About AC Milan vs Liverpool this is their first met after 2021 in Champion league and if we see based on head to head statistics in the last few years both teams has been met several times and i can see Liverpool has good records from Milan moreover we all know although both teams has new manager but Liverpool performance is much better compared to Milan because Liverpool under Arne Slot still managed their unbeated records since pre season tour and if we see from their recent performance i think Liverpool should be able to overcomes Milan

Liverpool have good record on AC Milan in the past and currently, they’re still in a good position to win them even when they meet head to head. The champions league is a very competitive competition and a mediocre team does not always survive in the long run except those that have that resilience and will to fight back at all cost. AC Milan won’t be a problem to Liverpool even though they’re not a mediocre team, they can’t stand a chance against Arne Slot’s Liverpool.

Quote

Just like i said before Liverpool strongest opponent for League phase is only Real Madrid and i know they also will facing Leverkusen but i don't think Leverkusen still very strong like last season even they just suffered a defeat in the Bundesliga so i am confident Liverpool also can beat Leverkusen and besides these teams Liverpool only will facing Leipzig, Bologna, Lille, PSV and Girona which the status of these teams is only mediocre teams

Liverpool is a good team and looking at the clubs they’ll be playing against, I don’t think it’s be that easy for them. For clubs like Bologna, Lille, PSV, they may not find it hard to beat them. But other teams including AC Milan could give them a tough time even though they have the better squad to beat them, it won’t be that easy for them in my opinion.

Atalanta performance was also not very impressive in Serie A last season, but in the Europa League they were able to show their best side by beating the two strongest candidates to be champions (Liverpool and Leverkusen) before finally confirming themselves as champions. Atalanta may be able to spring a surprise in the UCL, but Arsenal will not be easy to beat in their current form.

All teams always try to win in every match, but differences in quality and other unexpected things can change the outcome of the match. The new format is a bit tiring because the number of matches will increase, the coach must be able to keep his players to always maintain their best performance so they can qualify for the next round.

I don't mean to underestimate Atalanta, but when compared to other clubs in the Champions League, there are several clubs above them in terms of strength, including Arsenal in my opinion which is slightly better than Atalanta. However, they are still a club to be reckoned with and anyone who faces them must be careful.
Last season in the Europa League was a real example when they managed to beat the strongest candidate to become champions. Almost everyone was not on their side, but in the match they were actually able to become winners, including beating a club that was unbeaten in all competitions last season.
On the other hand, the difference is that because the Champions League is different from the Europa League, here they will get more pressure, so they must be ready for that by improving their mentality.

We have seen Milan perform well in friendly matches before the start of the season. We thought AC Milan would come back stronger this season. But we have yet to see Milan play well in their three matches in Serie A. The Milan team could not win even one of the three matches. Milan have drawn two and lost one.

Milan's overall condition seems weaker than last season. On the other hand, the Liverpool team is in a very good position. Liverpool's players are now very confident after winning three matches in the Premier League. Therefore, the probability of Liverpool winning against Milan is the highest. I would say Liverpool will make no mistake in this match.

Milan and Liverpool are two big European teams that have triumphed in the Champions League in the past, every time I watch their previous matches they always present very tight and balanced matches and in fact both teams often score a lot of goals in the matches that bring these two teams, The match between Milan and Liverpool is a classic match that allows us to see a match full of high intensity later, but to be honest, for this season I don't dare to expect much from Milan, even though they got impressive results in friendly matches, but this is actually the opposite with the results they are getting in the league at the moment, Milan under the guidance of Fonsesca still haven't found their best performance and even facing with teams at the weak level as Torino and Lazio they only got 1 point in the league, so facing Liverpool who are currently on fire, of course it is very doubtful if they can win.
But let's see whether we will get a surprise from Milan later or whether the pressure for Fonsesca to resign will be even stronger from Milan fans.

Fonseca has just taken over the team. Maybe we should give him a little more chance. We expect very successful matches from Milan right away, yes they are a big team and they cannot stand losing. However, sometimes you need to be patient. It hasn't even been the fifth week of the league yet, changing the manager this week would be the biggest mistake for Milan. If they want to change the manager, I think they should wait until the mid-season transfer period. Because the new manager will not be able to add any reinforcements to the team or get the players he wants. I don't think much will change in this case. Also, they were really good in the friendly matches. They are bad for now but I think they will recover.

What has happened in Serie A this season to the Atalanta team should not be taken entirely as a judgment because Atalanta could have given their best game in the Champions League this season although I also do not imagine Atalanta could beat opponents like Arsenal easily. Because in the Champions League all teams will definitely put all their best abilities into play in order to win, especially this season each team will go through a different way in the Champions League which will require each team to develop a more precise strategy.

The new format is a bit tiring because the number of matches will increase, the coach must be able to keep his players to always maintain their best performance so they can qualify for the next round.

In my opinion, we cannot refer to last season's performance to assess Atlanta's current performance, because after all each team has experienced many changes in its squad and even this season Atlanta doesn't look promising at all to be able to compete strongly in the Champions League, Arsenal vs Atlanta will be a very decisive first match for both teams because if they lose points in the first match it will really affect their performance in the next match, especially if we look at the teams they are facing is not an easy team to beat so it is very important for Atlanta and Arsenal to be able to get points in every match they played.

The new format of the Champions League allows each team must focus because currently the match no longer plays a home away phase like the old format, because each team will meet once and there is no opportunity for those who lose to take revenge at this time, with the change in the current league format champions will require a team to have sufficient squad depth because otherwise it will be difficult for the team to face the tight schedule and also the increasing number of matches in champions league.

Milan looked like world-beaters in the preseason, smashing Real Madrid and Man City. But preseason's a mirage, and Serie A is the harsh desert. They've crashed back down to earth. Not just failing to improve, but actually playing worse than last season. No wins in three games? That's a crisis

Now they're facing Liverpool, who are firing on all cylinders. Three wins, sky-high confidence. It's a nightmare matchup for Milan right now. They're shaky, they're vulnerable, and Liverpool smells blood

Milan needs to find a way to dig deep, fast. They've got the talent, but the mentality is missing. If they can't flip the switch, Liverpool will steamroll them

But still, for Milan it will be a home game, it seems to me that bookmakers estimate Liverpool's chances quite fairly - 1.88. Liverpool is the favorite, but considering the away game and the fact that this is not a playoff game when everyone plays at their best, I would not bet on Liverpool. Liverpool are doing great in the Premier League and it can be assumed that they will be maximally focused on the Premier League, and the group stage of the Champions League will be assessed on a residual basis.

In my opinion, Atalanta are not very strong this season, they have just suffered two consecutive defeats in Serie A. Arsenal, who are performing well, are one level above Atalanta, but Arteta must remain focused by fielding his best squad in order to achieve victory. Atalanta were so easy to beat in Serie A, they are very difficult to repeat the success achieved in the Europa League last season. Arsenal have always been consistent in maintaining their performance, especially this season their motivation is increasing to win the title, so Atalanta will not be too difficult for Arsenal.

I agree Atalanta this season is not too strong, when competing in the Champions League sometimes teams that perform poorly in the Domestic League can surprise us. The motivation is very different and the aura to give the best is always seen from unexpected teams. Arsenal overall is very promising and I expect 3 points for them, but the presence of Atalanta cannot be underestimated, it can give Arsenal an equal fight. The fight between teams from the Premier League strategy and teams from Serie A will certainly be quite entertaining for us. Let's say Atalanta doesn't have a high chance in Serie A to lead the standings, then they can focus their players to maximize their chances in the Champions League.

Atalanta started their season well. Atalanta started the season with a 4-0 win against Lecce in the first match. But Atalanta cannot maintain this consistency. Atalanta lost the next two matches against Torino and Inter Milan. Atalanta suffered a humiliating 4-0 defeat against Inter Milan. In such a situation, it is a big challenge for Atalanta to resist Arsenal.

Arsenal team is very strong. This team is also performing well in the Premier League. However, Arsenal failed to win the last match against Brighton. Arsenal's overall gameplay was good though. Arsenal have a lot of talented players and there is no doubt that the squad is strong.

Although Atalanta are not in good form, it will not be easy for Arsenal to win this match. Because Atalanta has the ability to perform well. Arsenal will be making a big mistake if they consider Atalanta to be weak.

Yes, I also initially thought the same as you, Milan will give their best performance this season with their new coach, but it turns out that Milan's performance was very disappointing at the beginning of this season and has not been able to get full points, while their rivals such as Inter and Juventus have won more points in the last 3 matches and are in first and second place in the standings, while Milan is in 14th place for the time being.

Milan will most likely have difficulty competing in the UCL because their first opponent is a top EPL club, while Liverpool, while in their best form, I think Milan will have difficulty facing Liverpool.

It is worth admitting that Fonseca is having a hard time working in Serie A, he got a good team after Pioli, there were some changes, but I think they could have strengthened the team, Morata is a strong forward, but the start was very difficult for them. They will play the next match with Venice, such a match must be won, and then there will be a match with Liverpool, and although it will be a home match, it will not be easy because it seems that Liverpool with Slot is no worse than it was with Klopp.

Losing points is definitely not what they’ve planned for, rather they will continue hitting more and more on their oppositions for the purposes to spark weaknesses and use that as an opportunity to explore. Rissoneri have work to do this season, they’ve to focused more on the UEFEA Champions League and also the Italian league, remember they’ve the scudetto to pursue and winning is constant for such an elite club. AC Milan will secured a good position in the UEFEA Champions League this season, it’s all just a matter of time to develop the zeal to push for great victories.

I agree with this. Liverpool is in a superior form than Milan and they will be the undisputed favourite to win that match. The only advantage Milan has is that they're at home but even that won't matter much against Liverpool in their current form.
I understand that the Champions League is different and maybe a different atmosphere for Liverpool but I don't think that would be the case based on the level of confidence Liverpool show currently.

Quote from: SmartCharpa on September 04, 2024, 05:09:35 AM

I believe we should not underestimate Leverkusen's ability against any team this season, probable they don't want any of their main players to be injured before the Champions League games, which is why they don't want to put a lot of pressure on the Bundesliga title this season after losing to Leipzig in their last game, but I'm looking forward to seeing how Leverkusen competes with another great team in the Champions League this season.

The Champions League is not a reason they lost their match against Leipzig, they lost because Leipzig was better. Leverkusen didn't play badly, but Leipzig was just better.
For the Champions League, the tough fixtures they'll have are against Liverpool, Inter, and Milan. They might get some points from those matches and also get a lot of points from the other matches so there's no need for them to panic. I don't think anybody is underrating them, I wouldn't.

Even if they did not improve more on this season they should have at least maintain the performance they had last season but on the contrary they have drop so low, actually if they did not qualify for the champions League next season there fans will be very disappointed in them because it shows that there performance is not stable.

Milan's main weakness is their defense. And I don't think they'll improve their defense any time soon. AC Milan have dropped points in all three of their matches due to poor defence. The team conceded 6 goals in 3 matches and managed to score 5 goals. Another important point is that Milan's opponents were not very strong in these three matches. Even so, Milan conceded 6 goals.

Milan's opponents in the Champions League, Liverpool, are very strong. And Liverpool have plenty of talented players in their midfield and forward lineup. The players are also in good form now. Liverpool will not find it difficult to break down Milan's weak defence. For these reasons I think Milan have no chance of winning against Liverpool. However, football is always unpredictable. Favorite teams are not always able to win. But I would say it is unlikely to happen in this match.

You are correct, according to H2H Liverpool has a good record against AC Milan, in their last seven meetings in all competitions, AC Milan has only won one of the games, while Liverpool has won the remaining six, so compared to the current performance of both teams, AC Milan is not in the best form, their performance has been so poor since the start of the season, they failed to win any of their last three games, drew two, and lost one. Liverpool, on the other hand, has won their previous three league games with a clean sheet, despite the fact that every club takes their Champions League games seriously, Liverpool remains the favorite to win.

I believe we should not underestimate Leverkusen's ability against any team this season, probable they don't want any of their main players to be injured before the Champions League games, which is why they don't want to put a lot of pressure on the Bundesliga title this season after losing to Leipzig in their last game, but I'm looking forward to seeing how Leverkusen competes with another great team in the Champions League this season.

So 1st out of 8 matchdays will take place between Tue 17th Sep and Thu 19th Sep.
We'll see a total of 18 games, so plenty to choose from. The biggest one is probably Man City Vs Inter in Manchester. The champions of England and last year Champion's League finalists against the champions of Italy who almost made it to the UCL quarter finals (lost to Atletico Madrid on penalties).
Liverpool Vs Milan also sounds interesting, but Milan does not impress with their league games, with only 2 points earned in the first 3 Serie A games. Haven't checked the odds for this one yet but expect Liverpool to be a big favourite.

The match between Manchester City and Inter Milan is going to be a different ball game compared to what we saw the last time they met in the Champions league final. I don't expect Manchester City to lose that game. Moreover it is very rare for Manchester City under Pep Guardiola to lose first match of the season. The final was a bit tough because Manchester City were being careful enough to avoid mistakes that might cost them the title back then. Having lost the previous final to Chelsea the pressure was high for Manchester City to win the only trophy that they were lacking. But now Manchester City are playing without any pressure when it comes to winning the Champions league. Inter Milan are going to fight for a win but to me Manchester City are the favourite to take the three points. With the way they have started the season, it will take something extraordinary for inter Milan to stop Manchester City.

We can definitely see that UCL is harder than any other league, that has to be the most important part and this is why it gets so much viewership and so much money to everyone.

Normally in other leagues those big teams do get that money, like whoever finishes at the top five places and such, but in UCL everyone gets a lot, I think every team in group stages already gets like 20 million, in most leagues that's the money for the winner except a few, and only the big teams get that much in big leagues, when you go further you make more money than any other league.

So, this is why UCL is harder, because the reward is higher as well, teams like Dortmund reaching finals even for once means that they have enough money to get so many great players like they did this year. This is why every team puts the biggest emphasis on UCL, if you have a chance to rest a player for one game and play another, you rest him during the league and play him at UCL game without a doubt.

UCL league is the best league in football and any team that wins it knows what they went through before winning, real Madrid won the 15 Champions League and knew what they felt before winning the trophy, they played against big teams and worked hard to make sure they win the game. I like how the way the new UCL table looks, this season Champion League is going to be tough because there are many big teams in the league this season and there will be many challenges in the league.

Some big teams that will not be worried about the league are Real Madrid, Manchester City, Barcelona, Bayern Munich and other big teams that know how to play the league, bay Leverkusen is playing in the champion league this season and I don't think they can defeat some big team's because Leipzig has defeated them in Bundesliga league and that shows that they can't play like the way they did last season.
