| UEFA Champions League |
The new season of the UEFA Champions League started last night. Real Madrid got off to a great start in the title fight by blowing away Celtic. PSG, who are looking forward to win the Champions League, defeated Juventus in their own field with Mbappe's double goals. On the other hand, Chelsea lost their first match against Dinamo Zagreb. Spanish giants Barcelona, English giants Liverpool and Italian giants Napoli are taking the field tonight in the fight for European football supremacy.
In the first match of the new season, Barcelona will host the Czech republican club Viktoria Plzen at their ground Spotify Nou Camp. Meanwhile, Liverpool and Napoli will meet in a high voltage match at the Diego Maradona Stadium. Both the matches will start at 1 pm
Barcelona last won the Champions League in the 2014-15 season. Since then, the Catalan club has not had a good time on the European stage. In the last season, they were eliminated from the group stage and had to play in the UEFA Europa League. Barcelona has gone through a very bad time with the loss of the team's biggest star, Lionel Messi, change of coach and deterioration of financial conditions. In the middle of the season, Barcelona brought their legend Xavi Hernandez back to the Nou Camp as the coach of the team. Under him, the team started to see the light after crossing all obstacles. The balance of the team is also quite good now with some good signings in the transfer market.
However, this year's Champions League journey will not be easy for Barcelona. Their partners in Group C are teams like Bayern Munich and Inter Milan. However, today, Barcelona will start their journey with a match against a relatively easy opponent, Victoria Plzen. Besides, the team is coming with easy victory in the match at their home ground. Earlier in the 2018-19 season, the two teams met in the group stage. Barcelona was the winning team in both matches.
Meanwhile, for the coach, it is also very important that everyone in the team is in form. Goalkeeper Lewandowski, who was fired from Bayern, seems to be scoring goals regularly. Brazilian winger Rafinha, who joined the team from Leeds, is also in great form. In addition, Xavi can also give rest to someone who plays regularly against easy opponents today.
On the other hand, English giants Liverpool and Italian giants Napoli are entering the field in another high-voltage match of the night. Currently, the time is not going very well for Liverpool. Jurgen Klopp's disciples could not start the Premier League as expected. The Allreds have not seen the face of victory in the last two matches of the league. Salah-Nunez will want to start the Champions League match with a win today.
Recent play in today's match means Liverpool should be ahead. But statistics will keep Napoli ahead. The previous four meetings between the two teams have resulted in a draw with Napoli winning 2 and Liverpool winning 1. However, after leaving behind the previous time of Napoli, the team has started to retreat from the giant title. Considering the overall aspect, the fans of the team will be optimistic about Liverpool's victory in today's match.
