UEFA Champions League bold predictions: It's finally Man City's ... (CBSSports.com)

The Champions League is back for a competition unlike any other. The final year of the traditional group stage will see the six dramatic rounds squeezed ...

The former have the superior recent pedigree in Europe and any team that have beaten Borussia Dortmund, RB Leipzig and PSV in recent months should welcome their opponents to Ibrox full of belief. He might only have moved to Portugal at the start of this season, but, if his statistics are in any way reflective of his talent, it could be a matter of months rather than years until the Premier League clubs that have been tracking him make the plunge. With RB Leipzig struggling under Domenico Tedesco and Ukrainian side Shakhtar Donetsk in an unknowable position while playing their home matches in Poland, there would appear to be a very real prospect that Ange Postecoglu's side can actually make the round of 16. When a string of former players are praising not just his talent but his character -- former Gers defender Craig Moore hailed "his desire to get on the ball and make things happen" -- you can feel confident he won't be overawed by the tests that will come against Ajax, Liverpool and Napoli. On the basis that I expect Haaland and his team mates to be involved in the competition until later than the holders it's the Norwegian that is worth backing. The Bundesliga champions have wobbled in recent weeks; such is the nature of this condensed schedule that one dip in form could be critical. Madrid have perhaps the only group that is as inviting as City's, and there is no question that Carlo Ancelotti's side are set up to funnel chances towards Benzema. Indeed, with the exception of central midfield, Inter might just have the quality across the squad to weather injuries in plenty of positions. They have struggled against top tier Serie A opposition so far this season but if this becomes just a slightly improved version of the team that so tested Liverpool in last season's knockout stages, they could achieve a great deal in Europe. But if they were to escape there is plenty in this squad that suggests it could spring a surprise or two. Yes they may seem to have their particular hang-ups around this competition, but they also have been one of the Champions League's most consistent clubs. The final year of the traditional group stage will see the six dramatic rounds squeezed into less than two months, making room for the Qatar World Cup in a season that will ask more of players than any before.

We will accept the fight and the challenge and then we can also have the belief and trust we are able to win. I was happy the referee got the chance to have a review of the situation on the pitch then it is his decision. We are ourselves in a moment where we need to improve, we are not fully happy with the results, with our performances. We are very aware what the challenge is to play in a first match away in a group stage. It’s on us to take a decision on how we manage the minutes. There’s a lot to learn from him and a lot to come. We are happy to have a key player with us for so many years.” It’s on us to find a solution if he comes from the bench or starts.” It’s a pleasure to be coach of him, for everybody to be his teammate. It was the moment to give him a break instead of putting him on the bench and having the travel issues. “We had the opportunity to take everyone who was in training and available to Zagreb to do our last training. “We decided with Thiago that he will have a break from the travelling and the stress after playing every minute so far in very intense matches.

Champions League: Ambitious Osimhen's tussle with Salah leads ... (Goal.com)

Not long has passed since Real Madrid were celebrating in Paris at Liverpool's expense, ending the Reds' dream of a seventh European crown.

In the other game, Franck Kessie could make his European debut for Barca against a Viktoria Plzen side predicted to end fourth in the draw. The tenacious Nigeria international can be a force on his day but an absence of goals in the last three Serie A games means the young frontman is not firing on all cylinders at the moment. Watch this space. Group B pits Atletico Madrid with Porto yet again with critics probably recollecting last season’s encounters that produced three dismissals. The other fixture in Group A sees Calvin Bassey do battle with old friends when Ajax host Rangers on their first return to the Champions League in 12 years, with Fashion Sakala likely to be in the ‘Gers squad for the fixture. This has not been due to a dearth of chances, though, but rather a drop-off in the Super Eagle’s quality in front of goal against Lecce and Lazio and having a goal at Fiorentina chalked off.

UEFA Champions League: Group stage's most indispensable ... (CBSSports.com)

Robert Lewandowski may raise Barcelona's ceiling but Busquets raises their floor. As Group C shapes up as a group of death featuring Bayern Munich, Inter Milan, ...

With five goals under his belt in all competitions, Nkunku will look to prey on Celtic and Shakhtar Donetsk's defenses to make it to the knockout stages. The heart and soul of the squad, Pepe's combativeness may go over the top at times, but it will also push Porto to punch above their weight in Champions League. With three goals and one assist in Bundesliga play this season, Kamada could be in the middle of a breakout season at an important time after the club lost significant depth this summer. After winning Europa League last season, Kamada and Frankfurt will have a tall task in Champions League but if Kamada can bring his European form from last season that saw him score five goals and assist one more, Frankfurt's chances of making it through the group stage would rise significantly. Flexibility is why Bayern Munich hasn't missed Robert Lewandowski so far this season and he'll even have the added bonus of getting to face off against the player that he replaced when Bayern meets Barcelona during the group stage. While Ajax were chasing him on deadline day, Vlachodimos is still with Benfica and will need to put in a similar performance if they're going to make it to the knockout stages again. If things get wild enough during the group stage, don't count Dinamo out as a dark horse side to make the knockouts. As Group C shapes up as a group of death featuring Bayern Munich, Inter Milan, and Viktoria Plzen, there will be fine margins between a team making it to the knockout stages or heading to Europa League. I say only as that return for would be great for most players, but when Salah scored 23 and assisted 13 more goals last season, he's in a different stratosphere. The departures of club legends Dries Mertens and Lorenzo Insigne mean the team is now built around him. James can lock up a team's best winger -- which will be important facing players like AC Milan's Rafael Leao -- while also linking up with Raheem Sterling to pace the attack. Out of everyone on Chelsea's roster, James is the one player whose absence for any reason could see them crash out of the group stage.

Guardiola may have to abandon preferred Champions League tactic ... (Manchester Evening News)

Manchester City travel to Spain this week to take on Sevilla in their opening Champions League group game at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan.

Guardiola is battling various fitness concerns within his squad, and he will be keen at some point to rest some of his key players - like Erling Haaland - so they don't get overworked too early in the season. However, the immediate fixture list might provide an opportunity to start some of that rotation now with a view to preserving his fit players for as long as possible. A home game against Tottenham in the Premier League will be extremely difficult on Saturday, as will the visit of Borussia Dortmund next week. Still, they will relish the tag of being underdogs and boast some familiar names to Champions League viewers. Sevilla are Europa League experts, although have struggled to truly replicate their success in that competition to the Champions League. A secondary target that he often triumphs is qualification for the knockout stages of the

The UEFA Champions League will be split into a sprint and a marathon due to the FIFA World Cup in Qatar.

Even in a normal season, when the Champions League round-of-16 pairings would be made in mid-December, club executives at the draw at UEFA headquarters would refuse to crow about being paired with an opponent then under-achieving domestically. The first trading period after a World Cup often is fueled by demand for less-heralded players who stood out on the global stage. For teams off to a poor start in domestic leagues, the Champions League offers no respite with two games by Sept.

Which is the Hardest Champions League Group? | The Analyst (The Analyst)

By using the latest edition of the Stats Perform club Power Rankings, we're able to determine which of the UEFA Champions League 2022-23 groups are the ...

The Spanish Giants are ranked fourth in the world overall in our rankings, and the next-highest team in their group, RB Leipzig, are down in 25th in the model. The Power Rankings machine has the Austrian champions as the 15th highest-ranked side in the world, just one spot above Spurs and ahead of the likes of Juventus, Napoli, Sevilla and even Milan themselves. Similarly, PSG are by far and away the strongest team in their group, and they’ll expect to qualify at a canter. Their power ranking score of 85.7 is the lowest in Group D, and actually the eighth lowest in the overall UCL draw. Celtic, winners of the European Cup in 1967, will be under immense pressure to get out of this draw, with them ranked as the lowest team in Group F. On the flip side, Tottenham’s Group D has the lowest average power ranking across the four teams of 89.3. Rangers are in the group stage for the first time in 12 years after overcoming PSV Eindhoven, and will be a huge test, particular at Ibrox. It’s a group that contains a fellow top ten team in Ajax (8th overall) and Napoli have started extremely well in Serie A this season. Spurs are actually the highest ranked side in this group (14th overall in the world) while Eintracht Frankfurt, who are the top seeded team, are actually ranked as the weakest. You’ve got to really feel for Viktoria Plzeň here, who are the models’ 62nd ranked team in the world being drawn in with the big boys. But the ‘Group of Death’™ looks like Group C. To add insult to injury, Viktoria Plzeň aren’t even the ‘weakest’ team in the draw overall.

Man City press conference LIVE (Manchester Evening News)

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola will be speaking to the media this evening ahead of the Blues' Champions League tie at Sevilla on Tuesday night.

I’m excited about playing in a new competition, one we have earned the right to be in for the third successive year, against an exceptional team as City are, this gives us great excitement. We are playing against a rival of a very high level, they are among the best teams in the world, more so because of the new option they have in Haaland, which makes them more complete, but we are concentrating on ourselves. We know his goals but he wants to improve in the game. Guardiola should be with us in around half an hour to speak to the press. We know the player he is, not just in the Champions League but how he plays. Sevilla have a great squad and we will have to be good to beat them. We start this run and it’s the moment you have to take care more and balance everything and give everything. Every three days is normal, I don’t know if it’s the best for players but we have to adapt. We’ve done great games since we start, we have to fix a little bit. We try and do a good game and try to do three points. This is the first match of group stage and it’s important to start well. The club moved quick to bring in another player in this positions.
