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

[ife2020]

Tomorrow there will be a lot of interesting matches... One of which is Milan vs Red Devils... Bookmakers give preference to Man U, but in my opinion Milan will be able to fight for the victory!
I'll have to think hard and place my bets for tomorrow's games...

Tomorrow game will be an unfair one for AC Milan; they will have to face Manchester United; having in mind that they have to win on Sunday too; Will Milan be cautious or go all out against Manchester United? Either ways; i see a comfortable victory for Manchester United who would have the edge. 3-1 Mufc victory

There is nothing unfair about the game, Ac Milan is a good team and a top team in the Series A at that  them having a game on Sunday is more like what every other team faces every now and then but then, its left for the manager to choose how to play this game. Which league or trophy is the most important. There isn't any doubt that, the international leagues offer more challenges and is more prestigious than the local league so, going all in is just the way to go about this game. Them playing a team like Manchester United isn't going to be an easy match for them and the Manchester United team is sure to meet a ready Ac Milan.

Anyone know why the odds on Rangers are slowly going up? With the Rangers having a home advantage, a few players sitting out for Slavia Prague and a small advantage on the away goal I was expecting the odds to shift in favor of the Rangers since they had solid results at home and currently on a long streak.

It's at 2.29 on 1x2 when I checked Betnomi. I don't know the odds before that but if it's going up as you say, I guess it's related to the recent update on Ryan Jack's injury. He was ruled out by Gerrard for the second leg.

@ife2020 if you had seen the last math between these two sides then you’ll know that Ac Milan was the better team between these two sides, and hence I don’t expect Manchester United to win this game easily. Furthermore it’s normal for teams playing in the Europa League to have these kind of headaches, and that is why these teams have a big squad of player’s whom they can rotate and aim for best results.

Shakhtar vs. Roma should be both teams to score, but I bet on Roma to win... I don't think the home field can help Shakhtar...
I also think that Ajax will beat Young Boys again...
Villareal vs. Dynamo Kyiv should also be a lot of goals!

Today's starting position for the return match of the round of 16.



Definitely get ahead in my opinion, Arsenal, Tottenham, Granada, Roma, Villarreal and Ajax. It will probably be a closer match in the last two, but I'll guess that Rangers and Milan. Manchester were happily served with the tie in the last game.

Even if Ryan Jack is out, still 2.29 - 2.38 is big enough and TBH it's very tempting. I will seriously consider including it in my parlay for today's matches...

With a score of 1-1 in the first leg, AC Milan certainly had more advantages, because in the second leg tonight, the match will be played at the San Siro (AC Milan's home). In addition, there is news that Zlatan Ibrahimovic will be able to return to play against Man United.

Even so, Man United still cannot be underestimated, because after all Man United is also a great team that has a winning mentality. Reportedly Paul Pogba will also go to Milan. Of course, this is a good thing for Man United, Pogba's experience in Italy will certainly be useful for his team.

Not sure if it was written before but Dinamo's head coach Zoran Mamić (brother of prosecuted Zdravko Mamić) resigned after receiving his final verdict by croatian court a few days ago. He will now be prosecuted as well.

Paradoxally - he was a good coach for Dinamo so they will have even less chance today. Not that they had any anyway. Still, a great run from Dinamo this year and a good advertisement for Croatian domestic football which is on the rise.

It is very good news that we will see Ibra in the rematch. Milan had a better performance than Manchester Utd in the first leg despite the absence of Ibra and they managed to get a draw with a very dramatic goal. Now they have a huge advantage for having Ibra in this and I believe they will be much better on attacking and finishing. I believe Manchester Utd's job is much harder here but of course we shouldn't forget how strong Manchester Utd is actually. If they show a greater performance compared to the first leg, they can still manage to make a comeback and advance to the next round. And I'm thinking of placing a bet on 'both teams to score' which has a nice odd around 1.7 .

it looks like all the matches are going on track because the top teams are on track, that includes the Milan v United match. I don't know too much about the Rangers v Slavia Prague match, but after winning the title in the Scotland Premiership it looks like Rangers will have a better chance of winning in this match.

It could be as a result of these messing players, they already have an aggregate score of 1-1, a 0-0 draw will scale them through despite the growing odds I'm confident Rangers will definitely put in a great effort to dismantle the away team.



On the other hand Manchester United looks incredible as Paul Pogba is back in the squad, they could beat Milan today and advance to the next stage of the competition.

yeah, ML at 2.3x odds across most bookmakers even though Rangers have all the players fully rested while Slavia had a lot of 1st team players in their last league match last weekend is kinda weird

seems like everyone's expecting another dominating peformances from the czhec side? didn't watch the game but the stats are pretty one-sided 🤔 i'll skip this one and just put some coins in a Milan - Man Utd ticket



boosted at 2.1x odds or something...Man Utd needs to take the offensive role and attack, could mean a few corners for them. I don't see this game ending 0-0, both teams need goals to secure their qualification to quarterfinals, Milan can't speculate and defend the away goal...Finally, we could see some yellow cards and who knows even red cards, i mean, stakes are high, anxiety, crucial game and both teams playing their hearts out...i'd be surprised if there isn't at least one brawl lol

Yes this will influence their performance today and its very difficult for them to recover from the defeat 2 0 against tottenham but they are doing great at the croatian league so they have nothing to lose today so tottenham team need to be really carefull.

AC Milan vs Man Utd -

This is the most interesting game tonight for me, Milan have the advantage with an away goal but it’s going to be a good battle to see who gets into the next round. Man Utd are capable of winning over there.

I agree about the most important one.However the money today is on Granada and Rangers.They have almost 2.3 odd and are playing against teams weaker than them.I would not worry about Molde as it was plain luck who qualified them here.

This is undoubtedly the central match of the tour. It came as a surprise to me that the bookmakers give Milan such a high coefficient of 3.6, despite the fact that Milan plays at home stadium and that the first match, they played very well. Of course Manchester is a very strong team, but I would rate the forces today as equal. In any case, it is enough for Milan to play 0:0 today to advance to the next round. But I want to believe that the match will be interesting and we will see goals.

ManU can scores big frequently at the opposite of Milan which generally win with 1-2 goals. I don't think ManU will let Milan pass them easily. The most interesting game to follow tonight indeed!

I have two identical bets (betbuilders) on Shakhtar and Molde's matches.

Both teams are trailing after the first leg and are unlikely to advance to the next round, but i don't think they will make it easy for Roma and Granada either. My play is home teams over0.5 goals + home teams O3.5 corners + O1.5 cards each team for around and over 3.00 total odds.

Historically, Roma and Shakhtar have played three times in Ukraine, all three in favor of the home team, i just can't see Roma keeping a clean sheet the way they have been playing lately, and the Ukrainians are a team full of South American players, they dominate possession and create chances etc.

Molde pulled the biggest surprise eliminating Hoffenheim in the previous round, the Norwegians scored 5 goals in those two matches, playing an open/attacking football, and even though they play on a neutral location today, i expect them to not leave Europa League without a fight.

edit; Shakhtar's bet won, Molde and Granada were just two cards shy of hitting as well, i forgot i had both matches on btts, so can't complain here:

Generally I'd agree here but I think Molde hugely overperformed and shouldn't have got this far. Granada themselves are guilty of a lot of pretensions and their last 10 games in La Liga was something I avoided luckily, after getting good wins from them at the season's start.

My money is still on the Andalusians to win. Roma's not good value here agree.

For funny money Rangers is my pick, as is AC Milan for home wins at 2/1 and 3/1 respectively.
