UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season

[Oneandpure]

Roma played more attacking with De Rossi, scored more goals with this tactical change by a new coach but their defense system is still not strong enough. It contains weakness that can be exploited by Brighton in Europa League.

Meeting a club from another country, another league with different philosophy and tactical style is difficult. It will be a big challenging opponent for De Rossi and Roma to fight. Brighton is not a big club, has smaller tradition than Roma in Europe but they actually have good players and can beat Roma within only two matches.

I see Roma are a little bit stronger than Brighton but just a little bit stronger won't be enough to guarantee Roma will win Brighton after two matches.

AS Roma's performance under Daniel De Rossi was very different during the Jose Mourinho era, almost every match AS Roma was able to score lots of goals even though they had to concede goals, but Daniele De Rossi preferred more aggressive with offensive game plays than focus with defensive. Its very good tactical with the modern football era because the best defense is offense.
Next match in Europe League against Brighton Albion will likely playing more offensive become excited match for AS Roma, both teams will try to scores as many possibilities goals because Brighton Albion preferred on every match how to score many goals and bit chance keep focus on defense area.
I can't predict well which one team are favorable for winning the match between AS Roma or Brighton Albion, I can't compare with bad domestic league performance from Brighton Albion and not blame yet with impressive performance with AS Roma in domestic league matches.

Brighton performed so poorly recently but don't underestimate it. The history says that if a club that played so badly in the domestic league is not guaranteed to have the same result in another competition. Roma must always be ready to beat brightton. This is gonna be another great achievement from rossi if he can keep his winstreak with as roma.
Roma played even better compared to when mourinho was still there as a coach. Never try to doubt it caused by roma will come back stronger soon. The odds are quite good for roma considering the first leg will happen at home. Im not doubting the capability of rossi in this match.

Rossi is likely to win the first leg with good score against roma and fans shall believe on him. Rossi's result in roma is not as bad as some people might think and stop underestimating him by comparing him with jose mourinho. Even though mou gave roma a trophy it does not change the fact if rossi is better than him now.
The fans shall give him more credit instead of always judge him. So far so good. There's nothing to change from him in roma. Roma has become even more persistent compared to the last season.

Roma was only losing against intermilan since rossi became a new appointment and i must admit that if roma is very strong now. No club can stick on intermilan even juventus also has a very big gap with the intermilan.
Fans shall merit rossi current potential as a coach.

De Rossi just came and should be given time to show himself. They're playing the league games and as well as the European games, their attention is on 2 trophies, European trophy will be difficult for them and I don't think that currently De Rossi would be able to scale through all the clubs that will be presented to him to face in each advancement phase of the tournament. Even in the Serie A, it'll be difficult for them to gain the top stand so it's just best that they focus their strength and struggle to maintaining a good result that'll see them scale through to the European cups next season. De Rossi can still make a great team from Roma and their next games encounters are awaited.

 They played away to Monza last weekend and the game.outcomes actually went in their favor. They were able to confidently net in 4goals and this gave enough goal margin in the match today. Monza who were the host didn't actually make much effort, adding that they were up against a better side and nothing less or different from the final outcome was expected to happen. The odds were in Roma's favour and in their own part, they were able to perform and deliver rightly, adding an extra 3points to their league table points and this as well adds to the push and morale ahead of their next European cup game against Brighton.

 Brighton on the other hand, they've been impactful, currently striving to stay in shape in the Premier League too and so they've got same goal as Roma and therefore if in recent times they've remained at an average performance level, then I doubt that there'd be a negative difference now when the tournament and season is almost rounded up. For me, I'll really love to see the heated game between Roma and Brighton in the UEL soon though and I have a feeling that the game would practically end in a draw at the first leg but it's only best that one of the sides stands out more and secure the 3points ahead.

Leverkusen is expected to be one of the teams that can win the Europa League trophy this season, Xabi Alonso squad is now getting a lot of support from various circles. Thanks to the cool hands of Xabi Alonso, Leverkusen was transformed into a team challenging for the title in the Europa League, their unbeaten record puts them on par with Liverpool. In terms of momentum, this is the best season for Leverkusen, the Europa League trophy is the perfect complement to this season, Where the Bundesliga trophy and the DFB Pokal trophy are very close to them in this moment.

Bayer Leverkusen has showcased some performance in this competition that made people to changed their mind to conclude that they will be the team that will lift UEFA Europa league trophy this season because, they have the highest points in the competition table which is the advantage that will make them to achieve the trophy.

I believe Bayer Leverkusen coach have done a good job despite the tournament is not yet over, but the tournament will surely end for their favour for their coach to receive more honor from their president and fans for the good job well done.

[TheGreatPython]

I see Roma are a little bit stronger than Brighton but just a little bit stronger won't be enough to guarantee Roma will win Brighton after two matches.

I think everyone will favor Roma in that match. People don't even include Brighton as one of the strong candidates for UEFA European champions. Their performance in the English league has not been very good in the last few matches. They play inconsistently with wins and losses. This is different from Roma who became very good when coached by De Rossi. They only lost to Inter Milan which is the strongest team in Serie A. So I think Roma will win that match. But Brighton could be an underrated team and could surprise people. Let's see!

There is no doubt in first leg game Roma is favourite for the win and having chance of win as well because in recent matches their performance is very good, and they are playing aggressive soccer which is giving them good number of goals and positive results, but surely Brighton is also at his best and their performance is also much better in Premier League, so things are never been one-sided for the both sides because this is open game which team will perform better will be able to qualify for the next round and here prediction is not easy while both have equal chance and quality and performance level is also on level after De Rossi joined as coach he brings good results and now their chances are also improved for the good end of this season which was looking miserable under José Mourinho due to his defensive tactics.

[FanEagle]

Currently Roma continues to progress quite positively in the league after De Rossi took over the team from Mourinho, the defeat to Intermilan became the first defeat for De Rossi, although they lost to Intermilan but we can see throughout the game Roma managed to make Intermilan quite difficult and even Roma managed to keep up with Intermilan game at that time, I think Roma current performance in the hands of De Rossi has become better and they have a balanced team which is quite stable at the moment.

Against Brighton in europa league will be another proof for De Rossi after many people doubted his capacity when replacing Mourinho, at this time the performance of Roma and Brighton is actually not too different so that both teams have a great chance to get a victory in the game, but I think, whoever team is able to dominate will be able to win the first leg europa league later, Brighton game, which has so far been more dominant in attacking play from both wings, should be anticipated by Roma who tend to have weaknesses on both sides of their game so far.

I agree that it is not going to be all that easy to handle, and it is taking a bit of time for them to show themselves as a great team, but if you look at all the teams and their points total since the takeover, you will see that Roma is one of the best teams in the league, they are not near the top only because of the Mourinho period. Brighton is not bad neither, Zebri is a great manager and with what they have right now, they are overachieving if you ask me.

I think it will not be a n easy game for both sides, I agree that Roma has a better chance but that doesn't mean that it is going to be a domination all 90 minutes. Considering the youth Brighton has, I feel like it could take some time for them to get to a bigger place.

I'm just waiting patiently for Bayer Leverkussen to face Liverpool this season, it's really going to be a tough battle but I guess the best team comes with a winning strategy and points. Bayer Leverkusen have proven themselves in both the Europa League and also Bundesliga this season with streak unbeaten run. Xabi Alonso have all eyes on the major title this season and he's pushing forward to ensure none of these weak spots affects his team. He's fighting with everything within him and also the aides from his team have guaranteed the safe progress of the club.

It is quite understandable that we have alot matches there in Europa's league which am quite sure many of us are going to anticipate either live game or streaming it from our various rooms and homes but I am so much interested in the Europa game matche between Roma and Brighton...........

From intaial analysis which I have made so far I have a deep down thought that Roma is going to win Brighton without a much stress because they are not in their best form this season and AS Roma has been doing doing well even when I know that they are not atr the top of their local league from last match AS won their opponent 0-4 they were actually playing for away but they subdued and was able to won with minimum of 4 scores to nothing why Brighton loss their last match in premier League well so may not agree with me but believe me this os how football are been analyzed........

Well I still wish the team good luck and I am fully aware that As Roma will win that match on that very day.....

Thanks 🙏👍

After De Rossi took over the coaching bench in the Roma squad, there have been quite good changes in Roma's performance in Serie A. But in the European League, Roma have not actually shown good results. Like in the playoff round, Roma even had to go through a penalty shootout just to qualify for the round of 16. Which indicates that De Rossi is ready for Serie A but he is still not sure about the European League. But if you compare the performance of the two teams, namely Brighton and Roma, in their respective leagues, it will be seen that Roma is still better at the moment. Because Brighton just lost to Fullham and Wolves. So there is no big hope for Brighton to win. but for Roma who are getting good results in the Italian League or Serie A. So it seems like Roma are in a better position at the moment. So betting on Roma is probably what I will think about for that match.

Yeah you are right also because we can only predict but football is a game of 90mins that thr only time that determines thr winner of the game...

But I am only talking from my observation from what I forecast...

Anyways thanks my ever outstanding commarade for your humble opinion and response....

Thanks 🙏👍

Leverkusen is definitely going to end this season with a trophy and this is actually not in doubt because they are definitely given the kind o performance that will warrant such an end by the time the season is over, their performance across all the competition in which they a participating in across Europe has recorded only but good a d excellent performance such that they are not listed amongst the average buy the top teams in the league.

If Leverkusen happen to win any of the trophies, I wouldn't be surprised or think they have deserved any less because their performance from the beginning of the season till now, coupled with their consistency has been something that's deserving of a trophy doe them by the end of the season. In the Europa, so far Bayer Leverkusen's performance has been one of the best as rhey have not lost a single game from the group stage up to the knock out stage were they are now currently and their performance in this stage aswell hasn't been bad to make them appear shaky.

This has been the reason I said they will be deserving of the trophy if they win it, Bayern Munich is actually not even going to be a barrier of Leverkusen in the bundesliga buy in the Europa they will have the zealous Liverpool to contend with because they are in serious struggle for the trophy and has been performing so we'll as well too which will mean they are not less deserving aswell.

Roma has indeed shown glimpses of their potential as a strong team, and their points total since De Rossi in charge reflects their competitiveness in the league. the Mourinho period may have hindered their ascent to the top of the table. This proves how a coach who familar to the club knows better what it needs to be done when things went wrong.

Brighton that is managed by De Zerbi has been performing commendably that is potentially even overachieving given their resources and squad composition. The capability of De Zebri has undoubtedly played a significant role in Brighton's respectable performance. Considering these factors, it's reasonable to expect that the upcoming game between AS Roma and Brighton may not be a straightforward affair. Roma may have the edge in terms of overall quality and experience, but Brighton's youthful energy and tactical acumen could pose a challenge.

Roma only met one big club under De Rossi management and they lost it to Inter Milan. Before Mourinho was sacked, Roma was in a streak of big matches against toughest opponents in Serie A. I am not defending Mourinho but I believe De Rossi will have difficulty when facing those big opponents too.

For his management and performances of Roma recent matches, it's good even not perfect and it sheds some hopefully light for Roma not only in this season but next one.

Brighton that is managed by De Zerbi has been performing commendably that is potentially even overachieving given their resources and squad composition.

Brighton made a lot of impression last season but they can not maintain it this season. De Rossi and De Zebri are friend with each other in real life and it's interesting to see they have to fight each other on field in next two matches. I expect that their matches will have a lot of goals with philosophy that prioritizes attacking of both coaches.

I'm just waiting patiently for Bayer Leverkussen to face Liverpool this season, it's really going to be a tough battle but I guess the best team comes with a winning strategy and points. Bayer Leverkusen have proven themselves in both the Europa League and also Bundesliga this season with streak unbeaten run. Xabi Alonso have all eyes on the major title this season and he's pushing forward to ensure none of these weak spots affects his team. He's fighting with everything within him and also the aides from his team have guaranteed the safe progress of the club.

I am excited about the upcoming match between Bayer Leverkusen and Liverpool. It's fun to watch good teams play against each other. Bayer Leverkusen has been doing well in the Europa League and Bundesliga this season so they will be tough competition for Liverpool. Xabi Alonso is an important leader for the team and he wants to win big titles this season. The team has not lost any games showing they are strong and consistent. It will be cool to see how they do against Liverpool who is also a strong team. I am expecting this an exciting match.

[Despairo]

It would be an exaggeration to say Brighton can't possibly win against AS Roma at their own ground. Because this is football and in football all have a chance, the difference is the percentage of how much chance each team has, in this case AS Roma and Brighton. I agree that AS Roma is the favorite team, but that does not necessarily guarantee they will win in this match, after all Brighton itself will certainly be as much as possible to provide resistance to AS Roma.
Actually Brighton is an ordinary team, but if you look at their journey in the Premier League, this team becomes very dangerous when dealing with teams that are stronger than them. For some reason, maybe their motivation and enthusiasm are greater when dealing with stronger teams, so that it encourages them to be able to play better and try to show that they are also able to provide resistance to teams that are better than them. This must be watched out by AS Roma, they cannot just underestimate their potential opponents this time.

Take a look with the recent results when Brighton met stronger teams than them.

They met Arsenal, Tottenham 2 times, West Ham and Chelsea, one time won, one time drew and three times lost. If you talk about the early matches when Brighton was strong than now, it's no longer relevant because Brighton will play using their current strength.

Leverkusen is going to win the trophy this season, and Xabi Alonso is the man behind their success. He has done some magical work to improve their performance significantly compared to the previous season. Bayern is so far behind that they can't even catch up with the current points margin of many matches.
The poor performance of Bayern in previous games has made it much easier for Leverkusen to win the Bundesliga than I had anticipated. Thank you to Tuchel for changing Bayern from the biggest to the flop. Bayern may do another shit in the future game to lose some points.
Leverkusen's chances of winning the game are increasing as Bayern has not consistently won three points from its opponents.

I believe Bayer Leverkusen coach have done a good job despite the tournament is not yet over, but the tournament will surely end for their favour for their coach to receive more honor from their president and fans for the good job well done.

Xabi has not only worked wonders at this club, but he has also changed the attitude of Leverkusen. They now play more structured than Bayern, which is what many people have been waiting for. Any Leverkusen game is becoming more appealing and they remain unbeatable for the time being, which sends a strong signal to the other club in winning the competition.

Things are starting to look up for Marseille. In recent weeks they have been particularly effective in front of goal and in attack. Marseille dominated the game against Clermont. In the previous round, against Shakhtar, Marseille were the dominant team in both games and went through comfortably. Villarreal, like Marseille, are a team showing signs of improvement. They were the team that finished top of the group. Marseille will start well in the first game of the series and with the home advantage, they will be the team to win. 2 and above goal ratio can be the ideal option for betting.

This is ideal final and it could be very fantastic if both teams will met at the final match because we all know Liverpool and Leverkusen is the most favourite champion in this competition especially Leverkusen that this team was successfully to gets 6 winning streak during group stages and from among all of strong teams in Europa League only Leverkusen who can able to do that so this proven they deserved to called as one of the strongest team in Europa League this season even so with Liverpool because although their performance is not so impressive compared to Leverkusen but Liverpool performance during this season is very stable

Although both teams is favourite teams but i don't think it will be very easy for them to reach to the final match because we all know in Europa League there was plenty of surprising results available and previously we were often to see plenty of big teams failed to gets the trophy because they were eliminate by dark horses teams and for Liverpool and Leverkusen tomorrow they will facing their opponents because Leverkusen vs Qarabag and Liverpool vs Sparta Praha and we all know on the paper they should be able to beat their opponents

[klidex]

I can tell you that I am still positively surprised how Klopp navigated through all those injury problems. He came up with some players that I never heard the name of before and they are playing as if they have been Liverpool's first eleven forever. Just imagine when the best guys all come back step by step. Too bad that will leave at the end of the season and I am curious how they are going to replace him. He gave his trust to all these players that first had to develop into real stars. All the players paid back and I think this is one of the biggest strength and qualities that Klopp as a coach has. He understands how to use all those players without making them mad when they are sitting on the bench. Szoboszlai, Nunez, Endo, Gakpo, all players that at first glance have not been of the same quality like the first typical Liverpool eleven. But that changed as they made huge progress as individual players, but also as part of something big.

After spending years and establishing team like Liverpool which is hungry for the win and their quality level at bench is also impressive things are going at their best, but suddenly you have news he is going to leave at the end of the season is surely big shock and there is no guaranteed replacement is going to be as par requirement, or they are going to have more troubles because we few clubs which were at their best, but suddenly change of coach bring big decline, and now they are badly suffering this is surely important time for the club.

Even we can expect good decision from the Liverpool management but still it's not easy to bring success and quality like klopp after him because he was really amazing, and his success ratio was also not bad even they were having too many injuries, and he settles this all at the top level now many youngsters are also coming and give their best which is good sign.

Jurgen Kloop has dedicated his life to Liverpool for many years and has needed quite a bit of time to build his current performance. Now Liverpool has entered its best performance and will continue to be like that until the end of the season and compete closely with Manchester City and Arsenal in the race for the title. Jurgen Kloop will try with all his might so that Liverpool does not experience a decline because reaching the current level is not something that is impossible it's easy for him, therefore Kloop doesn't want his efforts to go to waste. Indeed, losing a coach who gave his dedication slowly and started to improve but suddenly wanted to leave the club when it reached the peak of success is an immeasurable sadness, but Liverpool must also accept whatever the coach's decision is.

Liverpool must start learning to forget their coach. If they separate, Kloop's shadow will always be there because Kloop has been with Liverpool for 9 years and that's not a short time, the new coach may not be like Kloop but Liverpool can choose a coach who has good potential in building and to be honest Xabi Alonso is a quite suitable coach for Liverpool for next season and Liverpool can see his abilities.

Things are starting to look up for Marseille. In recent weeks they have been particularly effective in front of goal and in attack. Marseille dominated the game against Clermont. In the previous round, against Shakhtar, Marseille were the dominant team in both games and went through comfortably. Villarreal, like Marseille, are a team showing signs of improvement. They were the team that finished top of the group. Marseille will start well in the first game of the series and with the home advantage, they will be the team to win. 2 and above goal ratio can be the ideal option for betting.

The position as a home team is likely to provide quite a lot of advantages for Marseille especially if they continue the positive trend in Ligue 1 in the first match of this round of 16 European league.
Marseille seems to be developing well and scoring 9 goals in two matches in Ligue 1 seems to be an impressive thing although that is also because their opponents are relatively weak, especially Clermont.
But facing Villarreal everything will be different because their opponents are fairly equal in strength so Marseille will get a balanced resistance.
Villarreal's defense is not good if we judge it from their statistics in Laliga, but that does not mean Marseille will be easy to score even many goals as they did in the last two Ligue 1 matches, even I see Villarreal has the opportunity to hold Marseille to a draw to make their steps in the second match easier but honestly this is quite difficult to predict because they have the same quality on paper, so both teams have the same chance to win.

[Oluwa-btc]

I dont know if Rome improves under De Rossi management, i take it we a lot of caution, i feel like they are only in the speel of the new coach and nothing more, he is having a lot of luck scoring a lot of goal with players in a good form right now, but the team still play in the old way, only they are having much more accuracy.

Roma will face Brigthon in the first leg at home, I am quite optimistic that As Roma can get through this match with a win. The reason is that seeing the performance while coached by De Rossi was very impressive as they continued to win in the domestic league, As Roma while coached by De Rossi only suffered one defeat against Inter. I think As Roma's impressive performance in the domestic league will have an impact on the European league.

Moreover, Dybala is having an extraordinary moment, Lukaku is also getting more and more chemistry with the coach, overall the As Roma player has found his performance again. Now step by step they are starting to compete in the top four of Serie A, and of course the Europa League is their current priority. So far De Rossi has brought new life to As Roma, there is no doubt about this and it is not at all commonplace with As Roma's current performance.

With Jose Mourinho and even without Jose Mourinho, Paula Dybala has done quite well you see, he has a good relationship on the pitch with his teammates honestly. Most importantly has to be his relationship with Romelu Lukaku just like ge had with Paul Pogba on the pitch. Loved that beautiful set piece taken by the Argentine honestly. How they play in the league would show up against Brighton who are not doing bad in this Competition but I'm sure it won't be against a club like As Roma with this high form.

Maybe the relationship between player and coach can spark up something for the management to extend the contract of Romelu Lukaku.
They could come to agreement if the fondness I'm seeing between De Rossi and Romelu Lukaku can turn into something great. The big man is working hard and should get whatever he deserves.
Even the game lost to Inter Milan wasn't easily lost, they made that game difficult for the league leaders.

Back to back goals for Per Emerick Aubameyang yet again in this game? They're up against Villarreal!

The growth of Leverkusen squad is one that’s not going unnoticed as Xabi Alonso has really done well in making the standard of this club real improved. This is one club that’s still in the race for all major trophies across both their league and the UEL and it’s one successful season for them if they can at least grab both trophies. Another team of focus is Liverpool who’re in the chase for a treble and it’s very possible as they’ve already won the League Cup, and are leading in the EPL moreover they’re still a strong contender for the UEL.

 These two teams are the major favorites for the league and we’ll love to see a final of the UEl Having these teams in participation. Though this is going to be quite difficult but with the determination level of these teams it’s sure to be a reality. If a final happens between these teams, I think Leverkusen will sure be winning it because the mentality of the players is top notch. You can see how committed they’re and they’re not going to be stressed like Liverpool who’ll probably be having a busy schedule because of how English football is.

 Injury crisis is one big issue that shoulf be avoided and I think Xabi Alonso is doing quite well in making sure he’s avoiding that as he’s doing players rotation and also you can see and say same for Liverpool as you can see how the young boys are all making their debut. For their quater finals starting tomorrow, I think the opponents can’t be compared to them as they’re far superior as compared to their opponents. Well I wish both of them luck and they should also bear in mind that a competition like the UEL always have surprises from the least expected team.

[Catenaccio]

With Jose Mourinho and even without Jose Mourinho, Paula Dybala has done quite well you see, he has a good relationship on the pitch with his teammates honestly.

Dybala is a gift for Roma and he joined them mainly because of Jose Mourinho and his plan. Now Jose gone but Dybala is still a player of Roma and contributing his best for them. This season looks to be better than a past season for Dybala individually. He is stronger, gets less injuries and has more appearances for Roma.

Maybe the relationship between player and coach can spark up something for the management to extend the contract of Romelu Lukaku.
They could come to agreement if the fondness I'm seeing between De Rossi and Romelu Lukaku can turn into something great. The big man is working hard and should get whatever he deserves.

Relationship with a coach and a player can change very quickly but up to now De Rossi and Lukaku are working well with each other. Lukaku is still not a Roma player, he is playing there as a loaned player but Roma actually needs the Belgium striker. He provides strength that can not be found with Azmoun or Belotti and with Lukaku, Roma has like a wall at the front line to help their midfielders and attacking players has more space to play.
