Dusan Vlahovic managed to make history with a quick goal on the European stage and not only that, this was also his first goal in Europe or more precisely in the UCL. Because, this is also the first match in the UCL for Dusan Vlahovic and he managed to make a good record but unfortunately, with that quick goal it was still not enough to make Juventus win. As previously predicted that this match will allow both teams to score goals, but considering this quick goal Juventus should have kept it or could have scored an additional goal but that didn't happen.
I thought that Dusan Vlahovic's quick goal in the first minute could inspire the spirit and composure of the game carried out by Juventus players but that didn't happen, precisely after going behind Villarreal could control the game well and make a return goal in the 66th minute which was created by Dani Parejo. Villarreal dominated the whole game but it was a shame that the two Villarreal strikers failed to take advantage of opportunities and create goals.
these two teams are very balanced I think the second leg will also be fierce and it is difficult to predict who will qualify for the next phase.

I would be disappointed to see Manchester United lossing tonight's fixture against Athletico Madrid.
All of the premier league sides have won their respective games without having a single goal conceded and keeping clean sheet.
There's a bit uncertainty, as I think Manchester United can't win comfortably without conceding.

Not good enough result for Juventus because match between Villareal only draw 1-1 although Dusan vlahovic scored faster goal on UEFA Champion Leagues last night but Juventus have held by Villareal. Juventus not have really impressive performance on 1st leg and draw is not guarantee easy for second leg for Juventus. Still have 50% or the same chance between Juventus or Villareal on second leg because not prohibited again with goal home or away after UEFA change goal rule.

Juventus this season's performance has decreased compared to last year, both in the Champions League and in Serie A. Although Juventus managed to score a goal very quickly, but in the end the opposing team managed to reply. I think it's difficult for Juventus to qualify for the next round even though it's only the first leg, by looking at the game's performance.
Since the departure of Ronaldo Juventus had not been a formidable team in Europe, though before Ronaldo left they had not lifted UCL trophy but are always playing well both in domestic and Europe, I think Villarreal will try to win the second leg in Turin even now that the away goal rule had been scrape, congratulations to Vlahovic for scoring a spectacular goal within some seconds at the beginning of the match, this youngster career will flourish having gaining experience of playing in UCL at his early age.

The success of Juventus being able to score a goal at home to Villarreal will greatly help Juventus to face the second match at home. The goal scored by striker Dusan Vlahovic who had just been recruited in the 32nd second of the first half did not make the mentality of the Villarreal players fall. Juventus is not bad, but facing Villarreal at home is not an easy job.
Dusan Vlahovic goal which was created in the 32nd second included a historic goal in the Champions League stage. Dusan Vlahovic became the third player to score in the first minute of his first game in the Champions League.
Vlahovic goal failed to give Juventus victory, because Villarreal hit back in the 66th minute to change the score to (1-1) until the game was over. The draw (1-1) makes Juventus and Villarreal both have a great chance to qualify for the Champions League quarter-finals, because the away goals (aggregate) a system is no longer valid, so Juventus has no advantage with this goal at home Villarreal.

Low scoring affairs in both matches. With Chelsea being huge favorites to win, they managed to get 2 goals, 1 in each half. Even though Lille had 15 attempted shots, they could only keep 2 on target which were saved by Mendy. In the other match, I was honestly expecting Juve to win, especially after their 1st goal in 1 min. Villarreal kept their composure and possession and managed to equalize in the 2nd half. Interesting to see if Villarreal can score at Juve's home as that would be necessary if they hope to continue further into the competition.
Chelsea couldn't relax after beating Lille in the 1st leg last night, because Chelsea are still waiting for a difficult match at the weekend, they will face liferpol in the carabou cup final, actually the hero of Chelsea's victory is Mendy, because Mendy is able to show his magic under the crossbar One of the most important saves was in the 36th minute. Mendy deserves an appreciation. He was branded at a low price but his performance under the crossbar cannot be doubted.
It was a wonderful win to boost their confidence going into Sundays final against Liverpool. Good performance putting them into a good position for the 2nd leg. Christian Pulisic and Kai Havertz were electric in attack. Also Masterclass from N'golo Kante and Thiago Silva. Best 2 individual performances I have seen from them in a while. Two goals and a clean sheet absolutely clinical performance. Started the game really well with the high pressing & movement upfront. Somehow the team performs better without Lukaku. Ruben Loftus Cheek was very impressive. Hope the injuries to Ziyech & Kovacic aren't serious so they can return against Liverpool.

Chelsea got the result that many predicted, yes they won the first leg match over LOSC. While Juventus had to settle for a draw, their quick goal did not give them victory over Villarreal. Villarreal played very well, they were able to remain calm even though they were surprised by Juventus' super-fast goal. Even so I see the game of the two teams is quite balanced, so they deserve this result.


Chelsea's victory over Lille was predictable since the match had not started where they would easily win over the French representative and the result was true where Chelsea managed to beat Lille with a score of 2-0 through goals scored by Kai Havertz and Christian Pulisic respectively. -8th and 63rd minutes respectively, while Juventus and Villarreal's match was also not a surprising result where they managed to share the points 1-1 even though Juventus took the lead with Dusan Vlahovic's quick goal in the 1st minute before finally being equalized by Dani Parejo in the minute to -66 which at the same time allowed Juventus to breathe a little easier because in the second match they will play at their home base at the Olimpico Turin,

Villareal was able to comeback somehow in the second half but wasnt able to win the match. Juventus had some chances to score but didnt and they go with a solid result home. I think at home they will win for sure and go into the next round of the champions league.
I think Juventus will win big against Villarreal after Vlahovic scored immediately at the start of the match. It turned out that Villarreal's players might
just lose concentration in the early minutes of the match, and finally Villarreal managed to score  a goal in the 66th minute. Actually the game of
the two teams was fairly even, Villarreal only slightly superior, but the chances of both teams were almost the same. In my opinion, Juventus will benefit
from this draw, because in the second leg Juventus will play at home. So Juventus chances are bigger than Villarreal, but Villarreal is not an easy team
to beat, so Juventus still have to play carefully. As long as Juventus can play discipline in the second leg, Juventus should be able to beat Villarreal.

I actually support Juventus to win, but when I look at all statistics for both clubs before the match, I bet for draw. and, my guess is it's exactly right, but unfortunately, I didn't bet for guessing the score.
I believe that quick goal in minute 1 made Villareal be careful to keep defense and attempt to counterattack but still unable to take several opportunities. finally, they did it on minute 66. In leg 2, I guess it will draw again, but when Juventus can take advantage of the situation as host, possible they can win with a tight different goal (1-0).

It is very likely that the second leg of the Juventus vs Villarreal match will end in a draw again and could end in a penalty shootout, if we look
at the gameplay both are almost the same. Because Juventus are playing at home and also the possibility that Juventus will take the initiative
to attack directly from the start of the match, so I would predict Juventus will beat Villarreal in the second leg. Villarreal have to keep their
defense well, because we know Juventus have Dusan Vlahovic who has very good finishing. Vlahovic doesn't need many chances to score,
Unai Emery has to give instructions to Pau Torres or Raul Albiol marking Vlahovic tight. Villarreal is also likely to play defensively and take
advantage of counter-attacks to score goals. I can imagine the game will be tight in the second leg, because both teams will definitely fight to win,
in order to qualify for the next round.

Slightly off the mark in Chelsea's goal tally, but it's good that they won in the end. I think Chelsea can win this match by more than 2 goals but it doesn't matter because 2 goals is not too bad to face the second leg in France.
2 goal difference is enough for Chelsea. They will be able to secure it and end with final win against Lille. Tuchel is doing his job well with Chelsea in Champions League. Will he bring Chelsea to another title, the second title in a row and a third one in their history. Will Chelsea become the second club can protect Champions League title after Real Madrid?

Regarding the result of the Villareal vs Juventus match I already suspected that a draw was a good choice even though Juventus looked to be the favorite. I watched this match for a while in the first half and I really saw Villareal playing well despite conceding early.

For me, the big odds are sometimes a trap to lose money more easily in bets and small odds are usually quite promising even though the win is not worth the stake.
Vlahovic has a good debut with a goal in 33rd second but then Juventus lost control and almost gave Villareal many time and space to play what they want. Even after Bonucci appears, he can not help Juventus defense to play better. They should feel very happy to end it as a draw. This pair is opened for both clubs and I would like to see Juventus to go next because they are only hope of Serie A in Champions League. Inter Milan are facing with impossible mission after a big loss against Liverpool in the first leg.

Yes Manchester United did a pretty good preparation before playing in the Champions League against Atletico Madrid. The last victory with a far enough goal difference became part of the readiness that was carried out.
This is one of the most awaited matches, of course, not just a meeting between two big teams in each league, but also a meeting between Cristiano Ronaldo and Simeone.
If Manchester United is against Atletico Madrid, then I see more between winning and losing without seeing a special meeting between Cristiano Ronaldo and Simeone.
Because if you look at the performances of both clubs for now it looks like Atletico Madrid will win even though Manchester United will also play better and if Manchester United can beat Atletico Madrid, this is something extraordinary for Manchester United at this time.
I do agree that Madrid is much better than United in my mind, when you consider two facts "ATM is the last la liga champions" and "United was so bad that they fired their manager" and when you consider these, it looks like ATM is much better. But at the end of the day, United got better after firing their manager, and ATM hasn't been as good as they used to be last season, so when you think about these then you think United could have a better chance as well.

I do not know, I really do not know which team should be favourites here let alone who I am going to end up gambling as well. I would probably go with 2.5+ goals for this game and just end it there as well.

This is actually quite spot on predictions actually, well done. I do know that Lille is not really going to win against Chelsea but sometimes when you bet, you cant really bet on Chelsea to win with odds less than 1.3x. This is a horrible odds to bet on so to even make it abit more interesting, you gotta take the option that most people consider that wont happen but there is a slight chance that it will

I personally stay away to placing any bet on this match. Juventus started pretty good, Vlahovic took about 30 seconds to score oh his UCL debut and help lead the match at early on. But, at the end Villareal deliver a equalizer goal on minute 66. It's irritating that draw the match, however the outcome very anticipated as you've said. Paulo Dybala were absent in the squad, and you can't expect they play somewhat impressive without regular star player.

For all those who like the historic stats.

DUSAN VLAHOVIC its now the most earlier scorer in his debut in the entire UCL history. You can check this.

https://twitter.com/MisterChiping/status/1496224130420678663?cxt=HHwWjoC94er608MpAAAA

Yes if you look Konoplyanka in 2015 made a faster goal but he was jump to the pitch from the bench. Dusan was in the initial team.
