The conditions are very big for Napoli now that they are in the final because apart from them avoiding some of the favorite clubs there, they are also likely to face another Serie A duo because I still feel that in other matches Inter can win against Benfica and of course this can also be an advantage which is real for Napoli because they already have good enough data to face Serie A clubs. Even though in this case it will take a struggle but still their chances of being in the final are bigger if you look at the line-up of clubs in the current bracket.

This is clearly something that is difficult to predict because indeed the two teams currently deserve to be in the final even more difficult than the previous PSG and Bayern possibilities.
But of course this will be interesting because if you look at the previous conditions Madrid also passed the same club as Bayern now and of course if Bayern wins in this game when talking about matchology last season their chance of the final will be there.

I disrespect no Italian with my prediction, looking at the champions league fixture, there's no doubt that the winner is definitely coming from the side that has Chelsea facing Real Madrid and Manchester city facing Bayern Munich. Napoli has had an awesome run this season and they're having the less competitive side of the quarter finals and semis finals. I have no doubt that they can make it to the finals but there's something that this smallers games does to you. It weaken your teams that when they reached the stage that they were meant to perform, they can't can't because they have been facing a weaker team since. This is exactly what happened to Manchester City when they faced Chelsea in the 2021 season finale.

Chelsea won Real Madrid and went on to lift the champions league trophy for the 2021 season, Real Madrid defeated Chelsea and went on to lift the trophy for the 2022 season. Now they met again, and they both have Bayern Munich or Manchester city to face for anyone who progresses from the quarter finals stages. How on earth do you expect any if this teams to lose to Napoli if they were to orogresyform their weaker team. I think checks can progress to the finals, we haven't been playing badly and I believe when it comes to the champion league we always have something extra to prove we deserve to be recognized as one of England best in recent times.

Certainly, Bayern has done it and they did their best.
here, whatever the performance, victory is a must to be able to win the competition. Which club that enables optimizing the chance and getting more goals will win the match? Even though a club has a much better performance during the match if they are not ably leading at the number of the goal and should lose, it means nothing. Just win, victory is the only solution. Bayern man City will be a tight competition, let's see how each club can handle another

I also think the same because I guess there will be 2 Italian teams in the next round. I predict Napoli and Inter Milan will qualify for the next round. Since only 4 teams in the semifinal, surely a big chance for 1 Italian team to go to the final round. Although I'm not sure which Italian team to be in the final round, I hope Napoli will be the finalist.

Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, and Man City are experienced teams in UCL. They are all big teams, too. But Real Madrid has better luck in UCL. I personally think that they have a big chance to reach the final round again this season. While for Bayern Munich and Man City, one of them must be eliminated in this round.

Haaland may have enough experience in facing teams from representatives of the Bundesliga, as he did when he faced Leipzig in the round of 16 by scoring 5 goals. however bayern munich are a very competent team in the Champions league they have strong ambition in every game they have played.  Pep will be up against his former team therefore Manchester City have two people who really know the Bundesliga team.

this match is a big match that will be decisive to become the strongest in the Champions league. I prefer Manchester City to be the winner in this match because the mentality of the Manchester City players in the Champions League this season is ambitious enough to win the UCL trophy.

Manchester City v Bayern Munich matchup looks quite balanced to me. Or maybe I can say Manchester City are even one step ahead of their opponent in this. The changes in the squads of these teams so far make me favour Manchester City more. Because there is a fully visible Haaland effect over Manchester City in this season. He has been scoring like a goal machine since the beginning of the season. Especially his performance against Leipzig was something very interesting with 5 goals.

On the other hand Bayern Munich have parted ways with Lewandowski which was a huge loss for them. But they have still been able to preserve their strength and discipline especially in the Champions League. Guardiola just need to warn and prepare his players strongly for this matchup. Otherwise they might have the same result PSG had against Bayern Munich.

Well, this match is a big match, this will attract many eyes to watch. Both are big clubs and they are on their great performance during this season. So, many people have expectations that one of them or both are in the final. But actually, there are also some candidates taht are also more expected for the final, Real Madrid. So, this will be more interesting to see one of them to be in the final vs Real Madrid 
but once more, football is unpredictable, even PSG has failed. So, no one can predict accurately who will win and will be in the final.

No chance Chelsea make the final, they’ve spent record breaking amounts on largely mediocre footballers. I’ve never seen such a display of irresponsible, wasteful spending. I’m surprised Potter is still in a job. I have no doubt that Real will deal with Chelsea comfortably. Even if by some miracle Chelsea get to the semi final they have Bayern or Man City awaiting them.

If you want to bet on an outsider or a less fashionable team, look no further than Napoli. I really like the look of them.

Reflecting on previous conditions, Chelsea also failed last season during the Tuchel era, even though at that time they were in pretty good shape, now they still have a lot of gaps so even though some people still think this is possible, I agree with what you said, this very small of the possibility of Madrid qualifying.
Potter still needs to make a real splash for Chelsea's form if they are to be counted on.

Initially I also thought so, that there was no chance for Chelsea to qualify for the semifinals by getting rid of Real Madrid. But in fact, there are still people or users here who think and or predict Chelsea will qualify for the final, of course that is a prediction that is a minority prediction. Because of course, the performance of Real Madrid and Chelsea this season is clearly very different.

Therefore, I am personally very surprised when someone assumes that Chelsea will be able to beat Real Madrid, because the record on paper is of course very clear that at this moment Chelsea is not having a good performance. Therefore, it is very unlikely that Chelsea will be able to beat Real Madrid, let alone to get to the final so obviously that is a result that will not happen.

Chelsea's job will be really difficult against Real Madrid in this stage. I don't give Chelsea a big chance about eliminating them and most people would think the same as well. Because I just can't see a big difference between Chelsea and Liverpool now. Both of these teams are having a year which is full of struggle. Chelsea are trying to improve their game recently but it is still very difficult for them to resist Real Madrid.

Real Madrid are one of the strongest candidates of the title and the last champions at the same time. They are great at benefiting from vulnerabilities of their opponent now. Chelsea's end can be similar to Liverpool's against them.

The statistics are indeed in Chelsea's favor for the last three games. But I didn't hesitate to choose Madrid to qualify for the semi-finals. My hope is that Madrid were able to win by a large margin. This is because their second leg has to go to England. As for Bayern Munich and Man City, this is more exciting because we will see Haaland's proof. They will be up against an experienced team in the UCL. But looking at the statistics of three games, Munich can only win once. The first leg will be at the Emirates stadium, maybe Man City will find it difficult to win. But I think Ibang's results are good enough for Munich.

Milan is a team that really wants to go far, and the way they are playing, they have very good fútbol, I would like to see Ibra play because he is a very emblematic player, he gives Milan another tonic when he is inside, In particular, Milan have everything to be able to win their games, only sometimes I don't understand their strategies, I know that the technical director has his reasons for not using a formation that is quite focused on attack, because he has it to do it, on the other hand Tottenham I think Harry Kane is the best player here, and thanks to him I see Tottenham in great shape and showing beautiful fútbol.


Eventually Real Madrid is a favorite team to win the "Orejona" it is not a myth or anything like that, I know that for now Chelsea is going through a very good moment, because they have won some victories, but I don't think that they can do nothing against Real Madrid, however, anything can happen, Chelsea's football has improved a lot, on the other hand, Napoli is a team that has a lot to do to reach the final, but they will meet a great rival, for now what remains for us is to see which team prepares best for this UCL, it looks very interesting, anything can happen.

I remain convinced that Napoli will do a good job against Milan in the quarter-finals later. even though in the first leg Nopoli will play as an away team, it is difficult for Milan to overthrow Napoli which incidentally is currently in a very positive trend. it can be said, at this time Napoli is in a state of on fire even though it had experienced two defeats in its domestic league.

For Milan, their performance has not been so stable this season. even before that, Stefano Pioli's team had experienced a downward trend before they bounced back. unfortunately, their performance is not yet stable. but that doesn't mean Milan doesn't have a chance, it's just that the chance they have is very small when compared to Napoli.

Meanwhile, once again Madrid is the favorite to qualify for the next phase. because, the opponent they will face is currently in a phase that is not okay. although we can't take it for granted, however, on paper, Madrid has a higher probability than Chelsea to qualify for the next stage.
On the other hand, the City vs Bayern match should have been the top match, a final that was too premature. IMO, one of the teams that won this match, is more entitled to go to the final round match.

The Manchester City-Bayern Munich match was an early final.  Bayern Munich had come out of 2 tough matches with Psg.  Maybe they were expecting an easier opponent and they were matched with the toughest opponent.  I think we will meet two very good matches.

Drawing the Champions League quarter-finals is little interesting because ther eare have potential for Serie A team to qualify for the finals, but there is still a possibility that if Benfica is able to win against Inter Milan in the quarter-finals and beat the winner between Napoli vs Milan, Serie A might not. got a team in champions league final.

Chances for Serie A team to advance to the Champions League final depend on the outcome of the Benfica vs Inter match, if Inter can beat Benfica then for the first time since the 2015 season when Juventus made it to the final it will come true again this season. Looking forward with Inter Milan could eliminated Benfica and make Serie A team get one slot for Champion League final team.

I don't know who is the favorite in Bayern Munich against City. I think it comes down to the form of Haaland's day, that is a player who will decide this game or not. Man City has Haaland, Bayern don't have a player of that caliber I think. But they are both very strong teams, as a team collectively but also individually. The first game is in the week of April 10, so in just over 3 weeks we will see the first game. I'm looking forward to this match. For Real Madrid, this seems like a golden opportunity to advance to the semi-finals. Chelsea is an ideal opponent on paper, I think for a CL quarterfinal, but Chelsea may also think that of Real Madrid.

I would guess that they possibly could, City has Haaland after all and I agree that he could be amazing and beat them, but the reality is that we are talking about a situation where it won't be getting that much easy, Bayern is Bayern after all and even though City would be my favorites as well, I wouldn't really consider them to be that great at this moment, I would consider them to be equal powers going against each other with one of them have a special player that breaks the tie.

If Haaland plays well then they can easily win, but if Haaland is defended well and doesn't play that well then I would guess that Bayern could end up getting a win too.

The results of the UCL draw are very unpredictable. I think that the Man City vs Bayern match is the final too early. Because it so happens that the two teams are the most favored in percentage terms for the UCL champions this season. They had also beaten each other in the UCL the previous season and had been in the same group in the group stage. Though I hope they can meet in the final. But how else can that be the result of the drawing, you have to accept it as it is.
