Real-Madrid must be with more open tactics, they have to score  as many goals as possible because PSG will not stop on the current score. both teams will try to play not carefully, but aggresive, therefore it will be very interesting battle with over 2 goals as I think.
It is possible that madrid will play open to attack in catching up with the score in the 2nd leg later, playing in front of their own supporters of course madrid no longer wants to be humiliated by PSG, so they inevitably have to chase the existing goals deficit, but PSG is currently superior I think it will also play a little defensively with maybe more counter attacks later, although it is difficult to penetrate the PSG defense but I think with Ancelotti experience in the champions league so far, of course they will be able to do their best in the 2nd leg later, but unfortunately ancelotti must lose two of his main players in the second leg due to card accumulation, losing Casemiro and Ferland Mendy is certainly a big loss for madrid at this time.
Hopefully Real Madrid can penetrate the PSG defense in the second leg and advance to the next round, the champions league is just like a Real Madrid thing we all know about that and they can maken things happen which we’ve seen before now. I am opting for PSG to advance and maybe win the champions league, they have been wanting to for a long time and they have spent a whole lot of money just to achieve that.

Of course, Real Madrid is a very good and big team, no doubt about it. I think PSG will take the Champions League cup this time because PSG has picked good players from all over the place at this time. However, Real Madrid will want them to come back anyway, so as not to be undefeated with any team. I come up with the idea of ​​easily becoming the PSG champion this season because they have all kinds of experienced players ready.

I'm not sure about which side can promote to the next round in the Atletico Madrid - Manchester United draw. But I will still be supporting Manchester United to defeat Atletico Madrid and move on in this tournament. It is obvious that they aren't going to achieve anything this season of the Premier League. They must aim to reach the best stage they can here in the Champions League. And it is in their hands too. Atletico Madrid are not a very good opponent but they have been performing nearly the same as the Manchester club. If Manchester United make a difference in the second leg, they can eliminate Atletico.

I would not be surprised at any result in this pair. Even a penalty shootout or a massive victory / defeat of one of the teams. I will be happy if United win and Ronaldo remembers that this is one of his favorite teams to replenish his scorer's account. But United have disappointed me so many times this season that I won't bet on this game and won't expect much from it.

Same here, Its very unpredictable team, therefore I can not look at any past match stats and choose a bet. I think Everything will depend on individual play-tactics, therefore very hard to anticipate.

Although that's a start, I feel it is not enough. In my opinion, all Russian football teams should be banned from participating in international competition.
That's a very drastic measure, mate. It's not like it's the Russian clubs calling shots for the Ukrainian Invasion. In fact, some Russian civilians have been protesting against the invasion. If you ban the clubs, then that means you are banning even innocent civilians from participating in the sport.

The reason for the change in venues is mostly for the safety of players, not political.

I agree, even if Russia ends up conquering the whole Ukraine that doesn't really mean that the war is going to be over, the Ukranian government is forbidding the exit of all the males that are within the range of 18 and 60 years old from the country which most likely means that there is not going to be peace on that region of the world for a very long time and it is expected that they will try to damage the infrastructure of the Russian government, and as such sending soccer players to Russia is simply too risky, but trying to ban every single Russian club from the competition is not the right call either.

Second legs are almost always more fun because they are elimination games and I am 100% sure that we are going to see all teams be a bit more offensive. Teams like City do not have to because they are easily getting to next stage anyway, maybe Liverpool won't be neither but they are not that much clear out of the water, however Inter has been not so great lately. Aside from those two, every other team will be a lot more offensive and try to score, probably score early as well.

So, we are going to see plenty of goals, either from the team that is attacking, or from a counter attack as well. It is going to be something fun but the bad thing is it is 2 games a piece, meaning we can't really watch them back to back or on different days, you need to pick one game and watch it, that is the hardest part about this stage, you need to pick a game and how do you pick one? They are all great.

How Manchester United react to today's fixture will have a say ahead of their Champions League  against Athletico Madrid.
They have the believe they can win the Champions League but that doesn't seem like it is on the pitch.
I'm closely monitoring Spanish defending Champions Athletico Madrid, to see how improved they'll come against Celta Vigo.
I don't think there will be a very big connection between Manchester United's today EPL fixture and the return leg of the champions league. It can only be true that Manchester United manager Ralf may look into his defence line and find a way to make changes against Atletico Madrid. This may be the reason he benched Harry Maguire.

Saying about Manchester United wining the Champions League, though I am a Manchester United fan but I  not optimistic. There are many better clubs in the race.

I do not think today's game will mean too much in respect to their second leg tie with Athletico Madrid, yeah of course it is good to get a winning run going, that is if they will be able to do that cause they do not face Athletico until the 15th of March, so they still have a couple of tough games on the way before that one, of which one is the Manchester derby, so i am pretty sure their mind isn't solely on Athletico.
They have the believe they can win the Champions League but that doesn't seem like it is on the pitch.
There is little or no chance for Manchester United to win the CL, sorry to United fans, but it is what it is, i am pretty sure deep down in the hearts of the players they know they are not strong enough to win the CL this season.

Agree, not betting on Manchester United for a while until they are completely stable in their form. Not for now, because we have lost quite a lot betting on Manchester United. Now maybe you can only watch Ronaldo who must always be able to get out of the opponent's closure. As his opponent often does, closing Ronaldo movement is the main thing. The Manchester United coach is now not very suitable when compared to Manchester United's performance when he was in Carrick hands.

The matchups that it is very difficult to predict the qualifier in are Atletico Madrid - Manchester United and PSG - Real Madrid now. The former is the most difficult one to be more precise. Because there is not much difference between these teams in terms of strength now and the result of the first match was 1-1. And in the other matchup, PSG are the closer team to qualify for the quarter final round as they won the first leg by 1-0. But we can't know what will happen in Santiago Bernabeu. Real Madrid are a much more different team in their home matches. PSG should watch out for a big threat.

I watched both games, and in my opinion Atletico and PSG were better teams and deserved even better results.
I agree that both matches are uncertain, but I still give a small advantage to Atletico and PSG.
There are serious problems in the relationship between coaches and players in Manchester, and it seems to me that Real's midfield can't cope with PSG's midfield.
Very exciting matches await us  Cheesy
for PSG maybe yes but I don't really like Atletico's game against Manchester United.
They didn't play well in my opinion because they just defended and couldn't play well and they shouldn't.
For the game in Leg 2, I don't think Atletico will be able to do much and even will only survive as in the first leg, but for PSG they will definitely be a little more insistent even though they are still superior to Aggregates but I don't think they will relax their attack

Although it is difficult to determine between Man United or Atletico, the fact is that the bookies are big for Atletico. This is quite 50:50 if it is equivalent to the current performance of Man United. Bet on Man United 2.05, Draw 3.25, and for Atletico Madrid offer 3.80.

Here we will prefer to draw 3.25 which can be calculated from now on if it is difficult to choose one of them.

I agree with you that PSG and Atletico Madrid should have deserved to win the first leg yesterday. But that's the home game feels unfair. Madrid in the first leg the game was not open they only defended, occasionally countering attacks. I think the second leg will be more exciting, each team will do their best, and PSG, which is full of star players, will definitely not want to waste opportunities just like that. I think PSG will come out victorious and advance to the next round, even though the score may not be big

There were 4 matches in the first leg which resulted in a draw, that's not what the team playing at home wants in the first leg. Because they will
struggle in the second leg by playing away, even though the away goal doesn't matter at the moment, at least for the team that played away
in the first leg it was a bit advantageous that they didn't lose. Although the teams that play at home in the second leg are much more
advantaged, because playing at home has greater support from fans. Besides playing at home, the morale of players is usually much higher,
because there is a motivation not to want to disappoint the supporters. Bayern, Juventus, Man United and Ajax are the 4 teams that won a draw
in the first leg. So the 4 teams that I mentioned should have a greater chance of winning in the second leg because they will play at home
in the second leg.

It's actually amazing to see the team draw the first leg at home.
Well, it can be said as positive as there did not lose the match if you are being optimistic.

But, I really think that every team should win the home match in the first leg so that they can have the advantage of playing safe in the second leg but as they did not know they will have to go for goals in the second leg and as it's going to be and have a match they are not going to be too comfortable.

Real Madrid must try hard to qualify from the last 16, because they are 1 goal behind on aggregate from Paris Saint-Germain. Paris Saint-Germain is also not a team that is easy to beat by the Real Madrid team. But I still believe that Real Madrid will be able to do that with their hard work. Yes they definitely want to repeat the history that Real Madrid did when they turned things around in the second leg.
when viewed from the game of the two teams in the first leg, PSG were very superior in all respects, both ball control and shots against the goal and from the composition of the existing players PSG was also superior to Real Madrid, after seeing the game of the two teams in the first leg I am pessimistic for Real Madrid to be able to qualify for the next round, even I predict that it is very likely that PSG can win again in the second leg later.

PSG was the superior team in the first leg against Real Madrid and they should certainly have scored more than just one goal. And let me tell you that if Real Madrid wins the second leg by 1 goal difference then the missed penalty will come to haunt PSG. But I still think that PSG is more likely to win the second leg as well because they don't have much pressure or any pressure at all about their French League.

If Real Madrid are to have any chance of qualifying for the quarter finals, then they must play a lot better than they did in the first leg of this tie, as a matter of fact they are in this losing position cause of how they approached the first leg, i think Ancelotti was more defensive than offensive when the two teams met a couple of weeks ago, and that is not the sort of approach we expect from a team of Real's standard. If they can up their game and play with a big more freedom then they have a chance in the second leg, but if they play the same way i am pretty sure they will be eliminated.

Another team that needs to change their approach is Manchester United, they have not be good this season, likewise their opponent Athletico though, but i think United were only lucky to equalize in that game and leave with a draw, Athletico remain my favorites to qualify and i believe they will defeat United in the second leg and go through.
