After a series of bad results they have gotten so far in the UCL, Milan do have to fight hard to secure their current chances to qualify for the next round, after beating Madrid in the previous match, of course now they have greater motivation in the match, especially if the opponent they are facing is not a strong team in my opinion.

For the Barcelona vs Brest match, I agree that Barcelona are the favourites, however, football is always full of surprises, and Brest could have provided an unexpected resistance like when they held Leverkusen to a draw.

Bayern vs PSG, the two teams who are the rulers of the league will each determine who is the best in the match, but so far I think Munich has the advantage because of their experience and mentality in the UCL.

Inter Milan and Manchester City have a greater chance of winning, in addition to better squad quality, of course the opponent they are facing is not a team that have the potential to beating their in the match, while Arsenal vs Sporting, I think the match will be difficult to predict given their current performance.

PSG must win this match against Bayern Munich but when PSG have to start an important match like this, they would fail this match. PSG despite of so much money spent for transfers and developments in the last 10 years or a little bit longer, still have very weak mentality. When facing with biggest clubs and opponents in Europe, they usually become very fragile and can collapse anytime.

This time, they will begin this match with big fear that if they can not win it, or lose it, they will see chance to be eligible for play off matches in Champions League drops more. With this required approach to win, PSG will lose this match as Bayern Munich have enough star players, experience and stronger mentality to beat PSG.

It would be very exciting if Madrid played with their full squad, unfortunately many players had to be absent from this match including Vini Jr. but it seems that in the Liverpool camp, several players are suspected of being absent from this match, some of their players' status is in doubt. However, Liverpool is still more favored based on the betting exchange. Moreover, it can be said that Liverpool is in a positive trend, both in the Domestic League and the Champions League. To be honest, I don't dare to speculate on this match even though Madrid doesn't field their starting eleven. Because if Mbappe is in prime condition, he is a very deadly striker. Let's see what Carlo Ancelotti plans, because after all Madrid needs full points in this match.


For this match, I doubt PSG's performance, especially Bayern also needs a win of course. What is certain is that this match seems no less exciting because after all these two teams are elite teams in the Domestic League. Although, I prefer Bayern Munich to get full points. My question is, will Enrique target full points after they failed in several of their matches. This is interesting, we are waiting for this match to be held.

SK Slovan Bratislava 17:45 AC Milan
Sparta Prague 17:45 Atletico Madrid
BSC Young Boys Bern 20:00 Atalanta
Barcelona 20:00 Brest
Bayer Leverkusen 20:00 Red Bull Salzburg
Bayern Munich 20:00 Paris Saint-Germain
Inter Milan 20:00 RB Leipzig
Manchester City 20:00 Feyenoord
Sporting Lisbon 20:00 Arsenal

Games of today.

So this will be the last call for AC Milan Probably, if they lose they may be in the last 8 spots and miss the playoff.
Can Brest beat Barca? I doubt, this should the start of their fall.

Bayern - PSG, can end in a draw.
Inter, City, Arsenal for the win.

I can't agree with you in this. PSG is much more inconsistant than Bayern Munich in UCL. They lost 2 times, 1 draw, and 1 win, though, they got easy fixtures compared to the Bayern Munich. They're also very inconsistent in their domestic league by conceding a lot of goals. Meanwhile, Bayern Munich is the domestic league with very good goals productivity.

I'd bet on Bayern instead of PSG, and why? They're playing a home game. Their attackers are still at peak performance, and i think they relatively better in term of stats in UCL. The gap betwee Bayern Munich'd odds to the PSG is relatively big, which is 1.62 to 5.65. I only emphasize that if Bayern's odds is not convincing me to think they're gonna win with huge margin against PSG. The gap between Bayern's odds to the PSG makes me think they will win the game with narrow score. I predict 1-0/2-1 Bayern win.

In football we can write out any club or team regardless of what their previous performance could have been, Manchester City is a big club and their previous records still holds a lot of potential inntge mind if many football analyst and sport bettors so for tgat they going to be betting along that old record sentiment, and saying that Manchester City is up against a smaller club make the match more easy to predict and not saying this because i am favoring Manchester City but of the fact that their current crisis can not ruin their chances in this game because with their current performance their can still easily win this match in ground style Feyenoord coach Van parsie is an old player that have long term experience in the championship, and haven't won their last 5 matches, have placed Feyenoord on the top ranks team for this season and for that their may have some little chances,. So the match will not be an easy one for both clubs and the march is going to be recording a lot of goals scores because both team will definitely score, but my prediction is still in favor of Manchester City.

All the clubs mentioned above have also been beaten timeless times in the past by Manchester City and if not because of the crisis and injured player's on Manchester City lineup, none could have still meet up with man City in this season, but then beating Manchester City in one of two games won't automatically weak or outright Manchester City being the giant of champions league, Liverpool, Tottenham could at least bring stronger resistance but all the other clubs you mentioned, won against Manchester City this season all by luck and not skills of the game.
Nice prediction but below is my own prediction.

Manchester City win
Liverpool and Real Madrid draw
Sporting Lisbon win.

Good luck to you!

So many favorites in todays matches and i think they might all win but always someone slips up just a matter of who. Want to pick most of the favorites to win but someone always slips up. Sporting vs Arsenal should be intresting expecting a really good match between them and between Bayern Munich and PSG

Out of all 9 games, I think this four will be very interesting to watch out for. But I think UEFA didn't do a good job in the time schedule due to the quality of games that are being played within a specific time. Ideally, the Bayern and Arsenal game are two different games that will definitely catch a lot of attention and those who watch football would want to watch the both of them, but that won't happen because both games will kick off at same time.

For my prediction, I will give Bayern Munich the win over PSG, Inter to win or draw,
and  Leverkusen to win.

But the main game that I will be watching tonight is the Arsenal/Sporting game. I believe most of us won't forget the heavy defeat that the Portuguese side gave to the current premier league champions 2 weeks back. The same Sporting will be in action against another premier league side that seem to have found their rhythm after so many defeats and losses. Not sure if this is a kind of game to make Predictions on as the result can go either way.

A good and very reasonable assumption because Manchester City is currently under a lot of pressure so if Feyenoord is able to play its role well on the field the opportunity to beat Manchester City is very open. Imagine if you lose to Feyenoord then return to the Premier League and are ready to be welcomed by Liverpool at Anfield. 

Breast has remained undefeated in the champions league because they have not met a proper team. They have been meeting teams that are almost in same bracket with them that's why they are yet to taste defeat. Not that I'm underating them, but I strongly believe that today they are going to taste their first defeat in the hand of Barcelona. That their unbeaten run has to come to an end. If Barcelona cannot beat a team like breast then they should forget about lifting the champions League this season. This time around, with or without Lamin Yamal Barcelona should beat Breast. But they have to be careful because this breast team are fast with the ball. Defensively they are also good, so Barcelona shouldn't allow them score the opening goal because if they do, it won't be an easy ride for them.

Well, actually it would be more exciting if both teams played all their mainstay players and both teams played with maximum strength. But yeah, I think even if Real Madrid loses this match, we can understand that. because they did not play with their full strength. But I'm sure the match will still be very fierce. And Mbappe should try even harder because he will be the spearhead who must be reliable in completing attacks.

For the Bayern vs PSG match, perhaps we can expect both teams to score goals. And I hope there are lots of goals in today's match.

Today, nine Champions League matches are scheduled: 

1. Slovan vs. AC Milan 
2. Sparta Prague vs. Atletico Madrid 
3. Manchester City vs. Feyenoord 
4. Barcelona vs. Brest 
5. Bayern Munich vs. PSG 
6. Inter Milan vs. RB Leipzig 
7. Young Boys vs. Atalanta 
8. Bayer Leverkusen vs. Red Bull Salzburg 
9. Sporting vs. Arsenal 

Which match are you planning to watch, and which team would you bet on to win?

Five consecutive defeats in all competitions are a heavy blow for Manchester City, they will certainly try to end these minor results to return to winning ways. On paper, Manchester City have the edge over Feyenoord in every way, they are highly motivated to win this match to improve their position in the standings.

I have a different viewpoint from the prediction you made.

Manchester City will try to take advantage of the home game to win.
Sporting have just lost Amorim, there will be a gap in their performance under the new manager, Arsenal will dominate this time.
Real Madrid's chances of winning this game are very small, maybe 10%, the reason is because many key players are injured and Vinicius has also been confirmed to miss this game. On the other hand, Liverpool are in their best form and their goal productivity is very good.

There is also Bayern Munich vs. PSG, but I think you are right that the most anticipated match is the Liverpool vs. Real Madrid match. But sadly Real Madrid is missing their best line-up and whenever you have these giants meet in the Champions League, you would want both teams to have their best line-ups available. I think that is clearly a huge disadvantage for Real Madrid as having the perfect substitute for Vinicius Junior is impossible. But since more players are going to miss the game against Liverpool, it is even worse for Real Madrid. Hopefully it will still be a somewhat level playing field. Wouldn't be nice to see Real Madrid getting destroyed because players are missing.

Well everyone is entitled to there own thoughts and opinions but still I beg to differ on this one. Yes Manchester city may be in very terrible form and this has surprised the whole footballing world, regardless I will never write Manchester city out especially in the champions league, yes they got embarrassed by sporting CP the last time out but I don't see how Feyenoord is going to defeat Manchester city today

Also I don't think sporting CP will beat Arsenal today. Arsenal were hit with injury problems but from the looks of things they seem to be recovering and they have stellar performing players like Martin back. Also they are carry a good form from the weekend into today.

Liverpool and real Madrid is a tight one for me. Liverpool is in the best form but Madrid are also doing well now. I think this game will be difficult and may end as a draw.

PS. You don't fancy English premier league teams ehh?

For tomorrow's match, the most anticipated match and perhaps the most interesting is the Liverpool vs Real Madrid match. And the meeting of two giant clubs from two different leagues will definitely produce a fierce match. But historically, it turns out that Real Madrid is always the favorite. But this time the opposite could happen. Because the absence of Real Madrid's main players due to injury could really be a big problem for the Real Madrid squad. And especially the absence of Vinicius Jr. Fortunately, Real Madrid's attack line has many quality players who are always ready to replace Vinicius Jr. What is more worrying is still the same, namely the back line of the Real Madrid squad.

But in today's match we also have a match that will be very exciting, namely the Bayern Munich vs PSG match. I think this will be no less interesting than the Liverpool vs Real Madrid match.

My predictions for these three matches are:
Manchester City vs Feyenoord: Manchester City has a big chance of winning even though Manchester City is experiencing a decline.
Sporting Lisbon vs Arsenal: A draw is the likely result.
Liverpool vs Real Madrid: A draw is also the most likely result. Liverpool are indeed on a good track, but they will not easily beat Real Madrid. So my bet is that both teams can score.
If my prediction is like that, what odds do I get to bet on?

Who's gonna bet Feyenoord to win? Manchester City was lose streak in 5 match.

If we want to talk about the quality, Manchester City is above than Tottenham, Brighton, Sporting Lisbon, Bournemouth, but the reality these teams successfully beat Manchester City.

Here's my prediction for interesting match:

Manchester City vs Feyenoord, Feyenoord win.
Sporting Lisbon vs Arsenal, Sporting Lisbon win.
Liverpool vs Real Madrid, Real Madrid win.

The match between Real Madrid and Liverpool is going to be the most interesting in the Champions League. Liverpool are performing well in the English Premier League and they are at the top of the points table with full points in one match after another while Real Madrid have performed poorly in some matches but now they are back in the competition quite well.  

However, Real Madrid may face the biggest problem with the absence of Vinicius Jr. Because in the last match this Madrid winger got a bit injured on the field and he was out for four weeks.
Apart from Vinicius Junior, Madrid have good quality players so if every player performs at their best against Liverpool then I think we can definitely do well against Liverpool.

Brest have performed well in UEFA Champion League matches after winning 3 of 4 matches and success being draw when facing Bayern Leverkusen, indeed still not defeating top teams but Brest have potential become difficult opponent team for Barcelona.
Comparison at domestic league performance, Brest have poor performance and dropped 12th standings in Ligue 1 and difference with Barcelona success leading the first standings position.

Barcelona have bit problem with their favorite player Lamine Yamal still absent, last match being draw by Celta Vigo due Lamine Yamal absent and I think get difficult when facing Brest today in  Champion League match. However, Brest indeed not perform well in domestic league but they have unbeaten until four games in Champion League and success reach the top fourth standings place awhile.
