Lyon vs Benfica predictions - The match will start tonight Lyon as the host will face Benfica, in fact I do not like both teams but I see the points are 1 point different from Benfica, and I think this match will be so exciting from both teams must get maximum points tonight later, so what do you think about this ??
these two teams are unlucky to be in the bottom of Group G with only 1 Point difference, i spot benefica points it seem have a very small chance in this group, and vice versa for lyon must beat Benfica to be hopeful and if wants to continue to compete at UCL. both teams are in a very bad position, just hoping for luck from the other match in Group G.

Group E
If Napoli wins, they will be guaranteed to reach next round.
If Napoli wins the game against Red Bull Salzburg, they will likely advance to next round. But that's not 100%.
If Genk wins Liverpool the table will be like this.
Napoli 10, Liverpool 6, Genk 4,  Red Bull Salzburg 1
Genk will have chance to qualify for the next round.

I think that today finally some good games with Dortmund vs Inter as the most interesting to watch on Tv as it decides which team will go further from the two.

However I think Chelsea,Napoli,Liverpool and Barcelona to win looks like a good parlay to win some easy money,in fact if I remove Chelsea I think the other three are easy wins and I don’t know why Napoli at home is quoted 1.8 against Salzburg.

Dortmund vs. Inter. This is one of the key matches tomorrow. Inter has just won last game but this one will play in Germany.

Inter won the last match in Milan for 2-0
Tomorrow even they can lose with one goal of difference and hope to finish the group stage with the same points of Dortmund.

If they will lose and they manage to get the same points at the end they will go to the final phase.
If they will lose with -3 goals than they will basically out from the champions IMHO.

I thought the same but actually it is not the case here (if it isn´t the missing 2nd coffee that is playing tricks on me):

Right now both team do have 4 points.

If Dortmung wins (even 1:0) would bring them 3 points clear on Inter.

If both Inter and BVB will win their matches against Slavia and lose to Barca (for example) Dortmund will finish the group with 3 points ahead of Inter.

Should be correct that way?!

They sold him almost 2 years ago and still suffering without him.  
Benzema is only real replacement for Ronaldo but he is not on the same level with Ronaldo.
Hazard still need time to adapt to new club and also it's obvious that Real have many players who are not on the top level any more,  like Modric,  Marcelo etc.
The current Madrid players I think are very difficult they can survive in the Champions League, After Ronaldo's departure, Madrid seemed lose his fangs to chew. They are so blunt in front of goal. Zinedine Zidane is so difficult to find the right formation.

PSG are probably a better team than Real & this was shown in the first game between them. The thing is when Real are desperate, backs up against the wall etc they can always get a result. Their squad is full of winners with amazing CV’s, littered with trophies.

I think Real will get a result in this game tbh.
I still do believe Real Madrid can come through thou they have lost a bit of confidence and that fear factor they had in Europe. It will take alot of work to get back to where they were in Europe 2-3 years back.

The players are brilliant, but they don't play as a team. I witnessed that in the recent 0-0 draw against Real Betis.

They’re missing a true talisman, a guy who can pull them out of the shit. That man was Ronaldo who obviously isn’t there any more. His replacement is Hazard who is yet to have anywhere near the same impact.

@muslo thank you for that video haha. Even Cech seemed a bit smiling;)

You know to be honest, I can't wait for this match to start tonight. Barca fan here, so you can imagine how painful it has been in the past few seasons, and then the way we are doing in La Liga. Still top but we allowed Real to be above us so I fear our manager will follow Niko Kovac out into free agent world:P

No one doubts Liverpool today, almost everyone agrees Liverpool will win but I'm a little doubtful that they will win with a big score because winning by 1 or 2  goals then still get 3 points. My prediction liverpool will play more cautiously to avoid injury to players because their position is safe in the group.
In other matches, I also predicted Barcelona would win big vs Slavia Praha even though they had just lost yesterday vs Levante.

Of course Barcelona will win this match to add 3 points and it is safe to advance to the next round, Messi and friends will try as much as possible in this match, guess my score 3-0

Plenty of interesting games tomorrow, Chelsea - Ajax and Borussia - Inter probably will be best, not sure which one to watch.

Chelsea vs Ajax - both teams are in good form currently. Abrahams and Pulisic are pulling off scores for the Blues for quite some matches now. Batshuayi is also playing good. While on other hand , Ajax are also attacking pretty well. Considering the attacking line of both I am gonna go for BTTS for today's match.

I think Chelsea vs Ajax will be better one to watch as Ajax faces defeat at their home against Chelsea last month and surely will be looking for revenge now.

There is no doubt that Liverpool can win big in this match. We know that they are on fire, especially playing at home, of course they will score a lot of goals. In other matches, I also predicted Barcelona would win big vs Slavia Praha even though they had just lost yesterday vs Levante.

Situation in G group is very interesting, all 4 teams are close to each other and everything still can happen there. There will be Zenit - Leipzig and Lyon - Benfica matches next, I'm not going to risk to predict something here.
In H group it's also hot, I expect Valencia to win over Lille, because IMO, they are weakest team in group.

I can't forget Slavia Praha chairman's react when UCL Draw : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjTkkOHy8dg    Grin Grin Grin
Despite reaction, Slavia are playing very good football against such strong opponents. I wouldn't write-off them already, they still can fight for Europa league spot.

key matches will playing tomorrow group E,F,G and H.

important notes for tomorrow;

Group E
If Napoli wins, they will be guaranteed to reach next round.
Nothing will be change for Genk tomorrow against Liverpool. Because their only chance may will be against Salzburg next match.
Liverpool have to win if they want to take leadership from Napoli against Genk.

Group F

If Barca win against S.Prag, they will be guaranteed to reach next round. And it also means good bye S.Prag to CL and may to EL.
Dortmund vs. Inter. This is one of the key matches tomorrow. Inter has just won last game but this one will play in Germany.

Group G
An interesting group here;
It seems everything possible in this group.
Time to avenge the first match for Zenit. And they have to do it, if they want to continue. same as Lyon.
I can't predict anything in this group. But Zenit and Lyon have advantage because they will play in their field.

Group H
It is a key match for Lille tomorrow. If Valencia win, CL dreams will be over for Lille.
Another key match will be played in England tomorrow. Chelsea vs. Ajax ( I think this match should be watch)

Chelsea Ajax will be a great match. The first match was also great. Let's hope that Ajax wins ;-)

I'm waiting for the match Dortmund vs Inter Milan will Dortmund be able to win this match at home? Having 4 points is the same as Inter Milan so both must compete as much as they can to win, adding 3 points will be safe to advance to the last 16.

They lost to Inter Milan on their first game and I don't see a different result even on their home. What I have seen in the previous match is even though Dortmund maintained the possession of the ball most of the game they failed to produce a goal and yet Inter Milan has maximize their attacks well and delivered two goals during that match. Without them changing anything on their defense and how they bring the ball down I don't see them winning the second game at all.
I can't see both inter Milan and Dortmund will come out as a winner , the draw is likely happened. Both teams would try to win to maintain the current position at least and usually a match with the tension like that won't have much goal scored. Under goals would become my choice rather than the moneyline , under 2.5 goals and half time draw .

FYI the last time Dortmund play against inter Milan... their key players such as Marco Reus, Paco Alcacer and Marcel Schmelzer were left out! No wonder they struggling to score while have a possession ball.
They put Julian Brandt as a striker which he is not. And this time they still without those key players plus burki on goalkeeper is still out.

Why Manchester City always wins in champions league matches, you can see the picture below:



So do not be surprised if Man City always wins in every game, they are in an easy group in my opinion. We will see later in the next round, it will prove.
Manchester City can play well against the other top teams but it is a fact that it belongs in a weak group. Put Manchester City in a tough group like B where Bayern Munich or Tottenheim or in the toughest group F where Barca, Inter Milan and Dortmund are all together.     
like the previous season, Manchester City always get a group with an easy team, I think this season will also be the same as the previous season, Manchester City will break at the quarter finals when meeting a big team.
Manchester City usually get eliminated when they play any good team in Quarter final I believed this is a jinx they are yet to break I hope Coach Guordiola get it right this season having been narrowly eliminated last season by tottemham my prediction is that that they will go as far as semi- final in this year UCL all things equal and having injury free season.

Pep Guardiola has full confidence to advance to the semi-finals in terms of the game Manchester City has shown the best in the EPL and at UCL, this season is Pep Guardiola's target to win the EPL and UCL trophy which is very prestigious.

I think that Psg will win easily against any team of the group in their home field.They may be not in their best form but surely they are able to win.Just remember the game against Real Madrid where they won easily and produced a great football.I think it will be difficult for any other team of the group to get a different result in Stad de France.

PSG are probably a better team than Real & this was shown in the first game between them. The thing is when Real are desperate, backs up against the wall etc they can always get a result. Their squad is full of winners with amazing CV’s, littered with trophies.

I think Real will get a result in this game tbh.

I don't think that PSG is a better team than Real Madrid.
They are just in a better shape. I think that this comes from the fact that PSG do not have difficult games in the French League as it is an easier league compared to the spanish La Liga.
