Today is what I think the greatest game of all Champions League season.I am really impressed to see Barcelona with an odd of 3.4 and I think only not intelligent people do not take advantage of such thing.The double chance is also a good 1.7 odd which I think is a sure win.

I know what youre talking about, but Bayern has been clicking on all Cylinders! They have been straight up fire! Of course your shouldnt count out Messi, but I just see Bayern too strong and see them showing some great gameplay today.

I myself will be on the over and Bayern AH as I dont see them losing.

My expectation and hope of Atletico Madrid qualifying in the Semi finals of UCL at the expence of RB Leipzig was dashed I never expect Atletico to crashed out at this stage based on their pedigree in all their European outings particularly eliminating Liverpool the defending champion in this year CL anyway congratulation to leipzig despite not fielding their potent striker Timo Werner who had been signed by chelsea this si a club established 11 years ago waxing stronger year in year out despite running the club with a small budget.

I never expected RB Leipzig to be able to beat Atletico Madrid and progress to the semi finals as Atletico Madrid have always been a strong team whenever they are playing in the Uefa Champions League, I guess Paris Saint Germain should not underestimate RB Leipzig when they play against them during the semi finals of the tournament.

It is going to be a very interesting match today. No result will come as a surprise. I am inclined to bet on the advance of Bayern Munich. Bayern has been in better shape than Barcelona recently. The snipers rivalry is also going to be interesting. Both Messi and Lewandowski have shown more than once that they can ensure victory for their team almost on their own. I believe that the winner of this match will be the main favorite to win the European Cup.

i am not so sure in Barcelona, and think that goals are the best bet for tonight, do not know what i will play at the moment, but thinking between o2.5 and o3.5 or both, on two bets, but i am more with Bayern tonight, think that the quotes are realistic, with Barcelona @3.4 and Bayern @2.05

I think that when you are quoting Barcelona at 3.4 is not that realistic but that is just my opinion though.I also think when these two teams play a lot of goals are usually produced so the over 2.5 goals is very likely to happen tonight.

Well, after Atletico managed to kick out Liverpool it was very surprising how poorly they played yesterday. At least for me. It seemed like they weren't giving 100%. Maybe because they though it's 'just' Leipzig? I don't know. João Félix was the only one who really wanted to win this time.

Leipzig showed some nice combinations but didn't really manage to create a lot of good chances. If they improve here, I can totally see them beating PSG, too. If Leipzig manages to move to the finals, I am sure Timo Werner regrets taking the early flight to London.

I think we have to be honest and say that Atletico had a lot of luck in the match against Liverpool but last night they were unlucky and lost.
It's football and a better team doesn't always win.
In the semifinals PSG has a historic opportunity to reach the finals against Leipzig and will be under a lot pressure.
The Leipzig players have nothing to loose in that match and will play with less pressure.
They are very good team and also have good chance to win.
I think that all matches until the end of competition will be very uncertain and that small details and luck will decide the winners.

did not expected that, but Leipzig kicked-out Atletico at the end, with two goals scored, and my bet gone with the wind
match was not what i expected to be, and Leipzig was better than i expected, while Atletico surprised me with their finish, when they should be the best in defense, in the end, congrats to Leipzig, will be a good match with PSG, with goals expected

i'm not surprising because
Lipsia have
58% ball possession
more shot in goal
more precision
more ball passes..

in short, he definitely played better, the statistics say this
I haven't seen the game

now nothing amazes me in football, a deserving team can lose the last 4 minutes

On the contrary I see Paris saint Germain reaching the final of the year UEFA champions league, Leipzig don't have what it takes to beat PSG, and this would be what the prayed for -meeting a Leipzig team rather than an althletico Madrid side- although ATM where poor yesterday but on their day the would cause more problems for PSG than Leipzig, now the Paris team can just hope if this year could be theirs

Second goal was lucky one for Leipzig, otherwise it would have been draw. The shot took a big deflection from Savic and Oblak already had jumped for the save. That totally went wrong for Atletico.

I am sure Simeone would be happy how his team had played but it just went a bit unlucky.

Not surprised at all. Leipzig has been known to attack while Atletico is more on the defensive side. Lots of star players mean nothing if you're just defending and aiming for a counter attack. From the stats alone you can tell that Leipzig is 'better'. Things might be different if ATM play an attacking football and press Leipzig like crazy.

No Kai Havert still can win,,, yes I guess this match took a lot of us by surprise. Leipzig is always better on paper but we all saw how they played in the normal Bundesliga and even they could not always beat a regular team. Atletico tactics work sometimes but here they prove they cannot last every game defending.

Yesterday the benefits of the UEFA champions league knockout being a one legged tie for the underdogs what shown/seen. Nothing should be taken away from Leipzig the controlled the score line -never went down to althletico Madrid- but I think second leg allows for reset and reform for teams, and this gives pressure to the underdogs team, we almost saw the same with Atalanta vs PSG but for a late come back, now Manchester city has to learn from this against Lyon.

A very defensive lineup from Simeone. Felix, Morata and Thomas are on bench. Costa alongside Anfield hero will start as the forwards but Leipzig specially need to look after Carrasco. A little space and he can beat the entire defensive line in single dribble.

I am rooting Atletico Madrid. Let 'em show why the Spanish football is best in Europe!

and ? was spanish football so good yesterday ? i think german football is good too.
and if bayern munich wins against barcelona today the german football is better represented
than the spanish football in the champions leaque Grin

Leipzig vs Atletico
Barcelona vs Bayern

Why do you think Leipzig can defeat Atletico, mate? I think Atletico should have a bigger chance of the match. If we look at the quality players, Atletico is still much better than Leipzig. While for the match Barcelona vs Bayern, it is actually unpredictable as both big teams with almost the same quality in their players. Although Bayern can win the match, I believe they won't be easy to win it. The match should be a tight match.

Ateltico is definitely the team with higher quality players and also more experience in UCL, but I still think Leipzig has a chance in this one. The fact that there is one leg being played and it's on neutral filed is advantageous for teams like Leipzig. The team with better performance during the day of the match is going to win. Honestly it could be any of them, it's not like Atletico is a big favorite or something.

Of course Atletico Madrid is much better in experience and quality than RB Leipzig. So I'm like most people will bet on Atletico's win.
Especially if you see Atletico Madrid's last 18 matches without defeat this makes me increasingly confident that Atletico will beat Leipzig
in the Champions League Quarter Finals.

As I said, it was anyone's game to win because of the fact that they are playing one single match and it's also in Lisbon with no spectators. It just happened that Leipzig was the better team yesterday, they had more chances and they won.

The same thing applies for Barcelona Bayern match. Both of the teams won easily their last match, and honestly I don't know why Bayern is such a big favorite in this one. I mean Barcelona odds are at 3,5 but I think it's going to be a close match with lots of goals being scored. Probably a 3-2 for either of these teams.

pathetico de Madrid getting KO'd by a team that's been in the Bundesliga for like 4 years...beyond embarrasing Roll Eyes

Well, I don't think so that loss against one of the best Bundesliga teams is something embarrasing. Hats off to Nagelsmann who did amazing job with Leipzig in these few years.
Atletico were favorites, but I wouldn't call their loss as surprise. It was battle of similar level teams and I think Leipzig were slightly better tonight.

To me Atletico's loss was not a surprise at all. They play rough and dirty football, so much simulation. Lots of teams have problems with that, but Leipzig's greatest strenght is the coach.

He is young and brave and demands the bravery from players and that was visible in this match too. Boys were not afraid in duels at all and didn't react on provocations. WIth mindset like that Simeone's dirty approach does not affect you that much.

I know this is more psychological, but that is equally important as tactics and strategy in football. What type of players you have and what you put in their head makes a lot of difference on the pitch.

I won't be surprised it they go through to finals with kind of approach.

Nobody wants to watch their boring football in the Semis and the Final. Diego Simeone's boring defensive strategy would have worked on a two legged tie.

Not all people think like you, bro. And not all people seems a defensive strategy as a problem. It is a part of the football match strategy and ever used by Inter to win treble winners. Well, a defensive strategy can't work effectively in all matches, there should be a weakness in that strategy. Maybe this time ATM isn't in their best performance, while Leipzig applies a better strategy. Also, their players can be more confident than ATM players.

I really agree that defensive strategy is not a problem, because not all teams have an attacking style. What is being done
Diego Simeone with his defensive strategy is right, RB Leipzig has a dangerous attack and counter attack. So I saw Atletico
Madrid's defeat was just unlucky, not because of a bad defensive strategy. Watch for the Leipzig winning goal scored by
Tyler Adams to be deflected before entering the goal.
