Copenhagen was not comparable to the Manchester City. Manchester City cannot be compared to any team with this performance. Manchester City is a very strong team. I don't perceive any opportunity for Copenhagen to progress to the next round. De Bruyne for Manchester City once again as he registered a goal and 2 assist to proved how important a player.

That was a highly expected winning for Manchester City in the last night's game and winning with a 3 goals to none was quite a big win for Manchester City and I believe that they are going to finish this season on a very good note being the defending champion.

But then we may have to take a close look at clubs like Real Madrid to be one of Manchester City's strongest obstacles because, at some point, these are the two clubs that are the most likely hood lift the trophy in this season.

Bayer Leverkusen remains far ahead of Bayern Munich on the Bundesliga rankings. If Bayern falters domestically, winning the Champions League could be the only way for Tuchel to keep his job. Coach Thomas Tuchel must change the style of play by deploying the ball quickly and limiting excess passes in the air. Harry Kane's form is the main factor leading to Bayern's success. The prospect of a blank season is opening up for Bayern Munich. Therefore, the pressure on Kane and Tuchel also becomes greater. I believe that with class and extensive experience in the European arena, this is also an opportunity for coach Thomas Tuchel's team to stabilize their mentality and regain confidence. A victory against Lazio will open the door for that.

Yes, Grabara did a good job yesterday, it is clear that the fans treat him very respectfully, but he could not help his team, and City secured a victory, enough for the return match to become a formality. By the way, the Copenhagen goalkeeper will leave for Wolfsburg this summer. Today the Lazio goalkeeper will need to do the same work, Kane and Sane will create pressure on their goal and I hope they will be able to show a more meaningful game than in the match with Bayer.

Man City deserved to win this match, Man City appeared dominant from all directions. However, unfortunately Man Cty's victory in this match was less than satisfactory because Halaand did not score a goal. It's true, Halaand doesn't always have to score goals because his presence itself becomes a bait for their attacks. but as a great striker, it wouldn't be good if he didn't score.

Very different from Kevin De Bruyne, even though he hasn't played for a long time, he has returned from injury brilliantly with 2 goals and 7 assists. His first performance against Newcastle was a standout with him coming off the bench to get a goal and an assist in the space of 20 minutes after Man City had gone a goal down. I think the match against Copenhagen he managed to show a masterclass from him with 1 goal and 1 assist against Copenhagen to give his team victory. There was something special about Kevin De Bruyne going into the knockout stages of the Champions League and more importantly after returning from a long injury, one might have thought he would show signs of regression and he was the exact opposite of that and he also had a huge impact on Manchester City to win the premier league title and return to the champions league this season.

The score didn't reflect the reality because City could have score 10 goals last night just in first half but somehow they barely scored 3. I also think that UCL is very unbalanced in this phase of tournament and I won't be surprised to see Bayern scoring at least 4 times against Lazio today and basically obtaining the qualification in proportion of 99%... . Hopefully , today we will have tight games and top class football.

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.

Sociedad played well in the group matches and I was surprised that they ended up in first place, performed better than Inter. But the last matches for Sociedad have been terrible. They haven't scored in the last four matches. I think they will not be able to score to PSG and will lose.

So Real Sociedad also wants to win in this match but a draw is more than enough.

Luis Enrique did set the strategy earlier where Mbappe had to be rested in his domestic league match but if we see some PSG players don't get any problems so we can say the players are still in good shape so when it becomes the first match for the last 16 then it feels important for PSG to win at home.

Maybe we can also conclude from Real Sociedad's away game which is not good, but I will not underestimate this team because however when playing in the champions league the appearance is always different but in theory then PSG is likely to win.

Real Sociedad betting market with odds of 5.00 but that's not a good opportunity for Sociedad to win.

Real Sociedad hasn't been doing great in their local league lately. However, it's important not to solely rely on their domestic performance to judge their overall capabilities. This is especially true because they're now competing in a different tournament against a team from another league. Just because PSG is excelling in their own league doesn't automatically make them superior to Real Sociedad. Since it's the first encounter between the two teams, it's premature to predict the outcome. The only factor that might give PSG a slight edge is the fact that they're playing on their home turf.Nonetheless, the dynamics of the game could shift unexpectedly, making it unwise to make definitive conclusions based solely on this aspect.


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.

Well Real Madrid are one team that’s now looking unstoppable especially when they’re halving injury scare. This team had been built in such a way that when a player is out on injury, the imapct isn’t really felt by the club.Yes as they’re still able to still get the wins they need. The win over Girona has been a big boost to their league title chase and this is also a scare sign to other clubs in the league who are thinking of winning them.

 Currently they’re the only outstanding club in the league and I’m very confident that if they keep playing like this, then they’ll win the league earlier than expected. The addition kf Jude to this team was on point as he’s presence is the real pivot in this team’s success this season and we must commend Madrid Scout for making sure he was signed to the club.

If Bayern Munich fires Tuchel at the end of next season because he failed to win the title, then I believe Bayern Munich must find a coach who actually has a tendency to win titles rather than one who likes challenges like Tuchel. I think Tuchel is very worthy of being retained as coach regardless of the final result this season, but of course people always want titles and trophies.

If Bayern Munich can win the title this season in the Bundesliga, then who is the king other than those who keep winning it? This is not very good for a competition that sends 4 representatives to the Champions League, looking the same as Ligue 1. Regarding today's match, Bayern Munich and PSG are both favorites to win. Lazio and Real Sociedad know that, but they have a home advantage that cannot be completely underestimated.

Luis Enrique wants to win this match. And  for this he has probably been planning for a long time. In the last match of Ligue 1, PSG played against the renowned team of Ligue 1, Lille. Luis Enrique rested Mbappe in this important match as well. He did not want to take any risk by keeping Mbappe in the squad. However, apart from Mbappe, Ramos, Asensio and Dembele are in good form. These three players are also performing well. So PSG will try their best to win today's match against Real Sociedad.

Real Sociedad's performance in away  matches is not good. Out of 12 away matches in La Liga, Sociedad have won 4 matches and lost 3 matches. Real Sociedad will play at PSG's home in today's match. Sociedad players will probably try to draw the match.

Copenhagen vs Man City Today's game Man City team players won the match with 3 goals. Man City team goalkeeper Ederson gave a very good service. But Copenhagen team goalkeeper K. Grabara made a mistake so K. Grabara team lost today's match. M.  Elyounoussi and E. Achouri did not do well in today's match. Man City team played very well in the field from the beginning to the end of the game.

I didn't watch this match, but referring to the statistics of the match between Leipzig versus Real Madrid, the match was a draw with 50% ball possession for both teams. even if we refer to every opportunity between these two teams, there is actually no significant comparison. Leipzig with 14 total shots, 9 on target, 3 big chances. in contrast, Madrid had 15 total shots, 3 on target, 1 big chance, three counter attacks. however, because Leipzig was quite solid in this match, Madrid was only able to convert 1 opportunity into a goal. from a technical perspective, these two teams played quite evenly. unfortunately, the home team was unable to take advantage of every opportunity they had to convert it into goals.

Well, this match matches my prediction in the previous post. in this match, there will not be 3 goals from both teams. so, the Under option played yesterday with odds @1.87 is ideal. well, maybe in the second leg the results will be different. because the match will be held at the Santiago Bernabeu. or it could be, as you put it. If Real Madrid makes a mistake, the consequences could be fatal for them in the second leg.

Leipzig was missing a lot of chances and i think that many people are also feeling disappointed caused by leipzig was not even able scoring even a goal against real madrid. Real madrid is getting perfect result by getting 1 score away. It will also add more burden to the leipzig to win the game with huge margins.
This is also helping real madrid to perform even better in any match. It's not even weird to see that if leipzig was losing against manchester city caused by city was too strong for leipzig. this is also the main problem for all of teams in UCL caused by city is coming back with better squad.
Real madrid was not comparable to the leipzig. The goal keeper of real madrid was enough in preventing leipzig to score. It was also making leipzig's attackers were so frustrated with so many outstanding saves from real madrid's GK.
It's hard to believe if leipzig will able to change the situation in the second leg at santiago bernabeu. All in real madrid is a must consider leipzig is also having 1 goal as its burden. The club was performing good enough.

Real Sociedad during the group stage has not lost they seem to play optimistic and different from LaLiga matches but because this is the first leg at home to PSG then there will be a chance for the hosts to win, especially during the last 3 matches have not won, but I hope they are in decline because here I will choose PSG as the favorite team.

I know Bayen Munich when playing in the Champion League is difficult to beat even though they previously lost to Leverkusen, usually Champion League matches are different especially what we know Lazio in Serie A is unstable, well we always compare statistics with previous matches.

So the favorite team for the match now between PSG and Bayen Munich.

Asides of being the goalkeeper the figure of the game (im talking about the copenaghe goalkeeper) i think Copenaghe was made a super match against the current champion and also one of the contender of this year, if the last goal didnt enter we can be see a narrow 2-1, i know still not chance in Manchester but you know one goal is only one goal away from the mircale.

Sociedad performance during group stages is more impressive than PSG because at that time they were unbeatable from 6 matches and this also makes they can finish at first place above to Inter Milan but don't mean PSG also has poor performance because although PSG only finish at runner up place and they have to hard struggling to qualified to round of 16 but PSG was into hell group and it's not easy to qualified because on group stages PSG have to facing Dortmund, AC Milan and new comer team in this competition Newcastle

PSG recent records was very impressive because in the last 16 matches in all competitions PSG is still unbeatable but Sociedad has opposite performance compared to PSG because in the last 4 matches in Laliga Sociedad was failed to scores so this proven Sociedad has a problem with their front lines and today Sociedad will lost some of their defender players including Aihen Munoz i think this could be serious problem because PSG has Mbappe so he possibly can makes Sociedad defensive lines will get in trouble and PSG has odds @1.69 this indeed is not high odds but i think it could be a safe bet because certainly PSG will be the winner of this match

Rail Sociedad is not a strong team but it is not a weak team. The team has lost only 5 matches out of 24 matches in La Liga. And drew in 10 matches. The performance of this team is also good in the Champions League. The team did not lose any of the 6 matches in the group stage. Won 3 matches and drew 3 matches. That's why it won't be easy for PSG to win.

However, PSG have managed to improve their performance in recent times. The bonding between the players in the team is very good now. PSG players are able to consistently perform well. This is why I consider PSG as the favorite in today's PSG home match.
