Man United through to the final then, very unconvincing but it doesn’t really matter how you get to a final, you just have to get there.

Man City weren’t great against Chelsea but admittedly they are a much tougher opponent than Coventry.

Coventry 8th in the Championship were able in the last 20 minutes of the game to get the draw against Manchester United then they were close to score before another attempt was ruled offside by the VAR. Few inches from passing Manchester United and gets to the final. At the end obviously the luck was on the side of Manchester United even though Casemiro missed the first penalty for United..
I find Manchester United performance at the end of the game very poor and such gameplay couldn't stand against Manchester City which are expected to win the Cup.

Ronaldo seems to be in the recovery stage and it is definitely not easy to continue playing at the age of 39 because he has to keep his body fit and have good stamina. What is clear is that this victory is still important even if he doesn't play and Sadio Mane has indeed proven to be one of the best former strikers ever. The goals he scored past several Al-Feiha players proved his quality and his finishing was also quite sharp even though he was starting to age.

Al-Nassr will not let the remaining matches go without a win and therefore they will not relax at all even though they have lost the opportunity to win the title. Providing consistent performances will certainly add to the same performance next season and that is what they need to maintain rather than feeling frustrated because they cannot win the Saudi league title.

Cristiano Ronaldo is getting older but if we compare him to other top players that retired at his age or even younger, Ronaldo is definitely fitter and better. I don't think he will continue playing for longer than two - three years, yet he is way useful than local and even many players in major European leagues.
Al-Nassr doesn't lack good forwarders and they have to count on themselves if they want to improve their stats.
Right now it is too late If I could say that about Al-Nassr and the Saudi Pro League title. Maybe next year but currently Al-Hilal are way better.

When we look at the teams that have not been eliminated, the strongest team right now seems to be Aston Villa. When we look at both their performance in the Premier League this season and their European matches, I see that there is no serious obstacle in front of them. I don't know if we will see a surprise result, I think Fiorentina and Aston Villa will play in the final match Smiley
I totally agree with your opinion about Aston Villa being one of the favourite teams to win Conference League this season, if not the most favourite one.
Aston Villa will face Olympiacos in the semifinal game and I expect them to pass. Olympiacos are barely moving from a step to another against teams that are weaker than Aston Villa.
The other semifinal match will be played between Fiorentina and Club Brugge. Well, at this point, I don't find Fiorentina way favourite honestly. Both teams are close to each other and the main difference is Serie A is superior than the Belgium one. Yet Brugge sometimes could be more surprising!

What about Georgia? Did someone expect this team to qualify for the upcoming Europs?

Eliminating Greece is a big achievement for a nation like Georgia which aren't known in football comparing to their rival.
Ukraine and Poland qualification are quite normal and could be understood but definitely Greece were seen to be favourite and the way they left was hard for them for sure.

Exactly. Because if we go by how the four teams have performed in the Europa League and their various Leagues, we will not forget to mention Atalanta and Bayern Leverkusen to reach the finals. Maybe the better team would win the Europa League Cup at the end of play.
For that season alone, I will pick Bayern Leverkusen to win because of how they have stayed unbeaten in their Bundesliga League and they are topping their league without a loss.
I will be giving my support to them to win the Europa because of how they have proven to be formidable since the start of this season.

Honestly I wouldn't pick Atalanta and their victory against Liverpool was very surprising. Atalanta best achievement was exactly this, eliminating Liverpool and giving Bayer Leverkusen an opportunity to win this league.
The funny part is Atalanta facing Marseille which isn't that top this season so an easy access for the finals for Atalanta. Bayer Leverkusen will have a hard match against Roma and the main advantage for Bayer Leverkusen is the fact that they won Bundesliga title so they are more concentrated on winning Europa League than Roma which is trying its best in Serie A too.

I do not expect Arsenal to put an extra ordinary effort in the match against Wolves. Mehn! This effort would have been nice and perfect if it was released during the match against Aston Villa. You needed to do everything possible when you are at the top and not when you live at the mercy of others or your success depends on the failure of another club.

If I have to be sincere with you, Arsenal has lost it. If any other thing happens now to favour them, it should be called a miracle. Let me see if Manchester City makes a small mistake. If they do, Liverpool might likely be the ones to explore the opportunity and not Arsenal.

Since Manchester City doesn't have a match these days in English Premier League then for sure either gunners or Liverpool will take temporary the league's first place.
Liverpool look favourite indeed comparing to Arsenal, yet the team are close to each others..
When it comes to Manchester City, they are quite exhausted by Real Madrid Champions League match and in less than 24 hours from now, they will face Chelsea in the semifinals of FA Cup

PSG was lucky because Borussia Dortmund was their opponent, if it had been Atletico Madrid, it would have been very difficult to go to the UCL final. Even so, PSG can't underestimate Borussia Dortmund, because sometimes Borussia Dortmund can produce unexpected results.

On the other side of the UCL match we'll also see Bayern Munich - Real Madrid, PSG fans hope that Bayern Munich will make it to the final, but is that possible considering that even Real Madrid can win against Manchester City who are more favored?

PSG are lucky indeed, they were lucky by facing the weakest teams among those present and even in the semifinals they won't face the hardest teams like Real Madrid or Bayern Munich.
PSG should now hope to see Real Madrid eliminated by Bayern Munich because Bayern are easier for them than Real and for once they could hope to get the Champions League title. Obviously they should not underestimate Borussia Dortmund Roll Eyes

Liverpool really needs to score at least 2 goals in this first half to still be alive in this game, else they will find it difficult to score in the second half and Atlanta may resort to going on defense come second half game, The very second opportunity that Liverpool got to score was missed by Mohammed Salah, watching the game so far, they aren't giving me the energy I want to see put in this game, despite continuing mounting of pressure on the opponent team 18 yards box.

Liverpool started the game with enthusiasm by scoring an early goal but here we are at the half time and the score didn't change, with Atalanta 0 - 1 Liverpool and Atalanta 3 - 1 Liverpool on aggregate. They need to rush more if they want to qualify while Atalanta needs to ruin the game to win..

In the other matches, Roma are comfy with the three goals advantage on aggregate. West Ham United trying to equalize Bayer Leverkusen. Marseille 0 - 0 Benfica for the moment.

Bayern Munich picked a ticket for Champions League semifinals after defeating Arsenal by one goal in Germany. The journey of Arteta wasn't successful this month in English Premier League nor in Champions League..
Manchester City and Real Madrid are still playing in the second extra time and unless a late goal, there will be penalties between the two.
I am wondering how lucky is PSG comparing to the others when you see them facing the second level teams if we could describe Barcelona and Dortmund like that comparing to poor Bayern, City and Real Madrid facing each others!

The league still have 7 matches remaining before ended and seems it's hard for Al Nassr to taking over first place from Al Hilal and of i am not mistaken mathematically Al Hilal only required 3 wins again to lock first place and became an the champion of this season and for Al Nassr unfortunately they have to lost from Al Hilal at Saudi Super Cup and because it's almost impossible to gets Saudi Pro League trophy then now Al Nassr last chance to gets the trophy only from King Cup but tomorrow Al Nassr will fight against Al Fayha
According to the head to head statistics Al Nassr is too strong for Al Fayha because from 5 latest meetings Al Nassr can win 4 times and 1 draw so these records is proven Al Nassr probably will gets easy win from Al Fayha and about squad condition i can see Al Nassr in the good shape because all of their players in the good fitness including Cristiano Ronaldo and Al Nassr win has odds @1.46 indeed this is low odds but i think it's easy money because big possibility Al Nassr will being an the winner of this match

Saudi King Cup of Champions will most likely be played between Al-Hilal and Al-Nassr again and Al-Hilal is expected to win another time in my opinion.
In this round of Saudi Pro League, Al-Hilal will have a bit difficult match against Al-Ahli comparing to Al-Nassr which will face Al Feiha.
Anyway, I expect both Al-Hilal and Al-Nassr teams to win their games.

A good performance from PSG and it seems this time they won the Champions League match without of having superstar players like Neymar or Messi to spend too much money for them which wi much better than the situation of PSG in the last season.
In fact, they got better teamwork with a better coach instead of spending money on expensive players and I think the reason for PSG beating Barcelona
However, they were lucky because Araújo's red card changed everything otherwise Barcelona could beat PSG.

PSG played well and managed to win against Barcelona but let's be honest, if PSG faced Real Madrid or Manchester United or even Arsenal in both legs, the result will be very different. Barcelona red card impacted the game a lot but it wouldn't be the only cause of the defeat. Barcelona is weaker than what used to be and the advantage they have in term of goal difference weren't used as it should be.
We will see the next team that PSG will face to get a better view whether they can play the final game or not.

I think there will be clubs from La Liga who will qualify for the UCL semi-finals. However, unfortunately, both Barcelona and Atletico Madrid failed in the second leg of the UCL match with an epic comeback by the opposing teams. especially Barcelona, this is really suffocating because they are leading first. However, it had to end tragically because they were only playing with 10 players. Yes, this season, Barcelona must end without a title.

There will not be any title for a team like Barcelona and they don't deserve any by the way. They already lost Supercopa against Real Madrid then Copa del Rey versus Athletic Bilbao and now Champions League against PSG which aren't any better than them and two goals behind on aggregate.
Xavi will leave the club and I wonder which coach they will select for the next season.
113  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: UEFA Champions League 2023/24 Season on: April 16, 2024, 10:53:48 PM
I knew the moment Barca got a red in that game,it was going to be difficult for them to qualify despite winning the first leg of the game.PSG kept on pressing hard to get the equaliser,untill they got it in the first half.Now they knew they had to score more goals to be able to eliminate Barca from the tournament,and they did exactly that.Now,both Athletico and Barca are out of the competition.Tomorrow,we will be watching Arsenal Vs Bayern,and Madrid vs Mancity.Two English teams in there,let's see the team that will qualify here.

Barcelona were two goals in advance of PSG on aggregate, although the red card and that up to the 40th minute were they started conceding goals and with Mbappe scoring, that game turned a nightmare for Barcelona.
Atletico Madrid, which ironically was also in advance on aggregate weren't lucky too with Borussia Dortmund scoring also 4 goals on their net.
With today's epic results, tomorrow's games which are already more hazardous, will be way difficult!
114  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Germany League - Bundesliga Prediction Thread on: April 15, 2024, 09:41:16 PM
That was expected due to their hard work and the outcome of their matches.
Congratulations to Bayer Leverkusen the Bundesliga title and also the record they are trying to grab by not losing locally and internationally for many successive rows.
Leverkusen now are a new champion of Bundesliga and they are one of very little clubs that can beat Bayern Munich in Germany and Bundesliga in last two decades. Usually, beating Bayern Munich in one season is already barely seen and beating Bayern Munich in two or three consecutive seasons is more barely seen.

Leverkusen will have massive task to defend their Bundesliga title next season and will have to play in Champions League that they are not familiar with.

Bayer Leverkusen mission to maintain the Bundesliga title is more complicated than winning it in fact. The problem is if the team will be able to keep its coach and main players and how much they are ready to spend to bring new top players to consolidate the squad.
Additionally, Champions League games are way harder than playing against Bayern Munich in Champions League. Teams like Real Madrid and Manchester City aren't easy opponents at all and it will be wise to schedule friendly games with them in the summer.
115  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: April 15, 2024, 09:36:31 PM

Regardless of their underperformance in the Champions League this season Inter had a good and fruitful season. They will be champions of the Seria A very soon since the gap between the club and the second-placed AC Milan is large. However, I have a lot of praise for Cagliari for the uncommon display in San Siro. They didn't give up but kept equalizing anytime the host went ahead with scoring goals.
For Cagliari now every point is important, they are very close to the relegation zone, and unlike Inter, points are much more important for them. Inter just needs to wait a few rounds and they will be champions, nothing will change that, and if Cagliari loses, they may face an undesirable situation. What do you think about Atalanta, after such a good game with Liverpool, will they have a chance to compete for the top 4? They have played two matches less than Bologna and if they win these matches they can get within 3 points of them, but of course these games need to be won first.

Inter Milan are almost champions and they need just to get a victory and a draw to win the title so they are not in hurry. Cagliari aren't far from the relegation zone and they have to collect as many points as possible.
Ironically this round, many teams in the bottom of the table were able to pick points from the top ranking teams including Inter, Milan, and Napoli.
Regarding Atalanta, I tend to think that Roma is the one that will pick a Champions league spot along with Inter and Milan. Juventus most likely will be able to maintain their position or at worst the 4th rank.

To be honest, I didn't watch this match, but I predict that Lyon will win the battle between these two teams. and yeah, Lyon beat Brest with a score of 4-3. automatically, Lyon rose to 7th place in the Ligue 1 table. This refers to the last goal scored by Lyon from the penalty spot. the Brest goalkeeper should not have made a fatal mistake, so the referee gave Lyon a prize which made them win this match.

For the ones who saw how bad Lyon performed in the first part of Ligue 1, I mean in 2023 then he would definitely back Brest which is sitting in the second spot.
If we analyse deeper the situation then we will see that Lyon made the best progress among all teams in Ligue 1, top 4 teams included. They won most of their matches and continue to climb in the ranking. Best they could do is to get to Europa League next season or at least Conference League..

Bayern Leverkusen became champions for the first time in their history.
They showed us very good and enjoyable games, which I think they deserved until the end.
Xabi Alonso is a really good coach and his players are also that good. I hope they win the European cup and celebrate this year with a double cup.

That was expected due to their hard work and the outcome of their matches.
Congratulations to Bayer Leverkusen the Bundesliga title and also the record they are trying to grab by not losing locally and internationally for many successive rows.
Bayern Munich staff, coach and players have to blame themselves for the defeat they got and try their chances in UEFA Champions League since it is all what left for them..

English Premier League is definitely the best and most exciting league in the world. Not only having many teams dominating the league at the same time but the close gap between them makes things crazier!
Manchester City weren't expected to end this round the first. Gunners were facing at home Astana Villa. Even though Aston Villa is a good team, yet losing by two goals to nothing at home was a bad thing for Arteta and his players.
Liverpool in the other hand were playing home too but against Crystal Palace which is a mild team.
EPL will continue to be intense until the end of the season Wink

I don't think if Barcelona or Real Madrid played with full power in these games we saw from them recently.

Indeed both teams didn't use their full power and avoiding unnecessary injuries before Champions League important matches is something very important for both Real Madrid and Barcelona.
It should be noted also that many times Barcelona win their games by few goals. The problem this time is that Cadiz is weak and might drop off from La Liga next year.
So far Atletico Madrid was the team that profited the most from this round since they advanced by three points, got closer from Girona and away from Athletic Bilbao which were unlucky against Villarreal and their injury time goal!

Today Bayer Leverkusen will face Bremen at home, after seeing Munich win in yesterday's match Bayer Leverkusen will definitely want to continue their winning record when they face Bremen later, they are not too tough an opponent for Bayer Leverkusen even though they are in the middle of the table and have the worst results what Bayer Leverkusen might achieve is a draw but I don't think that will happen when facing Bremen, but no one knows the surprise because we haven't seen Bayer Leverkusen defeat for the first time, who knows, the lower level teams will be able to give Bayer that surprise.

Bayer Leverkusen need to win this game to achieve two things: a record for not being defeated for long time and to grab the Bundesliga title from Bayern Munich which dominated it for so many years too.
Xabi Alonso could celebrate the Bundesliga title with his team and fans since today at home once they defeat Werder Bremen, let's not forget this important point Wink
