A goal for Prague after only 2 minutes, very poor defending by Rapid even if you have to admit the cross was very well shot.

If Rapid manage to score soon, it could really be a game with a lot of goals. Rapid must/should now play openly for a goal and not on the counter-attack.

The atmosphere in the stadium is good and again it's nice to see the team being cheered on.

Unfortunately, today's champions league qualifying match did not interest me to watch it. I didn't actually watch the qualifying match for a long time and mostly watched from the group stage because it was much more exciting. If I want to bet, it seem that the H2H of the team that will compete is enough for me to decide which team I will choose as the winner. For that match, Rapid Wien had better stats than Sparta Prague, but they were unlucky with goals and fell behind early. 0-1 so far, and that could soon turn into 1-1.

Very nice goal by Knasmüller (Rapid), with so much feeling right into the cross corner. Unstoppable for the goalkeeper.

As I'm Austrian I hope Rapid score another goal, so the second leg will be interesting and Prague will have to play to win at home as the away goals have no effect on the result, so you have no advantage with an away goal.

I only watch the qualifying matches of teams that interest me, like Rapid Wien.

Edit:

2:1 for Rapid Wien another goal from Knasmüller

Of the games that are already set for the UEFA Champions League third qualifying round, who do you think will win:

Spartak Moskva (RUS) vs Benfica (POR)
Genk (BEL) vs Shakhtar Donetsk (UKR)

I'm sure that Shakhtar will win. As for the second match, it will be at least the level of the group stage - these two teams are really strong. As far as I know, things are not going very well in Spartak, but most likely in this confrontation it will be stronger. At least any other result other than victory will be considered a failure and the club's management will most likely take action against the head coach.

This round truly looks more difficult to predict and in fact the two games that have already started they are still 0-0,one game is 70 minutes and the other 25 minutes,I think this will change but the games of the last round had a bit more goals.Hopefully the other games will have more goals which I think it will be the case as Dinamo Zagreb,Celtic and Ferencvaros are stronger teams compared the opponents and they are playing at home which I believe they will net them wins today.This makes a good parlay although the odds are not that big.

Dinamo is having a lot of trouble with Omonia, as both teams are playing solid football, and it is still goalless on the halftime, IMO, @1.45 on Dinamo was low odd, x2 had better value prior to match

Ferencvaros is already 2:0 against Zalgiris, but that was widely expected

regarding Celtic, I am not trusting them at all, Danish team is far from great, but Celtic is also mediocre team for European cups, and they dominate domestic competition, but fail to play any role in the Europe, I am skipping this one

Previous round was a tad bit easier to predict, could barely find anything that i really like today, so here's my only 3 fold of the day which has CFR Cluj + Ferencvaros + Celtic 1X @1.93 ✓

If you trust enough CFR Cluj you can perhaps opt-out for the -1.5 ah given the difference in classes between these two teams.

Ferencvaros defeated Prishtina 3:0 and 3:1 in the previous round, however, if you look closely, 5 of those goals came late after the 70th-minute mark. Zalgiris allowed goals in both games against pure amateurs from Northern Ireland, i don't think they stand a chance against a much stronger team, the Hungarians will have no trouble in this one.

Celtic have failed to qualify for the Champions League group stages in the previous three editions, the match against Midtjylland won't be an easy one by no means, but i don't see them losing at home.

We have some Champions league qualifiers games today. And in this round some games looks not bad on paper, like Celtic - Midtjylland. My fe picks for tonight:
Celtic - Midtjylland BTTS @1.85
Lincoln Red Imps - CFR Cluj - over 2.5 @1.62
Rapid - Sparta - over 2.5 @1.77

Rapid - Sparta is match of the day for me and I expect lots of goals. I opted for both to score market
Cluj should win with couple of goals scored, same goes for Dinamo. I am not touching other games today.

I am also excited about the game, the first game after corona with spectators in the stadium, at Rapid is usually always a great atmosphere, should Rapid make it to the group stage (whether Champions or Europa League) I will probably buy a group stage subscription.

Champions League group stage I think for both teams for not possible, after this round waiting in the Champions league AS Monaco.

Why do you think that so many goals will fall? But I will definitely watch the game on TV.

The Celtic - Midtjylland match will be very interesting, two very strong middle peasants and the fate brought them together at such an early stage, it's a pity that one of them will have to out at this stage.

Both clubs are attacking type, it can be good entertainment football. In this pair, I'll probably give preference to Celtic. Although it is not clear how looks the clubs are now, in Scotland the championship has not yet started, and in Denmark the first round took place, in which Midtjylland was defeated, but perhaps they were just saving energy for the Champions League qualifier.

I wonder why the coefficients are so small? Do these teams have such a huge average performance to expose such odds on them from the bookmakers. I will not bet, but then I will check the result to see how reasonable these odds were. If the bookmakers are not mistaken, then the bet must work in at least one match.

Why do you think this Champions League is the last one? I hate this football bureaucratic mafia and would be glad if it were, but as I understand it, this is one of many lawsuits and in fact there will be many more lawsuits ahead. Hopefully in the near future we will see some more significant news regarding the Super League.

Don't worry, it looks like it's not official yet. The news from UEFA officially also I have not read it. From the news circulating, it is true that I read that Madrid is one of the founding clubs of the Super League, but during this EURO event I did not read any news about it.
Indeed if I read the Super League offered bigger prizes which resulted in some clubs being interested but also many dropping out in the end. I think this issue is a mission to criticize UEFA or a way to demand changes to the board or something else.

Zalgiris and Ludogorets were my only wins yesterday, both teams won but not in a very convincing way. I had sweat out the last minutes with Zalgiris playing with two red cards, thank god those Irish amateurs didn't score a second.

Here's one win from today's early matches:

https://i.ibb.co/5FKkpxQ/tasdhdfv.png[

I had no idea Vagner Love was playing for Kairat Almaty, hmm, dude has to be around 40 years old by now, some of you may remember him playing in the Champions League with CSKA Moscow back in the day, i believe he also won the UEFA Cup with them, damn that was a long time ago. He also scored Kairat's opening goal today.

Thoughts on the late game between Legia and Bodo/Glimt?

I watched Linfield - Zalgiris game and it was ridiculous to hear that even after 2 red cards Irish commentators were still complaining about referee Cheesy

. Now Zalgiris got Ferencvaros in next round - very difficult, but not impossible to beat.
Yeah, I remember Vagner Love, he was great in CSKA.And seems that even at such age, he is still good. Previous summer there was rumours that he may return to CSKA, but it didn't happened.
I had bet on Legia and watched game. They won confident and actually I expected something more from Bodo Glimt. Seems they aren't as good as they were last season.

Why do you think that ESL is better than UEFA? Yeah, UEFA isn't perfect, but do you really think that ESL project is good for European football?

Legia seems as good to proceed, but I would not bet on this match result, and Legia to go-through is too low
regarding Kairat, will be interesting they are now visiting Belgrade, to play with Red Star in next round, and they could always be trick to pass, since the travel to Kazakhstan is not easy, it is a long road, and especially with one week in between, and season not started yet in Serbia, this could be an issue
did not know for Love, but saw that he scored, there was some red cards in the end, probably some fight (haven't watch the match)

Just for fun: that moment when you have no clue about the teams playing Champions League qualifications and you bet on the winner by having a badge or not in Google/Sports table Tongue

Seriously, yesterday's odds are attractive and today aren't bad also, Baku @1.9, BTTS over 2 and Warszawa @1.6, BTTS @1.5, but honestly without watching the first leg at least it isn't clever to place bets randomly Undecided

Odds for Zalgiris is good, but they already have quite safe 3:1 win (especially considered that away goal rule is removed), so, win tonight isn't must have thing for them. I think I'' skip this game.

Call me stupid but I'm backing Alashkert to lose tonight, hopefully in the same way as Cluj last night.

1st in Premier League Armenia (and actually I do like betting on them) but they had to fight out a 2-2 draw the last leg, that gives minnows and back to back Welsh champions Nomads a big chance. 12/1, I like my odds. Wales vs Armenia come on;)

To be honest, I would be very happy if the Super League would somehow still come about. Not because it's good for football, because let's be honest, the Super League was only initiated because the top clubs want to earn even more money, but because it would be a slap in the face for UEFA. As you said, UEFA is also for me an institution that is rotten to the core, where it is no longer about doing the best for European football, but about making as much money as possible with football by whatever means. This became obvious again recently when UEFA insisted on making the stadiums as full as possible during EURO 2020, despite the spread of the delta variant.
I just can't see a Super League Happening in the near future. This decision of the court means nothing now that almost every team has said that they don't want be a part of a super league anymore.
