JAKARTA The 2022/2023 European Champions League group stage draw has been held. There are five interesting matches that must be watched by football fans.
The parent of European football held a group draw on Thursday, August 25 evening WIB. A total of 32 teams were divided into eight groups.
If you look at the draw results, there must have been a lot of dramas and high-intensity matches during the group stage matches. Especially in Group C which is filled by Bayern Munich, Barcelona, Inter Milan, and Viktoria Plzen.
Besides Group C, no less exciting matches are also in other groups. Here are five European Champions League group stage matches that must be watched.
Liverpool and Napoli have met in the group stage for the past five years. The two teams faced each other in the 2018/2019 and 2019/2020 seasons.
Interestingly, despite Liverpool's dominance under Jurgen Klopp, Napoli was able to get better results. Of their four meetings, Napoli managed to win twice and draw once.
Chelsea are relatively pleased with their European Champions League draw this season for joining RB Salzburg, Dinamo Zagreb, and AC Milan.
However, Thomas Tuchel's side must be aware of the Rossoneri's presence in their group. The Italian representative will definitely be a tough test for the Blues.
Both teams started this season with both unsatisfactory results. Chelsea only got four points from three matches in the English Premier League, while AC Milan got four points from two matches.
Erling Halaand certainly has mixed feelings about the draw. The reason is, the Norwegian international striker will face his former team.
Kedua klub telah bertemu empat kali di turnamen ini sebelumnya. Dari jumlah pertemuan itu, City menang dua kali dan draw sekali.
Their last match took place in the quarter-finals 2020/2021. At that time The Citizen won 4-2 on aggregate in two legs. Haaland was on the losing side at that time, but now his chances as a winner are much greater.
Until now Paris Saint-Germain are still trying to grab their first European Champions League trophy. This season they are among the favorites as champions.
However, the group stage will be a difficult test for them as Juventus are also in the same group. The two clubs have never met before in this competition so their duel is interesting.
Barcelona may not be happy with the draw results because Bayern Munich has always been their troubled team at this prestigious event.
Kedua klub telah bertemu 11 kali sebelumnya di kompetisi ini. Dari jumlah pertemuan itu, Die Roten tercatat menang delapan kali dan seris sekali.
The victory was included in the quarter-finals of the 2019/2020 season. At that time, Barcelona were beaten by the Bundesliga giant with a landslide score of 8-2.
