PSG vs Bayer Leverkusen Champions League Soccer 2014

Catarí project billionaire Paris Saint- Germain is accused of not facing great duels , given the great distance that separates it from its French rivals, which gives the match against Bayer Leverkusen character revalidation for a club willing to grow.

Laurent Blanc 's team , that much is the Swedish Zlatan Ibrahimovic, performance has dropped somewhat , but even at half throttle is enough to lead a championship in Monaco that only seems able to stand up weight.

If the imperial PSG showed at the end of 2013 , in the current year has shown his human side , granted two draws and a defeat that left him out of the French Cup . But even these concessions have so far limited sense of power and reliability.

Just know if catarí project formed the basis for the book , shows the same strength in the Champions League and in duels a coin , where the experience is as important as quality.

Most players faced last year for the first time the Champions League and in almost no time , now rebuild it with the seal of favorites.

Without the Uruguayan Edison Cavani , injured, the team loses a major offensive asset, the most expensive signing in the history of French football , author of thirteen league goals and four in the preliminary stage of the Champions League .

His place will be occupied by an Argentine , either by Javier Pastore , who has raised his level of play in recent weeks and appears as a clear commitment Blanc or by Ezequiel Lavezzi , describing the opposite path , somewhat blurred as 2014 will .

The rest of the team will be the gala , with a great defense led by Thiago Silva, center field with very complementary Verratti , Thiago Motta and Matuidi and Brazilian Lucas as the third man complement attack and Ibra .

In the last seven official matches , Leverkusen has lost five , the last at home to Schalke 1-2 , so it can be said that the second round of the Champions League will arrive late to a team of aspirin .

However, the expected Leverkusen despite the clear favoritism - PSG- out of the slump and regain effectiveness he showed in the first half of the season.

The recipe to try to cause an upset against PSG has to do primarily with the defensive work and the use of counterattack opportunities by taking advantage of the speed of Sidney Sam .

Man City vs Barcelona Champions League February 18, 2014

Manchester City and Barcelona will meet at the Etihad Stadium star in the knockout stages of the Champions League , a confrontation that may mark the future of both teams this season tie.

They are two of the fittest teams from Europe, the scorers and many points of connection with each other , in the field and also in the box.At the club everyone knows what team is playing . The big moment arrives and makes a good club. Ghosts away after accumulated against Athletic Club doubt the Levante or Valencia , the team of ' Tata ' appears to be in the best time just as it begins to take shape the future of this season.

The fabulous fitness of Iniesta 's imbalance invite a schema change .

The best version of Barca this season has seen four midfielders , the reference in front of Messi and an asymmetric drawing from the side , with Pedro or Alexis. That's the only question that could have Martino .A back four and a scheme next to the classic 4-3-3 to 4-4-2 . Busquets is the closest to the central point and Cesc playing closer to Messi. Xavi , who will return after recovering from an overload in the soleus , and Iniesta will be the architects of the Barca football.

Messi is undisputed and lack closing eleven with the presence of Pedro or Alexis. Either provide pressure on the first line and subsequent imbalance. Both are in a good scorer and decision time is Martino .

The City had two games without a goal , against lowly Norwich ( 0-0 ) and against Chelsea , who took the three points of Manchester two weeks ( 0-1 ) ago.

The win against Mourinho on Saturday gave confidence to City , who had finished a meeting with the score to zero since September and in the previous seven games to defeat the " blues " had 29 goals .
