UEFA Europa League 2022/23 Season

[Falconer]

From the 4 ongoing matches, I think it's safe to think that Sevilla, Juventus, Sporting and Leverkusen will qualify for the next stage in the Europa League. The four teams above currently have an aggregate advantage in the second leg, but Monaco vs Leverkusen may not be certain.

For the upcoming match, Manchester United vs Barcelona will be the most interesting to watch. While some people believe Barcelona to win, others expect Manchester United to win it. Roma looked to have convinced a lot of people even though they had lost the first leg, but at home Roma are the favourites.

I have seen Manchester United line up and looks like this;
Defense:
Dear Gea
Wambissaka
Varane
Marrinez
Shaw

Midfield:
Casemiro
Fred
Bruno

Attack:
Sancho
Weghorst
Rashford.

Looking nice but I don't trust Weghorst.

I agree that these two teams have an equal chance of qualifying after a 2-2 draw in the first leg. But you know, Barcelona came to Old Trafford with big ambitions so I really couldn't underestimate him in the match. Barcelona are missing some of their best players, including Dembele, Pedri and Gavi, but Xavi should have better options than anyone else so opportunities can be expected from him.

If there's anything to worry about, it's Manchester United. It's a humiliation to lose at home where the opponent has managed to win and qualify, and this has put them under pressure that many people probably don't talk about. Playing at home is one thing that the home team cannot always take advantage of, meaning that not always playing at home will determine the victory of the home team.

Are you sure if Xavi rotation will work or will they really screw up at Old Trafford later.
Besides that, the loss of Gavi and Pedri will make it difficult for Xavi in ​​the match because they are the heart of building attacks, this is an important match that will determine their chances of qualifying for the next round. I think Xavi really has magic in managing his strategy.

If you refer to the game in the first leg, of course you saw how Manchester United balanced the game from Barcelona and even Manchester United was able to take 18 shots, which is a pretty good thing in away games. So playing at home I think they were more consistent and more aggressive from the first leg.

24 hours left and today Xavi said there is a possibility for us to lose the game tomorrow against Manchester United and Erik Ten Hag players because as you know they don't have many important players for this match Gavi and Pedri and Dembele but I don't think if that's real because even without of these players Xavi can replace other players this speech from him can be just part of the plan a day before the games start, regardless of that we all know Ten Hag will have hard day tomorrow against Barcelona.

Gavi, Pedri and Dembele are important players in the Barcelona squad, ​​but of the three names the most influential in my opinion is Pedri, because he is a midfielder who is able to maintain the rhythm of the game, especially without Busquets who is not in the line-up, so the regulator Attacks only rely on Sergi Roberto, Frenkie De Jong and Franck Kessie, so Barcelona's strength will be a little weak in the midfield.

Erik Ten Hak had a difficult day playing at Camp Nou, but his skills and strategy were able to hold Barcelona to a draw, now the real burden comes from Xavi because they came to Old Trafford at a time when Manchester United was in good form and the support of the fans was an additional capital for them.

That is why I did mention Weghorst's work rates in my post. From time to time it happens that nobody understands why a coach picks a certain player, but it might be the perfect missing piece to complete the idea the coach in mind. I remember when Mourinho was a fan of Khedira, you remember too? I didn't ever like Khedira, but Mourinho must have had his reasons to let him player a full season. The work rate was great again but he wouldn't hit the target from two meters even if the goal was empty. Players with high work rates have a value that is as important as goals and assists.

But believe me tonight he will score at least one goal, Erik Ten Hak is a typical coach who does not rely on the individual qualities of players, Manchester United's football philosophy is more about quick attacks and long passes in the past. But since Erik Ten Hak became a coach, short passing from foot to foot with a level of accuracy resembling the tiki-taka philosophy is very visible and still maintains fast counter-attack combinations, which Erik Ten Hak does differently from previous Manchester United coaches.

Back to Weghorst, this player has the advantage of distracting the opposing defenders and also has the ability to open up empty space for other players, so that the wing strikers and attacking midfielders have more freedom to be in the right position to score goals, I think this is what Erik Ten Hak defended when Weghorst played.

From the 4 ongoing matches, I think it's safe to think that Sevilla, Juventus, Sporting and Leverkusen will qualify for the next stage in the Europa League. The four teams above currently have an aggregate advantage in the second leg, but Monaco vs Leverkusen may not be certain.

Monaco and Bayern Leverkusen is the game that remains in conclusive as it is. Bayer Leverkusen are lesding but the aggregates have them at 5:5 goals. Don't know if the go for and against would play against them here but the game might as well go into extra time.
They are going into extra time alright and for a moment, Monaco almost had there break through with a goal that came off a ball that was already over.

Sevilla are losing but, it doenst matter. They had a whole 3 goals advantage in the first half and were going to maintain there lead in this one.
Juventus have been better and Di Maria have got a hat-trick for him.

All other teams in the likes of Sporting, Juventus and Sevilla are qualified already. While, Monaco and Bayer Leverkusen have got to settle it in extra time or proceed to penalties.

[LGD2Business]

Juventus had a very comfortable match. They took the lead early with a goal from Di Maria and kept control of the match from start to finish. Pallois received a red card for blocking the ball into the goal with his arm and Juventus earned a penalty. Juventus felt very relieved when Di Maria scored the penalty. Nantes had no chance after that. Playing a more controlled game in the second half, Juventus scored the third goal and it was a very bad night for Nantes. Nantes couldn't use the advantage they had in the first match. Juve showed that they are one of the best teams of this tournament. Fortunately, this match was broadcast on the open channel. Especially the first goal Di Maria scored. We are lucky to see his magic on live.

Leverkusen vs Monaco is strongly indecisive. The two teams now share the same aggregate. Sevilla, Juventus and Sporting has made their transition to the quarter finals more realistic. Monaco might end up denying Leverkusen that qualification they need for the next round.

For the upcoming match, Manchester United vs Barcelona will be the most interesting to watch. While some people believe Barcelona to win, others expect Manchester United to win it. Roma looked to have convinced a lot of people even though they had lost the first leg, but at home Roma are the favourites.

Old Trafford will be hot tonight. Aggregate might not be in favour of united because they have only won 1 out of 11 games played against  Barcelona in all European competitions. In their last 5 games they lost 4 and drew their last match.  United need to be more aggressive in their attack today to secure a win. Ajax vs Union Berlin will be another strong display tonight because after the first leg both team have the same aggregate Berlin seems to be the favourite tonight. Roma might have to leave tonight because RB Salzburg will be out to defend their point

Juventus absolutely could not fail to pass the round, given the turbulent year they had, the least they could do was pass the round, giving their fans a joy! in less than 20 minutes the most awaited match of this playoff between Manchester and Barcelona will begin, a tough match open to all results! on paper Barcelona are much stronger but they play away from home. I think I'll focus on over 2.5 for this match

[Doell]

Monaco vs Leverkusen is one of the most interesting matches at the moment, before the Manchester United vs Barcelona match. Monaco can actually win, considering they are playing at home. But Leverkusen are playing quite well at home of Monaco, maybe we will see a penaltie shoot or maybe not, but if there is a penaltie shoot I hope Monaco can qualify.

[hahay]

I think Sevilla will still be able to play with an effort not to lose although indeed, losing 2-0 still makes Sevilla qualify for the next round. But I hope Sevilla can end the match with a draw because at least, if Sevilla ends the match with a draw, of course it will be better for their record.

But apart from that, of course congratulations to Sevilla who can still continue to play in the Europa League when the situation and or the team's performance is not good in La Liga. But with results like that, at least it will make Sevilla even better for the next matches both in La Liga and also in the Europa League.

We are getting close to the end of extra time in the Monaco vs Leverkusen match now. To be honest I wasn't expecting Leverkusen to be this much determined to eliminate Monaco in France. Because we have all seen the first leg in the end. Leverkusen had quite big issues with their defending and this cost them really high. After losing home it was much more difficult for them to make a comeback.

But there have been a quite different Leverkusen in the current match so far. They were nearly finishing the job in regular time but the goal came in the last minutes saved Monaco some more time. Xabi Alonso's Leverkusen really want to do their best in the Europa League now.

[Ondekinecakabilirim]

Manchester United - Barcelona match will give us a breeze from the Champions League tonight. Because tonight I'll feel like I'm watching the quarter-finals of the Champions League. Both teams finished the previous season very poorly. But this season they are very good. Barcelona are the leaders in La Liga. They are 8 points ahead of Real Madrid. And they won their last 7 games in the league. On the other hand, Manchester United started badly in the league. The tension between Christiano Ronaldo and Erik ten Hag hurt them. But now they are the closest follower of Manchester City and Arsenal. In short, I expect a great match. Both teams are very good. But I can't predict which team will win.

[coinlocket$]

Superb game for DI Maria, Juventus dominated and won 3-0 with 3 goals from Di Maria.

The goals could be more but they failed so many.

Still the same result in extra time and it looks like we probobly see penalties in this duel between these two teams. But an amazing first leg and now an even more intresting second match. Leverkusen playing better in the second match but still need a goal to finish this before penalties.

Especially the first goal Di Maria scored. We are lucky to see his magic on live.

This is truly a day for Di Maria. Juventus' victory with a very good hat trick shown by Di Maria in this match made them move comfortably for the Europa League.
Nicolas Pallois' red card also made Union worse off and of course this was the end for them.
It's just a matter of waiting for the other clubs to qualify now, especially we're definitely looking forward to Barcelona and Manchester United now.

juventus has secured a ticket to the round of 16. Di maria is a big hero in juventus body in the match against Nantes. The hat trick from Di Maria is proof that Juventus really want to be really ready to compete in the title race.

Some ongoing matches are no less interesting between Manchester United and Barcelona. I judge that Barcelona has a stronger soul or mentality to qualify for the next round. I hope Lewandowski can score goals in this match and lead Barcelona to advance to the next round. but for that, we'll just have to see this match, which has entered the 10th minute.

[BitcoinAccepted]

As bad as it actually goes in the league and with the whole club, it went so well for Juventus in today's game at Nantes. At home it only became 1-1, but here they quickly led 0-2 and Nantes also received a red card. And the spectacle between United and Barcelona has also started, which can go either way. 80% of the fans will want to see that match anyway. Man United has built up a lot of quality individually and Ten Hag has made a good team for which he gets all the credit. The question is who will break the spell first.

[swogerino]

Barcelona just scored with a penalty to make this game even more beautiful to watch.Personally I have bet on Barcelona win or draw as I was afraid a bit by the bookies as always but I think we have to start not taking at all into consideration the odds when two big names are playing against each other,we can assess their performance by ourselves.Lewandowski just converted the penalty into goal and now Manchester is forced to go all in,in order to equalize and have a chance to get back in the game,I know it is to early but the scoring so early from Barcelona says a lot about them and how much they value the Europa League.

Even with those 15 points they lost they still wouldn't have a chance against Napoli this season is my guess. Juventus just isn't performing well although they have some big names on paper. They wouldn't even be close to Napoli and this is what was a bit unexpected before the season started. They would be about as good as the first four. They would actually be fighting hard for the first four ranks and that is not enough for a team that should usually have enough drive to for the top. It is overall a bad season even if you don't take the deducted 15 points into account. It is not over yet though, but if they want to get the best out of this season they should beat Nantes now. This would be bad if the big Juventus Turin also loses in the first knockout stage of the Europa League.

I feel ya. The way Juve's been playin this season is a total bummer, even with some big shots on their squad. It's really whack to watch a team with that much potential struggle to stay afloat in the league. And losin those 15 points aint exactly makin things any easier, ya feel me? But let's be real, even without those points, they wouldn't be anywhere near the top.

As a bettor, I wouldn't even think about puttin my dough on them for the Europa Luegue. It's just not their year. They need to start focusin on next season and figure out how to up their game in the league and other competitions. Maybe they need to bring in some fresh blood or switch up their game plan altogether.

But yo, anythin could happen. Maybe they'll pull a sick comeback outta nowhere, but I ain't holdin my breath. So, let's just kick back, chillax, and enjoy the rest of the season while hopin for some dope matches and upsets. After all, that's what makes sports so freaking rad - you never know what's gonna go down.

When Sporting Lisbon increased the pressure against their 10-man opponent, they had no problems in finding goals. The second half was more under Lisbon's control. We can already see this with the 3 goals scored.
In the Monaco-Leverkusen match, Monaco managed to take the match to extra time with a goal in the last minutes. However, Leverkusen was the one who survived the round in penalties when there was no equalizer in extra time. It seemed a bit ridiculous for Monaco to be eliminated when they were in such good form in the league.
