right now we are favorites

I dont see that as a temp ban from the admin, but a personal restriction from posting on the forum for a week. Like a personal challenge.

Or a signature, yes. That is WAY more humiliating.

Come on man! Don’t be a spoil sport

It is all voluntary and the ban only lasts for a week. It’s not like I’m proposing month long bets! Also even if participation was somehow mandatory, you’d still have half of the members here who win the bet

This is about users who talk big and make bold predictions to put their rep on the line and I already see many of the doomsday prophets & ultra optimists chickening out of this bet.

BTW Respect to Zozon and DiegoF (whom I’ve seen be optimistic about this tie from Day One) for their participation and putting your rep on the line for what you believe in

EDIT: Some users here (like myself) have never had an avatar or signature. So those bets of having disgusting avi’s or sigs for a week won’t really affect guys like me.

We need to win this more than ever now.

I’ll be objective in my assessment of why I can see Liverpool qualifying on away goals.

1. Liverpool have been a defensive rock this season with Van Dijk at CB, Alisson in goal and Fabinho as DM. They don’t lose games because they are just too sound defensively. Yes they did lose all away CL games last year but as everyone knows it’s recent form that counts and Liverpool have kept many clean sheets in 2019. I can see Bayern scoring One goal against that Liverpool defense because of home advantage and if we have Robben and Coman available as the wingers. However, I just cannot see that Liverpool defense letting in 2-3 goals.

2. Bayern’s defense has been unable to keep clean sheets all season and although the defense was 10/10 at Anfield, I cannot see that defensive performance being replicated. The Salah-Mane-Firmino trio has been quiet recently (apart from Watford) and I think they have too much quality to not score at least one.

3. Given we’ll be at home and try to play positively. I can see us play with the ultra high line and too many sideways and backwards passing. This plays into Liverpool’s game plan with the high pressing and exploiting space behind the defense with their super pacy wingers.

I can see this ending in a 1-1 draw with a defeat possible in the dying minutes of the game when Bayern commit all men forward in the desperate search for the winner.

I’ll be more than happy to eat my words but that’s how I realistically see this one playing out.
