I don't know what happen with Real Madrid, Manchester City and Bayern Munich quarter final drawing always has chance will face on quarter final until semifinal round. I think easily with the other batch drawing without get difficult opponent team after qualifying to semifinal round. Last season the same drawing with Manchester City had to face Bayern Munich in quarter final before facing Madrid in the semifinal round, bit difference with this season drawing match Manchester City vs Real Madrid on the quarter final and potential the winner will face Bayern Munich seems will qualify to semifinal.
However as Real Madrid's fans keep optimistic with this season Real Madrid can revenge their loss against Manchester City in the semifinal round last season.

For me, it is too early for Real Madrid and Manchester City to meet. I was expecting Real Madrid and Manchester City to meet in the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League, and it would have been more interesting to watch because both teams will want to qualify for the UEFA Champions League finals. In the past two years, Real Madrid and Manchester City have played each other in the UEFA Champions League. In the first meeting, Real Madrid knocked out Manchester City to win the UCL title that season, while in the second meeting, Manchester City also knocked out Real Madrid to win the UCL title last season.

Luck is the final reason for any club to be able to win the Champions League title and the main reason, as you said, is the quality of the players' performance which is very influential in being able to continue to survive until the final round.
Support from experience is also one of the reasons a club can win a title because experience can provide strategic assistance that can be rearranged when playing against a particular club to achieve a winning score.
Of course, Arsenal may be consistent, but in terms of the quality of performance of Arsenal's players, they are not very strong if they have to play against equal clubs and I may have little hope for Arsenal and still believe that Manchester City will be successful this season in winning the Champions League trophy.

You Never had to think Atletico Madrid of Simeone is dead, never ever. They seem to recover the heart right now, and after we have the road map to the final they have a very good chance to reach the final of this Champions League, they can win easily against Dortmund and after that this Paris or Barcelona teams are not so good, so they also can win in Head to head clash.

IMO, I don't think it will be such a nightmare for Arsenal in this match. unlike in the 2017 meeting, Munich won on aggregate with 10-2. this season, Arsenal has a young and talented squad. their game is also quite interesting, even though they don't have an ideal pure striker. at the next meeting, the first leg will be held at Emirates Stadium. the opposite could also happen, Munich is currently sometimes playing ups and downs under the guidance of Thomas Tuchel. in fact, the one who has to be careful is Bayern Munich in the next match, because Arsenal has a chance to overthrow Bayern in the quarter-finals. let's refer to the betting exchange, even though it is still temporary. however, based on the betting market, Arsenal is superior to Bayern. yeah, this is just a temporary option. because, when the time comes for the fight, the odds can change according to the conditions of these two teams.

On the other hand, Bayern Munich's condition was not like it was at that time. even though Bayern Munich currently has Kane, there is no guarantee that the Bavarians will easily overthrow the Gunners. Moreover, sometimes Bayern's midfield and defense often underperform. Therefore, I assume that this match will be an exciting fight. Uniquely, the two coaches have different systems.

For the Madrid vs City match, these two teams are not my favorites. but for me, City really has a chance to overthrow Real Madrid even though the first leg will be held at the San Siro.

Yea , Real is indeed the final boss of UCL but I can't see them winning this year and most likely City will eliminate them in order to continue the hunt for back 2 back UCL trophies that will put them really high in UCL history.

Then, I also tend to believe that PSG will eliminate Barca too and if this happens , PSG might produce a big surprise this year and reach finals and if that happens , personally , I can't see PSG losing 2 UCL finals while they having Mbappe in team. Happened once against Bayern during covid era when there were not fans in stadiums so I doubt it can happen again if PSG will reach finals.   

Even though Real Madrid is a team that is quite experienced in the Champions League and is also the team that has won the most trophies in the Champions League, on the one hand we must not forget the strength that Manchester City has because last season the team was also successful in winning trophies in the Champions League so The meeting between these two teams in the Champions League this season will also be quite an interesting match to watch because both of them will show off their abilities to win.

I was not expecting at all to see Inter Milan losing this match against Atletico Madrid however, in fact, they had a draw and Inter Milan lost the game in the penalty kicks, but since Inter Milan could get themselves to the final match of the last Chmnapnios league, I was expecting to see them having good performer against like the last season but they failed and Inter Milan lost the game against Atletico Madrid by a close game they had against Atletico Madrid while I was expecting to see much more from this team.
However, one good reason for Atletico Madrid to win this match was their goalkeeper Jan Oblak because his good performance made his team win penalty kicks.

I think getting a trophy is not just a matter of luck because of course, to achieve the highest achievements requires good consistency too. But indeed, Arsenal this season is quite impressive and as such, Arsenal will have a chance to progress further even though it will not be easy at all. Apart from that, to achieve the highest achievements of course they will need a good mentality and if Arsenal doesn't have a good and consistent mentality then at least it will make it difficult for Arsenal to advance to the final match. But for me personally, because Arsenal has managed to qualify for the quarter finals, of course that is still a good result and it won't be a problem if in the end, for example, Arsenal loses in this phase.

Yeah the quarterfinal qualifiers are here we're going to have the hardest matches and they're going to have the best opponents.

Who's your favorite guys in the betting? I think it will be hard to choose but I believe the other odds will be favorable compared to 1X2.
We know these teams are at the top I'm most looking forward to the Manchester City vs Real Madrid match because they meet early, then Arsenal vs Bayern Munich which they haven't met for a long time not in the champions league? Arteta will have a tough task here.

But the favorite is Real Madrid even though Manchester City are great they have a chance to qualify, even now can't say much because this will be fierce and crucial of course.

Atlético Madrid's victory over Inter Milan cannot be considered lucky because Atlético Madrid played well and they also have a quite strong mentality.
And going up against Borussia Dortmund is also not an advantage for Atletico because Borussia Dortmund also has the same strength and mentality as Atletico Madrid so the match between these two teams will be quite even.

There is nothing easy about reaching the semifinals, the teams in the quarterfinals are the best teams so I think all teams still have the same chance and all the matches will be fierce.

The odds for the quarter final of UCL has been published. ATM, City, PSG and arsenal will have advantages over their opponents caused by they will be playing away. So, this gonna be golden momentum for all of them to get good aggregates before second leg will begin soon.
Im sure that if all of them will able to win the first leg of quarter final. The odds offered to pick 1x2 are very good compared to the picking total over or btts.

Anyway, playing at home first will give those clubs advantages to give pressure. If the clubs who got a chance to play at home will be winning the game and this is gonna be a very good result that will help them all to boost their chance to win the game.
I strongly believe that if arsenal, city, PSG and atletico will take the advantages from playing at home.

The odds from these clubs are so good. No doubt that if picking the clubs that will play at home as very good choice.

It's a shame that 2 team that have been anticipated to have a highest chance of winning, Man City and Real Madrid will play against each other in the quarter final. I think many were hoping for these two to meet in the final.
I think, Man City will make it to go through, but it won't be easy, especially given the competition in Premier League is super-tight, with 3 teams having almost the same number of points. Real currently has a comfy 7 points advantage over Girona in LaLiga. If they keep it they would be able to rest their key players before games against Man City.
My picks/guesses for winners of other pairs: PSG, Atletico, Bayern

Am sure Arsenal was not expecting bayern again all they were concern about was to qualify after how many years what a big celebration for Arsenal and its fans but they can not celebrate because the fear of bayern will be in there mind. In fact when I saw the record of the way that bayern have beaten Arsenal I was just like wow. But now Arsenal are big boys. And they can handle there selfes. The result is more than embarrassing and we all know that bayern are dangerous and then the capacity of bayern is not on the same level with arsenal at on then but even no bayern is not like before. And even bayern playing them won't be easy at all and they won't even try to underestimate Arsenal if not they will get surprised. Real Madrid vs Manchester City will be a little difficult to predict because does guys are also goo. It is going to be a shoot to shoot game this when the Champions League will get interesting.

Atlético Madrid is surely luck team for the as they are able to beat Inter Milan into round of the 16 and now having team like Borussia Dortmund which is currently struggling into Bundesliga and fighting hard for the top 4, but they are also having spot into quarterfinal which is good, but now things are not into their control because Atlético Madrid is surely not going to give them any chance for having any win in these games most chances we will have them into semifinal which will be achievement for them.

In all other games, we will have fair open chances for all top teams even many are feeling Manchester City could be favourite to go into last four, but it's surely going to be not easy for them because their performance is surely not as we have them into last season, so this is also wide-open game with any team can win and go to next round with their quality performance.

Yes, of course it's true that Real Madrid and Manchester City shouldn't have met in the first place, but what can the result of the draw mean is that they have to beat each other in order to qualify for the semifinals. I see that the two elite teams have the same chance, it's just that the situation and condition of the team will make the difference.

In terms of experience, Real Madrid clearly has everything to take into account. Carlo Ancelotti will definitely try his best to beat Guardiola again. But this match is still not easy for the two coaches because they already understand each other's character very well. Likewise, Guardiola also has a big desire to beat Madird in order to ease his way to the final and defend his title.

This is an unpredictable match, and I don't think that any team is stronger than the other. Last two seasons, they clashed in the semifinals, which Real Madrid kicked them out. Last season they clashed in the semifinals again, and City kicked out Madrid. Now they will clash earlier than before which is in the quarter finals.

The strongest will be able amongst these two clubs will be the one that will move to the semifinals. Real Madrid mifht want to use this match as a revenge to what City did to them last season. Likewise City might want to also prove to Real Madrid that they are still stronger than them by defeating Real. This is the biggest game in the league this season, because they are the best in their local leagues currently.

The quarterfinal matchup between Arsenal and Bayern Munich is one of the best in champions league football that I have seen thus far. Although it is obvious that Bayern Munich is not as strong as they were in previous seasons, that doesn't mean Arsenal can't win; Bayern Munich is a formidable opponent in the champions league. On the other hand, Arsenal struggles mightily against its opponents in the premier league. We should also be aware that Arsenal struggles to defeat Porto, so how can they defeat Bayern Munich? Arsenal games used to be difficult because Bayern Munich consistently outscored Arsenal in every encounter.

Barcelona vs. PSG is another match that promises to be very exciting to watch. This is because Dembele will be facing his official teammates, who have called him a betrayer for moving to PSG when Barcelona needed him. I would like him to score in the match so that Barcelona will feel even more pain and regret for making such a statement about him. The only other match that I can think of where the draw feature went wrong is Real Madrid vs. Manchester City. Real Madrid faced Manchester City only the season before, and Real Madrid was eliminated by Manchester City because of their poor performance. This season, I don't think Manchester City will easily defeat Real Madrid.

It is very unfortunate if Manchester City and Madrid meet sooner this season, currently both teams are in quite good form and certainly will be very promising for an exciting final match if the two meet in the final later, but how else the drawing has brought together the two giants in the quarterfinals of the Champions League this season, as you said if the match will certainly be a match like a final because both of them certainly do not want to be eliminated sooner this season.

Speaking of experience, of course no one doubts that Madrid is the king of the Champions League, and if we compare the experience of the two in the Champions League of course Manchester City will not be comparable, but, I think that is not what we refer to in betting, currently Manchester and Madrid are at the top of their respective league league standings so we can say if their performance is quite balanced,  But I think the mentality that Manchester City has at the moment is bigger than Madrid, let you see how difficult Madrid are to qualify for the quarter-finals and even they have to work very hard against Leipzig, while Manchester City actually have no difficulty at all when reaching the quarter-finals, besides that I think the squad owned by Manchester at the moment is still better than Madrid so it is likely that Manchester City will Can beat Madrid later.

Among the matches you listed, I think these one will be the one that is hard to predict. although I don’t know if Bayern Munich are going to surprise, but obviously Arsenal are doing better than Bayern Munich. Bayern Munich are not that strong these season. and their performance is not like Arsenal own. And given that Arsenal are looking for way to qualify for  the quarter finals I believe they will dominate to the match so they can win the game, so let see how the result of the game will be.


I think these one also look tough, to me. because Real Madrid and Manchester city are in their best form even though their performances can not be compared, but when it comes to match like these there is no opponent that we will underrated. because the other team we think might win may make a slight move that will give the other squad winning.
