Die Meister, Les Bestien, Les Grandes Équipes; THE CHAMPIONS!!! : Accumulator Tip for December 09

UEFA Champions League drama is once again around the corner, and Telecomasia publishes three top games slated for the ninth of December, 2025.

Recall that FIFA now employs a table ranking format, which replaces traditional teams with a single league phase (kind of) where 36 teams compete against eight different opponents, four home and four away, with the best sixteen teams qualifying for the Round of 16.

Barcelona plays against Eintracht Frankfurt, Internazionale Milano locks horns with Liverpool, and Atalanta plays against Chelsea Football Club ahead of the sixth of eight slated matchdays.

Fellas, these are the champions.

FC Barcelona (Spain) vs Eintracht Frankfurt (Germany)

FC Barcelona UEFA Form: WLWDL

Barca’s UEFA Position: 18th

Eintracht Frankfurt UEFA Form: WLLDL

Frankfurt’s UEFA Position: 28th

FC Barcelona will play their sixth UEFA Champions League group stage match against Eintracht Frankfurt at the Nou Camp, with high anticipation of victory after a record of inconsistency over the last five appearances. Previous records show that they have never met in the UEFA Champions League, but have had two previous meetings in the Europa League, with one win for the Culers.

In the UCL, Los Blaugrana opened with a graceful 2-1 away victory over English side Newcastle United, but lost their second matchup against Paris Saint-Germain. A heavy 6-1 victory over Greek locals Olympiacos saw them win their third game, heightening the anticipation for their fourth game against Belgian side Club Brugge, a six-goal thriller that ended in a 3-3 parity. The dip came in their fifth game against England Blues, in the 3-0 full-time defeat that plunged them to their current spot, the eighteenth.

Karma paid the Germans from Frankfurt for their opening 5-1 victory over Galatasaray twice; in the second match against Atletico Madrid and the third match against Atalanta - all of which ended in 5-1 defeats. The fourth game against Napoli ended in a goalless draw, while they bit the dust in the fifth game against Atlanta. Currently, they have one win, three losses, and one stalemate in the last five league games.

Due to the recent humiliation against the Chelsea football club, which exposed all lapses, I expect Hansi Flick’s squadron to go into this game gung-ho. Besides, home-field advantage and the desperation to return to the top sixteen spots loom over the Culers, who were piss-poor in their last game. Any outcome other than victory for the hosts would be considered outrageous, but for safety, we will wager on the most pressing deficit of the Culers, goals.

Wager on at least four goals at the Nou Camp.

Bet: O 3.5

Inter Milan (Italy) vs Liverpool FC (England)

Inter Milan UEFA Form: WWWWL

Inter Milan Position: 4th

Liverpool UEFA Form: WLWWL

Liverpool Position: 13th

In search of victory points, Inter Milan squares off against Liverpool Reds ahead of the sixth matchday of the UEFA Champions League. Head-to-head statistics show that they have met four times, with Liverpool winning thrice and Inter Milan winning once.

The Nerazzuri have a near-perfect record in the UEFA Champions League, with four wins and one loss in five recent games. The away 2-0 winning opener against Ajax made things easy for the next 3-0 home victory against Salvia Praha, then a 4-0 away win against Union Saint Gilliose made it a perfect hat-trick, which was buffed in the fourth pairing against Kairat, a game that ended in a 4-1 scoreline. The Blues tasted the ashy taste of loss for the first time in the fifth game against Atletico Madrid, which ended in a 2-1 loss. They have scored twelve goals in five games and conceded three, compiling twelve points and staying rooted in the fourth position.

In what looks to be another test of character for Arne Slot, Liverpool’s manager, who has three Champions League victories under his belt in five games, the Reds will play against one of the best teams in Europe to prove their qualification mettle for the Round of 16. Liverpool opened with a 3-2 victory against Atletico Madrid at Anfield, before a slim 1-0 loss against Galatasaray awakened them to the reality of defeat for the first time. A comeback performance in the third game saw them write their names on the walls of the Deutsche Bank Park in a 5-1 victory. Game 4 saw them win narrowly in the 1-0 steal against Los Blancos, before losing 4-1 to the Netherlands side, PSV Eindhoven.

I expect the two sides to deliver their best today, and while Liverpool is not favoured for victory, they will likely register a goal. A BTTS-YES looks like the safest prediction for this game.

Bet: BTTS - YES

Atalanta (Italy)vs Chelsea FC (England)

Atalanta Form: LWDWW

Chelsea FC Form: LWWDW

Atalanta will play against Chelsea at the New Balance Arena ahead of the sixth round of the UEFA Champions League. Atlanta and Chelsea have ten points each from five matches, but the goal difference criterion favours the Blues, who have a 12:6 statistic as against the hosts, who have 6:5.

Atalanta launched their campaign with a frustrating 4-1 defeat against Paris Saint-Germain, a game that triggered survival mode against Belgian rivals Club Brugge in the second round, which went their way after a 2-1 scoreline ensued at full-time. Victory was unattainable against Slavia Prague in the third round, which ended on a goalless note, before the 3-0 win against Eintracht Frankfurt in the fifth match. So far, they have accrued ten points from three wins, one loss, and one stalemate in five matches.

The Blues had a slow start to the UEFA Champions League, with an opening 3-1 loss on the road, on a trip to the Allianz Arena. The second game against Portuguese side Benfica was a struggle, but a lone goal was all it took to set sail. They were easily the better side against Ajax in the third round, beating their opponents 5-1 at full-time. They struggled for a point in the 3-3 tie in the fourth match against the Azerbaijan side, FK Qarabag, before nailing Spanish giants FC Barcelona in a well-deserved 3-0 victory.

I expect at least three goals in this game.

Bet: O 2.5
