Villarreal 0 - 0 Manchester United

Seriously, every Manchester coach that has appeared in recent times makes strange choices, how does he leave bruno fernandes on the bench? without bruno fernandes Manchester united hasn't been able to attack Villareal, it seems that Manchester United is a team of the third division.

Dynamo Kiev 0 - 2 Bayern Munich

Robert Lewandowski scored a beautiful goal

Midfield collapsed!
No one to complete the passes that will cause a goal;
Most times Martial and Ronaldo had to return to build up the play.
I think Lingard or Bruno is needed in this second half.
Matic should relax.
Then Fred should be substituted.
Zero confidence in the midfield.
I miss Pogba with his confidence and level of pass completion.

I would like to express my thoughts on the champions league matches that will be played tonight. Bayern Munich will pass Dynamo Kiev without any problems. In the Villarreal v ManU game, everything is possible. My expectation is that it will be a draw. I think Chelsea will win the Chelsea-Juventus game. They have an ascending form. Barça can win in the Barcelona-Benfica match. They are trying to be a new team with Xavi. There are very exciting Matches today.

in first half Bayern Munich looked much better even despite snow on the pitch but Dynamo Kyiv also had a couple of chances to score their first goal in the group stage. now Bayern Munich leads 2-0 but in second half we can see more goals.

Strange decision i agree , but i think Bruno Fernandes has been a busy man of late ,trying to play defensive football, trying to create goal scoring chances...you name it his been everywhere, and i think his better off starting from the bench today and commit to only one task ,like create and score goals!

Blame it on the snow maybe but Bayern Munich are getting goals like they are known for and more should be coming in the second half thanks to their superior ball possession , and Robert Lewandowski keeps showing the world why his among the best and game isn't over yet maybe more goals for him.

The Villarreal - Manchester United game has started half an hour ago. And so far in the game, Villarreal have been the more dominant team. They don't only have more shots. They have the most ball possession also. This is the first game without Ole for Manchester United. They still haven't signed a new manager so Carrick is coaching them temporarily. Maybe, Villarreal won't let them win the game. In the game before, Manchester United turned the game around and won by 2-1. This time, they might not be that lucky. But they should be aware of a critical point also that they will guarantee their lead if they win this game. I'm still favoring them to win but it is going to be really tough.

The first half ended and both teams still couldn't score a goal, and indeed Villarreal dominated the game. Villarreal should have won the game,
apart from playing at home, Man United players may not be used to Carrick as interim coach. It's a very interesting match, in addition to determining
the first position in Group F, the loser may not qualify for the next round. If Atalanta can win in the last two rounds, it means that there are still
many possibilities that can happen in Group F. We'll see if in the second half Villarreal can score the winning goal, or even Man United is lucky to beat
Villarreal again.

Almost missed Carrick's first game in charge against Villarreal, and this is how the teams line up against each other

Villarreal XI: Rulli, Foyth, Albiol, P Torres, Estupinan, Parejo, Capoue, Trigueros, Gomez, Danjuma, Pino

Manchester United Starting XI: De Gea, Wan-Bissaka, Maguire, Lindelof, Telles, Fred, McTominay, Van de Beek, Sancho, Martial, Ronaldo

Substitutes: Heaton, Henderson, Bailly, Dalot, Fernandes, Lingard, Mata, Matic, Amad, Rashford

Carrick seems to have maintained the same team, hope he wins with it

Villarreal have dominated the game so far and are very organized in precise passing and also very disciplined compared to Manchester United in inaccurate long passes.
and apart from that Villarreal had some good chances and it was the job of Manchester United's back line to strengthen and focus not to concede, It looks like Michael Carrick's strategy is focused on Ronaldo to score goals and being the lone striker to focus on, and maybe that's why Fernandes is on the bench backup. Hopefully there is a good change in the second half for Manchester United and to score.

Tonight is the return of Champions League. It will be an amazing evening as Bayern Munich, Chelsea, and Barcelona will win. The game between Villarreal and Manchester United is also unknown to me. Considering that Ole, who is usually paired with Maguire in losing and drawing games, so he should be on the bench today. Losing this game may be their priority at the moment. Although I think the game will end in a draw, I hope to win.

Goodnight, o_e_l_e_o 🌹

There will be no much difference between Ole and Carrick!

They will both face the defensive midfield problem.
Just that Carrick will be more attacking minded.
Whatever plays out, Carrick is expected to fix Manchester United defensive midfield because that was his position as a player.
With the pair of Fred and Mc Tommy in the defensive midfield, I am not confident about Manchester United dominating in possession in this match against Villareal.

Martial should be happy Ole didn't make Carrick forget his potentials. Let's hope for a new dawn for Tony.

There will be a group leader match between Manchester United and Villarreal. I think Villarreal in Spain will definitely win this match, in which the winning team will be the leader. This match is very important for Manchester United after Solksjaer was fired.

i have the opposite think, i am very sure mu will win in this match because they have got a new coach, even though he is still an interim coach but Carrick has different thoughts from Ole. i predict a thin score ^(1-0) for mu victory.

Indeed, MU can easily beat Villarreal, because he has Ronaldo who can penetrate the defense of the yellow submarines with his technical abilities. Ronaldo will remind us today of the goals of the past there in the Lega. Wink

Bayern will have an easy match and they won't be stopped by Dynamo Kiev.

It can be worse than a draw for Manchester United. Carrick is a temporary coach for them and I don't believe that Carrick will solve problems and help them to win. The opponent is not simple. They are Villareal and we know Villareal are never easy team to beat.

Quote

I think Chelsea will win the Chelsea-Juventus game. They have an ascending form. Barça can win in the Barcelona-Benfica match. They are trying to be a new team with Xavi. There are very exciting Matches today.

Chelsea are not much stronger than Juventus and Juventus are getting good results in Champions League. They will try to continue it and get good result to come back to Serie A with more confidence.

Barcelona are in same issues as Manchester United and Benfica are similar to Villareal and are able to create difficulty for Barcelona and Xavi.

I think of win for Bayern, draw for Chelsea and Juventus and not good results for Manchester United and Barcelona with draw or loss.

in group e it will be exciting today - if benfica wins away at fc barcelona today, they will overtake the spaniards and would then occupy second place... the catalans would then be threatened with elimination.
in the game fc chelsea vs. juventus, i see a small advantage for the english, who would maybe score their first defeat in the cl to the old dame today
i can very well imagine that bayern will have a very hard time in kiev...

Correct, Juventus has been qualified already to the Play-Off stage but I do not think they will let Chelsea win the game easily to take the 1st position. I think Juventus will play defensively and try to maximize counter attack strategy. Regarding Dybala, seems that he is recovered and ready to play but I dont think Allegri will force him to play (full time) and maybe he will start from the bench.

Juventus made the playoffs, but he will not want to give first place to Chelsea, because in that case he will have to play in the playoffs with the team that took first place. Therefore, it is better to play well now, to keep the first place and go to the play-offs, with a weaker team. I think Chelsea will score today and Juventus will need to score too, so as not to lose at least.

I personally still believe both teams to score, although in the first match they looked very tight which only resulted in 1 goal for Juventus. But here at Stamford Bridge, I believe the match will be much more open and both teams will still play to win and of course with more open gameplay will result in easier goals. I personally don't have a choice which team will win or draw, because I just convinced myself to bet with the over 2.5 goals option in the parlay bet.

This match is very important for Manchester United after Solksjaer was fired. In the Atalanta-Young Boys match, Atalanta will win.

It will be a battle of supremacy to know who will top group F, a draw for both team will give Atalanta an advantage or an edge of topping the group, if they defeat Young Boys with a wide goal margin thus all the three teams will settle with 8 points but separated with goal difference, however I think Man Utd players will want react to the sacking Ole in a positive way, both teams are familiar with each other and it will a very competitive match both teams knowing the consequences of losing this crucial leg, I am predicting the match to end in a draw.

Barcelona have lost their previous match against Benfica. They conceded 3 goals and could not score a single goal in return. Their gameplay was very weak. But after Xavi's debut, I watched the last match of Barcelona. They are back to tiki-taka tactics. And their gameplay was very tidy. If they can show the same kind of gameplay in today's match, they will be able to win today. In my prediction, Barcelona will win 2-1.

In my opinion, this is an extremely wrong decision - even with a weak opponent, this tactic brought minimal results. If Benfica will defend well and play on counterattacks, then she will win the match, or at least draw. But even a draw in this match for Barcelona would mean the actual elimination from the tournament.

It is a great news for Ramos and PSG's fans. After a long time we will see Ramos on the field. Hopefully Ramos will not disappoint fans like us. He will play well.

It is good to see Ramos again. It would be good match to help him to warm up and prepare for Champions League in coming months.

PSG will use Ramos appropriately in order to prepare him for important matches in Champions League or at least as an important substitution when they need to strengthen their defense to protect leading goals.

Quote

However, since he has been injured for so long. He may not be given the opportunity to play the full 90 minutes. Everything will depend on the decision of the coach.

Sure, it won't be a full match for Ramos. A first match after a long injury and recovery for Ramos so he won't be used in a whole match. Probably he will be replaced in the second half.
