The game between Newcastle and PSG was the one I wanted to see the most as it was really unclear to me who would take control of the game. PSG has overwhelmingly more ball possession and Newcastle has all the chances. This is odd because PSG has one of the strongest offensive trio out there and despite almost 70% ball possession they are not able to create chances? I wonder how that is possible and that not even Mbappe was able to have a shot on target. It can only mean that Newcastle is defending extremely well here and that is usually a difficult job against so many high level offenders. But this is also a bummer for PSG I am sure. This was the game that they should have won and they would have earned some respect back.

I feel there is a chance in this Champions League to see Machester United failing to pass this stage in the group because they are not in good form at all. Also Manchester United is getting worse and it seems Ten Hag has no idea about how to solve the problem. Letting Antony play was a huge mistake from this coach.

PSG is not only one goal behind, but now they are 2-0 behind Newcastle. None of the PSG players managed a shot on target in the first half, even if they had 3 shots. Newcastle's defense was so good that PSG's attackers had difficulty penetrating and finding space to shoot, clearly this was not a good sign for PSG.

Meanwhile, Barcelona managed to close the first half with a score of 0-1 through Ferran Torres' goal. It started with Romário Baró's mistake which then allowed Ilkay Gundogan to provide a fine assist for Ferran's goal. Unfortunately Lewandowski had to suffer an injury due to the hard tackle he received in the first half, this is clearly bad for Barcelona if the injury is serious enough.

Manchester United have put themselves under a lot of pressure now by not winning Galatasaray.
Man United play Copenhagen away next and it is a must-win game if they're to keep their hopes of qualifying alive. With what Copenhagen played against Bayern Munich, I won't be surprised if Man United doesn't win that match.

Copenhagen were really good, way better than they played in their opening match against Galatasaray. I would love to see how they would do against Manchester United.
If Man United fail to win they're halfway out of the competition because I don't think they'll be able to win Galatasaray in Turkey or Bayern Munich.

Newcastle are now leading with a 1 goal from Almiron in just 17 minutes of play with a great attacking performance and just as my guts told me regarding Newcastle current form they won't be an easy side to beat tonight despite playing against an much experience UCL side PSG.

mancity are missing kelvin Debryune beautiful free kicks, Leipzig defending very fine making sure city do not see those gaps to secure a goal but city keep pressurizing which has earned them a 1 goal too scored by foden. It seems the EPL teams are taking vengeance based on the scoreline of yesterday's results with the two EPL team losing their games.

I am also eagerly awaiting the match. I am certain the energy around St. James' Park will be electric for this match. Champions league night returns to the stadium and to start the journey they have a top top European team to battle against, will be a great way to announce themselves to the rest f Europe if they can come up with a win, even though I am not confident that they would.

PSG are used to playing in the UCL and know how to make it out of the group stage while winning matches like tonight's. Newcastle players can easily get overwhelmed with the stage and what is at stake.

MU's prime gone when ferguson announced his retirement. There's nothing left other than a club that is always going up and down drastically. MU was never playing as good as onec ferguson was still a coach.
Everything changed a lot and many years wasted to search someone who was capable enough to handle the team as good as ferguson but MU never found any.

I have been seeing this club coached by so many coaches but the result was still far from what achieved by ferguson with manchester united. There will be not a new coach who will be able to bring united to go up again.
Ten hag was just overrated guy and the fans were over proud of him. The won against palace in EFL cup made the players were over confidence with their performance.

As you can see that manchester united has been losing its soul. MU will always be running in the same place. Despite the numerous changes in coaches, it appears that their impact on assembling the puzzle has not been very significant.

Well, even though Milan are playing away but at least Milan still have a chance to win. But yes, if Milan fail to win then maybe, Milan will get a draw for the second time in this group stage. Because I think, their current quality does not seem to be much different so yes, do not be surprised if the odds available also at least do not have a big difference. Therefore, I personally think the match will probably end in a draw because yes, usually Dortmund are not very good at scoring goals in Champion League matches. But maybe in this match Dortmund will be able to play more aggressively, so they will manage to score but as for which team will win I think it is difficult to predict.

Newcastle vs PSG & Dortmund vs AC Milan in Group F tonight, the group of death. I’ll be mostly focused on these games. I think they’re the most interesting in many ways.

I have a bit of a soft spot for Celtic so I’m backing them to beat Lazio too. You will find it hard to see a better atmosphere than Celtic Park on a European night. Hopefully they create a cauldron of noise to unsettle Lazio.

For tonight, I'm going to watch AC Milan vs Borussia Dortmund. I think it will be a great game and can't wait to see how it'll end. I'm a long-time Milan fan, so I'm hoping Milan will win this game but BVB could be in good form today and could also win. It's going to be a hard match for both teams and I believe it will be an exciting game to watch with friends while I enjoy a cup of coffee.

Enjoy your bets and watching the games fellas!

Porto vs Barcelona.

On matchday 2 of Group H of the Champions League this season, the match between Porto and Barcelona at the Estadio do Dragao will start in the next few hours. on the first matchday, Porto and Barcelona both won. Porto won the away match against Shaktar Donetsk, while Barcelona beat Royal Antwerp at Camp Nou.
In this match, Porto as the home team does not want to lose points to secure their position in the group H phase. Which means, they will go all out to provide resistance to Barcelona.
Meanwhile for Barcelona, ​​several of its core players had to be absent due to injury. Raphinha, De Jong, will definitely be absent from this match. Meanwhile, Pedri's status is in doubt. However, it could be that Pedri will be played, but starting from the bench.
Meanwhile for Porto, several of their players were also absent due to injury, including Pepe's status in doubt. but apparently, they have options instead.

Well, because I am a Barcelona supporter, of course I hope they can win this match. however, Xavi will rotate some of his players.  for the defense line, Xavi will play his core players. in midfield, there is a change in rotation. What is certain is that in the midfield there are Gavi, Oriol Romeu and IIkay Gundohan. for the front strikers, Joao Felix, Lewandowski and Lamine Yamal. and hopefully, Barcelona will play with their best performance. betting on Barcelona with odds @1.80, seems pretty good.

Napoli showed class and deserved a win but they were not just fortunate. The goal from Bellingham was stunning and was a product of individual efforts. But the other two goals were products of luck. Napoli captain Di Lorenzo caused the first goal when he gave out the ball in a dangerous position which led to the goal by Júnior. The third goal was a wonder strike but the goal was aided by the head of Napoli goalkeeper Meret. Real Madrid will be pleased to get this important three points because Group C is becoming competitive. The fans celebrated Napoli players after the game because it was clear that they deserved to win.

Start of the second half is impressive for the Simeone's Atlético Madrid as they take early lead through Morata second goal of the game now they need to keep game's momentum at this level and try to keep pressure on Feyenoord which is also doing good job and will try his best for the another equalizer of this game if they are able to have another equalizer this could be perfect for them because this point is going to be important for them if they want to have spot into next round of this season Champions League.

In second match, Antwerp is having good performance in first half now after start of the second half we have first goal from the Shakhtar Donetsk through Sikan with both teams are looking for the first win of this season in this event, hopefully things will be interesting near the end of this match.
