AC Milan are gradually finding their way back into the champions league after a comfortable 3-1 win against club Brugge at the San Siro with pulisic and Reijnders scoring all 3 for the Italian side tonight. Milan got off to a very poor start in the uefa champions league this season after losing twice to both Liverpool and Bayer Leverkusen respectively and only got to record their first win in the competition this season. For me, I think it is an important win for the coach because it is going to go along way to help his employers to at least have some confidence in his ability to lead the club and also boost the morale of the players to keep getting such results and probably make it to the next round of the champions league.

While it might be ironic they lost against Liverpool and Bayern Leverkusen, it was relatively expected. Today game they met someone who they where actually better than and did well, it's an important and motivational win for them and it's good to see Christian Pulisic coming back to his very again, good job for them.

It is more than a motivational win for the Italian side, this win has presented them with an opportunity to reclaim their spot incase of a possible slip of any team that may later decline or start losing games in the second round, this happens a lot, some teams perform very well in the first round and sometimes begin to find it difficult in the second round, so I think Milan are on the right track and must stay focus because any loss from them would be very detrimental to their pursuit for a place in the knockout stages.

It has become a risk because Madrid played very badly, not having clarity about the attacks that were built. Ancelotti time is over and that's a fact, with a back line game that has a lot of gaps, Dortmund really understands Madrid weaknesses. Dortmund is able to play freely and the breakthrough crosses are very difficult to intercept by Madrid defenders. If it's like this, do you still not want to recruit a new defender? Without Carvajal the defense is indeed very porous. Modric can't do more if he doesn't have a suitable partner in the midfield position. Bellingham, Rodrygo, Mbappe, and Vini are unclear in which direction they are dribbling the ball.

2 gol could increase in the second half if Madrid is unable to change. 2 shots all to the goalpost, usually that's a sign of bad luck.

Monaco has been very impressive in the Uefa champions League this season and today they are at it again, they are currently leading by three goals to one and are outplaying their opponents. I see so much prospects in this team and they would definitely go far.

Ac Milan may be winning but still they aren't fully convincing, they are playing a lower team with a red card and still can't put day light between them. I believe they will win but I believe they would have it hard.

Milan finally got their first win in the Champions League, this match was easy for them, they played the whole second half with a man advantage and they were in full control of the game, but the first half wasn't that easy and Brugge also attacked a lot. Juventus started this match strangely, they gave the ball to Stuttgart and hardly attacked, I know that Motta likes a cautious game and pays a lot of attention to defense, but for Juventus this is normal, they were the same under Alegre.

Monaco did a great job today, those who picked their match to play about over 2.5 goals would be very happy with the score it, it did not only come out 2.5 goals but over 5.5, that's a very big odd and I wonder who would've been able to pick such risky odd and won. Well, I think Monaco have been in a very good form this season, they really mean business because they're not only doing great in the Champions League alone but in the Ligue 1 as well, Monaco would go far in the Champions League tournament but I'm yet to see how they'll play against tougher teams so I won't fully conclude. However, about AcMilan, they did well because this win would atleast boost them to do better in their next match 3-1 is a big victory in football but it was the red card given to their opponents that helped them, it made the second half more easier for them to win at ease. Stuttgart lately are proving to be very stubborn so I think this would be a little tougher for Juventus cause Stuttgart is dominating the game more and got more chances to goal than then in this first half, they have to make sure Stuttgart doesn't score before then else it would become more tougher to equalize and win.

In the other match, Monaco is leading 1-0 and this was expected. It was a perfect strike by Takumi Minamino. I don't think Crvena Zvezda can equalize it anytime soon. 1.45 odds for Monaco seems reasonable enough.

The first half just ended and Monaco is leading 2-1. After they took the lead in the 20th minute through the Japanese player Takumi Minamino. They lost the lead seven minutes later when Crvena Zvezda's Senegalese forward Cherif Ndiaye levelled the score. Both teams kept pressuring each other with dangerous attacking runs until the visitor's failure to clear the ball in their box gave Breel Embolo, the Switzerland player, a clear chance to put the French side ahead. The game is open to both teams based on their performance. Let's see the strategy both coaches will come up with, but I still expect them to keep attacking.

At the end of the match, Monaco won by 5 goals. The French made a great start to this year. They are performing exceptionally well in the league and the Champions League. They had 71% of the ball until the end of the match and wiped out Red Star from the field. Monaco became the super team of this year. They also took the lead from PSG in the French league and if this continues, they will have made a great start to this year.

Today we have 9 games in 3rd round of the Champions League mostly games are going to be one-sided because we have huge difference of quality between few teams which are hosting weak teams but still things have never been easy in Champions League from these 9 games we have few interesting with Real Madrid vs Borussia Dortmund is also one of them.

I think there are many interesting games in tonight's fixtures in the champions league and I wouldn't say that it's mostly the weak teams playing against the stronger sides either because this is an elite competition and it takes clubs who have given some good performance in their domestic league to qualify for the champions league. We probably could witness a few upturns in tonight results with some big clubs losing points cause anything is possible in football.

Monaco as been good all this years and they still maintain that lane, I saw what I expected, Monaco hosted red star to get their three points easily because red star doesn't stand a chance to defeat Monaco, Monaco start this league with the impression of winning the league, immediately the knock down Barcelona in their first champions league match I started noticing them, that winning alone cut attention of many because Barcelona are full of potential good players and they managed to defeat them, what a wonderful achievement.

Ac Milan have been the choosing one since when they started playing against Brugge, this alone cleared my doubts despite Ac Milan are not doing fine now I still have much confidence in them against Brugge, club Brugge are just been luck to find themselves in the league if not they wouldn't have show up if they are playing the same league with Ac Milan.

If they win Shakhtar Donetsk tonight it will give Arsenal more confidence to face Liverpool in there next premier league game on weekends.

With Arsenal line up against Shakhtar Donetsk I believe victory will be sure for them at Emirates stadium.

Almost all of us believe that Arsenal will win today even the bookies predicted Arsenal won by 2-3 goals we can see it based on the handicap offered -2.5 but yeah it's just bookies prediction but at least the confidence in Arsenal is quite high. Within 20 minutes the first half Arsenal could control the match, but there wasn't much attempt in attack and we are still waiting for Arsenal to score one goal in the first half, it will improve their performance in the second half.

So far there are no goals in 7 matches running but it seems that Real Madrid and PSG will do it first because based on statistics the two teams play aggressively and continue to attack yeah at least 5-6 shot efforts. I agree if almost all home teams have a chance to win today and 2 previous home teams have also won the match.

Real Madrid vs Dortmund today is going to be a much more interesting match, although we can count Real Madrid as favorites to win this match. However, Dortmund are currently in a good position in the Champions League and their performance is much better, compared to the Bundesliga, Dortmund's performance in the UCL is much better. Anyway, I think today's match will be a great game between the two teams, although Dortmund are currently much ahead of Real Madrid in the standings. But looking at the betting odds today, we can confirm that Real Madrid will win this match, although Real Madrid currently has a few players injured so the team needs to fill that position. But I have confidence that Real Madrid will win this match, and they will take a good position in the points table.

Today we have 9 games in 3rd round of the Champions League mostly games are going to be one-sided because we have huge difference of quality between few teams which are hosting weak teams but still things have never been easy in Champions League from these 9 games we have few interesting with Real Madrid vs Borussia Dortmund is also one of them.

In this season we have Borussia Dortmund not strong enough like we have them in last season even they have good start of their Champions League with 6 points and 10 goals which are most in 2 games but now first time they are facing strong opponent which will give them challenge things could be not easy for both clubs, but Real Madrid is good enough at home, and they are looking for fight back after having defeat in last game against Lille in France, so this could be surely interesting match, but Real Madrid can manage win without any big hurdle.

There are some good matches in the Champions League today and to be honest I'm starting to like the new format more and more because every goal and every point counts in this format. In the most anticipated match of the night, I think Real Madrid will win comfortably against Dortmund and the odds of 1.53 are really good.

It is very natural that many observers and bookies favor Real Madrid in this match, besides playing at home, Real Madrid certainly does not want to lose points again considering that in the previous match they lost points to Lille. Indeed, Dortmund in the UCL league this season performed very perfectly, in fact they were much better when playing in the Champions League than in the Domestic League, but considering they are facing Real Madrid, I think they are not able to maintain their positive trend.

We can see from the meeting of the two teams that Real Madrid always excels when playing against Dortmund, even in last season's final they could not do much when facing Real Madrid. I will bet on Real Madrid's victory in this match, looking at the starting line-up, Real Madrid's squad is very good, only Carvajal is absent due to injury.

This Real Madrid game at home vs Dortmund, is a match that I avoided placing bet on, I don't know how the heck the odds got way up this much, up to 5.90 odds on Dortmund to win Real Madrid, when their performance in the previous champions league games has been quite interesting with good scoreline, though historical records of H2H meetings shows Real Madrid is a better side ,5 wins vs Dortmund 3, and 5 draws, not really a high margin difference.

The match between Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund promises to be a thrilling encounter. While Real Madrid is the favorite, their current form raises questions. They've been dropping points both in La Liga and the Champions League, with three consecutive draws showing signs of inconsistency. Borussia Dortmund, on the other hand, has been unpredictable in the Bundesliga, but they've impressed in the Champions League, demolishing Celtic and Club Brugge.

My prediction: both teams are likely to score, but the outcome remains uncertain.

Arsenal vs Shakhtar Donetsk

Arsenal lineup (4-3-3): Raya; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Calafiori; Rice, Jorginho, Havertz; Sterling, Jesus, Martinelli.

Shakhtar Donetsk lineup (3-4-2-1): Riznyk; Bondar, Ghram, Matviyenko; Gomes, Kryskiv, Stepanenko, Henrique; Bondarenko, Sudakov; Sikan.

Arsenal are back again to champions league after beaten PSG 2-0 and now they are back to face Shakhtar Donetsk, this both teams last played against each other in 2010 champions league and unfortunately Arsenal was defeated by 2-1 but it was an away game, this night arsenal will hold the game at Emirates Stadium, Arsenal won their last champions league match against PSG while Shakhtar Donetsk faced a defeat against Atalanta 3-0 in their own homes, it was a disappointing moment for them and they will like to come back against arsenal which I don't expect that to happen despite arsenal faced a painful defeat against Bournemouth in their last home league, let see how the two will go tonight.

Arsenal defeat against Bournemouth in their premier league match came as a shoke to them I believe Saliba red card in that game affected Arsenal in that match but I believe they will bounce back to win Shakhtar Donetsk in tonight UEFA Champions league match but won't be easy.
If they win Shakhtar Donetsk tonight it will give Arsenal more confidence to face Liverpool in there next premier league game on weekends.

With Arsenal line up against Shakhtar Donetsk I believe victory will be sure for them at Emirates stadium.

Monaco performance today was impressive as they trash crvena zvezda 5-1 as they dominated the whole game both in ball possession and goal attempt.
AC Milan also show a great performance by winning the Belgium Giant 3-1 though it seems difficult for AC Milan to win if not for Onyedika red card in the first half of the game.
Congratulations to both Monaco and AC Milan as they came out victorious in their UEFA Champions league matches today.

The biggest match of the night is Real Madrid - B.Dortmund. I think it will be an enjoyable match, unfortunately we will only be able to watch one match since all the matches are at the same time.

Juventus - Stuttgart is another important match for me. There is a good betting odd for Juventus and I want to evaluate it. I hope I will be lucky this time.

After the loss to Bayern Munich by Stuttgart in their last match, I may not have too much confidence in them to be able to beat a big team like Juventus who have shown to be well positioned this season and doing greater than them so far this season. The more important match is the Real Madrid vs Dortmund match. Both teams are looking very much fit for this match and they’ll both be given themselves a very tough time today while playing. Dortmund wouldn’t want a repeat of defeat they got from them when they met last season, so this match will be interesting if they really want to win and work towards achieving it.

Quote from: mamesso on October 22, 2024, 08:23:52 AM

This match is very crucial for PSG after previously getting a minor result at Arsenal's headquarters, PSG must take advantage of the home game to get a win because it will determine their journey to the next round. Even though on paper PSG is more favored in this match, they must remain focused and give their best performance so that they can appear more solid and always take advantage of every opportunity to achieve victory. Luis Enrique's team must be able to appear confident, full of motivation and must be optimistic in order to get three points, a win will allow them to improve their position in the standings.

PSG do not need to be too focused on them been the better team in this match but they should focus more on how they’re going to get a win in this game. PSV may look a smaller opponent to them and the bookmakers already favouring them on the odds, but they shouldn’t get too confidence and not put the required effort in this game that they ought to have put to make things workout for them in this game. We have less than one hour to the start of the game and the lineups are all out already. With the starting eleven for PSG, they look very well to get a swift win in this game.

The French side Monaco looks very good and will likely to get their complete three points because the second half has begun and they are looking very serious with their games, they keep dominating and looks like they will score more goals. They didn’t relax because of one goal lead, their attackers are very hungry for goals and I am hoping they can get more goals anytime soon because they creating chances and have more short in goal than the Red Star team.

It’s already 3-1. Monaco has started doing what we expected from them from the beginning of the game and they are now proving to be a very good team that is ready to qualify to the next round of the competition.

If the game was going to be played in Germany then I could say Dortmund were advantageous. But I don't think they have a chance at Santiago Bernabeu.If there wasn't El Clasico at the weekend, I would bet on Real Madrid to win by landslide.But I think Ancelotti won't tire his players much by thinking of the game at the weekend.

Maybe yes, but it doesn't have a big impact even though the match is held in Germany. however, as we know, Madrid is a team that has a champion mentality regardless of whether they play away or at home. on the contrary, this match is a big test for Nuri Sahin and the Borussia Dortmund players. can they match Madrid's game, or at least the match ends in a draw. if so, Dortmund remains safe in the temporary group stage standings. Dortmund still has teams that can be said to be strong opponents, Leipzig and Barcelona. however, that does not mean that the other teams are easy opponents, therefore this match is important to at least get one point so that they remain safe. in the home team's camp, after playing against Dortmund they will host Barcelona in the Domestic League in the context of the El Clasico Match. Madrid is far superior in this match, especially playing in front of their own supporters at the Santiago Bernabeu. they must get full points, if not, that means in every remaining match Madrid must appear all out to get full points. let's just wait, maybe there will be a surprise.

I would guess Dortmund still has a smaller chance to win, because they are doing great at UCL there is no doubt, we have seen them went to finals and this would be like a revenge.

And the main reason why I believe they have any chance is because Real Madrid has been doing not so great and at the same time we are seeing them have a game against Barcelona, so they will put all their efforts into that game instead of this one. So if they are tired, fatigue could cause them to have a much worse game, and since they already looked not so great this season so far, I think they could look even worse on this game.

However, the main reason why I believe favourites and I mean heavy favourites, is Real Madrid, because they lost to Lille already, so they have no chance to just have another loss. If Real Madrid wants to finish near the top of the group stages, which they should for easier next steps, then they have to win this game so they are going to take this game very seriously. I understand Dortmund isn't some small league terrible team, so they are going to of course push Real Madrid to limits and have a close game, but Real has to find a way to get this game and get that three points as well.
