with high tension.

It seems like that the same tension will be coming again to this match. This has become the most awaited match by so many people right now. Im still in my first pick real madrid as a team that will be going to the final.

I see no reason for manchester city to let real madrid goes to the final. Manchester city has been coming to this stage. It will be so bad if the city will be losing against real madrid.
IMO real madrid is still my favorite club in this match. If we are comparing how good the performance from real madrid compared with manchester city and we can take a conclusion if real madrid is a perfect team while city is still below real madrid.

quality-wise Inter Milan and AC Milan are very even and I don't think anyone has a greater percentage of qualifying for the final because both have the same possibility.
if you look at it mentally and confidently, I think the AC Milan team is better because in terms of experience the team at the UCL stage AC Milan is better than Inter Milan in the past even though this will not have a big effect for now.

for betting options we have different speculations, but personally I will bet on AC Milan in this semifinal match because the odds are big and the odds are the same so I think it's quite worth it for a bet that will win more money.

Now they are not in a good state in Serie A, and AC Milan is still slightly better than Inter Milan. However, the Champions League matches will be very different. The preparations they have made still have time to make changes to their form of play. I'm not too early to say who will be able to win, maybe I'll see how their last game was to conclude something, and try to bet on the match.

Manchester City and Real madrid were the favourite in last season and Real madrid was able to become the champion of the league.  Comparing this two teams this season they have something that is not common.  Manchester City scores more goals in their games and this makes me feel Manchester City has more chances of winning.

Actually, if we talk about Inter Milan's performance in Serie A and in the Champions League. so I think there will be a bit of confusion about Inter Milan's performance itself. Because at the same time we know that Inter Milan is playing quite badly in Serie A. They even lost a few weeks ago to a team that is considered weaker than them. But in the same week it turned out that Inter Milan actually played very well against Benfica in the Quarter-finals.

 In fact, due to the poor consistency of Inter Milan in Serie A, there have been many negative issues circulating regarding their coach, Simone Inzaghi. But after tracing the news, it does not contain much truth. it's all just speculation and conjecture.

And in the last match of Inter Milan in Serie A it turned out that Inter seemed to have returned to their good performance like in the middle of the season when Inter had sat in 2nd place in the standings. because in the last match Inter Milan was able to beat Empoli with a quite satisfying score of 0-3.

And there are interesting things about Ac Milan and Inter Milan this season. that is, they have advantages and disadvantages that complement each other. namely Ac Milan has an advantage in their attack. even the effectiveness of Ac Milan's counterattack was very frightening and always endangered the opponent's goal. but the drawback is their back line. but it's different from Inter Milan who actually have advantages at their back which are quite solid. but in terms of the effectiveness of the attack, it turns out that Inter Milan is actually not good enough. so many opportunities they waste in every game. Inter are good at building attacks but bad at finishing.

I personally will favor Inter Milan. because Inter Milan was even able to make things difficult for Napoli in Serie A when Osimhen also played. but Ac Milan only excelled against Napoli when Napoli was without Osimhen. and when Osimhen strengthened Napoli we could see Ac Milan having a hard time against Napoli.

if we as fans maybe we would prefer Ac Milan because in terms of experience Ac Milan is more dominant while Inter Milan doesn't have too much experience of winning in this champion's league.
well, it's only natural that bookies favor Inter Milan only with the last match which dominates more, but if in the final leg, Ac Milan will definitely give a very good performance and get rid of Inter Milan.
to be honest, I also prefer Ac Milan over Inter Milan because if you look at the way Ac Milan competes, Ac Milan is actually superior, it's just that Inter Milan is lucky to be able to beat Ac Milan several times.

The match between Real Madrid and Manchester City is going to be a really competitive match like no one has seen in the previous season. So I can't predict this match but I want to keep Inter Milan ahead in the match between AC Milan and Inter Milan.
