There are still 90 minutes for Real Madrid to turn things around. Real Madrid will not let PSG players party at the Santiago Bernabeu. Ancelotti will instruct his men to play better from the first leg, there is no surrender for Madrid players before the referee blows the whistle to mark the end of the game, they will make Messi and his friends go home with their heads down.

I have started waiting for especially the Atletico Madrid - Manchester United game on the coming week. Because these teams are very similar to each other these days. Both of them are in an unreliable situation. But if we compare the performances in the Champions League so far, Manchester United impressed me more. Atletico Madrid are just trying to give importance to defense first. And this doesn't work all the time of course. And Manchester United have a very strong attacking line now. Atletico Madrid can have serious problems on defending them. Ronaldo's performance will be crucial for the team.
I personally will tend to be on the side of United at this time because I think Atletico now really have to make something new in their strategy.Their performance decline is more drastic compared to the current MU.
for United's attack line and athletico maybe almost equal because these two clubs are still struggling in goal productivity but in midfield and back I think now MU is more stable than Atletico.
If you take the current performances of both teams in their leagues, then the game is relatively balanced. I don't see any team favored. Both have their problems and strengths. ManU was rather lucky to win the league game against Leeds today.I rather believe that progress in next round will depend on the day's form.
Chelsea v Lille, I believe Chelsea is the favorite team and will certainly win on paper. But after looking at the next schedule I think Chelsea has quite a lot of pressure too, because in a short time after this match Chelsea must immediately focus on the final match in the EFL Cup against Liverpool. But even so I still believe Chelsea will still win in this first leg because this first leg will be held at Stamford Bridge, considering Lille also this season is not good enough Ligue 1. Just considering the result that might be a surprise, but I also realize from the quality it seems Chelsea is still the best.
On the other hand Lille is in a good shape not in League 1 but CL. they have recorded successive wins over Wolfsburg, Sevilla and Red Bull Salzburg which are not easy to beat up but they did it and made successful matches, that means that Lile is always dangerous team for the opponents, therefore, now Chelsea have a lot to do in order to win this very hard match.
This PSG team has it all to win the champions league. I'm even surprised they found it difficult to win the first leg convincingly.
Of course they do, at least if we look at the individual talent in their team, they were not so brilliant during the group stages as they struggled to blend together as a team and that resulted in a couple of poor performances, but in the RO16 first leg against Madrid a few days ago i must say i was really impressed, and yes they should have won by more than one goal, they controlled the game from start to finish and restricted Real Madrid from really causing any problems, i am pretty sure they will go through to the QF, but i do not think they will win the CL.Having said that, my favorites for the CL this season remains Manchester City and Bayern Munich, i feel either of them is going to go all the way this season.

Ancelotti will instruct his men to play better from the first leg, there is no surrender for Madrid players before the referee blows the whistle to mark the end of the game, they will make Messi and his friends go home with their heads down.I really don't think that only one goal advantage is going to be enough for PSG to have a safe position in the second leg, and I absolutely believe that Real Madrid is going to try their best to have a result in their favor. I know that PSG is a strong team and the way they scored in the first leg seemed like they were a great team with great chemistry between the players. But that is not exactly the case in my opinion and in the second leg Real Madrid is going to exploit their weakness thoroughly.

Real Madrid has nothing to prove, the have been the better team for a very long time now and have won it all. If PSG was to win them in the second leg and progress to the next stage;f the tournament, it won't be a surprise as that's what we all are expecting. Will Real Madrid put up a fight, yes of course but that doesn't mean they'll be able to stop PSG from progressing. This PSG team has it all to win the champions league. I'm even surprised they found it difficult to win the first leg convincingly.
But I still think that Salzburg is going to give them a good fight, but that might not be enough actually.
Salzburg will come into that game with high hope and that might give them some fighting chance. They will try to sit back and absorb all that Bayern will throw at them. If they can catch Bayern off guard with a counter and get the first goal then Bayern Munich are in for a game. Personally I don't want Bayern to leave the competition this early as I want a clash between them and PSG or Manchester City. Them leaving now will just make the competition less competitive.
Real Madrid have pretty good statistics in the champions league, especially in the 2nd leg despite losing in the 1st leg. I think with a score of 1-0 it is not difficult for Madrid to score 2 goals at the Bernabeu in the 2nd leg later and I am optimistic Madrid was able to qualify for the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League this season. Madrid's front line may not have performed optimally, especially since Benzema has just recovered from an injury during the 1st leg against PSG, but in the 2nd leg he will appear in much better condition than the 1st leg.

Yeah salzburg is a tough opponent this season they really played well in the champions league they have beaten sevilla and many tough opponents they owe that draw not only to the defenders but to the goalkeeper who saved them on many occasions bayern defense is not doing well lately especially with neuer absence thats why they conceided that goal but in the end they will get the job done and qualify and i expect them to score many goals in the second match.
Yes, that's true, but Bayern Munich will also improve their way of playing in the second match because there is no club to be underestimated in the champions league this time because all of them will play very well in order to survive for the next round with the aim of winning the title this season.Moreover, a club like Bayern Munich is also not a weak club in the Champions League and this has been seen very often in the Champions League the previous season.
True. Salzburg really defended quite well in that match. I mean, with the Bayern Munich attack, they made some quite good chances. But they failed to score more than once. And for that, a lot of credit goes to the defense of Salzburg.
Obviously, Bayern Munich also made mistakes while finishing but they faced a stubborn defense of Salzburg. I think the next match is going to be absolutely different and Bayern will be ready for them.
for the first match we should give praise to the RB Salzburg defense where the defensive strategy they applied was enough to make it difficult for Bayern Munich players to penetrate the RB Salzburg defense, but it was a shame they failed to maintain the victory that was in sight how they had to be conceded at minute 90th goal through Kingsley coman which made the match have to end in a 1-1 draw, while in the second match will be played at the Allianz arena Bayern Munich headquarters, of course they just hope not to concede many goals considering Bayern Munich is the most productive team when playing in especially in the champions league phase.and the game itself will certainly belong to Bayern Munich to beat RB Salzburg in the second match later

This Salzburg team is very exciting to watch,they remind me of the Ajax team that reach the semi final of the champions League, very young and vibrant players, seeing kids tormenting Bayern Munich defence was very funny,I think if they can knock Bayern out of the champions League which I believe they could then they have put there selves into transfer just like De Jong, De lift and zeyich did at Ajax.Obviously, Bayern Munich also made mistakes while finishing but they faced a stubborn defense of Salzburg. I think the next match is going to be absolutely different and Bayern will be ready for them.
I know we were shocked by the results of the match but we can agree that we have to give credit to Salzburg for putting up a real fight against Bayern Munich.
And the players of Salzburg have some big transfers up ahead of them let me tell you that.
I think the Bayern players themselves were a little shocked during the game that they couldn't score and convert their chances... After such a difficult match, and even a draw, they will be furious and angry, so I think they won't leave a chance in the next Salzburg game... But maybe Salzburg will be ready for it again, however, I don't believe that Salzburg will go out in the 1/4...
So, I think they are going to fix that by winning with a big margin in the second leg.
But I still think that Salzburg is going to give them a good fight, but that might not be enough actually.
Exactly Salzburg is not really difficulty to defeat by Bayern on 1st leg on UEFA Champion League but have different situation where Bayern Munich save by Kingsley Coman on last minutes when game ended with his only one goal. I think still have chance on 2nd leg for Bayern Munich to beat Salzburg but they need how to play aggressive and must be able to score goals in the early minutes of the game. Bayern should at least be able to take advantage of the status of playing as home to achieve a convincing victory in the 2nd leg against Salzburg and at least have to be able to score goals in the early minutes.
No doubt!. They have corrected what makes them not win. Furthermore in-home, Munchen has predicted to win at least 2 goals, several predicted won with 80% chance, while Salzburg under 10%. but everything can happen, we don't know what strategy Salzburg uses for the next 2 weeks if possible make the surprise if can hold the draw, they will create new achievements in the champions league. 
Bayern was almost defeated, luckily Coman scored in the minute 90'. ...snip

Bayern are lucky they didn't lose, otherwise it might be a chore in Munich. Then, for example, 2-1 would not be enough. After this 1-1 draw, even a goalless draw would suffice, but Bayern are not a team that will play at 0-0. They go full for the win from the 1st minute to quickly build in certainty to the next round. 0-0 for too long is risky.

So Nantes a little team compared to the Real Madrid can made 3 goals to P$G but the Real Madrid with all his stars choose to play extremely defensive and dont shoot one shoot at goal.
Its unbelivable, how you can be so mean.
And you really play bad Real dont receive more goal that day only for luck and his goalkeeper.

And Manchester United have a very strong attacking line now. Atletico Madrid can have serious problems on defending them. Ronaldo's performance will be crucial for the team.
I really would not call manchester United's attack force very strong, i can agree that they actually do have quality players upfront, but they are not at their best this season, Ronaldo has been trying his best to push the team forward and i must say he has scored some really important goals that have recued united from further woes, but i'm afraid he can't do it alone.Having said that, Athletico Madrid v Manchester United somewhat seems unpredicable to me, i cannot really pick one side, Manchester United are very much erratic, you could possibly feel they ought to come out and win, but they would do the opposite. Anyway i would go with Athletico Madrid if i am asked to pick a team to go through, i feel they might have what it takes to edge united.
