After all, I think the teams in group B, at least it can be said that the teams in group B have a quality that is not much different. Thus, I believe the competition in group B will be very competitive because yes, at least every team in group B both have the chance to get good results. But regarding the match between Arsenal against PSV, at least at this moment Arsenal are still the favored team based on the odds available at this time. But even so, I also think that PSV is not a weak team at all. So, even though Arsenal have a good chance of winning, but it still won't be easy to beat PSV.
I'm sure Arsenal will certainly be optimistic about qualifying for the group without undermining the other contestants in this group, in terms of squad depth, the team's performance in each league. Arsenal is clearly the favorite in this group, but Arsenal is well aware of the many questions, does Arsenal have a European mentality? because playing at UCL is not enough just to have a squad and play well, but you also have to have a European mentality.

If Arteta is able to form that mentality, then winning the group and qualifying is the most likely thing that Arteta and his team can do, plus the fact that it can be a burden and at the same time a motivation for Arteta and his team according to several sources such as ESPN Arsenal are strong candidates to win the UCL this season together. Manchester City, Munich, Madrid and Arsenal.

Again, as I said at the beginning, I'm sure Arsenal are optimistic that this season they can go far in UCL. Of course, it all depends on each club whether they can focus and be consistent or not, especially since the English team has to share focus with the local league, not to mention the problem of injuries.

There is no doubt that Bayern Munich at the moment with their tremendous improvements in defense and attack are already quite worthy of qualifying from this round and for United I don't think they will be any less of a challenger for Bayern Munich, even Galatasaray won't be able to be either. Munich's barrier to qualifying from this round.
Another problem for United who is currently very bad with the problems at the club that have not been resolved and also not sure whether United can be an equal obstacle for Galatasaray because if you look at the overall performance United have a big chance of falling early after Copenhagen.
For this group, I will not doubt Bayern Munich to qualify for the next round of the Champions League, but for Manchester United I also still have doubts because their performance at the start of this season is still not perfect so Manchester United needs to prove themselves with hard work inside. this group stage so that they can qualify for the next round. Manchester United just need to make sure they can always win when facing Galatasaray and Copenhagen and don't lose too much when facing Bayern Munich.

If Manchester United can certainly lose when playing against Bayern Munich, then Manchester United should be able to get a victory when playing against Galatasaray and Copenhagen. Because only then, it will make Manchester United have a chance to become runner up and qualify for the round of 16. But yes, if Manchester United cannot consistently beat Galatasaray and Copenhagen, then Manchester United maybe lose their chance to qualify. But regarding Bayern Munich, after all I personally believe Bayern Munich has a good chance to even qualify to the semifinals or maybe even to the final. who knows.

Arsenal first match in this competition and they will fight against PSV and this is very interesting because both teams have been met last year on Europa league and both teams have defeated each other which mean PSV can be considers as tough opponent for Arsenal especially PSV performance were increase rapidly because since July PSV has fantastic achievement and since that month PSV has through 11 matches with unbeatable status in all competitions and before they advances to the group stage PSV has been done a good job because they can able to eliminate Rangers with total aggregate 7-2 so although Arsenal is the favourite in this match but PSV cannot be underestimate because they have a potention to make Arsenal get in trouble

Both Arsenal and PSV had a good show in the last games in them various league games. Though the upcoming games for the both sides are tougher games. With international games, some players should return tired.
Arsenal facing Everton who knows how to defend very well. How they play this game would reflect on the game between PSV.

Last five games between the both sides shows Arsenal has collected lesser points amongst themselves. With Arsenal return to Champions League, impression should be the first thing, they have to give the fans a good show on the twentieth of this month. Disappointing the fans should be a fatal flaw.

The fact is that a club like Copenhagen can't progress to knockout stages in a group that consists of Bayern Munich Manchester and Galatasaray. That being said, I strongly believe that Galatasaray might be joining Bayern Munich to the knockout stages of this season's UEFA Champions League competition if Manchester doesn't  take their games very serious.
The Turkish club has been in fine forms since the start of the season and are expected to continue their brilliant performances in the UEFA Champions League. So apart from Bayern Munich who's squad in the group is the most intimidating, any other team can progress alongside the German champions
Without any doubt one of the easiest groups for the leaders Bayern Munich which is having strong enough attack and their defense is also improving which will not allow anyone from this group to give them tough time with Copenhagen could be going early, and we will have tough time between Manchester United and Galatasaray which team will be able to won at home with better difference could be on advantage and beating Copenhagen and having good resistance against Leaders Bayern Munich all will be counted, and I have feeling this season is not going to be easy for the English giants which are having many issues which are not easy to settle in near future but hopefully if the able then surely things could be into their way for the better results.

I think this game should end in favor of Arsenal although I know that PSV isn't easy to play against, but still the difference in quality is too much if everything goes as expected for Arsenal. It is also a home game for them, which makes it even less likely for PSV to come up with a surprise game. But there is still some time left until those games take place, but Arsenal should be off for a good start into the Champions League season.

There is no doubt that Bayern Munich will be at the top of the table. This group is very strong now. At the same time, Bayern Munich is among the most favorite teams in this year's Champions League. The team has the most chances to win the title. Manchester United is not a weak team. But their performance is very erratic. The team is not playing well consistently. I haven't seen a good performance from the team in the Premier League either.

The Copenhagen team is relatively weak. And I would say that qualifying for the Champions League is the biggest achievement of the Copenhagen team. I don't expect a very good performance from this team in the Champions League. However, its performance at Galatasaray cannot be predicted. The team is quite strong this season. They have several talented players in the squad. So I'd say the battle for second place in the points table will basically be between Manchester United and Galatasaray.

This is what everyone would expect, but the games have to take place first and we will see whether Bayern Munich can live up to the role of being one of the huge favorites. They have had a number of problems recently, but the results so far were good for them. It could have been different though as well.

But I have my doubts that they are one level with a team like Manchester City yet. Harry Kane was a key addition to the team and he makes the team stronger by a lot. He was the missing piece of the puzzle so far. But I still think that there is a bit of inconsistency in their performance level. It is not yet as stable as I thought it could be for them.

Bayern Munich have the upper hand in that group, and indeed I think we can all agree that they are the most likely club to make it to the knockout stages, if they can perform to expectations and there are no surprises in store for the other challengers in that group. Manchester United are likely to be the second club to accompany Bayern Munich, but their journey will not be as easy as imagined, especially if their consistency is still very questionable.
I'm also looking forward to seeing which clubs will go to the Europa League, as last season the big clubs went there in droves.
Maybe one of the big clubs that will go there is from group F, because that is the strongest group at the moment.

Manchester United first match in the UCL it was against Bayern Munich, I'm not too sure Manchester United can get points in that match even if it's only one, considering that Ten Hag squad  in several away matches in the EPL their performance has drop. Bayern Munich, which this season has improved in defensive line and attack line, will make it very difficult for Ten Hag to think of the perfect tactics in that match. Even, Bookie currently gives odds for Bayern @1.59 while for Manchester United @5.20, in that match Bayern Munich is the favorite to win.
This first trip to the Allianz Arena is quite difficult for Manchester United to win there.

If the difference from the odds is very far maybe because of the difference in their performance, one of which is Erik Ten Hag's team which is said to be inconsistent, this Champion League sometimes has different games, but with the appearance in the PL it will not be much different.
I haven't checked the betting markets yet as it's still a week away there could be a slight change from the bookies with the odds increasing.
Many believe that ManU will be promoted to the next round from the group at least as second, but I see a difficult game not only against Bayern Munich but also against Galatasaray Istanbul. The Turks have made very good transfers and will certainly be able to cause problems for Manchester United.
Talking about Group F for this tournament I think that's easy to say which teams are going to get into the net stage and pass the grouping stage among the four teams we see. Because the possibility for Copenhagen to beat teams like Bayern Munich and Manchester United is very low, the only chance for us to see a surprise is to see Galatasaray having a better performance than Manchester United because we know Bayern Munich is the first chance in this group with Tuchel.
In fact, they hired Thomas Tuchel to have a better performance in the Champions League and obviously, we expect them to pass this stage.

There is no doubt that Bayern Munich will be at the top of the table. This group is very strong now. At the same time, Bayern Munich is among the most favorite teams in this year's Champions League. The team has the most chances to win the title. Manchester United is not a weak team. But their performance is very erratic. The team is not playing well consistently. I haven't seen a good performance from the team in the Premier League either.

The Copenhagen team is relatively weak. And I would say that qualifying for the Champions League is the biggest achievement of the Copenhagen team. I don't expect a very good performance from this team in the Champions League. However, its performance at Galatasaray cannot be predicted. The team is quite strong this season. They have several talented players in the squad. So I'd say the battle for second place in the points table will basically be between Manchester United and Galatasaray.

I doubt Copenhagen will win against Manchester United or Bayern, but Manchester United is weaker than Bayern. In fact, manchester united has so many troubles in the club that may also affect its performance.
Bayern will be dominating this group and tuchel can use kane as the main centre of club in scoring the goals against another club.

This group is quite easy to bet. Bayern will be hosting the game against MU while copenhage will play at galatasaray's home. My bet goes to the bayern and saray as strongest candidates to win the game.
I do know how strong bayern when it was playing at home against EPL club. I just pray ten hag will put meguire and evans in.
It will help bayern to beat MU.

To be honest this should be a very comfortable group for Atletico Madrid. They have a really lucky draw for the groups. Even Lazio aren't much close to Atletico Madrid's level at the moment. Because Lazio didn't start the season well. Feyenoord and Celtic both are much weaker teams than Atletico Madrid already.

The placements in the group can be like this:

1. Atletico Madrid
2. Lazio
3. Feyenoord
4. Celtic

I believe Celtic are the weakest team here. Feyenoord can bring some competition to Lazio maybe but I still expect Lazio to stay ahead of them.
Recently we have few good changes in many leagues with few teams are doing impressive job and having enough quality and space for giving upsets in this event which is famous for the surprising results and upsets there is no doubt about Atlético Madrid which is clearly leader for this group with Lazio and Feyenoord both are having fair chance for the staying at the second spot even this is not easy for them but with current performance and quality we can expect good competition.

Celtic is surely the weakest side in this group and Lazio is also having troubling start of this season but in this event we can expect good result with Feyenoord which is coming here after winning Dutch league in presence of PSV and Ajax surely try to give his best and make a mark with going into knock out round even it has never been easy job.

Because in this case he has his own way of doing the match and their goal is victory regardless of how the tactics they show, they don't really care about that.

For us football lovers it's not interesting but for Simeone and Atletico who are the players as long as they get good results then they will definitely do the same.
Actually looking at the group conditions, they should be favorites and more able to play more freely in the group phase but it depends on Simeone whether they will try a high dominance style or a bus parking scheme with full defense after scoring a goal and making the match less interesting to watch.

for me they are the favorites to win the group, whether they play defense or counter-attack it makes little difference, Lazio, Feyenoord and Celtic don't see them strong enough to compete for first place! it will certainly be a very balanced group, especially to compete for the second place available for the round of 16. but we would have better certainties at the end of the first round
As I said, they are definitely the favorites but it would be great if they tried to implement a better scheme instead of just continuing to park the bus because looking at the current conditions they benefit because the group is filled with balanced strength and not too strong.

As for Celtic and Feyenoord this will not be easy for them, in terms of popularity, Feyenoord and Celtic are below Lazio and Atletico but indeed they still have the opportunity to compete for runner up and even if they fail the 3rd position they can still grab.
I think that when they have the opportunity to play in an away game, Feyenoord and Celtic must try to steal points first or they can hold a draw first. That is the right strategy rather than parking the bus in the opponent's cage. After that, Feyenoord and Celtic were able to go all out when the match was held at their respective home grounds. I think this way it will make it difficult for top teams like Lazio and Atletico to get full points. So at least it can increase the probability that one of the teams from Feyenoord and Celtic can become runners up. But still it won't be so easy.

I can agree with you on Barcelona's getting lucky about the draw. Antwerp, Porto and Shakhtar all are not big competitions for Barcelona. Maybe Porto can make big difficulties in Portugal but I don't expect the same in Spain. Barcelona should be able to finish this group as the first and make up for their poor performances in the recent years.
Barcelona was lucky enough compared with last season once it must be playing in the same group against bayern and intermilan. Barcelona will face weak clubs as a competitor for this season.
Its likely barcelona will be winning the group easily without any doubt. Shakhtar was not good enough. Porto is the only club that considerably strong enough to face barcelona

Xavi has been highly criticized because of the team performance in the Champions League in the recent times. They were performing really poorly in especially big games and this caused them to say goodbye to the Champions League early. Barcelona don't deserve a result like this considering their quality.
Xavi was always able making its club compete in la liga but it's played like average team when it came to the champion league.
I would not be surprised if xavi has been getting so many complaints regarding the performance from the club under him. There is also a lot of complaints came toward xavi even lewandowski has been also the one who was complaining his strategy.

I believe in Barcelona to make it to the quarter finals at least unless they face a huge challenge in last 16.
I hope so but let's see how strong this club is during the group stage.

In fact, they hired Thomas Tuchel to have a better performance in the Champions League and obviously, we expect them to pass this stage.
 
lets talk about group A.

* Bayern Munich
* Man United
* Copenhagen
* Galatasaray


from this list we can confirm that advantage will come from Bayern Munich who have a much stronger performance after the arrival of mainstay player Kane which will be collaboration between Tuchel strategy and this mainstay player and I see  change the playing style of all Bayern Munich players to be more increased after successfully recruiting Kane, such as providing chemistry to other players, becoming more confident and enthusiastic to have the hope of working with the goal scoring machine to win the UCL title together.
and on the one hand, Man United is currently uncertain whether there will be big changes after the UCL match has started because seeing the current bad situation in the main league makes us all a little doubtful that MU will perform perfectly in this competition and I see there is also a conflict between players and coaches Ten Hag who caused the badness to get worse.

for Copenhagen I not say this team is bad because Copenhagen is performing very well in the domestic league and could be heading to this point being here but it would be a shame if Copenhagen would be broken by a team like Bayern Munich or Man United and for Galatasaray there is still little confidence if the team This can compete a little stronger to compete with Man United but will not be able to beat Bayern Munich.

from this all just my speculation at the moment and whether this will come true if Bayern Munich will lead the group let see.

Yes, we made some very good signings this season, and we were already a good team. But we came into the Champions League group stage from pot 4. I think there are very few teams that come into the group stage from pot 4 and make it to the next round.

I wanted a team that could win all 6 games from the first pot and Bayern Munich are exactly what I wanted. But Manchester United are not an easy team. If there was an easier team from the second pot instead of Manchester United, I would say that we have a good chance to go through to the next round, but this picture is not very encouraging for me.
