UEFA Europa League 2022/23 Season

[Accardo]

Arsenal taking the first lead of the match and ending up playing a 2-2 draw wasn't impressive, considering their performance in their last few premier league games, especially the Saturday game. I thought they would win sporting but sporting gave them a tough time, Arsenal was lucky, if they lost the game their return leg won't be assured that they'll survive it. Hence, I'd assume they were exhausted from few days match gaps that's given to them, they just finished playing premier league on Saturday and yesterday Europa. Regardless of scores I enjoy watching Arsenal games they spice up football and it's the reason I love watching Arsenal games. Let's look out to the outcome of the second leg.

For Arsenal, this is a good result, two goals scored away, and a draw is an acceptable result, after all, Sporting were participants in the group stage of the Champions League. There will be support from the fans in London, this will add strength to Arsenal, besides, they play better at home, so I think that they will have more chances to win.

Arsenal can't be predicted, hence the 2:2 draw wasn't actually earned, considering the own goal from the sporting side. Arsenal sometimes finds it difficult to score in some games that doesn't fit into their playing tactics. All Arsenal needs is to strike other than playing sweet football, though that's why I watch them, but for them to win, more goals are needed. And they need to play Saka till the end of the game, to maintain his wing, which will help Arsenal team not to lose out any opportunity that'll lead to goal.

For me a bit strange to see Sevilla performance in this competition which is more better than in Laliga and after eliminated on group stage champion league i can see they had good progress and on play off matches while against PSV most people didn't placed them as the favourite because PSV is clearly better than them but in fact Sevilla can overcomes their opponent and qualified to round of 16

Currently Sevilla in the comfortable position because they already won 2-0 from Fenerbahce and for second leg all they have to do is try not to lose by a 2 goal margin or more even if possible targetting draw result from Fenerbahce and if Sevilla can qualified to quarterfinal i think they can be counted as underdog team who possibly can makes favourite teams such as Arsenal and Manchester United to slipped so these teams should beware of them

Sevilla managed to consolidate their position after securing victory in their last match. The next matches will be played more seriously to facilitate securing the next round.

It is a strange tradition from Sevilla. They look to be born to win Europa League as in history including C2 before Europa League, no single club can win many titles like Sevilla within about 20 years. It's a record and maybe no club will break Sevilla record. Because to break it, it requires many conditions, first you must are strong and lucky in Europa League to win many titles there. Second you must have enough bad and good result in Champions League to be relegated to Europa League like Sevilla. Some clubs grow with time and they move from Europa League to Champions League and manage to stay there. Sevilla in many seasons simply be relegated from Champions League, then joined Europa League and win it. What a coincidence!

Currently Sevilla in the comfortable position because they already won 2-0 from Fenerbahce and for second leg all they have to do is try not to lose by a 2 goal margin or more even if possible targetting draw result from Fenerbahce and if Sevilla can qualified to quarterfinal

With a first leg result, they look to be safe but Fenerbahce will have a match at home to beat Sevilla. I believe with Europa League DNA, Sevilla will succeed to protect their advantage and continue their hunt for another Europa League trophy.

It looks like Fenerbahce have thrown away a big chance against Sevilla last night. Because they seemed really effective in the first half. But they were just lacking in finishing up those ones with goals. I wonder why they struggled that much because Jorge Jesus' system was working like a clockwork in the Europa League normally. Sometimes teams can really have a bad day and this was such day for Fenerbahce side. Sevilla should consider themselves lucky about not conceding first.

Because I think Sevilla defense would be in a bigger trouble if Fenerbahce managed to score first. They already don't have a reliable kind of defending style.

But in fact Fenerbahce only excelled with 8 goal attempts and 3 shots on goal in the first half, but in ball possession Sevilla still dominated. So I think it's a fair result, and even if for example Fenerbahce could score first then it looks like Sevilla will still be able to get a goal back either to turn it into a win or just a draw.

Sevilla is basically at this moment experiencing an increase in performance, because good results have also occurred in La Liga.
So yes, I think with a statistical record like that it's still not promising for a team to win because after all, this is the knockout stage which is certainly not easy for them to be able to win when playing away.

Sevilla secured a great victory in the Europa League match today. However, the opposition team performed brilliantly throughout the match but failed to create any chances. Sevilla are getting stronger day by day.

Sevilla performed better than I was expected to see during this game and they won the game with a 2-0 result Fenerbahçe is also not a weak team and they are currently the second team in the league but the game was in Spain and Sevilla had better situation because playing at home compared to Fenerbahçe, in the next game Fenerbahçe should start the game with attacking style and score two goals which can be hard for them.

Sevilla's attacking players are in great form, which is why they are able to win matches. I think the Sevilla team will become the best team one day if they work hard like this.

Sevilla must play consistently in the next match at home to Fenerbahce, because we know that Fenerbahce's home ground has hardline supporters which could break the player's concentration, Sevilla has already won 2-0 at home, of course in the second leg you have to play as well as possible from the leg First, because Fenerbahce is not a club that has no experience in the European league, and added that Fenerbahce will have the advantage of playing at their home ground which of course will increase the enthusiasm of playing in the second leg, even though Sevilla are bad in the Spanish League it doesn't mean they are weak in the Europa League , at least it can increase the attack style when the Second Leg starts..

[Awaklara]

even though Sevilla are bad in the Spanish League it doesn't mean they are weak in the Europa League , at least it can increase the attack style when the Second Leg starts..

although Sevilla has a chance to qualify for the next round. but I'm not sure Sevilla will survive in the next round when they have to face stronger teams.
Seville's appearance this season has been very chaotic. In La Liga, Sevilla is still struggling to get away from the relegation zone. after being depressed in the relegation zone, now they are playing better and collecting points to survive in La Liga next season.
but to do better in the Europa League, I'm afraid they won't get a better chance than where they are right now. there are better teams in the Europa League than Sevilla.

Man United definitely wants the Europa League title because they haven't won a trophy in quite a while and this season they have a good chance to make it happen. Even though the European League is their concern but I think Man United will still fight as hard as they can in the Premier League because they also have a target to get a place in the Champions League next season. The defeat to Liverpool was indeed an obstacle, but I think they will learn a lesson from it.

Yep. Manchester United has a good team and the momentum to win the Europa League title.
Currently, United is position three on the table, even though the chances to be a champion are small, but I believe Ten Hag will not let go of that opportunity.
And United need performance as they did against Betis in their next match, That zeal to win they showed, and that love of playing every minute. That is the UNITED way...

I don't doubt Manchester United's performance, the victory over Betis shows that The Red Devils deserve to be the favorites to be a candidate in the title race of this competition. also, they were able to bounce back after losing to Liverpool in their Domestic League competition. unfortunately, I see that Ten Hag doesn't have many options other than to play his main starter in every match. the impact, it can be bad if in the end some of the core players experience fatigue or get injured in the following matches and that will greatly affect the team's overall performance.

Iunderstand the complexities Ten hag gets into, he doesn't have a lot of options for second tier players that are quite on par with the main players. meaning, Ten Hag has to keep trying to keep its players fit with a busy schedule. for the Premier League trophy, it's not yet United's time. but for the FA Cup, The Red Devils are very likely to win it. and yes, for the Europa League as I said before. The Red Devils have the potential to be a strong candidate, in the second leg it will not be a problem for United to beat Betis.

[RealMalatesta]

It's ten hag who has been pushing the club after it was losing against liverpool with embarrassing scores. Glad to see that with threats that already issued by ten hag already made MU's players if the problems must be fixed as soon as possible. Betis is not having chance to be qualified for the next round. I were feeling so mad when pellegrini as betis's coach was mocking MU and EPL. I think that if pellegrini must try to see himself. Glad to see that if betis was already destroyed by MU and that was also giving betis no chance to make come back. Im sure that if MU will be winning easily in the second leg. Betis looks like an easy opponent for MU. A method to give MU's players a threat was working perfectly. None of players wanna be relegated into the u21 team

I think it was obvious from the start that it was just a one game mistake and they wouldn't be that bad for a long time. It's nice to see them winning like this, and it wasn't like some close win neither, they won easily and dominated the whole game but we knew that they were capable of winning like that whenever they played hard and that Liverpool game was just one game out of so many during the season.

They have been fine for a while now and I think they will be fine for the rest of the season and that will stay as just one bad game that they had and nothing more than that. I know it must felt humiliating to have that, but that doesn't change anything in the long run.

[LUCKMCFLY]

Winning Europa League is not easy but it is a more realistic task for them than ending in Serie A top four. They don't have to chase any club in Europa League and task is beating each opponent to the last one in final match. Juventus have enough good players and a very experienced coach in cup format, Allegri that can help them lift Europa League.

Winning the Europa League title has become much more difficult this season. And this season's Europa League has been very competitive. Several top-tier teams are now playing for the Europa League title. Arsenal, Manchester United, Union Berlin, Juventus, and Roma. There is no way to call any team weak. Every team is in good form now. And so far every team has the potential to become champions. As many big teams are fighting for the title. So it becomes difficult for any team to become champions this season. Juventus have a good squad. Even then, there is no way to say for sure that the Juventus team will be the champion.

I can't deny that although I'm not a Barcelona fan, I wanted Barcelona to win, because I really liked it when Xavi played, I don't deny it, he played very well and intelligently, now about the Europa League yes, he has a great level, Man United He is flying, but when he meets Dimaría's Juve there if they have to play with everything, the noodle is inspired and does not want to lose, he wants to go with that title, he will show that he is world champion for a reason, and he is already showing it Because the goals that were scored were spectacular.

Man United definitely wants the Europa League title because they haven't won a trophy in quite a while and this season they have a good chance to make it happen. Even though the European League is their concern but I think Man United will still fight as hard as they can in the Premier League because they also have a target to get a place in the Champions League next season.

Btw. United on sweeping 3 of 4 Premier league awards in February. Congratulations... February was RED

There is no denying that United  has had its good Achievements , somehow they have to erase the bad taste left by the defeat and humiliation that Liverpool did to them in the PL , but here in the Europa League things do not have them so Easy, I would think a lot about Juve, They are very motivated , "Fideo Dimaría" really wants to do his good Fútbol and let me know why he is world Champion, this is not for Free, and it is known that the only way to be able to achieve it is by scoring goals , and the way they are doing it , I think Ten Hag gave an interview that it is a Team that speed beats them and if not , Mo Salah says so.

The Juventus team is now pushing itself forward. Angel DiMaria has been a great addition to the team and he has been able to perform admirably in every match. Juventus still have great potential to do something like this going forward.

Regarding Manchester United and Europa League, if they continue performing like this in the tournament they can be the first chance for the Europa League title but still, we cannot be sure about this because any strange can happen just like the game between Manchester United and Liverpool otherwise Ten Hag affect the team enough to say Manchester United is ready to take the title in this season.

Their chances are big enough to win the Europa League this season, but they have to compete with teams who also have the same chance to win the title. However, when compared with other teams, I think Manchester United can do well, provided they cannot lose concentration like when they were humiliated by Liverpool, because one of the things that caused them to lose badly at that time was that they lost concentration.

[rendravolt]

Currently Sevilla in the comfortable position because they already won 2-0 from Fenerbahce and for second leg all they have to do is try not to lose by a 2 goal margin or more even if possible targetting draw result from Fenerbahce and if Sevilla can qualified to quarterfinal i think they can be counted as underdog team who possibly can makes favourite teams such as Arsenal and Manchester United to slipped so these teams should beware of them

Winning on aggregate in the first leg made Sevilla even more confident that they would qualify for the next round. But they have to get through the second leg at home to Fenerbache before confirming their ticket to qualify. I think here Sevilla will be able to hold Fenerbache's game at home, chances are they only conceded 1 goal in the second leg later. But indeed maintaining results is not always safe, therefore Sevilla must appear to attack to score goals and widen the aggregate distance.

But indeed maintaining results is not always safe, therefore Sevilla must appear to attack to score goals and widen the aggregate distance.

I personally believe that Sevilla will not have the ambition to be able to score goals in the second leg later. After all, in the previous match when Sevilla played against PSV, in fact, in the second leg, Sevilla did not make a big effort to score a goal. So yes, I think Sevilla will just rely on the aggregate wins they already have, because Sevilla also have to continue to improve their position in La Liga.

Indeed, relying only on aggregate wins has a big risk. But if Sevilla has a good and disciplined defense then of course that will make Sevilla fine. But indeed, it would be better for Sevilla to keep on targeting to win also in the second leg later.

although Sevilla has a chance to qualify for the next round. but I'm not sure Sevilla will survive in the next round when they have to face stronger teams.
Seville's appearance this season has been very chaotic. In La Liga, Sevilla is still struggling to get away from the relegation zone. after being depressed in the relegation zone, now they are playing better and collecting points to survive in La Liga next season.
but to do better in the Europa League, I'm afraid they won't get a better chance than where they are right now. there are better teams in the Europa League than Sevilla.

I don't think it's something to think about right now because we'll see first who the next opponent they will face. for now maybe Sevilla will try hard to focus on the second leg even though they have won in the first leg but in the second leg I don't think they should be in a dilemma with the advantage of the first leg considering their unstable performance.

as you said it's true, Sevilla is not the team that is superior in the Europa league this season because their performance has dropped dramatically this season let alone their squad depth which is relatively not too strong when they will be faced with a stronger team.

[CLS63]

Arsenal and Manchester United are the biggest favourites for the Europa League title obviously. Manchester United have already secured their ticket for the next stage. I assume Betis wouldn't be able to turn things around despite being 4-1 behind on aggregate. Manchester United seemed really strong despite their huge loss against Liverpool in the Premier League. It is good for them to have a strong mental right now.

As for Arsenal maybe they got a draw by 2-2 in the first leg but they are still the favourite of the matchup by far. Besides Arsenal were the much better playing side in that match anyway. I just expect them to increase their domination level and finish off Sporting in Emirates.

Manchester united has the qualities of winning the europa league but it is not still certain becoming the champion of the league will go to them. Anything can happen along the line, football can not be predicted and their other good teams that are good to win the europa league too.

Despite their loss to Liverpool, Manchester United demonstrated once again that they are the masters of the game against Real Betis. In the Europa League, Real Betis have no chance against Manchester United. We should concentrate on teams that have a chance to compete with them. I see Arsenal as a strong contender alongside them; I hope they don't meet soon and meet in the finals.

The few days successes should t warrant us to talk too much about a club who just gave out 7 goals in one match match.
Anything can happen in football especially in a league that is made up of different team's from different nations with different ideologies of football. Manchester United is in good form, but with the surprise against Liverpool, I don't trust them enough,  not even to an extent of believing they could escape the next phase not to talk more of reaching the final.

That is my hope as well. Seeing Arsenal and Manchester United meeting in this tournament too early on would definitely take away a lot of thrill from the later stages in the tournament. If it were to happen that these two teams meet in the final, it would be an outstanding final that we all could be looking forward to.

Frankly speaking that is a long way to go though and comes down to luck whether or not the two teams get put up against each other or not.

I also think that Arsenal isn't through yet. Their chances are good of course as they have their home game against Sporting, but the game still needs to be played and I wouldn't consider Sporting all too weak. In a good game they might cause Arsenal quite some trouble.
