CL game 8: Barca - Copenhagen

[JamDav1982]

Win will most likely be enough but will scud them and wont even be in doubt if get top 8 or not early doors.

Think we need to rest Raphinha for this one. This is a game for Rashford. He should be fully rested. Hasn't played for a while.

 

[Barcaman]

Also, other teams equal on points with us: noone says Chelsea will win at Napoli and PSG and Newcastle play against each other so we're guaranteed to go ahead one of them.

 

[JamDav1982]

No need to rest Raphinha.

 

[Barcaman]

And also (promise the last): no guarantees Tottenham wins in Frankfurt and they have to if they are to be ahead of us.

1-0 is 90% enough for us. Big win is a guaranteed direct qualification.

 

[JamDav1982]

Would be expecting Barca to in this one 3-0 fairly easily and it to be more.

City about the main one that could chase the score obviously.

 

[khaled_a_d]

This is completely untrue.

Barca needs to win, ideally by at least a few goals difference and Chelsea to not win and at least one form PSG/Newcastle to draw or lose and also City, Sporting, Atalanta, Atletico to not win with too big of a goal margin.

They are playing each other.

A win takes us to top 8 assuming no one from behind leap frog us. City, Sporting and Atletico who have close to our goal difference, but have tougher games.

Atlanta needs to outscore us by 5 goals in order to take over. I don't think they are a threat.

If PSG & Newcastle ends up with draw, then a fairly big win could take us to 6th place even.

 

[JamDav1982]

Barca 1.14 to make top 8.

Imagine Flick when told his team has to win by big margin

Expect formation only joan in defense

I really think we won't have problems

Reason more to play both Roony and Lamine, Olmo in deeper role in absence of Frenkie/Pedri.

 

[Andresito]

Don't think Flick will go guns blazing from start. First objective is to win, goals will come. Rarely ends well when team is desperate to score goals. Just let it come naturally without trying to force things.

Ferran will probably start as striker as he was completely rested. LW Rashy would be nice, guy needs playing time. Yamal on right, Fermin in the middle. This offense should be enough to eat Copenhagen.

Ferran was injured
