The Blues will really do their best in this match between them and Dormund to move to the next level of this campaign but the visiting team has more advantage in this game considering their exiting home the scored against Chelsea when Chelsea visited them previously, Chelsea at this stage of champions league is very dangerous because of their previous records.
It should be pretty easy game for Benfika. They are stronger team and have such a big chance to advance to next round.
Benfica, roughly speaking they are 80% they will qualify for the next round. for the ongoing match where the match entered the 30th minute no goals have occurred so far. it looks like the hosts are capable of playing better and have carried out some pretty good attacks.two yellow cards for Lang and Yaremchuk in this first half I think it will be a bad game for brugge if they play rough in taking the ball from benfica players. Brugge was more ambitious to score early but they found it difficult to do so because benfica has quite a good defence.
The erratic performance made me worry about Real Madrid. After they won from Liverpool Real Madrid have not been able to win in a few games. But the three-goal difference in the first leg might make me a little more optimistic Real Madrid will qualify in the next phase.
This is because Liverpool just won 7-0 against Man United. Even though mentally Madrid's quality is much better than Man United. Liverpool still have a chance even a little bit. Making three goals at the Bernabeu won't be easy.
Don't worry too much buddy, Real Madrid won't let Liverpool qualify for the quarter-finals even if they win the match.This is because Liverpool just won 7-0 against Man United. Even though mentally Madrid's quality is much better than Man United. Liverpool still have a chance even a little bit. Making three goals at the Bernabeu won't be easy.
Liverpool were indeed shocked the world after conquering the red devils with a score of 7-0, it was a fantastic victory for them. However, Liverpool did not look convincing when they met Real Madrid in the Champions League. It's been kind of a curse for Liverpool so far against Real Madrid, I mean Liverpool have struggled to win match, so I'm not going to worry about that.
Chelsea team will absolutely do everything today to qualify to the next round, if they got eliminated this will absolutely be the end of the season for them, Dortmund have the advantage because they won the first leg with one goal but this may not be enough, Chelsea started the match in a good way and if they continue this way i think they will score one or 2 goals
Chelsea will lose this match full-time today because Dortmund is a strong team. Although Chelsea win their last match but l it's a bit complicated for them to win tonight's match
I personally think, that Dortmund will win today. Yes it is true, that Dortmund has won 11 games in a row so far in this year but if you have watched the games of Dortmund then it was pretty obvious, that they were really lucky to win a few of those games. In at least 4 or 5 matches of those 11 they were not the better team, but still somehow managed to win it. It was the same in the first leg against Chelsea because the blues had way more big chances to score back then but just were not efficient enough.
The game today is running for a few minutes now and so far Chelsea is completely dominant. If the game continues like that, then it is only a matter of time before Chelsea will score.
Benfica just scored in first minute but it was offside.
My money is on Benfica win tonight. Joao Mario is looking for a legit goal now.

Because it seems that looking at PSG as a whole, we can predict that they will be eliminated in the last 16 of the Champions League, although we cannot say this prediction is accurate information, moreover, keep in mind that they will play Bayern Munich, this is one of the candidates. a good team in league competence, but this is football anything can happen, soon we will see the second Leg match between PSG and Bayern Munich which will be held on 09 March.
Maybe this one is the hardest match to predict about the game between Bayern Munich and PSG. We know Bayern Munich is a strong team and the first team in Germany where they are the first hope for the Bundesliga title every year however they are right now racing with Durmound for the title while PSG got powerful forwards like Mbappe and they can hope for victory in this game the last time PSG played in the home while this time they have to play in Allianz Arena where Bayern Munich can have more benefits and I guess Bayern Munich will have more chance.
Which, of course, has a greater chance for both of them to be obtained by Bayern Munich, in the first leg match PSG was unable to lead the match at its own cage, now in the second match they will visit Bayern Munich where of course Bayern Munich has a good chance to be able to lead this second leg. . Psg itself has a very strong forward line with the placement of 3 big players, and I think this will be an obstacle for Munich, but I think they have anticipated it.
Bayern Munich is a big team and one of the good candidates in the League, this is the match between the two big teams where both teams have quite good performance and players who are quite shrewd, both have targets to achieve in the league, and here Bayern Munich is more of a chance for me
Benfica just scored in first minute but it was offside.

about 10 minutes from now this game will start I really want to see dortmund advance to the next round even though it will require hard work in this second leg.
Dortmund have a better chance of advancing to the next round of the competition because they are in better shape than Chelsea.Statistically, Chelsea has only won one of their last five matches, whereas Dortmund has won all of their last five matches, including their first leg match against Chelsea; thus, despite playing at home, I do not expect Chelsea to win today's match.

potter has very little experience to coach a big team especially in ucl all teams will show their best strength. this is something he must realize in this second leg to be able to break the negative assumptions that are directed at him.
It is clear that Potter has less experience in his coaching experience, as he is still struggling to be consistent in their games in all competitions; Unless Chelsea were lucky enough today, they cannot win the match with the way they were playing in the league games. 
I don't expect much from them either despite them leaving the game of last Friday where they lost against the penultimate team in their local league in the standings,one of the worse teams there and Brugge got and lost 2-0 that game.Probably because they want to go all out tonight against Benfica but I don't think they have the fire power,the will and determination to stop a Benfica which plays extremely well compared to them so I see tonight game a Benfica that will most probably win and why not with a tennis result if they want to.Benfica is clearly on the next leg from this encounter.
Benfica did everything in the first leg to make the return game at home comfortable. Benfica hardly lose at home, their performance on Eshtadio da Luz is excellent, so I think Brugge has no chance today. Brugge showed very good and unexpected results in the group stage, and reaching the playoffs is a very good result, but Benfica turned out to be a very strong opponent for them.

Yes , Dortmund is in advantage a bit, but 1-0 victory over Chelsea is not a secured victory in my opinion, and if Chelsea should first just get 1 goal it will worsen the situation for Dortmund and put the whole game into starting afresh. If Dortmund had scored up to 2 goals during their first leg, this could have a kind of sealed the game for them and it would have become difficult for Chelsea to turn around looking at their poor performance. However the match is still an open game for both teams and if Chelsea should put more effort in this game they will be able to qualify having them playing at home.
Of course Dortmund will be wary of this in the second leg, of course the strategy that Dortmund will carry out will be more accurate than the first leg in order to prevent opponents from playing openly in their defensive area.about 10 minutes from now this game will start I really want to see dortmund advance to the next round even though it will require hard work in this second leg.

This is just the fans of Chelsea moving the odds on their favor, personally seeing how Chelsea is playing and how Dortmund is not a weak team at all I would make a bet on Dortmund with those odds without thinking about it, I could still lose the bet of course but the odds are good enough to take a good bet on their favor, and if Chelsea was eliminated from the Champions I wonder if this will be enough for Potter to get fired, as the Champions is the only trophy they still have some realistic chances to win.
You turned this post into a joke with your last sentence
In fact, even Chelsea have a chance of winning the tournament, but their chances are far from realistic. As far as money flows that shift the odds, there is such a phenomenon and when I think that the odds of the bookmakers on this game are based on them, then I don’t think of the fans, but that there is something fishy here and the bookmakers know about it. 
Don't worry too much buddy, Real Madrid won't let Liverpool qualify for the quarter-finals even if they win the match.

Actually Real Madrid's performance in the 1st leg wasn't that impressive, as in the first 20 minutes, Liverpool really did a good attacking strategy. But it affected their defensive line, while they were too focus to attack. After that, Alisson made a mistake and the rest was disaster for Liverpool. I think Klopp has figured out how to handle that situation, it's proven by their surprising result against the Carabao Cup winner Man Utd, that at that time had good results in their latest several games. In the other side, Real Madrid only got two draw results against Atleti and Betis in LaLiga, and beaten by Barcelona in Copa del Rey. I think it's fair enough to favor Liverpool to win the leg 2. It's surely hard for them to qualify, but their chance to win is quite good.
This might be a little ridiculous if Chelsea really had to lose to Dortmund at Stamford Bridge somehow the consequences for Potter future.
If Chelsea ended up losing then its pretty normal considering that they have only scored 4 goals out of their last 10 games combined on all league. Thats pretty devastating statistic considering that Chelsea spent alot during the january transfer. Dortmund on the other hand, won their last 10 games from all league so that show you how good they are compared to Chelsea
As for Benfica's match against Brugge, I don't expect too much from Brugge because the chances are small, although to qualify for this phase they deserve appreciation.

Soon we will witness proof for Chelsea against Dortmund because this is indeed one of the matches that I am quite waiting for, especially with the current conditions Dortmund and Chelsea still have a chance even though Dortmund's aggregate is still superior.
Playing at Stampord Bridge even though it's not too scary at the moment for some clubs but it will still benefit Chelsea should be.

Potter must be able to prove that he and his team can get through this phase because their chances are still quite wide open especially playing at home, and with yesterday's victory in the English league I hope they will continue the winning trend in the champions league as well to prove they can qualify for next round.Playing at Stampord Bridge even though it's not too scary at the moment for some clubs but it will still benefit Chelsea should be.

Actually I'm quite sure how Chelsea can respond to the match in the second leg, they will be fully optimistic in this important competition, therefore Potter as a tactician must be able to play a role against Chelsea players.
It's way beyond expectations. Today marking the final day of round 16, there will be a cut above the first leg performance. AZ Alkmaar didn't make such a wave in the first leg, they seemed to have tripled their preparation compared to that of the first leg. I think it's going to be the same story for Chelsea and Dortmund. it will be quite exciting, coupled with the fact that both teams gained much confidence from their winning in the domestic league. I still can't bet on Chelsea to win though.
Yes , Dortmund is in advantage a bit, but 1-0 victory over Chelsea is not a secured victory in my opinion, and if Chelsea should first just get 1 goal it will worsen the situation for Dortmund and put the whole game into starting afresh. If Dortmund had scored up to 2 goals during their first leg, this could have a kind of sealed the game for them and it would have become difficult for Chelsea to turn around looking at their poor performance. However the match is still an open game for both teams and if Chelsea should put more effort in this game they will be able to qualify having them playing at home.
Chelsea getting warm-up in Stamford bridge and there's more time for Graham Potter to figured out a way he could get a win over the Schwarzgelben, it's really a tough fight for the blues. The club is definitely not in their best peak at the moment, their previous win over the weekend was just a lucky one for them, the fans expect remarkable results today, probably they should be able to do s come-back win against the visitors tonight. I've already place a bet on the game in favour of Chelsea netting multiple goals to qualify for the next round.
I am pretty excited for the game between Chelsea and Dortmund today as it is such a close call. I have no idea which direction this game will take. Chelsea played better than they last results are telling us and Dortmund is missing Adeyemi who was on his way to turn into that dangerous striker Dortmund was looking for. He took on some great 1 on 1 situations and made it.
But I am even more interested in the game between Bayern and PSG tomorrow. I love to watch Mbappe play as he has got everything a perfect striker needs. First and foremost his explosive acceleration and then his ball control at full speed. This statistic is interesting though:
Salah played almost half an hour less but ran almost 10 kilometers more than Mbappe. That is not insignificant. I had a look at some other stats and you won't believe which rank Mbappe is when it comes to top speed, I guarantee you won't guess his rank!
And I had no idea except for Davies that so many players would be so much faster!
If I had to place a bet today I would go with a draw between Chelsea and Dortmund. It is going to be like hell for Dortmund with Chelsea and the people at home backing them, but they must try to defend well and wait for an opportunity to strike. That would take a lot of pressure from them.
