Very interestingly, Inter couldn't do much against Shakhtar in the second half also. Shakhtar are not that hard opponent recently as even Sheriff defeated them. But Inter still struggled to win the match. They should be thankful to their competitor so that Shakhtar weren't able to score. Because if they scored first, it was going to be even harder for Inter to make a comeback.
Today, Paris Saint-Germain is playing the most difficult game this season, with the MMN trio in front of a coach who loves possession, spinning the ball and attacking with as many players as possible. The presence of the trio gives a great offensive advantage and gives the opponent large spaces to build and move, and this is Pep’s strength.
If you own the midfield, he will kill you quickly. Who are the top 3 players in the Paris midfield who make a physical sacrifice and cover the absence of defensive assistance from the offensive trio?
Herera and Veratti are the midfield that will continue to sacrifice and supply the ball forward for the 3 players of this PSG trio.If you own the midfield, he will kill you quickly. Who are the top 3 players in the Paris midfield who make a physical sacrifice and cover the absence of defensive assistance from the offensive trio?
Who would have thought and will Pep be able to keep these 3 dangerous players? While on the other hand I also have no doubts about the Manchester City squad and Pep's strength, however I believe this match will be very interesting to watch.
The match has started, let's watch together.
Others 2 points lost for Inter and now their situation is not so good.
They have 1 point after 2 games, the key match for them will probably be the second leg with shaktar.
The game of the money will start in minutes, have fun.

You are expecting to much from PSG. The team has great set of players but that doesnt mean they are going to win easily against Manchester City. So far PSG has been dominating in Ligue 1 but that is pretty much nothing compared to Premier League. Anyway, this is going to be a good match to watch but City is most likely going to win this match
Shakhtar and Inter drew 0-0 but both teams had their chances to score. Inter had couple of chances right at the end of the game. notably it's 3rd 0-0 draw between this teams in a row.
Besiktas is too weak a team for the Champions League. Turkish teams are not performing well in the Champions League. The level of the championship has decreased, while Ajax is playing on a par with the top teams in Europe, especially since the Dutch championship is much higher in level than the Turkish one.
Did you even watch one game of Beşiktaş this season? Your comment is too ignorant, Beşiktaş is at Champions League level but they had 12 players missing. There isn't even three players in bench to substitute today. U19 central midfield player played for stopper in last twenty minutes. You should check actual squads and watch at least one game before commenting on the level of football.
Even with too many missing players, Beşiktaş still scored and referee cancelled the clean goal. We should talk about incapable referees, he's nowhere near Champions League level, he can manage matches in amateur leagues maybe. It could've been different score in the end. If both teams play with their ideal squad Beşiktaş could get a point here. Unlucky night but home game will be the exact opposite of today.
My prediction: Shakhtar Donetsk 0-1 Inter milan
This match is very important for Inter Milan. They were defeated in the previous match, could not gain any points. Even in this match, if they draw or lose points, going to the next round will be more difficult for them. So from this match, Inter Milan must get 3 points. Inter Milan is a stable team, it is a shame for them if they can't win against Shakhtar.
Ajax leave no chance for Besiktas. In the first half, Ajax struck 16 shots on the opponent's goal and 5 of them on target, while they scored two goals. Besiktas only once shot in the direction of Ajax. The difference in the class of teams is simply enormous, I did not think that Besiktas would give the match to the Dutch so easily. But apparently in the second half, Ajax will score a few more goals and that will be it.

Actually, this is not the toughest group for Besiktas. Dortmund are the best team of the group and Ajax are also very powerful. But Besiktas are actually capable of getting points from these teams especially in their home games. The toughest home game for them was against Dortmund but they still weren't beaten by a big gap. Now, they were beaten by Ajax away with a 2-0 result. This still proves that Besiktas would have done much better if they didn't have so many important missing players. Because they have been struggling with many injuries.

I just saw the line up for PSG vs City game. Definitely gonna be a tough game. Both teams are fielding about a strong squad like its the champions league final 
Messi, Mbappe and Neymar in the starting line up for PSG and City has their best line up as well. Might opt to watch this game instead of watching my team (Liverpool) vs Porto. I'm sure it would be a closely contested one.
I don't know but PSG has the home advantage here. That should count for something at least? Anyway let's see how it plays out. My bet is on PSG to win.

With problems like PSG in midfield the MC will easily take 3 points today. Leo Messi alone will not drag because here the partners do not understand him.

Messi is 100% fit for the game today. I'm really looking forward to this one, it would have been a real shame if he had to miss it.
PSG will be without Ramos (injury) and Di Maria (suspension) and City can't count on Gundogan and Zinchenko (both injured).
PSG is still winless against City, I have a feeling today is their day.

I think that also. Messi will be under personal pressure because of the last substitution. And because Paris played only 1:1 against Club Bruges in the first game, they are forced to win. This is the game of the. There are other good teams playing, but Paris against Manchester will be great.
It is really interesting to see that Shakhtar are really capable of fighting back against Inter. In the first half, this was the thing we watched mostly. Moreover, Shakhtar played even better than Inter. I don't know what is wrong with Inter now but I believe that they will start performing much better in the second half. Inter are a stronger team normally. They shouldn't be afraid of their competitor and they should make an effort for more.
I am surprised to see that Shakhtar is having a good performance against Donetsk and Inter Milan. I would say that Shakhtar Donetsk's players are performing better than Inter Milan's so far. The Shakhtar team is ahead in both ball possession and attack. Inter's performance as I see it now, there is nothing to be surprised if Shakhtar wins this match. But I think Inter Milan will win the match 1-0.
Dominant possession of the ball is indeed Shakhtar control but I believe Inter Milan can still control before and even the second shot was not dangerous but I think in the second half it will be even more exciting where they will change their strategy.But I believe and have bet on Inter milan with 2.5 odds meaning Inter Milan can win narrowly with Shakhtar because they also have strong experience and only coach Simone Inzhagi I still have doubts about, but that's the game of chances he can face UCL well.

Tonight, two of the most expensive clubs will go head-to-head in the Champions League. The UCL is still unwinnable and both teams lost their finals. Therefore, money cannot buy trophies. Regardless, both teams have better sides, and it is one of the biggest games in UCL this season. Let's hope PSG does not disappoint us. Messi continues to do well against English teams. City may win straight I know what I'm saying.
This is a big opportunity for Messi to show his mettle when PSG play Man City tonight UCL the match will live up to it expectation, the trio of Mbappe, Neymar and Messi attacking prowess is expected to be unleashed tonight, I don't know how Laporte, Walker and Rúben Dias will stop those guys, PSG played a draw in their last UCL thus this is a must win match for them to able to qualify for the next round, a loss or draw wouldn't be favorable for them.I think PSG will win this match and both team to score is sure for bettings.
Ajax are already dominating the match against Besiktas now and they are 1-0 ahead by Berghuis' goal. I wouldn't be surprised if the match ends for the big advantage of Ajax. They can destroy Besiktas with at least 3 or 4 goal difference I think. Shakhtar - Inter is also going on and I expect Inter to win this match no matter what. They need three points to pull themselves together after losing to Real Madrid.
This match is very important for Inter Milan. They were defeated in the previous match, could not gain any points. Even in this match, if they draw or lose points, going to the next round will be more difficult for them. So from this match, Inter Milan must get 3 points. Inter Milan is a stable team, it is a shame for them if they can't win against Shakhtar.
Last season, Inter was also in the group with Shakhtar, and if you remember, then both of their games ended in a draw. Let's see how these teams will play with each other this time. I assumed that the Sheriff would be the outsider of the group, but as we can see, the Sheriff has already taken the points from the Miner, which greatly complicated his exit from the group. If Shakhtar lose today to Inter, then for them the task of at least making it to the Europa League will be poorly achievable. Jump to:
