There will be so many things to happen just like liverpool will have codygakpo as a new player that will enter into the team very soon. It's still too long to know that if liverpool will not able to defeat madrid. Madrid can the advantage from the inconsistent performance that has been showing by liverpool. The only problem is whether liverpool will be going into the better form once cody gakpo will be joining in the squad.
This question is a hard question to be answered. I saw that benzema has been actively playing again with real madrid and it seems like that benzema has fully recovered from his injury.
that's gonna become the worst dream for liverpool as the best striker for last year has been coming back again to the field. Benzema gonna be a very dangerous player that may make liverpool out from UCL
Madrid with the current squad is strong enough. they don't need to make too big modifications to the squad. while Liverpool needs new energy in the team to make them stronger.
we have yet to see how Liverpool performs with their new signings. if they manage to change the game for the better. it's a threat to Madrid. but if the arrival of Gakpo requires adaptation, this is still a nightmare for Liverpool when they have to face Madrid to repeat the previous final match.

It is meaningless to think that they can eliminate Real Madrid with a single transfer.  Gakpo is an important signing but if Liverpool beat Madrid it would be a success for the whole team.  The first game is a little while away and we'll see in February.  At Anfield, they need to get the upper hand against Madrid and go to Spain like that.  If they can't gain an advantage in the first match, it will be very difficult for them to pass the round in Spain.

Two teams are equally great. It's hard to guess the victory. But I think the first game in Paris will be in their favor and maybe PSG will win by a one-goal difference. Star Players will not be a guarantee of victory. Bayern are favourites, PSG have stars. But I sometimes have doubts about the fighting spirit of the PSG players. They sometimes don't have that. Even today they lost to Lens 3-1. That's proof star players are not a guarantee of victory. It was their first defeat in the League.
Have you watch the matches? only Mbappe is playing on that's match, while Neymar and Messi doesn't play, which mean PSG doesn't play with their main line up/star players. I don't see why people are underestimating Lens and Marselle, both of this clubs can compete against PSG, so it's not surprising for those club could beat PSG.

PSG will humiliating Bayern Munich in the first leg since the match will held at PSG's home, while the second match PSG would be not really strong since they will play at Bayern Munich's home.

It is really not easy to be confident about anything as for the Liverpool - Real Madrid matchup.

Liverpool are favoured according to the odds for now. But there is no clear favourite in this. Both teams have the strength to eliminate each other. I mean that I know Liverpool's condition in the English Premier League. But they aren't the same in the Champions League. Despite the bad start against Napoli they performed great later on. Real Madrid are already well-known by their great successes here. They are in good shape as well. I expect a competitive matchup here.
With the current form of Liverpool in English premier league I think Liverpool is not strong enough to defeat Real Madrid.  Liverpool has been having problems in their performance.  I don't think their performance in the game they will be playing against Real Madrid will like how it used to be in previous season.

@X-ray the current Liverpool team is short on confidence and Klopp has so far failed to inspire them, and if he doesn’t fix majority of the issues then they’ll not be able to be beat Madrid even with the addition of Gapko (my analysis changed after seeing Liverpool’s yesterday’s game).

Furthermore Real Madrid should dip in the transfer window and buy a player as a backup for Benzema, but if Benzema is fit then he’ll definitely cause Liverpool lots of trouble and probably score the winning goal too.

Bayern Munich will also do everything they can when playing in the Champions League, because Bayern Munich is not a team that just stays silent when they have to compete in the Champions League. Especially if Bayern Munich has to face PSG which is very famous for its many star players in the team, but that doesn't mean PSG can win easily in the Champions League because every team that is already in the Champions League will definitely do everything they can to win the match.

PSG have spent so much money to build the team up to the level it is at the moment with the aim of challenging for not just the League trophy but European trophies too, unfortunately they have not been able to achieve the main purpose of the big spendings, they still have not been able to win the champions league so this is a major issue the club will expecting the manager to solve at the club. They have the players but yet have not been able to achieve this for the club.
The target of PSG is to win the Champions League but it has not been easy for them. The champions is the hardest League one can ever think of to win. PSG have made me understand is not about best players in a team to win the Champions league,  sometimes winning the Champions league comes by luck. Real Madrid were able to achieve it without having much big stars players.
Real Madrid won by luck and without big stars there? You're kidding on this one. I think seeing them beat PSG, Manchester City, Chelsea and Liverpool last season people's views on Madrid will be different but still some say it's luck hmm.
Even though there is no luck several times at once we should be aware of this.
people saying it's was just luck that won them the Champions League are just delusional, if their favorite team did what Real Madrid did last season they will put luck as the last thing that got them the trophy, Real Madrid earned that trophy, and nothing can take that away from them, we can say that it was just luck about any club who won a trophy, luck plays a role sometimes but throughout the whole tournament they put in hard work and earned every achievement.

That's it. You can compare between bayern and PSG about how much the club was worthy with money and there will be a huge gap between PSG and barcelona yet become the king of EU is about how good your team work to beat another club. it's not about how many great players in your club. If those clubs can't have a good work and then it will have the same result as PSG.
PSG itself may be blamed by its fans if it will not able to take the champion league for this year.

I won't say it's easy for Real Madrid to get rid of Liverpool even though in terms of ability, Real Madrid has more things than Liverpool because Real Madrid's experience in the Champions League has been extraordinary. And one more thing that has made it difficult for Liverpool to face Real Madrid in the Champions League is Liverpool's own appearance which is currently still lacking in consistency, which has made Real Madrid slightly benefit apart from Real Madrid's basic abilities which are still very good.
Yes, if you look at Liverpool's current condition, it is indeed a bit unprofitable, especially since they have not been consistent with their performance several times. However, maybe this can grow stronger because their motivation to beat Real Madrid has been there for a long time, especially last season where they also lost to Real Madrid to get the UCL trophy. Actually, on the Real Madrid side, they might as well have gone as far as before, especially with Benzema's current condition, but fortunately, they also still have a fairly strong squad and Ancelotti's tactics are often very effective and appropriate for this team. So, it's not going to be easy for Liverpool to take revenge given their current situation. But, once more, sometimes, a football match will result unexpected and surprising results.

I'm not sure Liverpool will be able to take revenge well in Real Madrid's match later, as you said Real Madrid are used to in the UCL so they know how to deal with opponents even though there are not many squad teams who might be better than Liverpool, I'm sure Ream Madrid will easily get rid of liverpool

Tottenham have started a quite poor form recently. There is a significant decrease in their performance in their Premier League games and it has caused them to get negative results recently. I have started wondering how this form would reflect on their Champions League matchup against Milan. I know that there is still a long time until that but they don't look like good at all. Kane has still performed solidly and scored so many goals until now. But even his effort isn't enough as long as they don't stay strong as a team.

To say they battled so hard to knock Arsenal out of the top four in the English Premier League and qualify for the Champions League last season is an understatement, considering the last time they did it was around three years ago. Tottenham finished first in their group, however, it appears that the teams weren't as tough and demanding as other groups, and they didn't have as many points as even the most serious groupings tiers. Milan would most likely use them as a starter pack to go through the knockout stage.

Quote
We don't know about Milan's condition yet as they haven't played a Serie A game after the break ended. But if they have a better form until the first leg then I might start giving more chance to Milan about eliminating them. I'm still saying "might" because Milan didn't seem well against a big team in the group stage - Chelsea.

Seria A is enjoying the holidays more than even the most watched leagues, but judging by what Milan has been playing, there is no doubt that they would not win against Tottenham; it wasn't like Milan did their best, but Tottenham isn't any different, and as it appears with Milan's recent developments, they have a better chance of making it out of the knockout stage.

In terms of players, there is no shortage because spending a lot of money to get star players, including Messi and Mbappe, was able to be kept at PSG with a big offer because for PSG money is not a problem, the important thing is that the trophy needs to be won as quickly as possible, although this is not an easy task.

And it's back to the coach manager who can do this to bring the trophy home, even if the coach is great but when competing in the champions league this is a tough task for all coaches, especially PSG who will demand it all, now it's to the coach manager now are they able to step up to the finals or not.

I have no doubt that the other big title contenders must be wishing Liverpool to eliminate Real Madrid in this stage.  Grin

Because maybe Real Madrid don't have the strongest squad on paper but they have been reigning in the Champions League for long years. They know how to deal with any kind of opponent here very well. The previous season was a good example for that. They were almost being eliminated by Manchester City though but they even made a comeback in such situation. This is an opportunity for Liverpool to have some revenge on them as well actually. Because Real Madrid have a strong history against them. Liverpool are much stronger here now comparing to their EPL effort. But let's see. 
Liverpool can win this trophy to break record in this season because, they started improving in some competition which they will surely display them in this UEFA champions league competition. It will be difficult for Liverpool to miss this opportunity because, many people are expecting them to win all their games to stand in a position to win this trophy to make their coach happy.
In my opinion, I think the other teams competing in the champions league will be scared of facing Real Madrid in any level of the competition because of their outstanding records in the competition especially their streak of beating top teams against all odds last season to lift the trophy. I also believe if Liverpool can eliminate Real Madrid other teams will be glad to see it happen. I can't wait to see how that game turns out.

The competition between these two players is endless, although now that Ronaldo has joined Al-Nassr and certainly cannot participate in the UCL, it seems that this will determine who is the top scorer in UCL history. We know that Messi will likely still be in PSG uniform for one more season, it is very likely that Messi can break Ronaldo's number of goals if his performance does not decline.
It's not too difficult for Messi to find an additional 12 goals in the Champions League to equal Ronaldo goal tally. The latest news that I read, Messi will soon extend his tenure with PSG. This news certainly makes Messi appear again in the Champions League next season to cut minus the number of goals that Ronaldo has obtained.

Ronaldo is certainly not happy if Messi is the one who broke his record as the top scorer in the Champions League, not to mention that Messi has just won the world cup trophy with Argentina. These two players are friendly off the pitch, but when on the pitch they will always try to be the best.
True, it is undeniable that Messi is one step away from surpassing Ronaldo's number of goals in the champions league, moreover, Messi is definitely very motivated after bringing Argentina to win the 2022 world cup. The difference between 12 goals is very small and if you see Messi's performance which is slightly above Ronaldo, of course Messi will soon equaled the record.

Leipzig can cause difficulty for Manchester City if they have their best players. Unfortunately Leipzig have many important players who were injured and have yet recovered. Manchester City are strong but now even have more advantage.
Leipzig must maintain their best performance against Manchester City, their performances in all competitions were very good, including when they beat AC Horsens and Radomiak Radom in the Friendlies match. The last time Leipzig failed to win was when they were held to a draw in Augsburg on October 22 in the Bundesliga, after that Leipzig always won and managed to sit in 3rd place in the Bundesliga. Even though this match will be played in February, Manchester City needs to prepare to beat Leipzig. Guardiola is still counting on Haaland and hopes he can play when they fly to the Red Bull Arena.
Leipzig could end up trying their best as much as possible but lets be honest, City is a huge team that is going towards becoming the UCL winners this year, and that is why I believe that they have a bigger chance. They are such a big team that they are capable of beating anyone, like it is not just about Leipzig but when I look at the entire tournament I do not see a team that is playing as well as they do.

This is why the only way City could lose would be a shocker, and that could be against anyone but I am not expecting such a thing. Haaland will probably score a bunch of goals and get them the win, it is their way for a while now since start of the season.

Liverpool have not been able to maintain their performance, their appearance is still far from what was expected. Competition in the Champions League is more difficult than the local league, there are still many big teams left which makes Liverpool's chances of winning all matches even smaller. Liverpool are still struggling to find goals to catch up with Brentford in the Premier League, due to poor performance Liverpool had to concede two goals.
Up and down Liverpool's performance is very vulnerable to going further in the Champions League, the arrival of new players is expected to provide competition to the top teams.
