UEFA Europa League 2022/23 Season

[Alanaz]

Seville is favorite for the the title, they have won it several times and they personalized this trophy, they won int he league weekend game, that's another boost for them to face Inform Juventus too. Its gonna be an interesting game, but Seville is ahead for Juventus.

The Roman and Bayern Leverkusen is one game I'll shake all my money on Roma team. Mourinho is an experienced coach and he will use all tactics to win this game.
I'm looking at Roma and Seville finals.

Sevilla's chances of winning the European league this time are quite large compared to Juventus, Roma or Leverkusen, they are regular champions of the European league

apart from that in the 1st leg against Juventus, they have shown their capacity as a team that always wins in the European league, even Allegri too admitted that the match against Sevilla was a difficult match

Sevilla has proved their seriousness of getting the Europa championship with Manchester United and they were able to kick Manchester United out from europa league and they are on Juventus and they will still do the same to Juventus.  Seville are really trying in their games in Europa League.

Sevilla is the team that got rid of Manchester United, which is predicted to be the champion this season. Now they face another favourite, interestingly they can hold Juventus to a draw at home. This is clearly an advantage for them, because in the second leg they will be fully motivated when they play at home. Sevilla really cannot be underestimated when they are in the Europa League.

Unique best team in terms of what??
The team is still struggling with Europa league and are only not in a good position in La Liga. They drew Juventus at Allianz Stadium and that is undoubtedly a good result but not as good as you speak of it. Devil's is only doing things extraordinary in the Europa League and that is the league I will say they are good at. They even have more Europa League titles than La Liga titles. Sevilla has won 3 matches out of 5 last match result is in the 10th position in la liga standing. In general, there is nothing too special about Sevilla.

I assumed historical when I read that, not in a seasonal aspect but like the name of sevilla will go on even on seasons when they are bad. I wouldn't know though, that is what I understood and I agreed with that point of thinking, it looks like they did something quite amazing with europa so far and if they win it again then they will be historically known as the team that is best at europa, no other team has been as good as them.

I think they are already there, but on a season they are bad at the league and still end up beating so many teams that are considered better than them and still get the title? That would establish them as the eeuropa cup team. Same as Real, they are not good at the league, and yet they are a force at champions league anyway.

[Leviathan.007]

I would also say that Sevilla is very lucky to have qualified for the semi-finals of the Europa League. At the same time, the Sevilla team is very tactical. I watched Sevilla's performance against Fenerbahçe. I don't think Sevilla played very well. The draw in the first leg against Manchester United was entirely due to Sevilla's good luck. But now Sevilla's performance is much more organized. Sevilla is able to perform well not only in Europa League matches but also in every La Liga match. I think Sevilla will dominate the second leg against Juventus and qualify for the final.

I don't think Sevilla appeared in Europa League semi finals because they are simply lucky. They eliminated Manchester United very impressively in quarter finals and if you watched their first semi final with Juventus, they are very strong. Juventus only avoided a loss at their home stadium with a very late equalizer.
From the first leg, Sevilla will return to amon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium with a good result from a first leg, they will also get support from their loyal fans and good result from quarter final. I really think that Sevilla will only become a stronger and more dangerous club at their stadium. It will give them bigger chance to beat Juventus and have another final match in Europa League.

Sevilla's performance in the Round of 16 and Group Stage was not very good. However, the Sevilla team performed well in the second leg against Manchester United and in the first leg against Juventus. And now in La Liga, this team has been able to continue to perform well. And I think Sevilla will be able to perform better in the home match against Juventus. The Juventus team is very strong. But their performance is not regular. Juventus' performance against Sevilla in the home match was very poor. They attacked very little. If Juventus play the same strategy in the second leg, they will not win.

Unlike the games we saw from Sevilla at the beginning of the season and a few weeks ago, they are performing much better and after beating Manchester United a few weeks ago Sevilla is in a better situation to even beat Juventus for another time in the second leg. I think considering the previous games from Sevilla and Juventus there is much more chance for Sevilla to win this match.

[rahmad2nd]

I'm sure Sevilla and Roma will both advance to the Europa League final this season. I didn't expect the two Serie A teams to meet in the final. The two candidates from the domestic league should have clashed in the final this season.

Sevilla is the most favorite team in the second leg which will be played at their home. I'm not underestimating Juventus, but Sevilla have a good record that needs to be considered before deciding who deserves to be favourites. Sevilla's form is good, Juventus is also good in the last match. If two La Liga teams reach the European final this season, then of course it is proof that Spain still dominates Europe.

Obviously, you wouldn't expect it. because it hasn't happened yet. in fact, the second leg has not been held. for Sevilla vs Juventus, the two teams still have a chance because no one is superior on aggregate. IMO, Sevilla's only advantage is because they are playing at their own base. technically, neither Sevilla nor Juventus showed an interesting game. in fact, both teams made a lot of mistakes during the match in the first leg. meaning, we can't say for sure which team will qualify for the final round.

On the other hand, Leverkusen vs AS Roma. in the first leg, Roma won the match. but technically, the game is quite balanced. in the second leg, Leverkusen played as the home team. of course, they have the opportunity to beat Roma at Leverkusen's own headquarters. I'm quite curious, what system will be applied by Jose Mourinho in the match later. for Bayern Leverkusen, it is very likely that they will play with an offensive system and carry out pressing since the first half whistle was sounded. how it turns out, we'll see later.

But suppose, if AS Roma and Sevilla enter the final technically, AS Roma is far superior to Sevilla.

[klidex]

Juventus will be get the real test once it will be playing away. I guess that if sevilla will be trying so hard to win against juventus. 1-0 is enough for sevilla to be qualified for final that will happen in budapest.
I can't even wait for the match to begin soon.

I don't know why I'm expecting Juventus to qualify for the finals even though everyone hopes Sevilla will qualify but I only see the performance of these two clubs in my view that Juventus have a bigger chance and it will be very interesting if Juventus qualify.
I think Juventus will use an attacking strategy in the first half after this for sure they will defend in the second half and for me it will be better if Juventus can score 2 goals.

I'm looking at Roma and Seville finals.

Sevilla is the king in the europa league where they have won 6 europa league trophies. Now juventus sits in third place by collecting 3 europa league trophies even Liverpool and juventus are in the same order meaning they are only under sevilla. Therefore I'm not quite sure that Sevilla will be able to overthrow Juventus in the second leg later, even though Sevilla host the match, but I'm sure Juventus can provide quite a fierce resistance in this decisive match.

For Juventus, they are in pretty good performance after managing to maintain a streak of wins in Serie A which will make them more confident to do a better job when they travel to Sevilla headquarters. The chances of these two teams are quite equal because they drew in the first leg.

In fact, it's not wrong to expect anyone to be in the final because it depends on each other's perspective, especially now that their chances are still there for both Sevilla and Juventus.
Sevilla playing home will obviously get high confidence but that doesn't mean Juventus will also play badly because indeed in this case they could win with the squad they have now because seeing from their actual condition and Sevilla are also still in a state of improvement in terms of performance .

Sevilla's performance in the Round of 16 and Group Stage was not very good. However, the Sevilla team performed well in the second leg against Manchester United and in the first leg against Juventus. And now in La Liga, this team has been able to continue to perform well. And I think Sevilla will be able to perform better in the home match against Juventus. The Juventus team is very strong. But their performance is not regular. Juventus' performance against Sevilla in the home match was very poor. They attacked very little. If Juventus play the same strategy in the second leg, they will not win.

I see Sevilla's chances are much bigger than Juventus, playing 1-1 at Juventus opens up opportunities for Sevilla because they will face Juventus in the second leg at home. We saw this exactly when they faced Manchester United at Old Trafford and Sevilla crushed Manchester United's big dream at home. I won't jump to conclusions too quickly who will qualify for the final, but I want to see how Allegri and Mendilibar's strategy is first.
Playing at home is a very profitable thing, where Sevilla's motivation will be even greater, especially talking about Sevilla's Mentality in the Europa League and I have never doubted them so far. For Juventus it will be a difficult match and I'm sure they will find it difficult against Sevilla, because speaking of quality for me the two are not much different.

I think it is actually going to be 50-50. I don't think it is clear who the winner is going to be. The first leg was very interesting.  Juventus had possession of 60%. They could not form coordinated attacks in my opinion. Sevilla took advantage of that. Outside that Juventus did not deserve to lose that match. It was actually good to see Juventus getting a draw that they actually deserved in my opinion.

I just do not see a clear winner in this match. I believe it is going to be evenly matched and very competitive between both of them.

[emrecemsan]

The advantage Roma captured by a 1-0 win is important of course. However I still don't see this score much safe for them at the same time. Because we are talking about another dedicated team like Leverkusen under Xabi Alonso's management. I believe in them fully about not giving up until the final whistle in the second leg. They have shown this dedication example so far in the tournament many times you know. The first leg wasn't a one-sided match either. Leverkusen were just not having a good day to make use of the chances.

But in Germany we could see a very interesting scenario. Leverkusen seem to be focused on the Europa League more now so I expect them to be well-prepared for Roma. I think Roma will try to play more defensive this time especially while Mourinho is managing the team. Leverkusen had better play more efficient this time.

I think Juventus will use an attacking strategy in the first half after this for sure they will defend in the second half and for me it will be better if Juventus can score 2 goals.

Juventus employed a defensive strategy with 3-5-1-1 players, where the entire team contributed to protecting the goalkeeper. They had a lone offensive player and a striker, entrusting the task of creating goal-scoring opportunities to just two players. However, as the game progressed, Di Maria grew exhausted and could no longer provide assistance but Pogba came to the rescue with a brilliant assist, leading to a goal by Federico. I hope that Juventus does not repeat the same mistake they made in the first leg.

Sevilla also made a significant breakthrough in the early stages of the match but failed to pay enough attention to the substituted players but, to be fair, every player in Sevilla is performing admirably in their quest to eliminate Juventus. If they succeed, I will wholeheartedly applaud them for their achievement, as they truly deserve it.

[Masplanc]

From the start, Arsenal, Manchester United and Juventus were the biggest favorites to win the Europa League this season, but the fact is now they (Arsenal and Manchester United) had to be eliminated first. Now only Juventus are left of the 3 teams I mentioned earlier. Now they are also under a very big threat after they could only draw in the first leg. AS Roma is now one step further to be in the final.

I was thinking Europa league will be one of the trophy arsenal will win for the season,  bit they could not achieve it. No team is putting effort in the league the way  Sevilla are putting much effort.  Sevilla has good chances of winning Europa league this season.

Leverkusen's current problem is still in their performance condition. It's a pity that in the previous few weeks they were quite good, but for now they are a little stuck.
Actually, I still believe in Leverkusen in the second leg, but for that to happen, Xabi needs to improve the mentality of the players so that they are more motivated to be in the final later.

[Pulsar77]

These are the odds for the rematch of the Roma v Leverkusen matchup by the way. There is quite a decent gap between the odds of these teams for the win now. Leverkusen are of course favoured for the win home but truthfully I would have expected much closer odds here. Because we have all watched how tight the first leg was.

I think we are likely to watch another tight competition in the rematch. Especially if Mourinho's system in defense works decently this can cause big problems for Leverkusen to have an advantage. In my humble opinion, Leverkusen will still carry this matchup to extra time at least and we might even find out about the winner by penalty shoot-outs.

It depends on Roma's extra time effort of course after seeing their great job against Feyenoord before.  

[temple]

We'll see what happens in a few days, in general we can expect anything, because I still don't consider Juventus a weak team despite their relatively poor performance this season. The Italian team has no particular problem in defence, so maybe they can hold off Sevilla's attack

I believe that at this stage of the competition there is not much value in referring to what the teams did or are doing in their respective national competitions. What does it help Juventus when Sevilla has been performing poorly so far in La Liga? You can make some guesses whether a loss in the last game could have some influence on the next game, which happens to be in the Europa League, but does it really help anything? I don't think so and neither Juventus nor Sevilla will really look at what the teams are doing in the league. They know that the have to play their best possible game or otherwise they are likely doomed to fail. Their approach should be to play as if this game was a final already and thinking about it, it essentially is a final. A final to the final so to say.

Leverkusen have to be very careful while playing Roma in the second leg.
Like you said, Roma will be kind of defensive and Leverkusen will attack a lot. Mourinho is used to that pattern of football.
He can defend all night and make used of the little chances he gets. Roma have players to play that kind of football too. So while Leverkusen is attacking and looking for a way to cancel the deficit goal they have, they should also be careful of how Roma can hurt them.
Its going to be a very interesting match because these are two exciting teams that are very focused on the Europa league.

Agreed, the draw is really unacceptable result from juventus. Juventus was a big team but it played so badly against sevilla. I don't even know why any team that faces sevilla was getting many problems. Juventus must be careful in the second leg. Sevilla may able to lead the game caused by it will be playing in sevilla's home. The small chance for juventus to win the game against sevilla. Sevilla was always getting good result when it was playing at home. I think that it's the time for juventus to use fully defensive strategy against sevilla.
I will prefer to see juventus to use counter attack against sevilla. it will be very useful as sevilla is always trying to dominate the ball possession which has become a new trend in the modern football.
Juventus must only kill the movements from its strikers. Sevilla may be using offensive stretegy against juventus to avoid penalty caused by juventus has a very good keeper right now.

Actually, I still believe in Leverkusen in the second leg, but for that to happen, Xabi needs to improve the mentality of the players so that they are more motivated to be in the final later.

Leverkusen must be able to fix whatever problems they are facing if Leverkusen want to continue to perform well in the second leg of the Europa League this season even though Leverkusen are already one goal behind on aggregate in the first leg. But Leverkusen still has the opportunity to make an aggregate that is more profitable for him, even though Leverkusen also knows that their opponent is a team that is not weak so that whatever they are facing before the second leg takes place, Leverkusen must really be able to fix it.

The advantage Roma captured by a 1-0 win is important of course. However I still don't see this score much safe for them at the same time.

They have shown this dedication example so far in the tournament many times you know. The first leg wasn't a one-sided match either. Leverkusen were just not having a good day to make use of the chances.

At least roma is leading in the aggregate. Mourinho can also try to analyze the previous match to determine the best strategy for the second leg. Xabi was using modern strategy which was focusing in the ball possessions.

The best strategy to counter this by implementing parking buss strategy to make its players become frustated and roma can make chance to do counter attack against leverkusen.
It seems like that roma is a bit superior this time compared with leverkusen. I prefer to pick roma.

But in Germany we could see a very interesting scenario. Leverkusen seem to be focused on the Europa League more now so I expect them to be well-prepared for Roma. I think Roma will try to play more defensive this time especially while Mourinho is managing the team. Leverkusen had better play more efficient this time.

Playing fully offensive against leverkusen away will be a very bad decision for as roma. Levekusen will be trying so hard to cretes so many attack against as roma. Mourinho must be thinking which the best strategy for roma. The only best choice to implement defensive - counter attack strategy.
Roma can wait for the leverkusen to have sloppy performance or blunder during the game. It will able to give roma ability to counter it.

I prefer to see roma to play fully defensive to win the game. Draw or win is good for roma but leverkusen must be winning by making more than 1 goals with clean sheet against roma.

Now only Juventus are left of the 3 teams I mentioned earlier. Now they are also under a very big threat after they could only draw in the first leg. AS Roma is now one step further to be in the final.

I think, there is a hope for Juventus to win this second leg because they were able to to draw the first leg 1-1 in the Roma home that made many people to believe that the second leg will not be a tough match, because Juventus are good in using home advantage to achieve victory. I don't think, Juventus can stop Roma not to score goal in this match because their strikers will definitely score goal in this match but Juventus will embrace the victory at the end of the match. Based on some tactics Juventus players displayed in this UEFA champions league tournament, showed that Juventus and Manchester city will be the strong teams to meet in final battle because Manchester city will defeat Real Madrid tomorrow with 2-1 to eliminate them from the tournament.

In my humble opinion, Leverkusen will still carry this matchup to extra time at least and we might even find out about the winner by penalty shoot-outs.

It depends on Roma's extra time effort of course after seeing their great job against Feyenoord before.  

This time it's different from what they will face when they can finally beat Feyenoord, because this time AS Roma will be the away team whereas when they beat Feyenoord it was done as a home team so the pressure will be very different this time, that's why Leverkusen are the favorites to win this match but the difference in odds is not that great so Rome's chances remain, and any outcome is possible including penalty shootouts

Bayern Leverkusen not only needs a win but also a goal margin of at least two so they will be advantaged in aggregate goals to Roma. We know that Xabi Alonso was like a pupil for Mourinho when both were at Real Madrid as a player and a coach, that's why during the first match the two coaches met very close and warm. Maybe Mourinho will be able to understand what strategy will be implemented by Alonso? so that Roma are able to anticipate the second match very well and also because they are already one goal ahead, a draw or defeat with a thin goal margin will still bring Roma to the European league final, or the opposite situation where students understand what strategy will be applied by the teacher.
Both coaches are quite smart coaches, but Mourinho is superior in experience and after last season was able to bring his team to the conference league championship, this season there is an opportunity to give a more prestigious title than last season's title, because this tournament will be Rome's only chance to get the title this season.
