The Champions League starts back tomorrow and it will be adopting a new format.
The Champions League will be expanding from 32 to 36 teams from this season, with all teams contained in a single table.
That means there will have more rounds of fixtures than before with 17 in total, including eight rounds of group games - running from 17 September until 29 January - and then an extra round before the last 16.
The top eight will go through to the last 16, while teams from ninth to 24th go into a new play-off round.

Cheers. I'll give you 20k of my winnings
Tough game for Liverpool. Sunday would have been a rest day, Monday travel day, Tues match day, so there is little time to try and sort out what went wrong on Saturday. I'll be happy with a draw.
MOTD for ch LG should create a bit more interest,wonder if BT/TNT will think about letting BBC show final somewhere live,like they did yrs ago on some platforms utube etc
liverpool are even money favs at milan which seems short to me. villa 1.71 at young boys
Looking at some of the antepost prices for the League Stage, it feels like a lot of teams have been priced up either on reputation or perceived weakness, rather than books doing a deeper dive into each clubs' respective fixtures and their likely range of points based on expected match odds.
just another way of engineering/reducing the possibility of so called elite teams been eliminated in a group of death.bad night at the office scenario, a 3rd ranked group side who might have squeezed through with say one shock away result will now need more than one shock result to progress
its crickets version of super 6.8 etc where England can lose to ire and Afghanistan for example and still qualify and win the cup
Not really, they’re saying 9 points should get you through, so a 3rd pot team can get through with 1 shock result as long as they beat their two 4th pot opponents, which they always had to do in the past also
Whatever happens I can't get round how we'll basically know the teams going through by November. There could be an awful to of dead rubbers, which it was designed to end but I just see potentially loads of them.
villa 1 up
liverpool ko 20.00 available at around evens

If they expand and tamper with the format much more it could become so boring that even BBC and ITV might be able to afford to show some games.

It's much better to finish Top 8 rather than 9th-24th, so there will be some incentive there at least.
shearer thinks l,pool were deservedly and well beaten by forest on Saturday, 
. filler waffle for the RA RA,S

I wish that cheerleading **** in the crowd would shut up. That bloody wailing is getting on my nerves. 
Liverpool game LIVE on Amazon Prime for anybody that didn`t know.
... Think Arsenal game on tomorrow is LIVE too.

that's what I'm watching on. A week's trial for 99p, wouldn't bother with it if I had to pay more.
Stuggart been all over Real this half. 5.0 DNB looks a very fair bet
good start by villa and liverpool, over to city and the gooners
6 favs sluiced up last night
one at evens and a couple around 4 to 5,
does anyone use THE FREEZE on a 5 team acca regularly and if so
how do you deploy it
what's the earliest you've deployed it
have you got 5+ acca,s up without you using your freeze ?
in retrospect I could have got a 5 acca up last night if I,d used the freeze and it was my biggest price team,I could and had about 15 mins to use it on EVERTON,but it was very early in the game

im on gooners ,city, dortmund and psg-- lucky 15 to a quid pays £47 with 365
Sportsbook going Haaland 2 shots on target and De Bruyne 1 shot on target boosted to 4.0
BTTS in all 4 matches, a long shot but worth a punt.
need the gooners to win tonight to make a small profit on my lucky 15.
city not winning costing me
city not winning costing me
might not br easy for gooners as from memory liverpool struggled against atalanta
they are a good team from what I saw in the Europa League final against Leverkusen.
Atalanta @ 4.3 is a decent bet imho, I couldn't resist.
Betting against Arsenal is a tough ask with their defence
yup going well just need madrid for the three timer
Feyenoord is normally a hotbed, surprised they've been battered.
Atalanta penalty missed... don't even concede with a penalty!
Trossard on now for Arsenal .... doesn't seem fair to have one of his family members refereeing the match
thanks Aspro -nice little treb that - Arsenal let me down for a better payout on my lucky 15.
both city and gooners let me down for a really nice payout
both city and gooners let me down for a really nice payout
The closest I ever came to 'two-from-each-section (14 picks)' back in the day was 13 and it was Arsenal, odds-on at home, that let me down for 1,700/1
indeed
its funny how certain teams tend to let you down on a betting basis. Sunderland and city tend to be my jinx teams. every time i back them they dont win.
i dont back city very often as they are invaraibly too short but when i do they blow it. i tend not to back sunderland no matter what and preston and the gooners are other teams who buck the trend when i back them . funny innit

West Ham for me, in the cups. Can't seem to ever get it right with them. Oh and also Liverpool for goals. Back them they have an off day, don't back them and they go berserk.
I can't really knock Arsenal though. They were away to Leeds (circa 2000) and the spreads were offering less than one Arsenal goal. Leeds were strong, but so were Arsenal and one goal looked a given. I bet £400 on this and Arsenal came away 4-0 winners... a pleasing result.
The aforementioned bet was only £1, but still sickening.

i remember i had a decent 5timer waiting on arsenal to beat hull some seasoms back in the prem . it was a saturday night match with arsenal at home. i think they lost 2-3 couldnt make it up
Arsenal not an easy team to back. Betting against Spurs (for a win/win situation) has been lucrative of late
matches 2 commence this evening and i have backed a five timer of city, barcelona. leverkuson, dortmund, inter
gl with your bets
gl with your bets
There should be plenty of goals for City tonight
PSG must be awful these days, this is just embarrassing really
Very professional performance by Arsenal, PSG supposedly one of Arsenal's toughest assignments in the league phase, swatted aside in the first half. Nice mix of piling on the pressure to secure game then confidence to sit back and defend to see out game.
