UEFA Europa League 2022/23 Season

[Juggy777]

Well, here Barcelona shows up its bad moment because of the injuries, it's something sad, because I really would like them to be 100% with everything, so who wins or loses is something decisive for the team, then it would be good that They were with all their arsenal, so that later they will not generate more excuses than because they were not with the owner or with the complete team, it is always good to have that type of evidence when things do not go well in a team, in fact the same Fans are the first to say that the team lost because they were not with their best players but with the bench, I say this because they have told me so.

Barcelona confirm injury blow before huge Europa League clash with Man Utd

[snip]

Barcelona have confirmed midfielder Sergio Busquets has suffered ankle ligament damage and is a major doubt to face Manchester United in the Europa League.

The veteran midfielder limped out of Sunday’s La Liga victory over Sevilla after just 10 minutes at the Camp Nou. The extent of his injury has now been confirmed as he is set to miss several weeks of first-team action for the Blaugrana.

Barca boss Xavi is already at odds with the club’s plans for replacing Busquets, who is out of contract in June, at the end of the campaign. Barca president Joan Laporta is pushing for the club to sign Wolves midfielder Ruben Neves, as the club supremo shares a close relationship with his agent Jorge Mendes

Did not expect that Sergio Bosquest would be sidelined for several weeks due to an ankle injury and this was pretty bad news for Barcelona. There is only one week left for the match against Manchester United in the Europa League playoffs to start. Something unexpected happened, but it looks like the fans will continue to support Barcelona, considering that the first leg will take place at Camp Nou. At least they still have strong ambitions to win this match even though it's a bit difficult because their opponent Manchester United is also in good form lately.

The impact will not be too big, Frenkie de Jong is likely to play as a central midfielder to replace Sergio Busquets, while Gavi has the potential to appear to reduce the impact of Busquets' absence in the Europa League opener against Manchester United.

Basically, Barcelona is quite ready with the potential midfield options they have this season. The absence of Sergio Busquets will not cause any deep concern for the team because Barcelona has prepared everything carefully before this

This is something that can be interpreted in various ways, first of all for lifelong Barcelona fans, they know that Busquets is a key player to win and it gives him more stability and he can have or exert more pressure in the game, Xavi They have a lot of players that they bought a long time ago, they have to use them because otherwise they would run out of options to face the greats, they also have Real Madrid breathing close and Man United.

But what I believe is that BARCELONA has fought so hard, I don't think they are going to let themselves win now in these games that are so crucial, Barcelona is in the Europa League for the second time in a row, the fans deserve to be there at UCL.

The two teams are still equally good lately and it will still be very difficult to determine which team opportunities will meet the requirements to advance to the next round. Because this time Barcelona will be the guest team at Old Trafford and in the second leg of course the enthusiasm and motivation of Manchester United to win at home is also very large so that the match will still be fierce like the first leg and can even be more exciting than the first leg.

From the first leg, both teams proved they on same par even though i felt Manchester United should have won that game easily due to the number of goal scoring chances they created. Overall United dominated Barca in the camp noun, something that isn’t easy to do this days. Barcelona will be coming to Old Trafford as underdogs in my opinion because United has never lost in the last 17 games played there in all competitions so it is like a new fortress to The Red Devils. Barcelona will also be without there golden boys Gavi and Pedri with the former missing out due to suspension as a result of yellow cards accumulated, the later left the game injured and will sit it out too. As we saw last week United actually dominated the midfield which destabilized the Barca team and with this two out and United welcoming back some of there players back then I predict them going further to the round of 16

I really don't know what to think about this match, because both teams can win, according to what I saw in the match when they played it at the Camp Nou I saw Man United much better, they made a lot of attacks and made Barcelona run faster so they could scoring the equalizing goal, United almost won and at Barcelona's home, it would have been a very strong blow for Xavi and his team.

Now with everything he has experienced in Barcelona, it is likely that Xavi will go with a different attitude against Manchester, Manchester has a slight advantage over Barcelona because they are at home, but even so, Xavi has to change his strategy, there is no more chance It's win or win, that's why this match will be very, very good.

@LUCKMCFLY this injury is definitely a cause for concern for Xavi, but Barcelona is yet a strong team and I’m sure that they’ll yet manage to put up a decent performance even in the absence of Busquets. Furthermore Manchester United will have the home advantage, and I hope that the fan’s can inspire them to defeat Barcelona and move on to the next round.

Xavi has good midfielders for this game, Busquets absent will not affect the midfield,Xavi has multiple choice to replace him, but Busquets has experienced when it comes to champions league games as the oldest player in the squad.

Manchester United is also having injury problem,and I hope by tomorrow some of the players will be available for use. Like you said, Manchester United has good advantage to advance to the next stage at old Trafford tomorrow by beating Barcelona.

[asriloni]

Match between Manchester United and Barcelona, this match will be an interesting encounter where the both teams are expected to score themselves, Manchester United is in a very good form this season, they have won most of their match this season with little draws likewise Barcelona, but this match might favour the host team because getting a 2:2 draw in away encounter with Barcelona and coming back home as the host of the match will make them to give out their best to make sure the match favours them.

Barcelona in so many disadvantages in the upcoming match. Some main players got injured, Barcelona will be also playing away, the performance from secondary players of barcelona like sergio roberto didn't give guarantee if he can perform so well against MU while MU will be coming back with so many advantages. Mu has some players that become the best players in EPL like rashford. The only problem that owned by MU if it must be using a useless striker like weghorst. It seems MU was playing with 10 players instead of 11 caused by weghors's contribution to the team is almost nothing.

MU gets very good odds even though the match will be happening in old trafford.

[rendravolt]

The second leg match between Roma vs Salzburg will be presented at the Olimpico stadium on Thursday. I think this time Roma will win this match, we know in the first leg Roma have to lose to hosts Salzburg with a score of 1-0 and this will be a very tough homework for Coach Jose Mourinho to achieve full aggregate points so they can qualify to the next round of the Europa League. Roma must at least score 2 goals in this match and most importantly they cannot lose.

Roma have been playing well at home this season... They usually don't concede goals, but within the Europa League anything can happen... Especially Salzburg recently played Bayern 4-4 but lost 4-0 to Inter... I find it hard to call Roma the favourites in this match... As you said, Roma are in a difficult situation and it will not be easy for them to score two goals against Salzburg...

It is true that Roma are so strong when playing at home, if we take a quick look at Roma's statistics in the last 10 matches at home in all competitions, they have managed to get 6 wins, 3 defeats and 1 draw. Actually, this result is quite good considering that they are very superior when playing at home and the support from Romanisti will always be with their favorite team in the match against Salzburg in the second leg later. Even though it sounds difficult, I think Roma will still win and I don't rule out the match going to extra time.

If I am informed correctly so far it is Gavi, Pedri and Dembele who are going to miss the game against Manchester United. When they are all available and in top fitness condition, they are certainly serious offensive weapons and its hurts every team if such players are missing.

However, they still have Raphael, Torres and Fati but it is true that they will lack some creativity and speed when the aforementioned players are missing.

Regarding Manchester United, I don't know whether ten Haag has no other options but sticks to Weghorst. Now we must take into account that it is not always about scoring goals even for an offensive player. Some players have a talent to create advantages for their team due to hard work on the pitch. As you can see here, Weghorst's skill ratings are quite low, but his work rates are high in both the defensive and offensive game. If he can improve in scoring as well, he is perhaps an even better asset to the team. I think that ten Haag has his reasons why he sticks to Weghorst.

If we want to compare the situation of both teams and the history of the match they had always an amazing match when Barcelona and Manchester United were against each other usually we saw these games against these two teams in the Champions League and usually, Baecvelona could beat Machester Untid because during all the first games between these two Manchester United could just win one time and it was just a friendly match also Barcelona is performing much better than before after Xavi. So, I guess Manchester United will have a hard day tomorrow against Barcelona.

Even though it sounds difficult, I think Roma will still win and I don't rule out the match going to extra time.

Mourinho will also be extra motivated as he is always on European stages. He won the Europa League with Porto and Manchester United so far. I think if he can win it with Roma as well, he is probably the only coach who won the competition with three different clubs. As we all know Mourinho is the kind of guy who likes those titles and he implicitly brags about it as well. He also isn't as present in the media as he used to be in the past and maybe he would love to be a hot topic very soon again.

I just saw that he is now 60 years of age. Do you guys think he is someone who will still be coaching at the age of 70 or is he going to retire soon? I think he would first take on a job for a national team.

[brooksby]

Salzburg is probably going to focus mostly on their defense and keep a clean sheet for as long as possible. They have a good squad with a balanced game between offense and defense, but they also that they won't be dominating Roma in a home game. Roma is in quite good shape right now and they have a decent home game statistic so far. Salzburg can wait for their chances while driving Roma to desperation. It's very tough to say who will qualify for the next round. My guess still is that Roma will turn it around.

I don't think Roma would turn it around, Salzburg are a very good team and they played a good first leg, Roma are an inconsistent team, they find it hard to win games in a row, before the first leg many fans thought that Roma were going to win easily, but their inconsistency affected them in the first leg and they lost. The only good thing for Roma is that they are going to play the second leg in their home, so their fans are going to be very loud and behind them, i feel the game will go to extra time and possibly penalties, and if it gets to that, any team can win; but i don't believe that Roma would turn the game around and win during the 90 mins.

These days they are an inconsistent team? No, they are doing quite well and Salzburg didn't win with 3 or more goals, it is just 1 goal that Roma has to score in order to equalize as a first step. Salzburg will be given a hard time in Rome. This is a match between two equal teams and in the first leg Salzburg had its home advantage and now in the second leg it is Roma's turn.

[Davian144]

The opportunities for MU and Barcelona to qualify for the round of 16 are still equally open. However, the Red Devils certainly have advantages that might be very beneficial for them, namely, the advantage of away goals and playing at home. Apart from that, Erik Ten Hag also greatly benefited from the opponent's condition. Barcelona came to Old Trafford with a limp strength. Xavi cannot rely on Dembele and Pedri who are injured, while Gavi is suspended from playing due to accumulation of yellow cards.

That is clearly an advantage for Manchester United because of the condition of Barcelona's players who are having problems with injuries and accumulation of yellow cards, but Manchester United doesn't have to be happy or arrogant about this because Manchester United also still needs to prove itself is the best in front of its own fans. Erik Ten Hag will also instruct his troops not to make mistakes in the second leg at home this week.

Even though Barcelona are not favored in the second leg, I'm sure Xavi will instruct his troops to appear tough until the end of time. This season's Europa League is a competition worth fighting for by United and Barcelona. This second tier event in Europe can also be a springboard for the two teams to return to the top of success.

Barcelona will still be favored by some people and also by their own fans in the second leg later, because as you said, the chances for Barcelona and Manchester United to qualify for the last 16 are still open. And that's despite the advantage Manchester United have at home which will probably be a very good advantage for Manchester United.

So, I guess Manchester United will have a hard day tomorrow against Barcelona.

That's what we said for Manchester United in the first match, but they narrowly missed the win.  Despite many injuries, his efforts should be appreciated.  Manchester United is a very good team.  So is Barcelona.  Both teams can win in tomorrow's match, whichever wins, the team that advances to the next round will be deserving.

[RealMalatesta]

This is something that can be interpreted in various ways, first of all for lifelong Barcelona fans, they know that Busquets is a key player to win and it gives him more stability and he can have or exert more pressure in the game, Xavi They have a lot of players that they bought a long time ago, they have to use them because otherwise they would run out of options to face the greats, they also have Real Madrid breathing close and Man United.

But what I believe is that BARCELONA has fought so hard, I don't think they are going to let themselves win now in these games that are so crucial, Barcelona is in the Europa League for the second time in a row, the fans deserve to be there at UCL.

I agree that Barcelona will try to do their best to win, and they have players to replace each other, and they have a manager that can change the tactic to suit whoever they have, which is a lot better and could work well for them. I know it is not going to be easy, and I know they rather have him in the long run, but it's going to be not an impossible task to get someone else to play there and do as well as they could.

We have seen them play so many different players this season due to injuries, and they still do so well, which I believe they will be capable of doing some more, be great at La Liga like they have been all season, and give United the hardest game of their season.

MU gets very good odds even though the match will be happening in old trafford.

the odds for Manchester United's win are quite tempting I think, it's true that this is a battle between two of Europe's top teams, but with what we saw in the first leg, it looks like Manchester United will have a pretty big chance to beat Barcelona at Old Trafford.
I am very optimistic for Manchster United's victory in this match and that is a very logical reason when looking at Manchster United's performance which has been very consistent in its last few matches.
Apart from a number of players from the two teams who cannot play in the second leg later, I can see the overall performance of the two teams.
I'm sure to bet big for Manchester United's victory in the second leg later.

If we refer to the predicted line-up of the two teams, this match is very interesting. based on predictions, Ten Hag will apply the formation he usually uses with 4-2-3-1. at least, in this match Ten Hag was quite confident with his players. the return of Lisandro Martinez and Diogo Dalot, became key players in defense. Sabitzer and Casemiro, paired as a double pivot. the rest, there is no change for the front line. in this way, Ten Hag will optimize his troops to win the match against Barcelona at their own headquarters.

On the other hand, based on temporary predictions, Xavi will not change his formation and use the 4-3-3 formation pattern. the difference is, Ferran Torres will be played as a starter in this match. it seems, Segio Roberto and Kessie will be paired as a double pivot, and De Jong will be an attacking midfielder. the rest, Raphina and Lewandowski. interestingly, if Raphina and Torres are able to play optimally. then this fight will show a very interesting match. I think, Manchester United will not be easy to overthrow Barcelona.

[X-ray]

These days they are an inconsistent team? No, they are doing quite well and Salzburg didn't win with 3 or more goals, it is just 1 goal that Roma has to score in order to equalize as a first step. Salzburg will be given a hard time in Rome. This is a match between two equal teams and in the first leg Salzburg had its home advantage and now in the second leg it is Roma's turn.

1 goals looks so easy to be surpassed by roma when it will be playing at home. Salzburg is also having very big pressure to make sure roma will not make more than two goals. Salzburg will able to win as long as the match will be draw or only 1-0 as the result.

The upcoming match is very hard to predict. Roma was playing well enough during the first leg but it was not enough to defeat salzburg. What i can do to believe with a formation that will be made by mourinho.
Im sure that mourinho will be coming with something different in the second leg very soon. Playing at home was just boosting mentality from players.

[bering]

Very interesting to see Sevilla performance during play off match because they had opposite performance than in Laliga this because Sevilla can able to performing well in this competition and 3-0 in the first met makes Sevilla in the comfortable position and their chances to qualified is almost be certain because they could aim for a draw in the second leg or at least not lose with 3 goals margin and it is very possible to achieve by Sevilla and for their opponent PSV i was never thought PSV has been humiliated with those scores and now if want to qualified to the next round they have to win at least 4-0 and this is very hard target for them

But in fact, Sevilla's performance has indeed improved after the World Cup break. Previously Sevilla was only struggling because it was difficult to avoid the relegation zone in the La Liga standings, but now Sevilla is slowly getting back on track.
This can at least push Sevilla to be even better in the Europa League as well because basically, Sevilla does have a good place in the Europa League so that Sevilla can have good abilities to continue to compete in the Europa League.

And that's despite the advantage Manchester United have at home which will probably be a very good advantage for Manchester United.

I also think Manchester United have a better chance of winning the return game. They showed that they can beat Barcelona in the first game, but Barcelona miraculously managed to equalise. I think Manchester will win at Old Trafford and reach the quarterfinals. Their home game statistics are very good and they have not lost at home for a long time and win regularly.

[Docnaster]

So, I guess Manchester United will have a hard day tomorrow against Barcelona.

when you trace the history between Manchester United and Barcelona in the European competitions Barcelona is always ahead of Manchester United but with the recent form of Manchester United it will be very difficult for Barcelona to have a decent result in the Old Trafford.

Since they were unable to win Manchester United in Spain it will be difficult for them to do so in England so there will be a very fierce fixture and Manchester United could come out victorious

[LUCKMCFLY]

It's a game one can not fully decide or predict the end but if Manchester United tried to get a draw at Barcelona's home then they can strategize and find way to break Barcelona at Old Trafford were they have achieved mostof them best points this season. No I mean to say immediately after the world cup. Good one from Xavi Hernandez he's done a job I expected but I expect better next season. I expect them to pick the La Liga again of they win this year.

that is rather difficult to happen if manchester united is chasing a draw at home to barcelona. Barcelona is very ambitious when playing in front of its supporters, especially in the Europa League, of course, all the best strengths that they have will be fully utilized in order to win. but on the one hand it is good if Manchester United can draw in the first leg and Manchester United can take advantage of the second leg to seek victory.

it is rather difficult to say the results of these two teams because of course the best quality is shared by these two teams. some of the players from these two teams have shined quite a bit this season and I even thought that in the first leg later one of them would definitely lose and a draw might not happen.

I can only say one thing, it is very difficult for Barcelona to lose at Camp Nou, they have all their people there and all their fans are going to support them a lot since they are player number 12, so it will be very difficult for Man United Of course I'm not saying it's impossible, however soccer can give very good surprises, it can also happen that Barcelona plays badly and loses, it's all in the possibilities, but I repeat how they will play in Barcelona, it's very likely that Barcelona will win.

I'm really looking forward to this game now! Especially the second leg at Old Traford, there will be the final and decisive match.

Giovanni Guardalà insists Juventus must play better to beat Nantes on Thursday

Journalist Giovanni Guardalà was not convinced by Juventus’ performance in their game against Spezia and insists they must play better in the match against Nantes.

The Bianconeri have it all to do and must win in France to advance to the next round of the Europa League after Nantes earned a 1-1 draw against them in the first leg.

Juve has been poor in Europe this season, but they are still one of the favourites to win the Europa League.

To get close to the trophy, they must eliminate the Ligue 1 side on Thursday and Guardala warns they have to do better in the fixture to earn a win.

the odds for Manchester United's win are quite tempting I think, it's true that this is a battle between two of Europe's top teams, but with what we saw in the first leg, it looks like Manchester United will have a pretty big chance to beat Barcelona at Old Trafford.
I am very optimistic for Manchster United's victory in this match and that is a very logical reason when looking at Manchster United's performance which has been very consistent in its last few matches.
Apart from a number of players from the two teams who cannot play in the second leg later, I can see the overall performance of the two teams.
I'm sure to bet big for Manchester United's victory in the second leg later.

All possible opportunities for Man United are still quite big considering playing at Old Trafford as their home ground and they don't have a player who is absent in the sense that the main squad is ready to appear in the second leg later while other rumors for Barcelona they have some problems about players who getting injured of course it's a bit of a loss for Xavi and an advantage for Ten Hag, but we don't know the result later but it will be exciting in the second leg it will be decisive for them.

Very interesting to see Sevilla performance during play off match because they had opposite performance than in Laliga this because Sevilla can able to performing well in this competition and 3-0 in the first met makes Sevilla in the comfortable position and their chances to qualified is almost be certain because they could aim for a draw in the second leg or at least not lose with 3 goals margin and it is very possible to achieve by Sevilla and for their opponent PSV i was never thought PSV has been humiliated with those scores and now if want to qualified to the next round they have to win at least 4-0 and this is very hard target for them

But in fact, Sevilla's performance has indeed improved after the World Cup break. Previously Sevilla was only struggling because it was difficult to avoid the relegation zone in the La Liga standings, but now Sevilla is slowly getting back on track.
This can at least push Sevilla to be even better in the Europa League as well because basically, Sevilla does have a good place in the Europa League so that Sevilla can have good abilities to continue to compete in the Europa League.

You are right that Sevilla have improved a lot after experiencing a bad situation with their negative record at the start of the season which made them feel the cold of the relegation zone. But slowly they are improving and the result is that we see this score in the Europa League play offs. To be honest, I didn't think that Sevilla wouldn't be able to do much in this round, but the truth is that in the first leg they were able to finish very well.
