Maybe it is a bit unfortunate for Inter Milan to have Liverpool as an opponent. But the Inter Milan team should not be underestimated. They have the ability to beat Liverpool. Liverpool is definitely a strong team. However, Liverpool must play well if they want to win against Inter Milan. Liverpool will lose points if they make a mistake. If they think Inter Milan is weak then it will be their big mistake.

At this stage of the tournament, this is not the worst option, and in any case, if Inter wants to win the tournament, it must be ready for any opponent. If not at this stage, then in the next stage, the likelihood of meeting a top club is very high. And in my opinion it is better to lose to Liverpool than, for example, to Lill  Grin

Inter are a quite unlucky team as they have a draw against Liverpool in last 16 stage. Liverpool are the favourite side by far in my opinion. Their great performance is not only seen in the EPL but also here. They dominated their group and won all of their matches. And their opponents weren't very easy ones too. Inter on the other hand didn't start well but started improving their effort later. And they are the dominator of the Serie A currently. Maybe they can resist Liverpool in Giuseppe Meazza and get a draw at least. But Liverpool would finish the job in Anfield.

In as much as in a field of play, anyone can win or beat the opponent. I do not see inter eliminating Liverpool. No matter that Inter is sitting on the top of the table, Liverpool will handle them well.
Assuming it's a one leg, maybe Inter can win. But it's home and prayer. So, even if a mistake is done, at the returning match, every mistake will be corrected.
It occurred to me to remember that Liverpool's match on the UCL stage, whether it was in the group stage or in the knockout phase in the past, at that time Liverpool found the opponent was a mediocre team, whether it was a team from where the opponent was, I forget. But at least it happened a few times at that time but unfortunately, Liverpool against a mediocre team or maybe it can be said is a dark horse team several times Liverpool have lost. But when Liverpool play a top team then I remember Liverpool will be able to finish well and with the history I remember like that, it is very possible to play against Inter this knockout round at least Liverpool still promises a good result. Also, when teams from England play against teams from Italy, I personally feel most of them will always side with the England team but yes, even though it's not certain but it looks like teams from England can indeed play more powerfully.

It's true that currently real madrid is the club that won the most champions league with 13 trophies, but this does not guarantee that they will easily beat PSG later, now PSG have many star players who are very experienced in the champions league like messi, Neymar, Donnarumma and even Sergio Ramos who is the former captain of Madrid, I think with the many star players available, of course PSG should not be underestimated by Madrid, especially since they are now the champions league trophy as the main focus this season and of course it will be a high motivation for PSG players to beat Madrid in the match .
I feel that when we talk about the players at PSG, we will never feel bored because the players at this club are like avengers who are very strong.
But that also doesn't mean Real Madrid will just lose. even though right now they are in a bad mood due to the covid storm that hit their squad but they are still real madrid
As I said, in football it is very difficult to predict which team will win, but of course logically we can see if PSG are currently in quite impressive condition and it even looks like this season will be the best season for them, now La Liga conditions those who are starting to be affected by covid will certainly be a special concern from madrid by taking care of their players according to health protocols, I think right now only ligue 1 may not have been much affected by covid transmission.
Rather than the avengers, I prefer to equate the current PSG team like a sequel to a film that titled The Expendables Grin.

Red Devils are unpredictable in the soul...

the formation you have, the spirit you have .. it remains even if the players change and the years pass

see Atalanta, a team that I have been following for at least a decade or more
over the years it has maintained its humility and still builds not thinking of being a great team

-- its just an example, but the mentality and "spirit" of team remain
..
another example, Inter
how many coaches, managers, bosses, players has he changed?
yet it always remains an inconclusive team (see CL)

look at Juventus, a team that has always thought only about money and the budget
The word you are looking for is "money". Money is not just used to buy players, it is used to hire staff as well, staff that are best at what they are doing, staff that gain experience in other clubs and show future and hired, staff that have the best techniques to improve the players the best, revolving constantly of course but still the best are hired with money. Money is used to buy training pitches, field that is the best ever, field that goes from small size practice things to huge sizes, equipment that makes players the best, equipments that takes huge amount of money to constantly buy new, millions spent on it every year.

From cooks to nutritionists to psychologists to many other stuff. Basically money makes a team big, and I do not mean just money once, I mean consistently getting that money and spending it on the club for things that won't change, even the buildings. Then of course you get players, the most important part, but without other parts, the best player would become a bad player eventually.

After Real Madrid Liverpool is second team who is having very good record in UEFA Champion League and Inter is already improving after very bad start in Italian League and Champions League but still it's not easy for them to face Liverpool in this knock out stage match with their 100% record and thrashing AC Milan badly in their last match they are able to beat another Italian side with same aggression and most chances they are going to end Inter's business into UEFA Champions League here in round of 16 as Liverpool is having very strong case for qualifying into last four after this its really tough thing for all teams as any team can win this year's title.

In my opinion, currently there are three strong teams that are candidates for champions champions this season, Liverpool, Manchester City and PSG, but among the three teams I think PSG and Manchester City are the most likely teams to win the Champions League, just like you,  I think the performances of the two teams were quite impressive this season and  which is the reason why I predict that one of the two teams will be able to get their first champions league trophy this season, but now PSG have left their opponents in the league with a pretty far point difference, and their has a greater focus  in champions league match than Manchester City which is now also the champion of the English Premier League half season.

these three teams had an extraordinary match in the group stage. On the other hand, currently City in the last 16 phase will face Sporting CP which in fact City will definitely be seeded.
But unlike PSG, maybe PSG is very good for Ligue 1 but I don't really expect that in the UCL.
They do have very good ability and their players are very dangerous in every line but their opponent is Real Madrid now.
Don't forget that Madrid is the most champions of the UCL at the moment, on the other hand I still feel that Madrid is better than PSG at the moment, especially in the UCL.

It's true that currently real madrid is the club that won the most champions league with 13 trophies, but this does not guarantee that they will easily beat PSG later, now PSG have many star players who are very experienced in the champions league like messi, Neymar, Donnarumma and even Sergio Ramos who is the former captain of Madrid, I think with the many star players available, of course PSG should not be underestimated by Madrid, especially since they are now the champions league trophy as the main focus this season and of course it will be a high motivation for PSG players to beat Madrid in the match .

Manchester City now have a chance to win both the Premier League and Champions League titles.
We have seen Manchester City's dominance in both the Champions and Premier League. Their tactics are excellent, with the help of Pep Guardiola The Manchester City players have been able to organize themselves very well. City players are less likely to lose their form this season if they do not suffer too many injuries.
Just like last year, I think many are guessing city will win ucl. But unfortunately Chelsea were luckier, they became champions. Man City's game is always fun to see. Their dominance is also evident in the EPL. Maybe Man city is a reflection of the premier league. But for the champion I'm not sure. There are a lot of teams that are very experienced and have good players. Ucl is still running for quite a long time. There are some important games, maybe for the first stage against Sporting is a pretty interesting game I'm sure Man city will go through the next round.

I don't think is going to be a thriller of a match, because both team( Manchester United and Atletico Madrid) are playing very awfully in there various leagues right now, Manchester United are the worst because they have more good quality players but when watching them you can't see anything skillful in there play.i just think they are missing Paul pogba very badly ever since he got injured there has not been anyone to link the defence and attack as good as he does.

One thing you have to understand is that neither Atletico Madrid nor Manchester United are the favorites to win the Champions League. The quality of play between the two teams has declined in recent times. Now we can think of these two teams as equal. This is the only reason I think their match will be competitive. Both teams are playing badly, so they will want to win. However, both teams may play defensively. Because Forward's players are failing to play well.

Atletico are certainly not favorites to win the title, but were they when they reached the final twice a few years ago? Then it was just a mediocre team, compared to the teams present at the time. Griezman is now back on the old nest. I think it's a mediocre team, but they give everything in every game. There is not enough quality, but with a good draw you can go far. Real Madrid is a good value shot to win the League.

I partially agree with your statement because with current form both teams have no chance for winning this year's title specially Atletico Madrid is going down very badly recently and Manchester United having too many issues on and off the field, so this match is going to have some entertainment nothing else but still with current situation I believe Manchester Unites is having some out sider chance for beating Atletico Madrid and qualifying for next knock out round which most chances they will be out from this competition in this quarter-final which is still good for them.

As of now, Manchester United forwards are doing some better than Atletico Madrid because they are creating more chances in all matches but fail to convert them.

One of the things I'm curious about is whether Chelsea would become the winner of the Champions League two times in a row. But it doesn't seem to me like a big possibility. Even in the last season, it was surprising for most people to see Chelsea winning the Champions League title. Because teams like PSG, Manchester City etc. were performing much bigger than them. But they had a very great discipline that they still were the champions at the end.

I can bet everything against Chelsea winning the Champions League this year,well of course this is just a saying which means that I highly doubt they can win this season.The reason is quite simple,most of the other teams are much stronger than Chelsea is,luck can not always be by your side.For example if Chelsea can face PSG eventually they based on the players quality most likely will easily win against Chelsea.Rather than discipline it was luck but also discipline in the critical games.Nah I doubt it will happen again.
Even though it is true that Chelsea are quite superior in the last 16 now but I think the next phase will be more difficult because there are indeed fewer teams and on average it is definitely a very strong team.
What you did by betting entirely on chelsea is actually not wrong but there must be a careful calculation with this coupled with the performance of chelsea which incidentally the players are still being hit by a storm of injuries
I think that Chelsea's great responsibility is for its players, many thought that the team was not going to go very far, however favorites like Man City and PSG who promise as never have been the ones that have marked many, including Liverpool hand in hand with Salah, it is for this reason that I have always said that in football anything is possible and that nothing is written and that here the statistics can fall at any time, it is for this reason that sometimes football has a lot to do with it. do with good luck, and that is a determining factor.

Maybe the matchup between Atletico Madrid and Manchester United is not between the biggest candidates of the CL title. But they are still strong teams on paper. On the other hand, their recent forms have been not very satisfying. Atletico Madrid have lost so many points in the La Liga lately and they barely advanced to this round of the CL. And Manchester United couldn't even defeat Newcastle last. But there is still a long time for this matchup. Things could change but I'll still be favoring the Red Devils.

While this is not a match for the biggest candidates, it is one of the most competitive matches. Atletico Madrid are not playing well in La Liga. Having lost several matches in a row, they now have to give up hope of winning the title. Manchester United, on the other hand, are in dire straits. They are performing very poorly. I said their performance was very poor because, I think United have the most star players in the Premier League. Yet their performance is not satisfactory. Both teams are in the same situation now. So the match will be competitive.

It might not be a match between the Champions League title contenders, but at least it will be very interesting and many see Manchester United as favourites over Atlético de Madrid. At least that was the case immediately after the draw, I don't know how Atletico's players reacted, but they were clearly unhappy after the replay of the draw.

If we compare the two teams, now neither team is in the form. No team has any hope or possibility of winning their own league title. Atletico Madrid are 17 points behind Real Madrid in the La Liga, wand Manchester United now 22 points behind of Manchester City.

However, the Champions League match in February. The teams have enough time to strengthen themselves. Manchester United's squad is strong, but their gameplay is weak. If they change their match strategy in 2 months then I bet for Manchester United to win.

I agree that Real Madrid have a greater chance of winning the game than Paris Saint-Germain. But that doesn't mean the game will be easy. Both teams have big-name players. I prefer to see how the coaches of both teams apply the strategy in the next match, and take advantage of every position they have.

Real Madrid have a greater chance? I don't think so man. In fact, none of the teams in the PSG - Real Madrid matchup have a bigger chance than the other. Maybe PSG can be seen as one step ahead by many people and I think so too truthfully. However, these teams both have an equal chance to advance to the quarter final round actually. Because Real Madrid also are in a great condition this season. They also are powerful enough to move PSG out of their way. But there is a long time interval ahead and we will see what happens until then.
Still early to predict which one potential pass to next round because pandemic covid 19 crisis make less out our prediction looking with many player have out from team list suddenly. I think if both have full team I think Madrid have bigger chance get pass to next stage looking how consistent Madrid in champion league depend PSG not consistent on every match. Not only with Ligue 1 PSG faced trouble on champion league and loss many points on group stage after defeating by Manchester City.

I prefer to see how the coaches of both teams apply the strategy in the next match, and take advantage of every position they have.

I think the chances of both teams in this match are equal. Which team would we call weak here?

PSG will be stronger after Neymar returns from injury. At the same time Messi, Mbappe and Ramos are enough to beat Real Madrid. On the other hand, Real Madrid have the goal machine Benzema. And the young genius Vinicius. It's hard to keep them from scoring goals. Anything can happen in this match. However, the match will largely depend on the coach's strategy.
It is difficult to predict who will win in that match, now both teams have a fairly capable attack line and PSG may have a stronger defense than madrid, but the cohesiveness of madrid attackers in arranging attack schemes certainly deserves to be watched out for by the PSG defense,  I think these two big teams will play hard to beat each other and I agree that the coach experience and contribution in implementing the match strategy will certainly make the difference in this match.
