⚽UEFA Europa League Discussion Thread -- 2021/22 Winners: Eintracht Frankfurt!

[LTU_btc]

I am going for Wolves.They are playing great offensive football so Wolves to qualify
Rangers-Legia it can be interesting game.First leg was 0-0. Rangers looks favorite but Legia has pretty good defense .So if Legia will be able to score then we can have such a surprise

I will go for Rangers qualifying especially since they are playing at home, the last they lost at home in all competition was when they faced Aberdeen in the Scottish Cup Quarter Final on the 12 of March 2019. I am also tipping Wolves on qualifying as well.

For Rangers it will be tough match. I pick under 2.5 goals for this game, because Legia have awful offence, but their defence is solid and we can't expect that Rangers can score a lot.
Other my picks tonight is Vitoria Guimaraes, Eintracht and Wolves wins.

Picking under 2.5 goals Rangers vs Legia is very logical. I'm actually quite more interested in Wolves vs Torino matchup and Frankfurt vs Strasbourg.

As for Wolves vs Torino; I'm predicting another goals galore here, and both team to score would be my bet. Although, I think Wolves will eventually qualify.

Frankfurt vs Strasbourg; I think Frankfurt will have another hard time tonight, but I'm going with under 2.5 goals.

I am placing a live bet in PAOK - Slovan match, for PAOK scoring the first goal in the game.
It is a fair bet considering that they have the ball possession and they have some scoring opportunities all ready.

EDIT: So unlucky... A few minutes after placing the bet Slovan scored...

[buwaytress]

@Naida now that's what I call unlucky. But I hardly ever place live bets because I'm never sure what I'm watching is really really live haha.

But I got a ML on Bratislava so I'm very happy they just scored 2-2

My 2 underdog picks at $5 each:
Bratislava 11/1
Suduva at 9/1

If even 1 wins I'm happy!

@Harko: I'm going to see how these matches about to finish turn out and if I lose both my bets, I'll probably watch Wolves and parlay with Rangers.

[LTU_btc]

Well, probably wecan say that there is no big sensations tonight, all favorites reached group stage. One interesting thing - Dudelange (small team from Luxembourg) reached group stage second year in a row.
@buwaytress, well, my team Suduva was very close to reach group stage, we even were leading. Maybe 4:2 result don't reflect game because penalty in last minutes was mistake of referee - foul was outside penalty area.
Slovan haven't won, but draw was enough for them.
So, group stage draw is already tomorrow.

Live bets are so deceiving.I remember when they were first introduced quite a few years ago.All people only kept playing those bets watching the game on Tv sitting down at their desktop desk or with a laptop.They thought that by seeing the game they were able to read it well and bet accordingly.Unfortunately what I have seen is that this is the kind of bet that is one that can bring people a lot of lost money.I almost never play live.

PAOK have been underperforming in my regards, first they were knocked out of the Champions League and know they have been knocked out of the Europa League by Slovan by the Away Goal rule, most gamblers are bound to lose money because of this game because they mostly suspected PAOK to win this game very easily.

[buwaytress]

@LTU, I know. My heart jumped when they scored first, and then they actually equalised so I thought there was a chance but then they let in the 3rd goal two minutes later haha... It was a good competition too at least they didn't sit down and give up!

My consolation is I still made profit with a Wolves/Rangers parlay... single goal margins. I like Rangers for sentiment but the way they play, they're going to get so many suspensions. Finding it really hard to score in these games. So still Wolves I guess. Maybe they want to win this one and we should not give their EPL hopes too much?

There is no hell group at UCL this time. But still, each team will definitely give their best performance in this competition. I miss the surprise at this UCL competition, which is where the big European clubs didn't qualify for the big 16 phase.

Tottenham Hotspur is predicted to win the Europa League 2019/2020. In the final they defeated Manchester United.

Having previously predicted the success of Real Madrid to become champions of the 2019/2020 Champions League, BT Sport again used big data to predict the results of the 2019/2020 Europa League.

Manchester United reaching the final will make me very happy, but it’s too early in the tournament to predict such things. However I’m expecting Manchester United to prioritise winning the Europa League, because that will guarantee them a Champions League spot next season. Tottenham is not a weak team and they can definitely go ahead in the champions league, hence I don’t expect them to drop down to Europa League.

PAOK had all the fonts to win this game.
They finished with 30 shots on target and still they didn't manage to score first.
That's football and that's what it makes it interesting.

[DeathAngel]

I see that Man Utd were drawn in Group L.

Lol.

Some jokes just write themselves, poor Man U, Group L. Get it?

[Icologies]

This is the discussion thread for the Europa League. Champions League thread can be found here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5163249

Hi guys! So the old UEFA lounge was closed. And kenzawak's closed his thread for last season too... I'm loathe to open new threads every season, what do you think? Can we have this as the perma thread or a new one every season?

Meanwhile, the preliminaries for Season 2019/20 have all started! There's a curious case of a University men's team competing in UEFA competition for the first time ever. Another fairy tale in the making perhaps? Cardiff Metropolitan. Long live the Welsh!

Here's the schedule for Europa. Next Thursday is like 30 games, too long to post!

this is just a match to win the grub phase, there is no exciting match here. awaited match when the grub phase division is over and waiting for an entertaining and interesting miracle match.

[LTU_btc]

Well, Europa league group stage isn't most exciting thing, but there are some interesting groups. Groups C, E and G looks very ballanced, with at least 3 strong teams fighting for spot in the next round. Meanwhile teams like Sevilla and Man Utd got easiest possible groups.

Having previously predicted the success of Real Madrid to become champions of the 2019/2020 Champions League, BT Sport again used big data to predict the results of the 2019/2020 Europa League.

Lol, what? They used big data to compare things and then conclude who will win?

Did they also use it to predict Liverpool trashing Barcelona last season?

There are 11 players, not one single player that doesn't change throughout the season so you can always say 'this one will win because he won the previous 100'.

[Naida_BR]

Nothing interesting in the Groups after the draw.
The most interesting matches for me would be the ones between Arsenal and Frankfurt. Still those two team will qualify for sure on the 32 round but I believe the quality of the games between them will be higher than other matches.

Wow even though Tottenham Hotspurs are in the group stages of Champions League, they are going to win the Europa League meaning that they are going to finish third behind either Bayern Munich or Olympiakos and be relegated to the Europa League and with Manchester United,  i doubt they are going to make it that far into the competition.

[tokeweed]

^  I don't get it.  Tottenham?  No way they're going behind Olympiakos.  IMHO.

And I got Sevilla at 11.75 (FJ odds) to win the Europa League.  They got a decent manager and one of the best sporting directors in Europe.
