UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season

This season UEFA Europa league is something no one would want to miss because most of the teams like you have just said now are the top dogs of the competition and I believe Liverpool and Bayern Leverkusen are going to make the competition really competitive. For me it's strange seeing the likes of two teams topping their league play out in the Europa league which comes second in European football competition after the champions league and I also think the champion might come from these two teams although there are still lots of teams to watch out for .

Europa League this season seems different because it has different favorite which is Liverpool. I cant remember the last time top teams being favorite in Europa League, because it used to be Sevilla, LoL. The presence of such high-profile teams does make this edition particularly intriguing, and their participation elevates the overall competitiveness. This adds to the prestige of the tournament. The fact that two league-topping teams are part of the Europa League speaks volumes about the strength and depth of European football.

While Liverpool, Bayer Leverkusen and AC Milan are strong contenders, the unpredictability of football means that several other teams will also pose significant challenges. The competition is filled with talented and ambitious squads that makes it difficult to predict the ultimate winner. As the tournament unfolds, football fans can look forward to thrilling matches and potential upsets, keeping the Europa League just as captivating as its more prestigious counterpart, the UEFA Champions League.

You said something right, friend, that UEL is not like CL which is easy to predict because it is occupied by big clubs and popular players which makes it easier for us to predict the final result.
But in the UEL it is very difficult because usually there are many clubs that are a little inconsistent in the domestic league points table but surprisingly can win the title in the UEL as you said and maybe right now the only ones who look strong are Leverkusen and Liverpool but just look and see there will definitely be surprises that will happen and I really believe that one of the strongest popular clubs in UEL will experience problems and the club's performance will decline.

I think having strong clubs like Liverpool and Leverkusen in the UEL will make every match interesting to watch. Liverpool is the current leader of the English league standings as well as Leverkusen who are unbeaten in the Bundesliga. Seeing these two teams compete with several teams that are not favored will make each match very interesting to watch. For me, seeing a team that is not seeded is able to at least provide resistance is something interesting, because they all play in UEL. This is the same as when you see big teams competing against each other in the UCL.

The general performance of Liverpool and Bayer Leverkusen since the start of the league in all competitions including the UEFA Europa League competition is the reason why the competition have been very interesting to football lovers this season. After the group stage of the UEFA champions league was concluded, eight other strong teams who finished third in their respective groups automatically qualified to play in the UEL but despite their presence, it's still obvious that the two strongest teams in the competitive are still Liverpool and Bayer Leverkusen.

The two teams finished at the top of their respective groups and would which means that are gonna resume in the round of 16 of the competition and because of their consistency this season, I won't be surprised if the two teams makes it to the final of the competition.

Winning Liverpool and Bayer Leverkusen are very favorites for now but I believe in the know out round anything is possible to happen and also the teams that are in the last 16 of the Europa League are the best teams so their percentage does not have much bigger compared to other teams. other team.
And as far as I know, in the Europa League a lot of surprises have happened, so it's the same with the Europa League this season, so it's possible that there will be big surprises, and I believe that.

Last season Liverpool's performance was not good at all but this season they are able to show good performance so far.  Last season Manchester City ended the season by winning the title and at the beginning of the season Manchester City seemed to be more favorites to win the Premier League title but with Liverpool's current performance Liverpool is undoubtedly a big name to win the English Premier League. The teams in the English Premier League are stronger than all the teams in the European League, so if Liverpool can win the English Premier League title, they can definitely win the European League title. To reach the final of the Europa League, Liverpool must play according to the rules in the next matches, but Liverpool can win the Europa League title for the first time.

As a team with a big history, Liverpool has also won the European League title in the past. It's just that Liverpool have failed to win it in many seasons because Liverpool tend to often qualify for the Champions League. This season Liverpool have the opportunity to win the Europa League title, of course if they manage to beat whoever is the challenger.

Liverpool's performance this season has improved compared to last season, but that does not make Liverpool the only team that has the potential to win the title. In the Premier League, Liverpool had to try hard to thwart the efforts of Arsenal, Tottenham, Aston Villa and Manchester City, so I wouldn't say the title was easy for Liverpool this season.

If it's easy, I don't think so. Because the point difference with its competitors is still thin. can't widen the significant point gap.
And last night, Liverpool played a full team only without fault only won narrowly against the bottom mid-table team Fulham 2-1 that was left behind even though playing at home in Anfield. if this season is easy to win the primiere league champions I don't think there is still a long journey there are still 18 more matches to determine the English league champions.

You're right, this season does seem different, with Liverpool being one of the favorites. In the past, Sevilla has been a dominant force in the Europa League. The presence of top teams like Liverpool, Bayer Leverkusen, and AC Milan definitely adds to the excitement and competitiveness of the tournament. However, football can be unpredictable,so we can’t predict the winner, and there are several other talented teams that could pose significant challenges. It's difficult to predict the team that will win, but that's what makes the Europa League so captivating. As the tournament unfolds, we can look forward to thrilling matches and potential upsets.

Although Champions are always the champions, not always in football. If not, I will say Sevilla have already kept a great history in the UEFA League so far with seven trophies, which no one has ever kept. Although we can't predict, I have trust in Sevilla; they might be the winners of this season also because history always repeats itself.

To reach the final of the Europa League, Liverpool must play according to the rules in the next matches, but Liverpool can win the Europa League title for the first time.

Contrarily Liverpool did started off on a relatively fair note last season but then towards the end of the season they recorded some set backs that got them missing an opportunity at the trophy and probably qualifying for the champions league, they rather made it to the Europa which wasn't worse after all.

This season has been a really different season for Liverpool when compared to their performance last season, they have so much of brilliance in their performance this seems such that they have turn out to be one of the favourite to winning both the premier and Europa league titles by the end of this season. All Liverpool may need at This time is the ability to continually maintain their consistency and staying productive from every of their next games they play.

That what Liverpool must look after at the moments if they are currently performing very well I hope that toward the end of the season they don't experienced any setbacks because that will further distance them from the chances of winning the Premier League title. Liverpool really want to break the dominance of Manchester City, which for the last 3 seasons, Manchester City has always wons the title, while Liverpool is hungry for the Premier League trophy because their last trophy was in the 2019/20 season before Manchester City always dominated.

Hopefully this season will be a very good season for Liverpool to win the title but Manchester City, Aston Villa and Arsenal are still under heavy pressure because these clubs still have the opportunity to winning the top position, as well as in the Europa League, Leverkusen is quite a tough rival for Liverpool so I just hope that Liverpool doesn't lose the balanced of having a busy schedule and quite tough competition in fighting for the title.

Generally, Bayern Leverkusen have quit well performance winning all matches round group than Liverpool have losses 2 of 6 matches, its drastically difference performance between both teams although Liverpool have quit well consistent in Premier League know more competitive than Bundesliga. Bayern Leverkusen have manage well unbeaten on match phase and success become the only one Europe League teams fewest conceded three goals of 6 matches than Liverpool have conceded 7 goals.
I think Bayern Leverkusen have dominance with statistic from unbeaten teams, scored many goals and conceded fewest goals only and I sure for Leverkusen have more favorite than Liverpool or other teams participants eliminated from Champion League. I hope Leverkusen and Liverpool not face on 16 round because both teams become ideal final for Europe League season 2023/24 or one of them have left until final round.

And as far as I know, in the Europa League a lot of surprises have happened, so it's the same with the Europa League this season, so it's possible that there will be big surprises, and I believe that.

In terms of percentage chances, Liverpool and Leverkusen are in a high percentage, and that then becomes the basis for many people to say that they might become champions this season. Their game is very promising this season and they are doing well in all competitions, especially in the domestic league and European league group stage.
But we also can't underestimate other clubs, because as you said here, surprises usually happen that we don't think about beforehand. Last season there were favorite names here, but they still couldn't move freely and they even had to be eliminated early. Now it could happen again or those who are now favorites will be able to answer that they really are favorites.

Playing and winning in UEFA competitions never work on percentages it's mostly happened on game day and performance of the team on game day as like in last season we have Arsenal and Manchester United as hot favorite but suddenly Sevilla steal the show and win the cup in this season we have Liverpool and Bayer Leverkusen on limelight for the cup but still things can go either way with now we have few more teams into cup which are capable of winning and having good performance on match day.

AC Milan and AS Roma are also good sides even facing some problems but still can go through with Galatasaray and Benfica are also in good shape, and we can expect good results from them in coming matches which are surely going to have good entertaining with few teams are strengthened their squads with new players and this is surely going to have good impact on their performance.

[Velvet78]

I hope we see some new transfers by Roma in this month by the way otherwise the rest of the season wouldn't probably be much different for them in the league at least. But in the Europa League we never know. Maybe they can reach the finale again at least.

Your hopes of seeing Roma new recruits may come true soon because Roma have reportedly agreed to borrow Dean Huijsen from Juventus, but if you want to see Roma's great signings this season then you have to be prepared to be disappointed because Roma reportedly only has a small budget for spending players and even according to the Italian media, Mourinho is only allowed to borrow players and not buy because currently Roma is still under UEFA's Financial Fair Play supervision, so it is very difficult to see star players coming to Roma on loan, I think with conditions like now Mourinho can't be blamed if he fails to bring Roma to the Uefa league final, because with the current squad it will be very difficult for Mourinho to reach the final in my opinion and even in the league we can see how Roma are still teetering at 8th place in Serie A with only 8 wins from 19 matches, so what can we expect from Roma in the European league at the moment.?

The only thing we can expect from Roma is to be like Sevilla when it comes to the Europa League.    For example you must remember how Sevilla were in the previous season. They were in a really bad condition in the La Liga. But in the meantime they started to do great things after dropping down to the Europa League from the Champions League.

I mean their journey ended up with even becoming the champions.    Maybe there might be some hope for Roma to be successful here as well while doing inconsistent work in the Serie A on one hand. Mourinho's team reached the finale of the Europa League in the previous season.

We can't predict about any team about win of title because it's a long way to go and any significant change or injury can bring all team down like, we have few problems in Arsenal which was at the top and now having serious trouble Liverpool is fighting hard in four competitions with three are having good chance for them but still it's not easy as mentioned in last game against Fulham they were struggling which is surely concern for them.

Now they are going to play without their main striker Mohammad Salah which is surely going to have impact on their performance if they want to win then surely they need to give their best specially their star players need to be act like they are not missing Mohammad Salah because this is going to be big physiological difference for them.

Yes, Liverpool and Leverkusen in the UEL liven things up. Imagine two heavyweights in a league full of shocks. Liverpool's English league domination and Leverkusen's Bundesliga unbeaten streak? That's football entertainment gold. Remember, the UEL statistics aren't fabricated. They topped their groups, indicating intent. I expect these two to reach the tournament's finals. They make every match worth watching, especially in an unpredictable competition. How about watching underdogs fight giants?

Liverpool and Leverkusen are giants in the Europa League, this label is attached to them because they have succeeded in dominating their respective domestic leagues. Liverpool managed to surpass the points accumulated by Manchester City, who have always managed to win the EPL in recent years, while Leverkusen enthusiastically managed to maintain their best performance which made it difficult for Bayern Munich to catch them. Seeing them in the Europa League Final is a dream come true, these two teams will pit their strengths against each other in a fierce battle for a prestigious title.

[Godday]

I mean their journey ended up with even becoming the champions.    Maybe there might be some hope for Roma to be successful here as well while doing inconsistent work in the Serie A on one hand. Mourinho's team reached the finale of the Europa League in the previous season.

That is a great achievement. But I think this season is a little difficult because people are favorites for Liverpool to be UEL champions this season. There were also AC Milan and several clubs from the Champions League competing. I can only believe that Roma will be able to bring success to the European league if they succeed in advancing to the next round by beating Feyenoord. Feyenoord is ranked 2nd in the Eredivise and they are one of the strongest in the European league. This will be a good situation to assess Roma's abilities this season.

To reach the final of the Europa League, Liverpool must play according to the rules in the next matches, but Liverpool can win the Europa League title for the first time.

After a disappointing season, they're now major challengers in the Premier League and Europa League. I've always thought Liverpool could excel on both fronts despite opposition from Arsenal, Tottenham, and Manchester City. The ride wont be easy. Their tight win against Fulham at Anfield shows no room for complacency. With so many matches left, they must maintain this momentum.

Liverpool's season shows their endurance and ability without large signings. Its impressive how they're doing better with a lesser team than previous season. This shows that teamwork and strategy are more important than star-studded lineups. I hope they win the Europa League; it would be great after missing out on the Champions League last season.

Too good to be true, roma is strong but it's still far below leverkusen and liverpool. Did you forget that if we have acmilan and galatasaray as well? This is not a good thing for roma caused by last season was far easier compared with this time. Mourinho needs to think even harder to strengthen its club especially on its attacking line. I am unable to provide a comment on the performance of AS Roma as it has been inconsistent and unpredictable. It's still far below liverpool which is very consistent in all of competitions.
Leverkusen was just reaching bayern munich's level too after it was sitting at the first position of bundesliga. So, it doesn't even make sense to call roma to win the trophy. Roma is not a weak team but this is not ready yet to winning europa league this season.
It's time for roma to prove it. I personally took liverpool as my favorite club to win europa league this season. Liverpool has been doing it a few years ago but it's still good to get europa league this season caused by it can try to make sure it will have a spot in UCL next season through winning europa league this season.

There were also AC Milan and several clubs from the Champions League competing. I can only believe that Roma will be able to bring success to the European league if they succeed in advancing to the next round by beating Feyenoord. Feyenoord is ranked 2nd in the Eredivise and they are one of the strongest in the European league. This will be a good situation to assess Roma's abilities this season.

Mourinho always has a way of surprising him. I believe Milan and Roma can follow to compete with Liverpool and Leverkusen.
I know Liverpool are more favorites this season for the Europa League trophy. but competition is still nowhere to be seen. We are still waiting for several follow-up teams for the next round and we will map out several clubs that will be very ready and worthy of this season's competition.

[Volgastallion]

This Roma still dont have the solid eprformance you need to win something, you can look yesterday they lsoe against Lazio the derby for the Copa Italia, and they dont have a good match, also in Serie A theya re not doing so good, and they have a much more reinforce team than in previous seasons.

[QueenVera]

You're right, this season does seem different, with Liverpool being one of the favorites. In the past, Sevilla has been a dominant force in the Europa League. The presence of top teams like Liverpool, Bayer Leverkusen, and AC Milan definitely adds to the excitement and competitiveness of the tournament. However, football can be unpredictable,so we can’t predict the winner, and there are several other talented teams that could pose significant challenges. It's difficult to predict the team that will win, but that's what makes the Europa League so captivating. As the tournament unfolds, we can look forward to thrilling matches and potential upsets.

Although Champions are always the champions, not always in football. If not, I will say Sevilla have already kept a great history in the UEFA League so far with seven trophies, which no one has ever kept. Although we can't predict, I have trust in Sevilla; they might be the winners of this season also because history always repeats itself.

Liverpool are one of the many favorites to won tHE UEL because of their vast experience and the form they’re. We’ve got some other fantastic teams too with the likes of Leverkusen and AC Milan. And football has gone past what could be easily predicted as we’ve teams now who could pose crazy challenges and probably steal the wins as underdogs. This alone makes this competition quite fierce.

 Sevilla is one underdog team to be scared of especially after winning the UEL for good number of 7 times, they know the ins and out of the competition and they could be treat to other competitors in the tournament based on their previous good record, also let's not forget that they're the title defenders, which makes them a team to look out for, despite their poor performance in their domestic league and UCL.

Since Emery left Villarreal their situation has changed slightly but it is not impossible for them to focus more on the Europa League now rather than looking at La Liga.

Not that La Liga is not very important in this case but if you look at their current condition it must be difficult to compete in the race for the Europa League or Champions League because they are currently still scattered in the middle standings so surely their priority will be in the Europa League and it was seen when Villarreal performed quite well in the Europa League group phase.
The current situation is actually almost the same as Sevilla did last season but of course that doesn't mean they can walk free in this competition because after all, looking at the opportunities that exist for them at this time Villarreal is just a dark horse for the Europa League.

In this particular competition, I have never doubted him since I watched how he dealt with Manchester United and also with Liverpool.
Liverpool he won while he was manager of  Sevilla and Manchester United he won on penalties while he was manager for Villarreal football club.
They're not in a good position and place right now. 13 position? I can remember him using Villarreal to knock out Bayern Munich from the Champions League also, he's that good just like he's done with Aston Villa.

Since he's not in this Competition, I'll be rooting for either of Xabi Alonso,  Gennaro Gattuso and lastly Jose Mourinho to win the trophy. Liverpool are also big European giants alongside AC Milan. Anything can happen.

Previously Villarreal under Emery was quite surprising especially when beating Bayernd in the Quarter Final that I think is amazing for a dark horse club even though in the end they also had to fall in the semifinals but that was their best achievement under Emery because apart from being able to make a good performance in the Champions League they were also quite stable in La Liga but now they have dropped out of domestic competition and it is a little difficult to return to a decent position because they are focusing on being at the top of the Europa League but La Liga they are struggling to get a decent position.

For Leverkusen, they are currently on a good track and I think they can currently be a strong candidate for the championship apart from Liverpool but of course they still have to prove this with their appearance on the field because until now if you look at the strength of the club Liverpool is the club that has the highest probability of getting the title until now.

Since Emery left Villarreal their situation has changed slightly but it is not impossible for them to focus more on the Europa League now rather than looking at La Liga.

Not that La Liga is not very important in this case but if you look at their current condition it must be difficult to compete in the race for the Europa League or Champions League because they are currently still scattered in the middle standings so surely their priority will be in the Europa League and it was seen when Villarreal performed quite well in the Europa League group phase.
The current situation is actually almost the same as Sevilla did last season but of course that doesn't mean they can walk free in this competition because after all, looking at the opportunities that exist for them at this time Villarreal is just a dark horse for the Europa League.

I agree that they should have kept Emery if they can, but at the same time he got an offer from Villa and right now he is second place in premier league. Nobody in the world would have expected Aston Villa to be second place in the premier league after 20+ games played, which means that the dude is doing amazing and should probably considered one of the best managers of our era, or at least current era, and that is why I am expecting him and Xabi to be head of some huge giant clubs in the future.

Villareal couldn't hold a manager like that, it just wasn't possible, he did all he could for the team and team should have taken advantage of that situation, financially, and have a long term plan. Turns out, they had none, the moment he left, they started to be bad again.

I don't know the specific reason for this but what is busy in the media is because Emery's tenure at Villarreal was running out at that time and there were 2 offers from Newcastle and Aston Villa so indeed he went straight to Aston Villa even though at that time Aston Villa was threatened from a position in the domestic standings.
Maybe he also got what he wanted there because after all, while at Villarreal Emery had won several trophies including the Europa League Champion after beating Manchester United on penalties which was very mentally draining.
