UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season

[MusaMohamed]

I think Liverpool has its priority to win the Premier League during this season and they are very much near it so it may be that they will be not going full power against Atalanta.Still though I believe since Atalanta had difficulties to win against Sporting a much weaker team then Liverpool it means that most probably Liverpool will win even if they go not full power during this game.

In the end in football you never know but most probably Liverpool will be going to win this game.

Winning Premier League or Europa League will be both big titles for Liverpool and I think they don't plan to prioritize anything between two competitions.

I see they want to win Premier League to end Klopp era in Anfield with a domestic league title. After 9 seasons in Liverpool, and latest six season with five titles claimed by Manchester City, it's good if Liverpool can win their second Premier League title with Klopp before the Klopp era completes at the end of this season.

It will be a good foundation for Liverpool to aim at future without Klopp that they are strong enough to fight against Manchester City and Pep Guardiola.

Liverpool has the advantage in terms of consistency and the potential to win matches with the squad they currently have. Because Atalanta is in poor performance this season, so I am also not sure Atalanta can stop Liverpool who are in peak performance in the UEL this season. A convincing win over Sparta Praha will have a positive effect on Liverpool players to win the next match. On this match, at Anfield stadium will make their path easier to face the 2nd leg.

Compared to Atalanta, Liverpool are undoubtedly the stronger team, and favorites in this match. But often we see underdog teams perform well against favorites and win. Moreover, in the round of 16, Atalanta team qualified for the quarter-finals with a win against a strong team like Sporting. So I don't see any chance of underestimating this team now. Undoubtedly, the Atalanta team is playing to win the title.

Liverpool is a strong team. And we usually see the Liverpool team competing for the Champions League title. I am not sure if Liverpool will give full effort for the Europa League title. Still the most important title for Liverpool is the Premier League title.

Atlanta was giving their best, but suddenly we have terrible time with their performance, and now they are having poor run even they won against sporting at home and now having spot into quarterfinals, but things are not easy, and I am not tagging them as underdog as well because they are going to be had troubling time against Liverpool even they can lose as well with Liverpool is surely having fair chance for the spot into final with their current performance and quality as well.

Italian teams are improving with we have three teams in last eight with one is surely going to be had spot into last four, so things are good, but Atlanta is lack of quality which is needed for this competition and also having better things at the top level lack of funds are creating problems for the mostly Italian sides which is surely the biggest issue in last few years specially after covid era.

Nobody is underestimating West Ham, but the fact is that they are too weak for Leverkusen who has never accepted defeat since the beginning of this season in all competitions. This makes to feel that it will be difficult for West Ham to survive in this match, because they are not that strong and from the premier league result we can see how inconsistent they are.

I'm still wondering what metric is used to determine if West Ham is too weak for Leverkusen. I'm curious about that since these clubs rarely face each other in the Europa League, too. It makes me doubt it. If I consider the results in the domestic league, yeah, the difference is so big, but you can't really compare the EPL to the Bundesliga.
The fact that if westham gets draw against aston villa which was also placing at the top 4 of premier league this time. Is it not enough to prove the capability of Westham? I think that we shall never try to underestimate our opponents. The result will be so bad. Leverkusen is strong but it doesn't mean westham will lose without even fightin against leverkusen.

Both teams are coming from completely different conditions with different opponents and levels which is surely not comparable because things like these has never been easy while we have Bayer Leverkusen is giving their best after years and now achieving new highs of their quality and performance with West Ham which is having terrible time in Premier League, but their performance in Europa League is completely at the different level which is impressive and this could be surely one of the best match for the Bayer Leverkusen as well which is now heading for the double in this season.

Most chances we will have these both matches full of action but still home matches are going to be good for both teams as we have in last round and no team will be tried to underestimate opponent because now we have only 8 teams with all are surely done good job and now achieve this success which is not easy and surely this could be challenging as well for all teams.

[wakier]

There is still a potential for a Liverpool - Leverkusen final after the draw. But I doubt Leverkusen more than Liverpool to reach there. Leverkusen had better improve this performance before a face-to-face with a challenging team like West Ham.

Liverpool also have a difficult game against Atalanta, Liverpool is the better team but it would surely be tough. I know many people are already wishing for a Liverpool v Leverkusen final, but there are still so many strong teams that are left in the competition, and if that final is going to happen, the both teams will have to deserve it. West Ham beat Frieburg 5-0 in the round of 16 second leg, so Leverkusen are really up for it in this quarter final game, but i believe they can win.

In my opinion, this is not a difficult match for Liverpool because Atalanta is not a team that is worthy of playing against Liverpool. I am sure that Liverpool will beat Atalanta with a landslide score like Liverpool did before in the UEL and also in the EPL. There is no doubt that I will not favor Liverpool. in this match because Liverpool deserved to win. And for Bayer Leverkusen, in my opinion, the opponent is quite comparable to him, but still Bayer Leverkusen will continue its unbeaten record because Xabi has the ambition to get the Bundesliga title and also the UEL, just like Kloop this season who wants to get 2 prestigious trophies.

[QueenVera]

The difference between the two clubs are so significant, it's caused by liverpool is still able competing at the top positions in EPL against smoe big clubs. I can't imagine how Atalanta will beat Liverpool causes by it sounds impossible to happen with the current condition from both of clubs. Either of them will dominate the game and that's liverpool. The first game will be played at home for Liverpool, and it is obvious that if the club can improve its performance, it will be time for Liverpool to destroy Atalanta's mentality by creating large aggregates since it will also burdening atalanta in the second leg which potentially disrupting the performance from its opponent.
It's obvious that I want to bet on Liverpool. Liverpool has some advantages over Atalanta

1. Home game
2. Full team game
3. Positive vibes

All of these factors will have contributed to Liverpool's ability to play freely without being burdened, which has impacted the players' performance in the upcoming game. It's time for Liverpool to play and destroy Atlanta soon. We are still a long way from the continuation of the Europa League, but I am confident that the time will come soon.
1x2 Liverpool odds are pretty small, I expect it to do better, but it's still less than what I expected, which was around 1.5.

Liverpool's odds are 1.37, but given Liverpool's numerous advantages over its opponents, I believe those odds are reasonable.

As it stands, the team would have to find a major focus and personally, I'd suggest that they put in more strength to the UEL as they've been able to gain grounds in the EPL even if not solid as it ought to considering the intensity of the league. The EPL is competitive too and so focus should be put in it but the UEL trophy to me would actually have more worth than the EPL. The UEL journey may not necessarily be stressful for them as Liverpool tends to be better than the teams in the tournament

 Their tough counterpart will definitely be Leverkusen because they've had more or less same domestic league results as Liverpool and the team is everly eager to strive to win games and they're aiming for the trophy. It's good that the both of them are in the same condition and then also have the same goal and target in the domestic and continental tournaments too.
Atalanta have been an improving side overtime. They've had some rough edges but their performance in the league is still seen. Even though they may not be top trophy contenders, they're trying to stay in the domestic league instead of relegating.

 They'll be playing against Liverpool in the next phase of the UEL and goodnews is they've been able to gather enough confidence and momentum for the game which still puts them in and advantageous spot of finishing with a tangible result regardless. Of both teams, there's struggle atmosphere present and even though Liverpool won't take mercy with them, the both teams will strive to see that they either win or get a draw at the end of the first leg. One would have to wait patiently for the game's final result. There'll definitely be an advancement of either teams after the second leg of the contest.

[dezoel]

The match against Qarabag have proven once again how good Bayern Leverkusen are this season and how they cannot be easily defeated even in the final minutes of a game. The win against Qarabag was worth it and they played well to achieve that win that day. Bayern Leverkusen priority might be the Bundesliga but with the fixtures ahead of them to reach the final of the Europa League competition, they can also be a possible contender for the Europa League trophy too irrespective of who they meet in the finals.

If they meet with Liverpool, it will be a fun to watch final and this is what many people have been expecting because by then we would have known where this two teams finished in their league and it will give both of them to focus more on the final especially the team that doesn’t get to win their league title.

Bayer Leverkusen is doing historic job under the coaching of Xabi Alonso which is having his early days in this field, and he is currently one of the best new generation coaches with his quality and performance specially the best thing which happen to him is he is achieving success without spending huge funds for the quality players and in these both games they have done amazing stuff because both time we have Qarabag at the top with 2 goals lead, but sadly they fail to keep things at their best and both time they have to give up in this season these teams faced each other four time with 3 wins and 1 draw for the Bayer Leverkusen is realistically amazing.

Now things are another level and Bayer Leverkusen is going to face another best team from the Premier League which won conference league in last season and now having best results despite struggling time, so things are going to be entertaining and surely both have to give their best if they want to have spot into last four of this event.

[Palakka]

I think Liverpool has its priority to win the Premier League during this season and they are very much near it so it may be that they will be not going full power against Atalanta.Still though I believe since Atalanta had difficulties to win against Sporting a much weaker team then Liverpool it means that most probably Liverpool will win even if they go not full power during this game.

In the end in football you never know but most probably Liverpool will be going to win this game.

Yes Liverpool are very close to the current trophy in the league even though they have to compete with Manchester City and Arsenal, but even so of course the Europa League will still be their main focus at the moment, I think juxtaposing two trophies will of course be a sweet farewell gift for Liverpool fans from Klopp later,  Even during this time when Liverpool were competing in the league, I never saw them underestimate another trophy that even had less prestige than the Premier League trophy so far.

If you look at the match between Manchester United and Liverpool in the FA Cup yesterday, then you will see how enthusiastic Klopp is to welcome the game and even almost all of Liverpool's main players played in the FA match which is one of the English domestic cups that is smaller than the current Europa League, then why can you think if Liverpool will not play their main squad in the game against Atlanta later?
I think if we compare of course the Europa League probably has the prestige that is indeed equivalent to the current domestic league trophy, and honestly I strongly disagree if you say Liverpool are not serious about winning the Europa League trophy just because they are currently in the competition for the Premier League trophy.

[Volgastallion]

After what we see in the last round is clearly who is the favourite contender to win the tittle and is not other than Liverpool before this round we may think Leverkusen can stand a chance for his magnificent invictus and campaing in Bundesliga but we cant no longer think that after how much they need to work to surprase a weak team like Qarabag.

[Patrol69]

Liverpool are one of the favorites in the Europa League this season. If Liverpool's performance was similar to last season then maybe Liverpool would not be so much favorite in Europa League but they have improved their performance this season compared to last season which is why they have a good chance to win Europa League title this season. Liverpool are performing in the Europa League as well as in the English Premier League, but the other teams that have qualified for the Europa League are not able to perform as well. Since Liverpool are ahead of all the other teams in terms of performance, if Liverpool win the Europa League title for the first time this season, it will surely help them to forget the sorrow of not being able to qualify for the Champions League.

After watching Liverpool performance in last few games, now mostly are thinking they are hot favourite for the win in this competition because their lethal attack is giving them all which needed for the win and their player's depth is also amazing specially as their few top players are missing due to injuries but still things are going into their favour and their bench power is also having great chemistry which is their best weapon for the leading from the front now we are heading for the quarterfinals which are surely never been easy to predict because things are completely on same level and all teams are having good performance so now they are having spots into his round.

Liverpool is currently fighting for the three titles with one is already won, so things like these making their season so astonishing because they are trying to give best farewell to their outgoing coach this could be surely historic end of their history as well with as much they can grab from this.

There is no major star in the Liverpool team, but with the combination of all the players, Liverpool is performing well this season. Liverpool's current team combination is very good and if there are injury problems and some players are missing in the upcoming games due to injury problems, their plans will definitely be disrupted. As they have a chance to win several titles ahead, the players must stay fit and play cautiously even if no player gets injured because injuries are totally unwanted. Even though the injury is unwanted, they have to play with as much caution as possible so that the plans they have made this season are implemented.

If I look at the draw results, I am quite curious about the results of the match between Benfica vs Marseille. Actually overall Benfica is still better but for now I think it will be a fairly even match. I'm sure Benfica won't be able to win easily against Marseille because this French team has found their game a little better. Having experienced a decline since the start of the season and changing coaches has finally made Marseille find its true form and in front of Benfica, I think they will put up fierce resistance.

The first leg of the match took place at Benfica's home ground and as hosts, the Portuguese team deserves to be favored and if they can win with a big score, it is likely that they will have no trouble visiting Marseille in the second leg. On the other hand, if Marseille can hold on to a draw in the first leg, they have a big chance of getting rid of Benfica in the quarterfinals. This is just my opinion, what do you think about this match going forward?

I have been discuss about this before because i don't know what happend to Benfica because their performance in Champion League is really opposite compared to their performance at domestic league because in Portugal League Benfica performance is really stable they even still compete for race title with Sporting but in Champion League Benfica only able to gets 1 win from 6 matches and i think they are lucky because they can able to finish at 3rd place on group standings after in the last match of group stages Benfica can gets important win from Salzburg

On round of 16 i thought Benfica will be eliminate by Rangers because in the first leg Benfica only able to playing draw but surprisingly Benfica can able to overcomes Rangers with narrow score and it makes them can advances to the quarterfinal stages and for Marseille although for second leg they have to lost from Villarreal but basically Marseille performance is really impressive especially for first leg they already gets big win from Villarreal so i have to says Marseille will being an strong opponent for Benfica

About the first leg apparently this is the first time for both teams to met at European Competitions because previously Marseille and Benfica only met at friendly match once and they have to playing draw at that time but obviously this statistics cannot be used as the reference to predict the outcomes of this match but Marseille under new manager is really showing they can able to bounce back and indeed if Marseille can able to playing draw in the first leg then there is a chance for them to qualified and with their current condition i am sure Marseille can able to do that

Even though the injury is unwanted, they have to play with as much caution as possible so that the plans they have made this season are implemented.

Liverpool is a top team that has quality players in all its lines and I think there are enough star players at Liverpool so that they can maintain the consistency of their best performance in the last few seasons.
Regarding the number of injured players, I don't think it's a big problem because we have seen throughout this season that quite a lot of Liverpool teams rotate players because several of their main players are injured and that doesn't make their performance decline.

Against Atalanta it is not easy for Liverpool, but we also have to look realistically at the strength of these two teams, that Liverpool is a little stronger and they have a slightly greater percentage of being able to qualify for the semi-finals.

Yes, it's true that Qarabag makes things difficult for Leverkusen, but you also need to remember that Liverpool also failed because they lost to Manchester United yesterday in the FA Cup, so it's only natural that some teams are tired because of a schedule that might be busy, I also don't underestimate Liverpool's strength, but you also need to remember that Leverkusen become a serious threat in UEL even though seeing their match against Qarabag as difficult does not mean Leverkusen is unable to win and beat them. Leverkusen is unbeaten in the domestic league and maybe in the UEL.

Liverpool must prepare for that and try to make it to the UEL final because they are worried that Liverpool will have difficulties in the middle of the road which means they won't make it through to the final, hopefully Liverpool and Leverkusen's meeting will happen in the UEL final this season, I will be happy to watch them even though I'm not a supporter from one of the two teams, but I like Leverkusen's game and tactics created by Xabi as well as Klopp, the meeting between the two will bring together these two great coaches, I'm not saying Leverkusen is better than Liverpool, but Leverkusen will be their toughest challenger in the UEL final if the two meet.

Even though several of Liverpool's important players are sidelined due to injuries, the team continues to excel without them. Despite this setback, I strongly believe that Liverpool remains the favored team to triumph over Atalanta. This assertion is based on their remarkable performance in the league thus far. Comparing the strengths of the two teams, it is evident that Liverpool still holds the edge over Atalanta. However, the outcome of the first leg and second leg matches remains uncertain.Nonetheless, Liverpool stands a good chance of emerging victorious in both encounters. It will be intriguing to witness how the first leg unfolds, as Atalanta could potentially present a formidable challenge to Liverpool's dominance. In essence, while Liverpool's injury concerns may raise doubts, their current form and squad depth suggest that they are well-equipped to secure positive results against Atalanta.

[Mr.suevie]

There is still a potential for a Liverpool - Leverkusen final after the draw. But I doubt Leverkusen more than Liverpool to reach there. Leverkusen had better improve this performance before a face-to-face with a challenging team like West Ham.

Liverpool also have a difficult game against Atalanta, Liverpool is the better team but it would surely be tough. I know many people are already wishing for a Liverpool v Leverkusen final, but there are still so many strong teams that are left in the competition, and if that final is going to happen, the both teams will have to deserve it. West Ham beat Frieburg 5-0 in the round of 16 second leg, so Leverkusen are really up for it in this quarter final game, but i believe they can win.

In my opinion, this is not a difficult match for Liverpool because Atalanta is not a team that is worthy of playing against Liverpool. I am sure that Liverpool will beat Atalanta with a landslide score like Liverpool did before in the UEL and also in the EPL. There is no doubt that I will not favor Liverpool. in this match because Liverpool deserved to win. And for Bayer Leverkusen, in my opinion, the opponent is quite comparable to him, but still Bayer Leverkusen will continue its unbeaten record because Xabi has the ambition to get the Bundesliga title and also the UEL, just like Kloop this season who wants to get 2 prestigious trophies.

I think that's a very wrong approach any team would have in going into any competition because thinking less of the opposite team can actually do you bad because you might just end up being surprised of how the game might just end up and with the experience that jorgen kloop have gotten through his long experience as a coach he will know better not to go down this lane because they will certainly be shocked of what Atlanta might have up their sleeve.

[el kaka22]

We can call AC Milan as horse for the big races because they are having rich history and won Champions League 7 times, but they have never been UEFA Europa League won with their best in recent times is round of 16 few years back now they are in quarterfinal against Serie A rivals AS Roma which is going for second time to win with in last season they lost finals under José Mourinho, and now we have De Rosie which is leading the team and doing good job but most chances we will have tough job ahead of them with currently AC Milan is surely doing impressive in all competitions and things are not looking easy for the AS Roma to beat them and have chance for the top four with AC Milan is looking more competitive.

Even we have good strategy from the De Rosie in last few games with things are looking much improved but still this could be big challenge, and we will have to wait for the match with no doubt AC Milan is looking much better and stronger for the promotion their next challenge against another big team in this competition.

Milan may have that type of past, but can we say that the yare as good now? I am not so sure about that, yes they have won a title in the recent years, and they have done well, but that doesn't mean that they are good this season, they are not that great this season if you ask me, which is why we should be careful about it.

I think it's clear that they are going to have a problem if they are not careful and could lose out. I think Liverpool and Leverkusen looks like a much better duo for this title and I think they may win it. Milan didn't just come here from league position, they battled it out with Dortmund and PSG if I remember correctly, both of which are at quarter finals. I think that's a lot more important part of it.

In my opinion, this is not a difficult match for Liverpool because Atalanta is not a team that is worthy of playing against Liverpool. I am sure that Liverpool will beat Atalanta with a landslide score like Liverpool did before in the UEL and also in the EPL.

And for Bayer Leverkusen, in my opinion, the opponent is quite comparable to him, but still Bayer Leverkusen will continue its unbeaten record because Xabi has the ambition to get the Bundesliga title and also the UEL, just like Kloop this season who wants to get 2 prestigious trophies.

To be honest, I don't really follow developments in the Serie A competition. Atlanta's style of play, the tactics and systems they apply, but at least some of the teams are very familiar, such as AC Milan, Inter Milan and several others. however, I have the data and statistical information. referring to the match against Liverpool, the most vulnerable is in the Domestic League competition. Before hosting Atlanta's match in the quarter-finals, Kloop had to prepare his team's squad when they visited Old Trafford. so, this match can drain the energy of Liverpool players.
however, if we refer to the Leverpool vs Atalanta match, on paper Liverpool has a high probability of overthrowing the opposing team. whether it's a home or away match, Liverpool are far favorites based on several factors. whether it's in terms of team, performance, and based on the betting market. even though it is temporary, Liverpool is far superior to Atalanta. Currently Liverpool is at odds @1.37, while Atalanta is at @7.60. well, there is a quite significant gap. theoretically, Liverpool can win this match easily. Moreover, the first leg will be held at Anfield. so, I'm sure there are many who favor Liverpool over their opposing team.

As for Leverkusen, just like Liverpool, Leverkusen is more favored than the opposing team West Ham. We can refer to the temporary odds presented by bookmakers, especially as one of their pure strikers, Victor Boniface, can be sure that he will soon return to the main squad of Xabi Alonso's team. So, how did these two teams go about their match? Let's just make sure, when they play match after match, both in domestic competitions and the European League. Regarding the trophy, that's another matter because we can't confirm it at this time.

In essence, while Liverpool's injury concerns may raise doubts, their current form and squad depth suggest that they are well-equipped to secure positive results against Atalanta.

Playing Atlanta wouldn't be the problem for Liverpool, because Liverpool is mean for this game and they are in their super form, due to the way that they displayed their strengths in the round of 16. I don't think that Atlanta would be a problem that can hinder Liverpool from qualifying to the semifinals.

Atlanta is also strong but they don't have the quality of players that would be able to outsmart Liverpool players, and take advantage of the game. However, that does not mean that Atlanta should be underestimated, because we might see a different drama from them in that day.

[Jatiluhung]

In my opinion, this is not a difficult match for Liverpool because Atalanta is not a team that is worthy of playing against Liverpool. I am sure that Liverpool will beat Atalanta with a landslide score like Liverpool did before in the UEL and also in the EPL. There is no doubt that I will not favor Liverpool. in this match because Liverpool deserved to win. And for Bayer Leverkusen, in my opinion, the opponent is quite comparable to him, but still Bayer Leverkusen will continue its unbeaten record because Xabi has the ambition to get the Bundesliga title and also the UEL, just like Kloop this season who wants to get 2 prestigious trophies.

Atalanta actually cannot be underestimated but yeah I quite agree that Atalanta is still not comparable to Liverpool. And in the end Liverpool will indeed be the favorites to win and advance further in the Europa League. And regarding Leverkusen they will definitely do the same. Although I was disappointed with Leverkusen's performance which was quite different from their performance in the Bundesliga. Because previously Leverkusen seemed to have difficulty getting through from the round of 16 to the quarter-finals. West Ham, who will be Leverkusen's opponent, may not be the top team in the Premier League. But let's see, Leverkusen will definitely have the same difficulties as in the round of 16.

[hahay]

After what we see in the last round is clearly who is the favourite contender to win the tittle and is not other than Liverpool before this round we may think Leverkusen can stand a chance for his magnificent invictus and campaing in Bundesliga but we cant no longer think that after how much they need to work to surprase a weak team like Qarabag.

Yes indeed, I also have considerations that Liverpool really is a team that is very likely to win the European League trophy this season. Because after considering the results obtained by Bayer Leverkusen in the round of 16, even though Bayer Leverkusen only played against Qarabag, but it seems that at least it not be easy for Bayer Leverkusen to beat Qarabag. Moreover, other teams such as AS Roma, Milan, West Ham and also Marseille managed to win with big scores, so it seems that it is still not easy and there is no strong guarantee for Bayer Leverkusen to get the Europa League trophy. But indeed, with the final results with very good scores in the round of 16 that several teams managed to achieve, then of course the quarter-final competition will clearly not be easy for all teams, and it will be very interesting of course.

[kawetsriyanto]

Even though several of Liverpool's important players are sidelined due to injuries, the team continues to excel without them. Despite this setback, I strongly believe that Liverpool remains the favored team to triumph over Atalanta. This assertion is based on their remarkable performance in the league thus far.

Several injured players have recovered. Salah and Nunez have recovered, they have no problem anymore with the injury. There are few players only who have injured, some of them aren't the main players, so Klopp won't feel so worried. I see Alisson, Arnold, and Thiago are the main players with injury problem. But I'm sure they will return soon. Even if they are still injured, Liverpool has enough players to replace them. It is lucky that Liverpool has a big squad with many quality players. So they still can keep a good performance although some players are injured.

Comparing the strengths of the two teams, it is evident that Liverpool still holds the edge over Atalanta. However, the outcome of the first leg and second leg matches remains uncertain.Nonetheless, Liverpool stands a good chance of emerging victorious in both encounters. It will be intriguing to witness how the first leg unfolds, as Atalanta could potentially present a formidable challenge to Liverpool's dominance.

It is clear that Liverpool has a better squad, they are stronger than Atalanta. Liverpool also has a better history in international competition over Atalanta. So, I no doubt that Liverpool can beat Atalanta to qualify for the next round. Even if there is no one knows the score in Leg 1 and Leg 2 but I'm optimistic that Liverpool is likely to win in both Leg. Klopp won't miss any chance, he won't lose the opportunity again like in FA Cup.
