Napoli are in a very good state now, even in their last game Ajax had to admit the advantage held by Napoli with a very landslide score. Napoli only needs one more win to be able to step into the knockout phase. Because with the addition of 3 points it is impossible for Ajax to catch up (if Napoli win in the second leg against Ajax). However if ajax wins the match then it will be hope for them. But I doubt that Ajax can win.

Napoli can already be said that they are actually in the playoffs, and this will most likely happen in the next match with Ajax. You see, they beat them away, and scored 6 goals against them, so the home game shouldn't be difficult for Napoli either. It may be that there will be some underestimation of the opponent and Ajax will play better, but I doubt that Napoli will allow Ajax to play even in a draw, Napoli need this victory to further focus on other tasks and most likely that they will be able to do it.

Napoli - Ajax could be the last chance for Ajax to maintain their claim for the next round in the Champions League. Because Liverpool would defeat Rangers easily again. Maybe it is too difficult but Ajax have no other choice than winning against Napoli in Italy.

However this seems a really far possibility now. Because we all watched what Napoli did to Ajax in Amsterdam (6-1). There is even no way Ajax are getting close to even stealing one point here. Napoli demolished Liverpool by 4-1 home before. They can get a similar result against Ajax as well. Their offense and defense both are way stronger than their opponent. Ajax have been struggling with serious problems for two matches in this tournament and I don't expect them to solve them completely until this match.
One of the 3 Napoli clubs, Ajax and Liverpool now have to fight and with Liverpool's opponent is Rangers clearly this is an advantage for them in contrast to Ajax who will surely face a tough match with Napoli which destroyed them in the previous meeting.
I personally want to believe in Ajax but by looking at the first game it's clear it's very difficult for them.

A huge pressure for barcelona. If barcelona can't win against inter and barcelona will be going home. The pressure was coming since barcelona was losing against inter in the first leg. If the second leg will be draw or lose and then it gives more advantage to the inter. that's a very big match for barcelona. It seems like that xavi will go all in that match. barcelona must use everything they know to win the match. barcelona in a very difficult situation.
It's not that they seem to be going all out, but indeed Xavi Hernandez must go all out in this match against Inter Milan. They will definitely feel great pressure, if they don't have a strong mentality then the pressure will make them sink. There are factors outside the game that will affect this match, namely mental. They are definitely chasing a win and usually things like that will leave gaps in the defense as they focus more on attacking to create goals to their advantage. Xavi must be careful, because in addition to winning also their defense must be considered otherwise it will backfire for them.

my prediction for Barcelona to not qualify for the next round is still alive, but i have to admit that it's tough right now for Inter to get 2nd place, if they were able to get a draw out of Bayern Munich in Milan there chances could have been way better now, but there is hope still, if they lose against Barcelona it's over, but a draw could make things really interesting.
Barcelona need to win at least two more times in the three remaining matches in the Champions League group stage, as Barcelona are three points behind Inter Milan and 6 points behind Bayern Munich who are currently in first place in Group C. So Barcelona's toughest opponent is Bayern Munich, apart from Inter Milan and for Viktoria I think it will be very easy for Barcelona to handle because Viktoria is not a strong team in Group C this season.
Now Barcelona having two home games first against Inter and then Bayern Munich which is not easy but if they are able to have one win from these two games then surely they can go with good result into second round because they have one game which is against Plzen and this can give them good win as well so right now most important thing is they have to win first match against Inter because this will give them a good confidence for staying into hunt for qualifying into next round.

With most chances Bayern Munich is going to be stayed as group leaders now fight is going between Inter and Barcelona which is surely favourable for Barcelona because they have better squad and quality for doing good performance and having good chance for qualifying into next round.

Barcelona should not lose again to Inter as experienced in the first meeting, although the defeat suffered by Barcelona was a bit controversial but the result of the match could not be changed with the score 1-0.
Barcelona will use Camp Nou to take revenge on Inter, they will do whatever it takes to get full points in order to open the chance to qualify for the round of 16. Inter who just got a positive result over Sassuolo will try to play impressively to make it difficult for Barcelona to penetrate their defense, a draw is Inter target at Camp Nou.

I wonder why, after losing two games in the Champions League, Barcelona are considered by bookmakers to be such a strong favorite in the return game with Inter? I thought about betting on Barcelona for the reasons you said, but when I saw the odds of 1.42, all desire was gone. It's just unbelievable - Inter is not an "average team from La Liga" at all to give such a frivolous odds to win against it. I don’t know if Inter can surprise again, but such odds do not deserve any attention and risk.

Barcelona's next game is against Inter Milan. Earlier, Barcelona lost 1-0 in their field. If Barcelona do not win the next match, their Champions League journey may be over. So I think since the next game will be at Barcelona's home ground, they will be able to win for sure. Good luck to Barcelona.
Barcelona must win this match to advance to the next round. But I don't think I'll be able to put them on my bet slip. They don't give me enough confidence that they can beat Inter Milan. We see that they have had difficulties in producing scores in the last weeks. Also we witness that Lewandowski is sometimes alone. A penalty could have been awarded in favor of Barcelona in the first match. We could have had different expectations before this match today. But instead of non-football issues, Xavi needs to strengthen their offensive options. Barcelona should start scoring more goals again like in the old days. Otherwise, they cannot come to an assertive position in La Liga and Champions League.

Barcelona have lost two of their first three matches and have fallen far behind. Barcelona now need to win every match if they want to qualify for the next round. Importantly, Barcelona will play against Bayern and Inter Milan at Camp Nou. And Barcelona is very strong in home matches. And so I think Barcelona will be able to win against Inter Milan in the next match. However, in this match Inter Milan will play completely defensively and try to draw. We may not see many goals in the match, but the match will be competitive.

At the Nou Camp, Barcelona will show Inter what real football is, without any husks. Matches in which the referee attracts all the attention are no longer interesting. Some kind of bias, or blindness, I don’t know what it was, but when a “controversial” moment is obvious to everyone, then what else can it be called, except for lousy refereeing. But this cannot be repeated in every match and therefore I think that Inter will get 3 - 4 goals from the evil Barcelona.

Do not draw or lose in this second leg Barcelona of course have big demands to win at Camp Nou but they have to be wary of Inter Milan which allows playing defensively but in terms of counterattack it will be dangerous not to let this miss make Barcelona overwhelmed again , therefore I think Xavi Hernanders will work hard in providing strategic direction to his squad but in this case I think Barcelona can get points with his impressive game.
This will be the match the fans have been waiting for, including Inter Milan who will fight back at Barcelona against away.
The first leg Barcelona had the possession while Inter got the win. I believe Barcelona has learnt from the first leg and will do all the can to ensure the win the match to seal back their second position with GD since the two club will then share the same point. Barcelona might not want to take the chances of losing out of the champions league.

Barcelona's two away games in the UCL failed miserably. They can't grab points. They still have 3 games left. If they want to keep their chances of qualifying open they need to be able to win in all the remaining games. Although Barca also have to wait for the final result of the Inter game. Today they won against Celta Vigo, Barcelona won 1-0. But I see Barcelona have a hard time making goals. Maybe Xavi will have to work hard because after this week's UCL they will against Real Madrid in the League.

This time they will be playing in Italy and is much different from Chelsea,we have seen in the Premier League that Chelsea has not been doing that well when playing away and the new coach sure has started with the right foot by winning against Crystal Palace away but in Champions we have yet to see a win outside home for Chelsea.I believe Milan will play much but much better in Italy in front of their home fans which are expecting a victory from Milan in order to turn things around and to be able to get a spot past the group stage.
One thing that makes me feel confident for Chelsea who are unlikely to lose in the away match against Milan is about their new coach, Graham Potter seems to have a good ability because so far Chelsea have not lost after changing coaches. With a result like that it is very likely Chelsea will maintain this kind of performance at least not to lose points, a draw could be their target at the San Siro. I also don't think Milan are weak because so far Milan have had good results when playing at home, but when the Chelsea defense is at its best then the result is clean sheets for Chelsea because Chelsea have a good and strong defense.
No doubt Graham Potter doing good job, and now they are at winning road which is important for them but here we have to praise Thomas Tuchel as well because he has also done good work and have quality players which are now helping new coach for having better results even we can expect some changes in coming transfer window because every coach want to play with his favourite players and same can happen in this case after very good performance against AC Milan at home most chances they will be good in away match as well which will give them positive result.

Chelsea have two back to back clean sheets one against Wolves and second against AC Milan both were at home, but now their defence is surely doing good job which is surely going to help them for having more positive results in coming matches in both leagues which will give them better position for staying in hunt for better spot.

But in this case, with a win from Salzburg, it is clear that the competition in Group E is becoming more and more interesting. Their points are only 1 to two for the 4 in this group and obviously this is something that is difficult to predict who will be able to advance to the next round.
Currently Chelsea are on the rise and not only in the EPL in the Champions League they are doing this and of course Milan also has a big chance to qualify for the knockouts.

It really does, I am for Dinamo Zagreb but because of that 1 mistake they take because of Sadegh Moharrami, I think it is luck for Salzburg that it really happens, but we can not take away that goal from Noah Okafor and fans really love that, so I am not really frustrated about it, and right now Group E is really looking good,


That's to show you that Chelsea weren't lacking players but the players were tired of playing for Thomas Tuchel and yet many fans were criticizing the owner for sacking him. If you watched Chelsea gameplay prior to the sack of Thomas Tuchel, you would had noticed how poorly the guys were playing. Nobody was interested in shooting at the goal post. All they do is pass the ball around until the opponent gets a break and score then you begin to see the players try to get and equalizer to draw the game at most. Thomas also had one attributes that disgust me which was playing players out of position.

This was one of the reasons players were becoming tired of his style of play. Sadly we have let go of some good players that won us the champions league due to Thomas Tuchel not having good game management. Potter is changing all that and the world shoudn't be surprised when we lift a silverware this season as that has always been the culture of the club, winning trophies.

We can not really know what is the problem involving Thomas Tuchel at all and we can not always blame the management for the poor performance of the players, if they really don't like playing for Tuchel they will surely go to another team, but again it is really the decision if they don't want to get involved with Chelsea anymore, at 1st I thought that Erling Halland will go to Chelsea but I guess there is this rumor about Tuchel that Pep Guardiola said to Halland that cause Thomas Tuchel's dream hijack from him,

Barcelona have the upper hand on Inter in Camp Nou very clearly. I expect them to show a very dominant performance and Inter are also expecting this. Therefore Inter's target would be to take advantage of some chances they could get in the game and to defend Barcelona as hard as possible. They will hope for Barcelona players to have a bad day. Barcelona couldn't even score for two weeks so I expect them to be very willing to win this. It is a critical game for their future in the Champions League as well.

Am scared for Barcelona in this game, I think one vital issue that is affecting Barcelona is that they are finding it hard to win or play against teams that love seating back, I watch the first leg in Italy at the San Siro and also yesterday against Cadiz and I think xavi have big work on his hand and he should tackle it because inter Milan loves playing like that and that's a big problem for them in crossing to the next round,an another thing I observed Lawadowski is lacking supply of pas

Things are in a really interesting condition in Group E now.

Salzburg are only one point ahead of Chelsea - Milan duo and Dinamo Zagreb follow this duo from one point behind. By the next matches I expect this close competition to exist as well. Because we are going to watch the same teams facing each other once again. This time Milan might be able to turn this into an advantage home. Bookmakers still show Chelsea as the favourite side but the odd is not that convincing to bet on them honestly. This time I don't think Milan will finish the match without scoring any. As Chelsea also have improved their productivity I'm going for both teams to score.
Difference points between the teams in this group is not too far so they have equal opportunity went to next round and although Salzburg currently in the first position but their position is not secured because upcoming match will be more hard for them and on the other hand the match Milan vs Chelsea seems will be hard to predicted this because both of teams has been displayed impressive performance at their domestic league lately but Milan has slightly the favourite considering playing at their home ground but i was thinking this match results probably will ended draw

Barcelona need to win at least two more times in the three remaining matches in the Champions League group stage, as Barcelona are three points behind Inter Milan and 6 points behind Bayern Munich who are currently in first place in Group C. So Barcelona's toughest opponent is Bayern Munich, apart from Inter Milan and for Viktoria I think it will be very easy for Barcelona to handle because Viktoria is not a strong team in Group C this season.
Their fate is in their own hands, namely with the victory in the remaining matches. If they want to be safe then they have to wipe out the rest of the match with a win, that way they will be more comfortable. And the decisive one is the match against Inter Milan, because it will really determine their future steps. Inter also come with the same mission which is to win, otherwise they too will experience the same difficulties.
