I assume it looks like Dortmund do not have difficult pressure to play in the second leg later because after all, the reality of the match results in the Bundesliga also Dortmund still played very well winning 5-1 against Augsburg. With results like that, then I think Dortmund really seems to be able to overcome the pressure it gets later for the second leg at the Parc des Princes. Because anyway, at least PSG also quite often fails in important situations like this and although PSG is still very favored to qualify for the final, but I personally still quite believe Dortmund is able to make a surprise this season to qualify for the Champions League final.

About Real Madrid v Bayern Munich, I only recognize that Real Madrid is the king and also, the winning mentality factor of course Real Madrid has it well too. With factors like that, then of course Real Madrid is still very much the favorite to win the Champions League trophy this season, because the teams in this semifinal are at least not completely better than Real Madrid. But even so, I also might expect a surprise for the Champions League final this season, maybe the Champions League final this season will bring together the Bundesliga team Dortmund v Bayern Munich, who knows.

Im gonna expect a PSG comeback and a Real MAdrid simple win without so much margin against Munich for this two second games of the series.

I dont think PSG is gonna fail in two games in row, and also i dont think Bayern Munich can be the solid it was in Germany and also the lucky because they find two super fast goals who overthrow the whole game.

It's hard to imagine real madrid will lose in home game against bayern munich.



The better to take a look at the home games statistic owned by real madrid. It's obvious that if club was never losing against its opponent. This confirms that if real madrid is also being favored to win the match against bayern in santiago bernabeu.
Madrid is performing even better than before.

How can this forget Dortmund with a clear 1-0 aggregate lead even though this is still said to be reversed by PSG at home but we never know about BVB who will play more calmly so that they can go to the final, yes here we will feel where PSG might enter the final.

When it comes to Real Madrid vs Bayern Munich, many people do not doubt that Real Madrid can enter the final especially in the second leg playing at home where an advantage for Los Blancos is a thin win is already comfortable especially when Bayern Munich yesterday performed poorly, but here I will not rule out BVB who could enter the final.

Both teams are no longer burdened in their respective leagues, yes Madrid have managed to win La Liga this season and can fully focus on continuing their mission in the Champions League, while Bayern Munich of course they no longer care about the Bundesliga after for now can ensure a place in the Champions League next season, with both teams focusing on the Champions League as the main target so it is certain that both teams will play quite hard and all Out in the second leg to get a win, for now both teams have the same chance to qualify for the final and even I think the home advantage certainly does not apply in a match  brings together that the two big teams .

A draw in the first leg certainly makes all possibilities possible and I think Madrid favourite status certainly cannot guarantee their can beat Munich who have a high mentality at the moment to be able to end the season with a trophy, I think so far we overly underestimated Munich too much just because of their poor performance in the league, but in fact for now we can see if Munich can go far in the Champions League after beating Arsenal initially become a favorite.

In fact, Real Madrid is not the type of team that plays the ball a lot, they always rely on quick counter attacks or they play effective football by not holding the ball much, but once they have the ball they can use it to create opportunities that even lead to goals. They take advantage of the speed and intelligence of their front players, supported by midfielders who can provide good passes. Just like in the first leg, how Kross was able to release a very good pass which could be used as a goal.

Bayern Munich's players must be able to prevent this, they must be able to play closely so that they can prevent Real Madrid's players from creating very dangerous passes. Once again it won't be easy for Bayern Munich, because Real Madrid have the upper hand now, they will want to make sure that they can win their 15th title in the Champions League this season, and as you said, it's the Bernabeu that doesn't it's easy to play here.

Although the first leg match between Real Madrid vs Bayern Munich was a draw, the performance of the first leg match at least did not satisfy us as Real Madrid and Bayern Munich performed poorly in the first leg match. Real Madrid's first-leg performance against Munich seemed to pit two of the league's weakest opponents against each other. There was no accuracy in the first leg match, the players made more common mistakes, perhaps they played with too much pressure against each other which made their game so haphazard. Being a football lover, I definitely don't want the game to be messy in the Champions League second leg match. I'm a real madrid supporter but I still want the game to be a tough competition and a team that fights to win.

Moreover, after confirming the La Liga title, Real Madrid players have high self-confidence, although it is very difficult to predict, but with what Real Madrid has, it seems that Real Madrid is able to qualify for the Champions League final this season. .
We all know that Bayer Munich is not an easy team to beat even though they are playing at their opponent's home ground. With their experience in the Champions League, I think Bayer Munich will provide maximum resistance to stop Madrid from winning their 15th title.

Yes, Paris Saint-Germain has the advantage of playing at the Parc des Princes at home. IMO, this is the momentum to overthrow Dortmund at Paris Saint-Germain's headquarters. Maybe that's why bookmakers provide quite significant odds. as you said, even though PSG lost in the first leg, Luis Enrique's team did not relax their attack in the slightest. They played aggressively, but several PSG midfielders were not calm when in possession of the ball to supply the front line players. however, they actually controlled the course of the match. plus based on tactics and technical, PSG played very impressively. well, based on the team's perspective, we have the same assumptions or speculations for the PSG versus Dortmund match in the second leg. Let's just wait, the fight will be held.

For Madrid vs Bayern, we have different assumptions and speculations. although there are many who favor Real Madrid, especially since the match was held at the Santiago Bernabeu. My guess is that Munich will not give up one bit in the second leg. I want to see more about what Thomas Tuchel will do with his tactics, system and strategy. In the Madrid camp, it seems Don Carlo will apply the same pattern. For me, this match is interesting and even has the potential to provide a surprise.

It is clear that Real Madrid has a higher chance of winning the second leg match, even though in the first leg match both of them showed equal strength. Playing in front of your own supporters is certainly an advantage, apart from that, Real Madrid also has good capital ahead of the match. Bayern Munich, as we know, suffered another defeat in the Bundesliga, which had a bad impact on the overall mentality of the players. On paper, the Real Madrid versus Bayern Munich match is difficult to predict, as both teams have a good reputation and history in the Champions League. However, when they saw that Real Madrid was able to get rid of Manchester City, it felt like Ancelotti squad could make good use of the home match to get rid of Bayern Munich and qualify for the final.

It is going to be a great match between Real Madrid and Bayern Munich. Of course, whoever is going to win this match is going to advance to the final of the Champions League. And that's why this match is going to be very competitive. Actually I have a feeling that this match might actually go into extra time and finally get decided on penalties. But if Real Madrid can actually get through this semi final, I have a feeling that the final is going to be easier for them compared to this. Regardless of who it is in the finals, PSG or Dortmund, Real Madrid is going to find it easier. And I know all of us are giving Real Madrid the best odds to win the final is because they have defeated the biggest problem which was Manchester City. I think the majority of the people are thinking that the winner of the Champions League is going to be Real Madrid.

I am wondering how it could have been Leverkusen actually played in the Champions League this season.

I'd u are talking about Bayern Munich loss over the weekend I think it's more of a strategic thing than just a mare losses but then I see tuchel playing cheese at this point because that loss may later tell on them if eventually they get to loose out in the champions league games of which their opponent isn't relenting as they want to make sure they get at least two trophies this season so it would have been better Munich made sure to still secure their domestic league position.

Real Madrid is currently with a good psychology as their confidence will probably bet at its peak in the fact that they had enjoyed a week long of victory alongside securing a trophy, all this actually comes together for a morale boost but for Munich it's a different case as all their efforts seem to be geared towards preparations but then it's still not enough to just getting prepared because no amount of preparations can ever be enough except they eventually get lucky then they can say their preparations were solid but then Madrid always have a very different and sound mentality playing from home so I don't know if Munich will be able to deal with that well enough.

Somehow like you rightly stated some of the pressure will have it's shift to Munich but then hopefully they will be able to absorb it and not let it be a determining factor to their performance because this game is a determinant of what their fate will be in the champions league this season, personally considering all the factors both teams have advantages at some point and aswell have their disadvantages aswell so I will just keep an open mind and hope the best team wins.

Just one match, the advantage for Real will be that the match will be played at the Santiago Bernabeu, and Real have not lost a single match at home this season. In this case, victory for Bayern looks very difficult to achieve, and it seems that Real Madrid currently have a better chance of reaching the final. What can Tuchel come up with that could surprise Real, and will he try to press, or will he choose a defensive strategy this time, although this is unlikely to work against Real.

Just reflecting on Madrid home match against Manchester City made it difficult for Pep Guardiola to win. So it is not impossible that Bayern Munich will also experience the same thing, where Ancelotti will definitely focus on the back line to remain solid. Moreover, this is about the battle towards the final which is more exciting in intensity, I will of course support the host's victory. Regarding the defeat to Stuttgart, since Leverkusen won the Bundesliga trophy, the motivation of the Bayern Munich players has been in disarray. It is not surprising that Stuttgart was able to silence Tuchel troops mercilessly.

I don’t find it strange at all and bookmakers have their reasons for making it that way, if you check properly you will notice alot of things that gives PSG the advantage to turn around the 1 goal lead Dortmund have over them. Firstly, PSG will be playing at home which is a huge advantage to them then again they are more experienced in the competition, have more experienced players and have more quality players compared to Dortmund and again looking at it 1 goal lead is not a big advantage at all especially with Mbappe around.

If you feel the bookmakers are mistaken then you can go ahead and bet on Dortmund if you are so sure.

I don’t agree but lets just wait and see the results. I feel PSG will win at their own home  game too but i am not sure the number of goals.

I agree that Madrid seemed passive versus Bayern. I adore high-scoring thrillers more than anyone. However, Real Madrid is smart. They've mastered the underdog technique of playing away and drawing. The long game is their specialty. The Bernabeu is a fortress. Madrid transforms at home. Bayern will struggle to break down that defense. Madrid's holdout? Its smart and safe. They capitalize on penalties and counterattacks, which has made them champions so many times.

Bayern must adjust tactics. Long shots may be their only hope. We know bulldozing Madrid's defense wont work. This Champions League run is over until they become inventive or find a new angle.

Talking about this, of course anything can happen in football, we all cannot be sure whether a team can play as we predict or not. But we will predict based on their current game and performance, so that is a different thing in my opinion.
Real Madrid are a better team than Bayern Munich this season, I think we can all agree on that. In this way, we will make Real Madrid the main favorite in this match. Even if Bayern Munich can provide a surprise or something like that and make Real Madrid lose this match, then that is also something that could happen.
But once again we definitely do analysis and make predictions based on what we see at the moment and we also know that Real Madrid has been the main favorite from the start.

I have the same thought as you, but maybe they (the bookie) have a different view so they give odds like that to Paris Saint Germain and Borussia Dortmund. However, in my opinion, Borussia Dortmund's success in beating Paris Saint Germain in the first leg could make their chances different to what we see now, so it's a little strange when you see it.

Of course, this match will be interesting, because both teams will play their best in this match. When they are in the semifinals, they will try to maximize every match. REal Madrid have confirmed themselves as champions in La Liga, so they will focus on the Champions League match, while Bayern Munich has ended the Bundesliga in failure this season, so they will focus on fighting for the Champions League title, because this is the only hope for them to get a degree. If they fail in the Champions League this season, then they will definitely be without the title.

I think it's very natural, PSG are very favorites because their chances of winning this match are very big, it's all because of what happened in the first leg, even though they played at Dortmund's home ground, PSG's performance was very impressive even though they lost by 1 goal. I don't think it's a big loss, but because PSG lost in the first leg, their chances of winning the second leg are much greater.
PSG, who will play at home, will of course play much more persistently, so that's why they are very favorites to win this second leg match.

Against Real Madrid it is always difficult for Bayern, and it is very likely that Bayern will not do much in this second leg, I also think that Real Madrid will be able to win easily.

It is true that experience will play a major role in this second games but to be fair they are not playing against inexperienced players, they are playing against Real Madrid, who has a title very recently, so they are playing against a team that is not doing all that bad on experience themselves as well.

Experience matters when you have it and the other side doesn't have it, but when you have it both then it doesn't really matter because then you are all on the same equal chances. In fact, Kane is the most important player by the looks of it for Bayern, and he doesn't have any experience of lifting a trophy before, he played at UCL at this stage before, but I do not think that it would be fair to say Bayern has a lot more experience.
