Yeah, if we refer to Sociedad's match in the group phase, the squad coached by Imanol Alguacil advanced with quite good results with 12 points they achieved. 3 matches with a win, 3 matches with a draw. however, in the last 4 matches in two different competitions, Sociedad did not produce perfect points. three matches with a draw, the last match with a defeat.

On the other hand, PSG has been far from impressive in its domestic league. so far, Paris Saint-Germain has almost always achieved positive results. unfortunately, in the Champions League PSG's performance was not that impressive. especially, when playing away matches. in the group F phase, PSG was only able to rank 2nd. in the match which will be held in a short time, it seems that Luis Enrique's squad is quite ready to host the match against Real Sociedad. it seems that Enrique already has a standard that he can rely on when fighting to host Real Sociedad, so it is very likely that Paris Saint-Germain will use a 4-3-3 pattern. Dembele, Mbappe, Assensio, look like they will be included in the starting eleven in this match. the rest, PSG is filled with its core players in each line. as for their two young strikers, Goncalo and Kolo Miani, it looks like they will start from the reserve bench.

In the Real Sociedad camp, it looks like Imano Alguacil will use a 4-3-3 pattern. what is certain is that Real Sociedad will not just give up even though the match is played at the Parc des Princes. referring to the betting market, bookies give odds to Real Sociedad with odds @5.40, while Paris Saint-Germain with odds @1.66. my estimate for this match is that PSG will win, but the ideal betting option is the Over 2.5 goals @1.94 option. well, let's wait

I think it's much simpler than that. Real Sociedad in general this season is not very good, looking at their statistics for the last 5 matches I think that the maximum they can count on is a draw and I doubt it. PSG are not so bad to lose to them, I think the round of 1/8 for PSG a priori passed

The second half has just begun, and Lazio created good chances which they couldn't utilized it properly. It will be a difficult match for Bayern Munich because in the first half Lazio defense was strong enough to stop Bayern players from scoring.

On the other hand, we can see some surprise from Bayern in this second half, because Bayern is a strong club and much is expected from them in this match. Bayern are now trying to create opportunities which they can use to find the back of the net, but Lazio seems to be very careful with their defense.

That doesn't mean much. Champions League is a completely different competition to the league. You could have seen it yesterday with Leipzig against Real. Leipzig have a lot of problems in the league at the moment and were still on a par with Real. If they hadn't been penalized by the referee, they would have at least drawn. The fact that the game between PSG and Real Sociedad was only a draw at half-time supports this theory.

Bayern Munich lost the most important game of the season a few days ago, they must be very depressed. The Champions League is not lost now, but there are currently 3 teams that are much stronger than Bayern Munich and so they maybe play a season without a title. It is been over 10 years since the last time, so it is a very bad performance and I think the Problem is the coach, like that last season... only with a lot of luck did win the m Championship in germany. If they dont score today, Bayern Munich could have a good chance to win at home in the second match.

Statistically PSG and Bayern did well in the Champions League. A few years ago they met in the final. So I agree with you that we can expect them to win today. I don't think Real Sociedad can beat PSG, and Lazio is not the club to beat Bayern.

Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga match only controls the ball too quickly in putting pressure on the opposite to the opponent is very important to make the opponent's mentality decrease but the problem is not in the Bundesliga, so I will not be sure if Tuchel will do the same strategy at UCL.
against Lazio is not a tough task even though this match Bayern Munich will compete as a guest but see I guess there will be 2 scores that will be printed by Munich or even more.
maybe in the Bundesliga it looks bad lately but I still believe the victory will belong to Bayrn Munich.

Today, there is UEFA Champions League round of 16 matches first leg. In my opinion, the favorite teams are PSG and Bayern Munich. I feel like we will watch very enjoyable matches.

PSG's starting XI against Real Sociedad: Donnarumma, Hakimi, Marquinhos, Danilo Pereira, Beraldo, Zaire-Emery, Fabian Ruiz, Vitinha, Dembele, Barcola, Mbappe. Real Sociedad's starting XI against PSG : Remiro, Traore, Zubeldia, Le Normand, Galan, Mendez, Zubimendi, Merino, Kubo, Barrenetxea, Andre Silva.

Bayern Munich's starting XI against Lazio: Neuer, Mazraoui, Upamecano, Kim Min Jae, Guerreiro, Kimmich, Goretzka, Sane, Müller, Musiala, Kane. Lazio's starting XI against Bayern Munich : Provedel, Marusic, Gila, Romagnoli, Hysaj, Guendouzi, Vecino, Luis Alberto, Isaksen, Felipe Anderson, Immobile.

However, today it looks like the PSG vs Real Sociedad match will be much more interesting than the Lazio vs Bayern Munich match. Because Bayern Munich has an opponent that is not very balanced in my opinion, I prefer to see the match for PSG because at least there is a little balance in terms of performance even though Real Sociedad has started to not be very good in some of its matches recently. However, in the Champions League anything can happen because Real Sociedad can also surprise PSG with their performance.

Do you think there would be any surprise result today? Honestly I hope to see PSG and Bayern Munich both winning just as Real Madrid and Manchester City did yesterday. But the odds just look really interesting on the other hand.    PSG and Bayern Munich both have way higher odds than my expectations. I checked out the missing players to see if there are crucial players missing.

But as far as I can see there isn't such situation. PSG have been very good in home matches so far. Maybe Bayern Munich have looked unstable about performance in the Champions League but they are still way better than Lazio.

We have seen PSG fail against Spanish teams in the past. Despite having a strong squad, they could not win against the Spanish team. However, this season's opponents, Real Sociedad, are a little less experienced and a little weaker than Barcelona and Atletico Madrid. This team plays a defensive strategy and usually tries to draw the matches this season. Sociedad does not have a strong attack. On the other hand, PSG's attack is quite strong this season with the help of Dembele, Mbappe and Ramos. And they have a fantastic coach like Luis Enrique. Enrique is an experienced coach on the Champions League platform. So it is expected that PSG will win today's match if they don't make any big mistakes.

Manchester City won away as I expected.I was thinking 1-3 and that's how it ended.I was lucky for that because the third goal came in the last minutes.City had an overwhelming superiority over Copenhagen and could have scored more goals, but the goalkeeper made some good saves.I can say that he almost shut the opponent down. There is not much Copenhagen can do in this round, most probably they will not win in the away game and they will be eliminated.I think we can say that it was a success for them to come here.Maybe if they got a draw at home, they could have taken it to extra time away.

Despite Bayern Munich's current lackluster form, I remain optimistic about their chances against Lazio. This optimism stems from their extensive experience in Champions League matches compared to Lazio. Therefore, it's plausible that Bayern Munich could emerge victorious. Their history of football against Lazio in head-to-head encounters further supports this belief. Consequently, I am inclined to consider Bayern Munich as the favorites for tonight's match. However, the unpredictability of football means that anything can happen, and tonight's game might present a different narrative altogether.So, while Bayern Munich holds the edge based on past performances and experience, the outcome remains uncertain until the final whistle blows.
