Today we will have the game Benfica vs PSG. How will your bets be?

We know that PSG has a fantastic team and is much better than Benfica, so they have all the conditions to win this game.
Benfica, on the other hand, has had good performances in the Champions League games, and even managed to beat Juventus. Can they surprise PSG?

I also wonder after checking the betting market  PSG win 1.75 is this normal? we know Benfica play without defeat + Home team
But are they overconfident against PSG  Huh based on the betting market the bookie predicts PSG won by no more than 1 goal
I will check other bets for example Both teams to score, I was inspired when PSG conceded against Maccabi.

Honestly I think Club Brugge is the most surprise team in the Champions league so far. They are in a group of death, but easily top of the group with 3 won out of 3 games, and also scored 7 goals, 0 conceded. They’ve been outstanding in the UCL this season. Amazing achievement for such a club, especially considering the oppositions they’ve faced. If they keep performing this way, I don’t see why they won’t qualify for the next round.

I wouldn't go so far as to say that it is a group of death... Brugge is doing an amazing job, but that also has to do with the other clubs performing badly. Atletico is far from the team they once used to be. Leverkusen can't be taken too seriously right now and they also beat Atletico in the last group stage game.

And Porto is also quite doable for a team like Brugge. No doubt that it is still a surprise in the sense that nobody would have expected them to sit at 7:0 goals and 9 points after three games, but I would still have considered Brugge to be the potential winner in all of the three games. Atletico lacks consistency so hard, Leverkusen is totally out of shape and Porto is a reasonably strong team, but can also be beaten in a good game.

If Brugge now manages to get one more point, I would say they'll qualify for the next round. A lot needs to go wrong such that they end up as third.

Ajax and Liverpool have already scored goals in their matches, I think that the Rangers did not have high hopes of winning before the match, but Napoli probably counted on points, let's see what they can do. And while I'm writing, Napoli is already leveling the score, this is an important goal for Napoli. Bayer scores Porto, this is unexpected, I thought that Porto would be able to keep his net dry, but I already see that the VAR canceled the goal.
I am quite upset in my favorite team, Ajax, who played so poorly tonight against an out-of-form Napoli club. Somewhere in Ajax, something is awry. I'm totally at a loss for words. Napoli wasn't flawless tonight, but Ajax made Napoli perfect as they behaved like a village team. Tonight, Ajax performed utterly below average; there was zero pushing. I've never witnessed a performance quite so tragic.

It's football, I didn't expect Napoli to humiliate Ajax in the way but Napoli did the thing is that I didn't get to watch the match I would have seen what's wrong with the team or tactics of the coach. Ajax hasn't been themselves now for games now they have lost game's I expected them to win.
Liverpool are not what they use to be again, scoring so early and couldn't force in more goals into Rangers post, they dictated that game very but they should have scored more imop good one they won by the way.

Ajax really played well just that Napoli has more potential squads than Ajax that made them to experienced the defeat,
Behind a good Ajax game, of course, the Napoli team is more superior in comparison to Ajax, and it can be confirmed that this is one of the reasons for the defeat experienced by Ajax, the changes and improvements that Napoli have of course will have great potential for victory from Naples.

and Ajax coach need to work on their defense because they easily get weak at the end of the match.
And this is the main priority and the first observation after the match, looking at the performance and shortcomings in the team, in this case the Ajax coach must be more effective in implementing the defense of his team.

and they will keep the winning going until they win the title to make their fans happy
For now it looks like they will be able to achieve it with the performance of Team Napoli which is much improved maybe they will be able to achieve it and it will make the fans and supporters smile with joy, but there will be many obstacles that they have to face in the future because they will compete with the team categorized in the best teams this season.

I still can’t believe how Barcelona lost the match against inter with over than 72% possession, inter milan had few chances only to score and many of them were not that dangerous but maintained that one goal till the end and now they are ahead of barcelona with difference of 3 points, but for the return game in camp nou stadium things will be different and I’m betting all my luck for the 3 points of the game to stay at home, we won’t see a beautiful champions league without barcelona

What a bad luck from Barcelona, dominated the game almost during the whole match but failed to create some great goal chances. Dominated ball possession with such big percentage but created 2 shots on goal only is unbelievable. It proves that Inter with less ball possession were more effective to maximize their chance. Barcelona needs to win at least 2 of the 3 remaining matches in order to keep the chance to go to the PlayOff stage. The chance will be the 2nd leg between them against Inter and Victoria Plazen. Next match against Inter can be very crucial match to Barcelona, if they lose it again then we can say that their chance is so low unless they can beat Plazen and Bayern in the last 2 matches.

Inter have done a great job so far and ended the first half 1-0 ahead thanks to Calhanoglu's nice goal. Actually Barcelona had more dangerous attacks than them and they were in control of the match in terms of ball possession. However Inter showed us that this wasn't the most important thing in football.

However I still don't think that Inter can win here. Barcelona's performance wasn't so different from them as I said. I expect them to improve their performance even more in the second half and equalize the score as soon as possible. But it looks like they have a really difficult job as for getting a win. Inter are surprising us a lot after their poor defensive performance against Roma the last time. I wasn't expecting them to stay this much solid. Maybe Inzaghi found out a way to be more prepared for the Champions League.
Well, it's quite depressing to watch tonight's "difficult game" turn out to be a cakewalk because I was hoping for a goal or a draw. Imagine Barcelona pleading for a penalty in order to score. Xavi needs to curb his sentimentality I am aware that he is striving to ensure the Spanish players' world cup readiness in his team selection. Barça was a mediocre team tonight, and they ought to be prepared for the match on Thursday as a result of his approach ( Europa league)

How isn't this handball? Even Barcelona's disallowed goal due to same reason was very debatable. Because that one and the situation in the picture are the same actually. They should have assessed these incidents equally then there wouldn't be any problem. But Barcelona couldn't get a penalty after this incident even though they checked VAR. If VAR won't handle the situation properly then why is there a system like this?

When it comes to the match, Dembele was a big disappointment. We all know how selfish he is. At least he could have scored one goal not to draw a bad attention to himself. Especially on one attempt he was so close to scoring but the ball hit the goal post. Congrats to Inter! They've got a huge win and this is very important for them to consolidate their position. Barcelona are still having problems in the Champions League and they need to win their next match against Inter in Camp Nou this time.

A friend of mine confidently assured me that Barca would win against all odds because of technical abilities of the coach, Xavi. After all 72% of ball possession and few cards, Barcelona only did what they could by playing defensively.  I, however, believe that they have the power to recover against Inter Milan and Bayern Munich in the second leg. The league would be incomplete without Barca in the final stages playing against other emergent clubs from their varying groups. Their next game I hope would be more of offensive, rather than defensive.
Technical abilities and also strategy will probably result differently in the match. Because, the most will depend on the live match on the field, how every player can optimize their chance, and how the coach can see the match and give evaluation. Probably, Barcelona is better and more favorite, but in fact, during the match, Inter could play much better, moreover in term of their offense and chance taking. That is why Football in sometimes very difficult to predict because the result is sometimes very unpredictable. In UCL, Barcelona's position is very challenging and crucial. In the next match, Barcelona will fight against Inter, this will decide whether Barcelona can be qualified or not. If Barcelona losses again, it means that the chance is very small, and probably will not be qualified. Well, see how the result will be.

Bayern is back on track and we can see clearly that they can accelerate whenever they want and they seems to be more focused on UCL than Bundesliga right now.
Bayern Munich just played spectacular and fantastic football tonight. They have just set a good record for the longest unbeaten club in Championship League group matches. Beating Viktoria Plzen didn't come as a surprise since they were able to win against Barcelona 2-0 last month. Today's win has made them top Group C. Let them use this energy of winning their group stage match to the finals. Not to be kicked out at the quarter-finals of the Champions League

Frankfurt 20:00 Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham continue their poor run of form from the arsenal game,  with very few attempts on goal. At this point and with arsenal's current form, i feel we would have been better choice for this UCL than Tottenham. At the level they are playing, the europa would have been better for them.

For Barcelona, lewandoski will be under pressure now especially since he hasn't scored in his last two champions league games. A product of the international break maybe.

With this win , Inter can still hope for 2nd place but they had some luck today against Barca as this game should have been at least a draw but hey , that's why we love football.

Bayern is back on track and we can see clearly that they can accelerate whenever they want and they seems to be more focused on UCL than Bundesliga right now.

Leverkusen...I had high hopes for them to get points today but they let me down and lost my only ticket...

I will blame O. Dembele for wasting Barcelona opportunities in the first half. Lots of inaccurate passes and unnecessary display of skills, i wondered why Xavi tolerated that. Lewandoski was marked so aggressively that he couldn't see enough chance to make attempts.

Inter locked up their defense after Calhanoglu's leading goal. Barcelona had the possession no doubt but they couldn't do much with it because the defense line was locked down. Xavi needs to find an alternative formation in preparation for the second leg else Inter might decide to go all defensive at Camp Nou

I still don't get how Liverpool can perform so well in the champions league but still struggle in the league. Agreed, Rangers are not so strong in their performance since the champions league started, but I didn't expect such a loss..

 In Ajax case, it's amusing that a team who were in the lead with a goal as early as 9mins could lose control like that goes to show unpredictable football can be. At least got to retain their spot at the top of the group with a comfortable three points.

^  I wouldn't say 'they couldn't win here' unless it's a club like the Rangers or Viktoria Plzen.  Lol.  They format of the UCL is more of a tourney format.  Once a club goes through the group stages and on to the KO stages, they def have a chance of winning it.  And it's Inter.  A club that knows how to win and with somewhat of a history.

And showing that they could go against a better club in Barca and win the match?  That's a good sign.  It shows heart and show what their mentality is like.

Inter won 1-0 vs Barcelona although being less threatening. In the second half, Barcelona was more powerful and almost scoring but they failed. There is a disallowed goal and penalty by VAR. Don't want to comment on them since the actual VAR system is a headache..
To resume: Inter won't be as lucky next week as in today's game so better to improve and let Barcelona control less the ball.
In the other games, Brugge winning with 2 goals to 0 vs ATM was interesting along with 6-1 between Napoli - Ajax. Even Marseille 4-1 Sporting was an interesting result.
Tomorrow Chelsea - Milan is the best game and I expect Milan to win regarding the bad shape of Chelsea right now, although odds are in favour of Chelsea since playing home?
