There are always very strong teams in the league. Real Madrid has always been very strong and has always been the biggest rival. From time to time, Atlético, Villarreal or other teams can also play quite well. But we all remember how excellent a team Barcelona was when playing Xavi a few years ago. I think he can create a team like the team at that time  Xavi has made a wonderful history with Barcelona during his time as a player. A beautiful start for Xavi during his time in charge of Barcelona, he was able to restore the tiki-taka style that had been lost in the Ronald Koeman era. Messi Xavi failed to win a trophy for Barcelona in his first season as a coach, but he is by no means a failure. Because when he returned to the Camp Nou, Barcelona was not in a good condition. Barcelona looks very active in looking for new players to strengthen the team next season so that Barcelona can again compete with Real Madrid, Atletico and Sevilla to become La Liga champions. Xavi's achievements with Barcelona this season are quite good. Even though he didn't manage to get 1 trophy but he has managed to lift Barcelona from adversity. I think if he coached Barcelona earlier, then Real Madrid would find a formidable competitor in the fight for the La Liga title. Everything has indeed passed and it can no longer be played back, but for the next season, I think Barcelona will come back with their confidence. I also think so, next season Barcelona will be very strong as contenders for the title, this season they only slumped at the start of the season and when Xavi came he was able to make a significant change for Barcelona much better. if this performance continues to be maintained then next season Barcelona will be very strong especially if Barcelona bring in several other potential players to look at next season. |

Several times I get information from the facebook homepage which sometimes appears, the information I get is about the new format changes that will be implemented in the 2024/2025 season, and it looks like this is official from UEFA which previously I thought was just a hoax or something like that. The first change is about increasing the number of contestants, from 32 to 36 and for the second change is not using the group stage. But they're going to have a competition format or something like what might be called a mini league or something like that, I haven't looked further either. Regarding this, I personally just hope that whatever format is used, at least the competition to enter the Champions League does not make it easy, because if it is made easy, the competition for Champions League tickets will no longer be competitive and exciting.
I don't think so, the news that is spreading at this time is still not confirmed, it seems like this is fake news, if the Champions League format is changed like that I think it will be less interesting even though people's assumptions are different but I don't expect it to happen. |

We'll see how Salernitana struggles to keep the chances of staying in Serie A first against Empoli this week. They must win because below them there are still those who are chasing and hoping for their position, namely Cagliari and Genoa. While Venezia seems to be the first team to be relegated following the opponent they will face is AS Roma.
If Salernitana wins this match, they will be very relieved, their opponent is not a very strong team and they have a chance to score points from this match. If they fail to score, they may sadly enter the relegation zone. According to the other teams in the relegation zone, Salernitana is the luckiest team because they will play against Udinese after this match, they can get points from both matches Salernitana are unbeaten in their last 5 matches, they are now playing really well to keep them out of the relegation zone. and the opponent they will face is not so strong if you look at Salernitana's performance lately I'm sure they will be able to win the match and they will fight for it considering they have to be able to secure themselves to stay in Serie A next season. |

Recently i had checked the odds for both of teams and this is interesting to know because seems most of bookmakers placed Frankfurt as the favourite and Rangers as the underdog and seems the odds has been determined according to the performance from them during this season that since group stage Frankfurt never been beaten for normal time game so that's why they are the favourite than Rangers
the bookie offers attractive offers. Frankfurt looks more promising than Rangers as most bookmakers analyze. but I'd bet otherwise. Rangers have an equal chance. this is a final match, I believe anything can happen. Even when the bookie makes a poorer offer for Rangers, it doesn't mean Rangers don't have quality. in the field will be very different. matches can give us surprising results. Luck that brought Frankfurt and Rangers to the final, initially these two teams were not among the favorites to be in the final, but all the doubts of observers and football lovers refuted. It is difficult to place a bet on these two teams, because guessing the final result between Frankfurt and Rangers is like chasing the Jackpot in a slot. Frankfurt, who failed to finish in the European zone, will try to win the Europa League in order to appear in Europe next season, Rangers also need this Trophy for their struggle during the group stage until the final match. it wasn't luck, no luck over and over again until they were able to make it to the final. these two teams are not favorites to be in the final but both teams are able to increase their confidence and play very well in defeating their opponents in order for them to be in the final. so this final will be very interesting, both teams have almost the same strength and it will be very difficult to predict who will be the champion. |

This is another final this season between Chelsea and Liverpool. Liverpool won the EFL Cup final after penalties. I believe that today we will also see a very even game. Chelsea will surely struggle to pay back for their recent defeat. However, I am betting on the victory of coach Klopp's team again.
very good betting options, I also bet on the same. at the moment Liverpool's game is very consistent and their ability is still above Chelsea, I think this will be their second trophy of the season. while Chelsea they have been very inconsistent this season especially seeing their performance in the last few games less than satisfactory. |

Manchester City are one step closer to the Premier League title, as long as they can secure full points in the remaining games, because Liverpool have a difference of 3 points from Manchester City, The only chance for Manchester City to secure a title this season, if this opportunity is not utilized properly by them, then for this season they have not won any titles, thus Pep Guardiola is considered a failure in managing Manchester City, even though they have good players this season.
Pep Guardiola will not put mud in his own face, the failure in the Champions League makes Manchester City officials little disappointed. Now Pep Guardiola will try to make to amend by winning the Premier League. Big victory over Wolverhampton brought Manchester City closer to the title, now three points away from Liverpool, Manchester City must put their full concentration on the last two games in order to end the season with a smile. it's their only chance to win a trophy this season, they won't be able to pass it with the quality they have I'm sure they can win the league title this season. only 2 games left this season and if you look at their last few games they are very on fire I think in the remaining 2 matches they will also do the same to ensure themselves as champions. |

Xavi is a very experienced and visionary coach. The players he has fielded this season have impressed us with their performances. Many people said Aubameyang was out of the field for a long time. He won't play well in Barcelona. But he is playing well in almost every match.
The Barcelona team has some minor problems. If Xavi can solve these, Barcelona will be a worthy contender for the title next season. Barcelona's defense is weak, they need a new experienced defender
I agree, they need some good defenders. Also, I think the team needs a good midfielder. Actually, the current roster is pretty good, but if this team wants to be the best in the world, there is a lot of development that needs to be improved. That's why they need to add a few people to their roster in this transfer period, they can find good players even if the budget is not too much There are enough talented players in Barcelona's midfield. But they are not experienced enough. And so I agree with you that Barcelona will need an experienced midfielder next season. Besides, Barcelona does not have enough funds now. So Xavi will definitely try to build a team at low cost. Mbappe or Haaland will try to get Barcelona in the team. But Barcelona may not be ready to spend a very large amount of money. with limited funds spent on player spending but Barcelona already have many players who can still compete with top teams, I think it will not be difficult for Xavi to start next season well and compete for the title, they just need a few extra players to fill the void, and I think the most important thing for next season is the defense. because this season the Barcelona defense is a little weak. maybe if they can bring in low quality players it will be very good for the team's performance next season. |

The final was good, in my subjective opinion Juventus looked better and they deserved to win. But these two dubious penalties ruined the whole game. In any case, congratulations Inter with winning the final! Inter had a good season and deserved trophies. For Juventus, the season turned out to be a complete failure, it’s good that at least they will play in the Champions League next season.
Inter Milan played more dominantly and although Inter Milan had trailed 2-1 but a goal from Calhanoglu forced Juventus to play until the extra time round until finally Inter Milan was able to score 2 more goals and make the score 4-2. I feel this is a very well deserved win for Inter Milan who have played well and consistently this season compared to Juventus. |

This Terra and UST fiasco.
This truly have brought the market down as start but they're not just the whole reason why the market is down. But also there are too many reasons that have been compiled altogether so the impact is totally huge.
Just think of this time that we've officially entered the bear market and you need to be more patient at this time and you should make your plans on what actions you'll do.
it's not just a bear market that caused almost all coin prices to fall but now the price of LUNA has fallen unnaturally, in 2 days the price of LUNA has fallen so deeply even now the price of LUNA coins is under $1. I think this will be a disaster for them. we don't know what the developers did as if they didn't care about the coin anymore so it could fall that deep. |

yes, that's true. Frankfurt did eliminate two of the most favorite teams in the Europa League. honestly, no one expected them to win against those two teams. and that made the claim stronger that a lot of people have been making about Frankfurt that they will be able to win the Europa League this year. If they can do that it will be really great to witness. but the other thing is Rangers are obviously not an easy opponent. It is going to be a great Europa League final and I believe both teams are going to score.
That's the point here, Frankfurt were underestimated in the Europa League. We never thought they will be able to defeat those two clubs especially Barcelona who failed to get well prepared with the intentions that it was going to be an easy winning for them. But to our greatest surprise Frankfurt knocked them out. They won and made their way to the finals. However, IMO I thinks Frankfurt is the favourite in winning the trophy. Although, the final will definitely be a tough match. the two teams in this final were teams that were not favored before, but by beating their toughest opponents they were able to be in the final of the Europa League this season, Frankfurt and Rangers quality are not much different and mentally and also their confidence is the same, because they both beat a great team to be in the final. I think it will be a very interesting final and very difficult to predict. |

We should not under estimate wolve because most of those small clubs that are not top 3 can perform wonderfully sometime and winning the big clubs, so Manchester City will have to be at their best form going forward if only their want to maintain their points till end of this season.
It was a narrow winning for Liverpool last night but thank goodness their we're able to add another goal in the second half which seal their winning.
Liverpool only managed to win narrowly but it was enough for them to keep their distance from Man City. but I think the competition will be over when I see Man City are very strong and I don't think they will lose in the remaining 2 games because Man City are only focused on the Premier League, this is the only prestigious trophy they are targeting this season. I have no doubts that Man City will be champions this season. |

Barcelona vs Celta Vigo only in the first half they performed optimally. While the second half they almost reduced the rhythm of the game. Especially after the extra time given 11 minutes. Unfortunately, there are no additional goals. Actually, Barcelona was able to add 1 more goal. De Jong came on to replace Auba who had shown an extraordinary game by contributing 2 goals for the umpteenth time at Barcelona. Victory II brought Barcelona locked in the second position and made a considerable distance from Sevilla.
Barcelona really performed well both first half and second half of the match to achieve the 3 points from Celta Vigo. Many people think the match will end up for the favour of Celta Vigo, because they achieved victory from their last match but Barcelona defeated them 3-1 for the favour of Barcelona. This match has really prove that Barcelona will finish well in this tournament because they have moved to second position in the la Liga league table which will really help them to have more confidence to play well in their remaining matches to achieve success through out the matches. only 2 games remaining for Barcelona and they are very safe to finish in 2nd place in the standings because the distance between Sevilla and 3rd place is now 3 points. the match against Celta Vigo Barcelona played by doing a lot of player rotation, in the match Barcelona made 5 substitutions, even so they still played consistently. Barcelona's performance has been very good indeed at the end of this season. |

Manchester city and Liverpool are the best teams in the world at the moment. Irrespective of what happened in that Champion's league tie between Manchester City and Real Madrid, City was far a better team but only lack mentality. Real Madrid might have shown strong mental strength knocking out strong opponents this season but Liverpool is stronger than those opponents mentally too. They too have players that have won this competition and the likes of Salah and Mane will be looking out to cause them problems.
I agree with you, the two teams has demonstrated well from the beginning of this tournament but Manchester city allowed Real Madrid to locked them out from the tournament. Real Madrid has really proven to the world that they are among the strong teams in this season with the new strategies they used to eliminated Manchester city in the second leg that surprised many people. I think, it will be difficult for Real Madrid to defeat Liverpool because Liverpool has professional strikers that know how to achieve victory goals from any match. To be the best on the European stage, you don't just need quality and consistent play, but mentality is really needed. no team can win the UCL with only money that buys a lot of star players. the mentality of the team was built not in a moment, the match between Man City and Real Madrid proved that. In terms of quality, Man City has been very good this season, but that alone is not enough to win the UCL. |

Roma, Fiorentina and Atalanta now have the same points but after my calculations it looks like something may have gone wrong or hasn't been updated. Because if I calculate the number of goals because these are the same points, in my calculations Atalanta should be in sixth place now, then behind Roma and Fiorentina. But the standings still show Roma, Fiorentina and Atalanta still in the same place as before.
this is the same points but with different rankings where AS Roma is in sixth place then followed by Fiorentina and Atalanta each one level below it, maybe AS Roma and Fiorentina are ahead head to head over Atalanta so the total goal difference doesn't count though Atalanta have a better goal difference than the two teams above them so Atalanta should be in 8th place, with 2 games remaining at this point still a chance to overtake each other for a European ticket next season where Atalanta vs. Milan and Roma vs. venezia and Sampdoria vs Fiorentina these 3 teams will be fighting desperately for points in the remaining two games of the season Atalanta will probably be the most difficult to maximize points in the remaining matches because they have to fight AC MIlan which of course AC MIlan will really need a win to keep securing the top of the standings. while AS Roma and Fiorentina have the same opportunity to finish in 6th place to secure a European ticket, while Lazio I think it is very safe to finish in 5th position, this has a 3 point advantage over Roma. |

When Tottenham are able to overcome Arsenal, there is great hope for Tottenham Hotspur to beat two more opponents in the rest of the competition, namely Burnley and Norwich, especially since Norwich City has been confirmed to be relegated next season. So it is very important for Tottenham to be able to get points against Arsenal and Antonio Conte definitely wants a positive result when he meets Arsenal.
It's a matter of Tottenham's struggle for the 4th place Arsenal are currently occupying so it's only natural that Tottenham will start trying to beat all three of their opponents at the end of the season. And the most important thing is to beat Arsenal because Tottenham themselves are still under Arsenal at the moment, and if Tottenham are able to win over Arsenal, then for Burnley and Norwich I think it will also be easier for Tottenham. Tottenham's match against Arsenal will be very fierce this is a derby match and fight for the 4th place in the standings to be able to get UCL tickets next season. I think it will not be easy for Tottenham even though they are playing at home especially now Arsenal are in good form in their last few matches . |

Liverpool will surprise Real Madrid in the final even though Real Madrid are more favored as their history in the UEFA Champions League stands out more than Liverpool.
Mohamed Salah in Liverpool's run in the UCL has not looked like Karim Benzema's role for Real Madrid. In this year's final, I believe Mo. Salah will destroy Carlo Ancelotti's dream in adding to Real Madrid's UCL trophy cabinet.
I also support Liverpool to destroy Madrid in the final. although in the history of their meeting in the Champions League final it was not so good for Liverpool. but I'm sure this time Liverpool will perform better. Madrid will not celebrate parties anymore. Liverpool have played more consistently and better this season than Real Madrid but I have little doubts for Liverpool to be champions, because Real Madrid are really very difficult to predict in the UCL this season, they have beaten 3 big teams Chelsea, PSG and also Man City by Their mentality is very strong on the European stage, maybe they will also do the same thing against Liverpool in this final. |

Roma - Feyenoord is the finale and I wonder what kind of a game we are going to watch. Roma seem to be one step ahead to me for now. This is not a big tournament for a team like Roma normally. But this is a great opportunity for them to win a title this season. By Mourinho's coming to the team, they have seemed to be performing better than the previous season. We will see how much they want to win this too. I'm trusting them about winning the game.
We agree that Roma should be able to win in this final, Feyenoord is not a decent opponent for Roma as you said Roma usually competes at a higher level like the European League or Champions League, with the victory here Roma can open up opportunities to compete in the European League next season without having to finish in the top 5 in the local league Roma has no other way they have to win. AS Roma coach Jose Mourinho certainly will not waste the opportunity to be able to make new history by being able to get this European trophy and of course the Roma players are in high confidence, on paper Roma will be able to become champions, I have no doubts about that. |

The finals between Liverpool and Real Madrid would be an interesting one as both teams have fought aggressively right from the group stages so I think both teams have earned a spot on the finals vying for the title of being the champions. Although I so desperately wanted to see a Liverpool- Manchester city finals. Disappointed but nevertheless excited and looking forward to an exciting UEFA Champions league finals
Whichever team competes in the Champions League final, of course, it will always be interesting, no matter which team competes because when that team makes it to the Champions League final, they are a great team which is definitely interesting to look forward to. But apart from that I basically expected PSG v Bayern Munich for the final but unfortunately both of them fell, especially about Bayern Munich being knocked out by an unseeded team. Yes, that is pro if only Liverpool and Manchester City faced in the finals of the Champions League. It was not like It wouldn't have been interesting but now it is a little more interesting for me because the teams from two different leagues are facing each other. I believe the playstyle of both these teams are very different from each other. but I have to say Liverpool has been performing quite convincingly in this Champions League and if you just look at the score we can also say that Real Madrid was also convincing but they did have some question marks in a lot of games. both of these are experienced teams on the European stage. and now what happens in the final is Real Madrid and Liverpool. we have to put Man City aside because they didn't deserve to be in the final until they lost to Real Madrid. on the European stage it is not only the quality of the game that is needed but mentality is also needed. UCL finals will certainly be different from domestic or other league matches, UCL finals with high tension will create an experienced team and a winning mentality that will be able to play comfortably, and I think that is in the Real Madrid team. |

I thought Man U would draw with Brighton after losing in the first half, but I never expected them to lose by such an embarrassing score... Now they have little chance of staying out of the relegation zone... If West Ham stay focused and win their remaining games, they could move Man U in the standings...
this is a very embarrassing defeat, I think after this defeat Manchester United will no longer be able to win in 1 game remaining this season, they will be very down. and it is very possible for West Ham to replace them in 6th position in the standings and get a ticket to the European League. I have hope for Manchester United to rise again. I think this season they are used to defeats like this. Manchester United still has one more hope this season to improve their position in the standings so that they can appear on the international scene next season even though it is not the Champions League, but I think the Europa League is enough for Manchester United. but 4 goals without reply is not normal for a club like Manchester United, they only have 1 game left and it will be against Crystal Palace, it will be very heavy for them and I think they will reap bad results again. Manchester United are now in 6th place in the standings with a difference of 6 points from West Ham who are in 7th place but West Ham still have 3 games remaining this season. it would be very possible for them to replace Manchester United in 6th place. |

Well, the team that made it against Barcelona will feel they are the ones destined to win Europa League now, since they took care of the main favorites and are now themselves the favorites in the final.
I feel like they will get more support to compared to Rangers, if we judge by how many of them filled out the stadium at Barcelona...
The Frankfurt coach must motivate his players to perform optimally in the final, beating Barcelona can be used as a moral boost so that players can improve the quality of their game on the pitch. Rangers are doing well so far, Frankfurt's players shouldn't compare their strength to Rangers, which Frankfurt players have to do beat Rangers as they have done to Barcelona. If they want to appear in European competition next season, there is no other choice for Frankfurt, they must win the Europa League title. No I don't think you can use a game before that as the boost, any team that does that is doomed to complacency. I think Pep or someone said you're only as good as your last game, and you're only rewarded for the next game, so everything that happened until now matters zero in the final. I might change my mind about support... I saw the Rangers aftermatch and it was one hour of celebrations. They might just drown out the Germans like this. all possibilities are still possible, now the two clubs who are in the final are those who are not in the lead. that way both teams will be very motivated and confident to be able to become champions. If you look at the Rangers and Frankfurt matches in the previous few matches, I don't think the quality of the game is far from the two teams. I think they still have the same chance of winning. if only rely on self-confidence and motivation, Rangers also experience the same thing. |
