UEFA Europa League 2022/23 Season

[D-law]

!~snip~

True, both Erik ten hag and Xavi will definitely prepare the best strategy for the first leg match later, but again Barcelona will get the opportunity to host first and the support flowing from the Blaugranes will pump up the enthusiasm of the Barcelona players. I think Xavi has to anticipate Marcus Rashford's movements because in several Manchester United matches he is very consistent in scoring goals in every regular league match and does not rule out the possibility that he will score again against Barcelona later.

IMO, the home-field advantage will be a significant influence in this match. The energy levels of the Barcelona players will undoubtedly be enhanced by the backing of the Blaugranas. To limit Marcus Rashford's goal-scoring talent, Xavi has his job cut out for him. Due to the fact that both coaches are planning their best methods, it is difficult to predict the outcome of this game. There will be a lot to watch when two talented teams meet!

I am expecting nothing less than the best available players to be fielded by both teams when they go head to head in the Europa  league play offs next week. With Manchester United in their best form in more than a year I'm expecting a competitive and interesting game.

The match will certainly be competitive. No team will want to lose this match and be eliminated from the Europa League. Xavi will definitely want to win the Europa League title. On the other hand, since it is not possible for Manchester United to win the Premier League title now. So their aim now is to win the Europa League title. We will get a chance to enjoy a very competitive match.

The Europa is now gaining more momentum than the Champions league because this game between Manchester United and Barcelona. Because both team are doing well and everyone want to watch them play each other. It will be interesting week, after PSG vs Bayern Munich crash in the Champions league than we shall witness another Gian game in the Europa.

The Europa League games will be more competitive than the champions league
It comprises of big clubs like Ajax, Man United, Barcelona, Roma and Juventus
Other big name's too so it is the reason one can help bit watch the Europa League very well too

I agree with you. There are several renowned teams in the Europa League this year. And the teams are in pretty good form right now. Manchester United, Arsenal, Barcelona and Roma are all in very strong positions right now. Also the teams are almost equally strong. And so the matches are expected to be very competitive. However, I consider either Barcelona or Arsenal as favorites to win the Europa League this season.

However, I consider either Barcelona or Arsenal as favorites to win the Europa League this season.

Indeed, every match in the Europa League will now be highly competitive. Manchester United and Barcelona have a great match ahead. I will put Barcelona ahead in that match, because Barcelona is having one of the best performances in La-Liga. On the other hand, I don't see any proper balance in Manchester United team. But I cannot predict which team will win this match.

[Frankolala]

Casemiro will be available fresh for the game against Barcelona it will be the first game since he left La Liga against a Spanish side
Rashford should just be in the right position so he can always score those goals
Garnacho and Sancho can both come up at the wings to create chances

With this combination things looking amazing for the Manchester United in first leg of this round which is going to be play at Barcelona and Casemiro and Rashford both are key players for them with this deadly combination they already achieve good successes if they are able to handle this all and having something positive then surely things could be at the top for the Manchester United in long run for their success in Premier League and next year's Champions League because right now they are having fair chance for staying into top four and having good results in all other three competitions which are they involved and doing good job under Erik ten Hag in this season after having poor start.

I wasn't sure whether this competition is going to be interesting or not. If Manchester United performed as badly as they did in the beginning of the season, I think it wouldn't have been such an interesting game. Now that Barcelona is performing so well and Manchester United is also doing quite well, this game is going to be a nice one to watch for sure.

The bad thing about it is that they are meeting so early on. Both teams would have had a positive impact on the competition throughout the entire tournament. Anyway, one is going to be kicked out and it is quite a difficult call who that is going to be. I believe that Barcelona is going to make it. Their defense is so strong and in my opinion that is probably going to be the key.

It is going to be a torque of war for both Manchester united and Barcelona on Thursday, Manchester united won their match today with brilliant goals which Rashford scored the first goal. Due to the match selection of players it shows that Manchester united is preparing seriously for the clash with Barcelona.

Barcelona has a good team and are playing good football by winning their recent matches. Lewandoski is going to be the man which the team will be looking up to for their goals,which he wouldn't disappoint his team. Eric Ten Hag is more experience than Xavi and I think this will also count on the game.

[LUCKMCFLY]

We all can't wait for the Manchester United vs. Barcelona game. It's true that Manchester United has had a lot of success thus far because to the chemistry between players like Casemiro and Rashford. Following their impresive showing in the Premier League and other tournaments this season under Erik ten Hag, this match promises to be a good one to watch. It's unfortunate, however, that these two formidable squads will clash so early in the competition. Both of them making a significant influence during the tournament would have been fantastic. But, unfortunately, one team must go home since that's just how games work. My gut tells me that Barcelona will win, but it's a close game. Their defense  is too strong.

Facing Barcelona is not easy, but the experience from the two coaches played a big role in this match. Ten Hag has experience in how to deal with teams that have good offensive lines and that has been tested when he was still coaching Ajax

I personally find it difficult to predict which team will win because both teams, in my opinion, have a 50:50 chance

Well, I have been following the teams and their way of playing, the truth is that I do not find that any of them have flaws that could generate losses, I see Man United very focused, the truth is that I see Rashford quite activated, he is a very complete player, and next to Bruno Fernandez is serving him very well with the assist passes from the midfield, although I don't like the leadership of Ten Hag I have to admit that they are doing very well, and on the other hand Xavi needs to win that match, both teams have necessity and they don't want to waste any opportunity, I think that for this match I didn't know who to bet on, I see them very equal in everything.

Manchester United trio expected to miss Barcelona clash due to injury, confirms ten Hag

Barcelona have been struggling with injury issues throughout the season. The likes of Andreas Christensen, Ronald Araujo, and Jules Kounde missed key games in the Champions League group stages, for example, which ended up in Barça being relegated to the Europa League.

Even now, Ousmane Dembele has be picked up a muscle injury and will miss nearly a month worth’s of football, while Sergio Busquets is also ruled out due to injury.

The next few weeks present Barcelona with the toughest set of fixtures for the season, including a two-legged tie against Manchester United in the Europa League knockout stage.

Eric Ten Hag is more experience than Xavi and I think this will also count on the game.

On the one hand it is great to have some good games in the Europa League so early on during the final stages as that makes it more exciting to watch those games as well, but on the other hand it's sad as one of the big favorites gets kicked out already. Just looking at the tables in national competitions one would think that Barcelona is likely going to make it here, but I think this is an even game.

Both have their strengths and both are more or less on fire. In the beginning when they failed to qualify for the Champions League final round I thought they might not be motivated enough to give their very best in the Europa League, but I think at this stage of the season they are beyond it and will try to take it home. That could be a first nice little festival we are looking forward to here.

No doubt that Lewandowski is in great shape and Manchester also has its qualities offensively. I think it is going to be a close fight in the end. Barcelona's defense is incredible of course and that might be the key to the next round for them.

I am expecting nothing less than the best available players to be fielded by both teams when they go head to head in the Europa  league play offs next week. With Manchester United in their best form in more than a year I'm expecting a competitive and interesting game.

The match will certainly be competitive. No team will want to lose this match and be eliminated from the Europa League. Xavi will definitely want to win the Europa League title. On the other hand, since it is not possible for Manchester United to win the Premier League title now. So their aim now is to win the Europa League title. We will get a chance to enjoy a very competitive match.

The Europa is now gaining more momentum than the Champions league because this game between Manchester United and Barcelona. Because both team are doing well and everyone want to watch them play each other. It will be interesting week, after PSG vs Bayern Munich crash in the Champions league than we shall witness another Gian game in the Europa.

Barcelona players played very carefully against Villarreal in yesterday's match. This match shows that one of Xavi's goals is to win the Europa League title. And Barcelona will try their hardest to win the Europa League title. Barcelona have a strong squad, but mostly young players. And so Lewandowski has to play well in this match. I believe that Barcelona will win if Lewandowski plays well.

[ShowOff]

Well, I have been following the teams and their way of playing, the truth is that I do not find that any of them have flaws that could generate losses, I see Man United very focused, the truth is that I see Rashford quite activated, he is a very complete player, and next to Bruno Fernandez is serving him very well with the assist passes from the midfield, although I don't like the leadership of Ten Hag I have to admit that they are doing very well, and on the other hand Xavi needs to win that match, both teams have necessity and they don't want to waste any opportunity, I think that for this match I didn't know who to bet on, I see them very equal in everything.

I haven't followed much of Manchester United so far, but the team has done much better in the second half of the season. Winning 2 of the last 5 matches is an achievement that may not be satisfactory, but it is worthy enough to get the appreciation of the fans. Now I can expect Ten Hag and Xavi to have equal teams ready to be spectacular in the Europa League. Barcelona will host Manchester United in the first leg, that's an advantage for the Catalans but I hope Barcelona can take advantage of that.

In the last match, Barcelona won the away match against Villarreal. Even though Barcelona was not reinforced by its veteran midfielder "Busquets", the performance of De Jong and his colleagues was good enough to end the game with 3 points. Dembele has to miss the first leg but I hope it's not a big problem.

Barcelona once again had to win the match by 1 goal, it was the 5th time since January. But I don't think it's too much of an impact because everyone seems strong, including the midfielders, the defenders and their goalkeeper. Barcelona have gone 16 match unbeaten, it's a sweet record for Xavi and his team. Then Barcelona has good mission for the Europa League next February 17th.

Unbeaten run sets personal best for Xavi

Next up, Manchester United

But there's a big challenge ahead if the unbeaten run is going to continue. Thursday brings Manchester United to Spotify Camp Nou in the Europa League. United have only lost once since November 11, and that was a closely-fought 3-2 defeat to Premiership leaders Arsenal.

Curiously, and hopefully not tempting fate, Xavi's previous run of 15 games without defeat came to an end in a Europa League fixture, namely the one against Eintracht Frankfurt. Thursday offers a golden chance to lay another ghost to rest.

[CryptoBuds]

I am waiting for Ajax vs Union Berlin match. I think this will be the most competitive match after the Barcelona vs United match. The Union Berlin team is in pretty good form right now. Union Berlin is consistently playing well in every Bundesliga match. The Ajax team on the other hand is very experienced. Although Ajax's performances were erratic and weak at the beginning of the season, now the Ajax team is able to perform consistently well. This match will be very competitive. And it is impossible to predict which team will win.

I expect Barcelona to win against United. United is undoubtedly one of the strongest teams in the Europa League. But the Barcelona team is quite tactical. And Barcelona's match strategy is better than United's match strategy.

I believe that Barcelona will win if Lewandowski plays well.

Barcelona did well in the match against Villarreal,  their performance was great. Seeing Barcelona performance makes me imagine when they will meet Manchester United and how tough the game will be. Barcelona always have chances of scoring goals in every match.

wow, it looks like this is a very good moment for manchester united, the condition of MU players is currently at a good point, reading this news, it looks like MU's chances of winning have risen to 65%

I wonder what strategy Ten Hag will play in the match against Barcelona later, he really wants to win against Barcelona

[asriloni]

And it is impossible to predict which team will win.

It's a difficult game to pick up. I prefer to pick union berlin. Ajax is also a strong oppoenent for berlin and as you said that ajax has been performing so well in the local league as well as berlin. The problem is now about how strong the team. Berlin has been beating some clubs were participating in the UCL. that proves that if berlin has a very deep squads. it's also still on the track to continue its winning streak in bundesliga. that's why berlin is my favorite in this match.

I expect Barcelona to win against United. United is undoubtedly one of the strongest teams in the Europa League. But the Barcelona team is quite tactical. And Barcelona's match strategy is better than United's match strategy.

Let's see how it will be going on. I believe ten hag has been identifying so many weaknesses that owned by barcelona. This is also a very important match to prove that if barcelona can also be beaten by MU under ten hag.

I don't know where you come up with 65% chance for Manchester to qualify as that is clearly not correct in my opinion.Barcelona is in a super form recently winning every single game they play and Manchester United at home nearly lost to a team like Leeds which is in the bottom of the standings on the Premier League.Barcelona is leading the standings in La Liga and even winning games against very strong opponents too like Villareal not longer than just yesterday night.

If the encounter were to take place now I will bet for a sure Barcelona qualification as they are the most in form team in all Europe for me in this moment.

This is unfortunate news for the Barcelona team, who have a big fixture this week. This should give Manchester United a better chance of winning the first leg, as well as another advantage if most of Barcelona's key players do not return in time for the second leg. It is now up to Ten Hag to manage the game effectively in order for them to win this week. If the game formation strategy is poor, I believe Manchester United will lose the game because Barcelona must have a backup plan in place by now.

I just hope this should not  be an hindrance to Barcelona to stop them from achieving what they want in these season. If these numbers of players that they have are on injuries it will definitely affect the performance of the club. This challenge of Barcelona will be advantage to Manchester United.

No doubt Barcelona will suffer for absent of the injured players. But Barcelona still have players for compete with Manchester United in the Europa league on Thursday night. Manchester United is really Inform and a team to beat. This game will end draw,and both team will score.

It's always bad for the fans if not all of the best players are healthy and can play. But to me this looks as if it is quite even between the two teams now. Dembele is a significant loss to Barcelona has he has shown some great games thus far this season.

I am sure we can still be looking forward to a nice clash between the two teams. Still enough strong players available to make the games worthwhile watching. While it is highly unlikely that Barcelona could miss the direct qualification for the Champions League, the situation for Manchester is a bit different. They will have to fight in the Premier League until the very last day I think. Winning the Europa League could also be a backdoor ticket into the Champions League.

I'm also looking forward to seeing the match between Barcelona and Manchester United, I'm looking forward to what they can do in the Europa League against an opponent which is definitely not easy for these two teams. This is one of the biggest matches in the play-off round with a meeting between Barcelona and Manchester United. If I'm not mistaken, this will also be the first meeting for the two coaches, each team will compete tactically.

[Minecache]

I am waiting for Ajax vs Union Berlin match. I think this will be the most competitive match after the Barcelona vs United match. The Union Berlin team is in pretty good form right now. Union Berlin is consistently playing well in every Bundesliga match. The Ajax team on the other hand is very experienced. Although Ajax's performances were erratic and weak at the beginning of the season, now the Ajax team is able to perform consistently well. This match will be very competitive. And it is impossible to predict which team will win.

It's a difficult game to pick up. I prefer to pick union berlin. Ajax is also a strong oppoenent for berlin and as you said that ajax has been performing so well in the local league as well as berlin. The problem is now about how strong the team. Berlin has been beating some clubs were participating in the UCL. that proves that if berlin has a very deep squads. it's also still on the track to continue its winning streak in bundesliga. that's why berlin is my favorite in this match.

Ajax and Union Berlin is going to have a very good match. But the problem is, for now, I cannot tell which team is better. From the outside view, of course, I think that Union Berlin is the better team. Because Bundesliga is a little more competitive in my opinion. And Union Berlin is currently in the second position in Bundesliga. That is something surely to be proud of. Ajax is doing well, but I do not think we can compare that league to Bundesliga. In my personal opinion, Bundesliga is far better.

But another thing is Ajax has shown improvement recently. They had a few problems a few matches before. But right now they are performing really well. This is going to be a very close match.

I expect Barcelona to win against United. United is undoubtedly one of the strongest teams in the Europa League. But the Barcelona team is quite tactical. And Barcelona's match strategy is better than United's match strategy.

Let's see how it will be going on. I believe ten hag has been identifying so many weaknesses that owned by barcelona. This is also a very important match to prove that if barcelona can also be beaten by MU under ten hag.

Barcelona does have a lot of problems in the squad. The only reason they are being able to win is because they are obeying the coach strongly. And I really hope that they have a very good plan set up for the match against Manchester United. Otherwise, Manchester United does look very confident going against Barcelona.

I agree with you. There are several renowned teams in the Europa League this year. And the teams are in pretty good form right now. Manchester United, Arsenal, Barcelona and Roma are all in very strong positions right now. Also the teams are almost equally strong. And so the matches are expected to be very competitive. However, I consider either Barcelona or Arsenal as favorites to win the Europa League this season.

As an Arsenal fan, I hope Arteta can bring his team to the Europa League final. The Gunners are qualified to be one of the strong candidates to win this competition trophy. however, it seems that their struggle will not be as smooth as I expected. because after all, there are several other strong teams that are predicted to be strong competitors in this competition. whether it's Ajax, Barcelona, ​​Manchester United, Rome, even Juventus. it could be from one of these teams, becoming a stumbling block for Arsenal if they meet in the next round phase after the playoffs later.

But it seems we agree, that Barcelona is one of the strongest teams. moreover, if we refer to Barcelona's matches in their domestic league which have an impressive record. even so, Barcelona could have been eliminated in the playoffs later. the reason is, Manchester United also will not let Barcelona easily overthrow them. but what is certain, both Barcelona and Man United, from one of the teams that have qualified for the next round phase, will be one of the strong challengers in this competition.
