UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season

[Farma]

In Serie A, Milan is playing better while Roma results improved a lot than what it used to be under Mourinho.

Roma have improved so much under De Rossi and they are a stronger and better team right now. The last two games between the two teams in the Seria A ended in a defeat for Roma, as Ac Milan beat them home and away. However, this game is going to be different from their recent games, it is a two leg match and Roma are in a stronger position that they were before. The game will be tough and very hard to pick a winner, but i think Roma will go far in the competition this season and they have to beat Ac Milan to go that far.

Roma has indeed improved a lot since being handled by De Rossi, but AC Milan has also improved.
We can look at the performance of these two teams in the domestic league and it can be seen that both teams are experiencing significant improvements in performance recently, so I think this match will be quite balanced.

It's very difficult to predict who will be able to advance to the semifinals because in my opinion these two teams have the same potential and for betting choices maybe we have our own point of view and there's nothing wrong with that because this is a match between two teams that are difficult because they have almost the same strength.

Benfica were doing really bad in the Champions League group stage you know. They could have even found themselves at the bottom of the group if they didn't show some life signs in few games. Those signs have led them to reach the quarter finals in the Europa League now.    They had quite big difficulties against Toulouse and Rangers though.

This is why I'm doubting their chance against Marseille as well. Because after Marseille changed their manager recently they started to play way better. If Benfica can't get a win home in the first leg I think they would be in serious danger to be eliminated. I'm favouring Marseille because of liking their game these days. 

Both teams are at the same level with I have feeling Benfica having better chance of qualification for the next round as they are superior in quality from the Marseille which is now also on better run and things are clearly indicating we will have good match between these two teams which are going to give their best after securing their place here in this round.

No doubt we have no good performance in early rounds, but now things are completely change, and they are surely going to give their best with after this round they will be having another challenging situation Liverpool or Atlanta will be in semifinal which is also interesting but for this game for me, I have Benfica to be gone through for the last four.

In several seasons Roma has always managed to go further in the European League. And yes, I think this season Roma will be able to do it even though now their coach is different. Previously they were coached by Mourinho and managed to reach the final in the Europa League. And now under De Rossi's coaching, I think Roma will be able to do it too. because what we can see now is that Roma has improved rapidly in terms of performance on the field after De Rossi came to replace Mourinho.

AS Roma development and performance under De Rossi is impressive because things were never been like this under José Mourinho and there were serious chance for them to eliminate from the top six spots into Serie A table, but now they are having good chance for the top four with their progress in Europa League is also impressive because after eliminating Feyenoord and Brighton their confidence level is high, and they can go through for the another final with now their match against AC Milan is surely not easy but still we can expect both teams could be give their best and have fair chance for the having spot into next round.

First leg match is going to be tough with AC Milan is surely also at his best but if AS Roma able to handle them at better point then surely we can expect much better performance from them into second leg which is going to play at Rome with they could be also feel positive and play solid for the progress.

The Europa League clearly has differences with the domestic league, but we can assess a team's performance there.
In Europa League, which uses a knockout system, anything can happen and even luck will be quite influential here.

There's nothing wrong with predicting Liverpool and Roma's final, because both teams have good quality, but it's not easy and I really don't think that the course or what happens in the Europa League will be in line with what many people predict.

Now as we have top eight teams left into competition things are looking competitive and predictions are going to be tough with any team can win and go through for the next round if we will have Liverpool vs Roma in final this could be not surprising because Roma already lost last year into final and Liverpool current quality and performance is at the top which can give them good chance for reaching into last four.

We have four games into this round with all teams are good and having consistency which allow them to reach out here even few are looking stronger due to their quality and recent performance but still in UEFA events we can predict about any match with any game can go into either way with the match day performance of any team.

If Benfica can't get a win home in the first leg I think they would be in serious danger to be eliminated. I'm favouring Marseille because of liking their game these days.  

Benfica are still lucky to be stuck in the Europa League this season after their Champions League group stage slump with Salzburg but fortunately for Benfica if their goal difference is better than Salzburg at that time and makes their journey in European competition continue today, I think what you said is indeed quite reasonable,  When Benfica still struggled to win against clubs with weak teams like Ranger and Toulouse in the previous game, of course there was little hope for Benfica to win when faced a pretty good club like Marseille at the moment.

Benfica has a pretty good performance in the Portuguese league at this time by occupying the 2nd place in the standings, in contrast to Marseille who actually still have to fight hard to reach the Europa League zone next season in Ligue 1 at this time, the performance of the two is actually inversely proportional when playing in the current Europa League and Benfica, which from the beginning continues to get relatively easy opponents, actually finds it difficult to win,  Unlike Marseille who are able to overcome the resistance of strong teams like Villareal before, for the Benfica vs Marseille match later I also predict that Marseille will be able to win over Benfica  in the two legs of the match they play later.

I dont know why but i can feel a final between Liverpool and Rome, if Rome has the enoguht luck in his side they can be in the final and De Rossi seems like he have that and plus the players are with him 100%.

For me Leverkusen is not gonna reach the final. They are gonna be very bussy with Bundesliga and they are not so good on head to head.

Leverkusen is quite comfortable at the top of the Bundesliga standings with a 10 point lead so I think that way they don't have any pressure in the Bundesliga so they can focus on their Europa League matches.
I don't think what you say has a strong reason, it's impossible for Leverkusen to put aside the Europa League for the sake of the Bundesliga which they are almost certain to get.

Roma does have quite good strength and has experienced very significant improvements since De Rossi's arrival, but I don't think it's easy, even in the quarter-finals against AC Milan, I don't think Roma's chances of qualifying are much greater.

It is certainly a plus point for Leverkusen that they are free of Bundesliga pressure and have no problem focusing entirely on the Europa League. When a team competes in the Champions League or Europa League and competes hard in their own league, the plans of those clubs are thrown into disarray. 

The Bundesliga is pretty much assured in Leverkusen's case, they won't worry too much about this league now that their full focus will be on the Europa League. The toughest opponent for them in the Europa League will be Liverpool in which case they will try to beat Liverpool at any cost to win the Europa League title this season. A tough competition awaits between Liverpool and Leverkusen in the Europa League. If these two teams face each other then it will be a tough contest.

In several seasons Roma has always managed to go further in the European League. And yes, I think this season Roma will be able to do it even though now their coach is different. Previously they were coached by Mourinho and managed to reach the final in the Europa League. And now under De Rossi's coaching, I think Roma will be able to do it too. because what we can see now is that Roma has improved rapidly in terms of performance on the field after De Rossi came to replace Mourinho.

In fact, about the two defeats of AS Roma by Milan in this season in Serie A, that at that time De Rossi was not yet the head coach of AS Roma. Therefore, it will certainly be a different result for their meeting in the quarter-finals of the Europa League this time because yes, that AS Roma have improved their quality under De Rossi's coaching at this moment. Therefore, it will certainly be a proof again for De Rossi, whether De Rossi will really bring AS Roma through to the semifinals by defeating and eliminating Milan in this quarter-final or not. Because of course, De Rossi is really a new hope for the great results that are still possible to get with AS Roma in all the competitions that are still being played in the rest of the season.

`
Realistically I don't think anyone would want to favour a bad team in the league to be favourites to win the Europa League at the moment, I think Leverkusen and Liverpool are the only two teams to reach the final, and even If those two teams meet in the semi-finals of course one of the two winners is a strong candidate to win the Europa League trophy this season.

I think we should not forget AC Milan. They also performed very well in the Europa League. I think the final match will be AC Milan vs Liverpool. Initially I didn't include Milan in my favorites list. But their match against Slavia Prague showed that they are very worthy of being one of the finalists. Leverkusen performed very well and I am sure Xabi has a good strategy to beat any team in the Europa League. But AC Milan and Liverpool are difficult opponents. AS Roma has been able to perform well since being with De Rossi. But I think it's still not enough to beat AC Milan.

I like your assessment and I truly commend the honesty haha. One thing about knock out competition is that it doesn’t care it you are top of the league or bottom of the league

League form is different from European form.
Tie is open for anyone to win

That's not wrong, but it's also not a problem for anyone to see the strength of teams through their respective domestic leagues even though it might not be accurate enough to make an assessment because what you say can also happen in the European League so some people sometimes also can be surprised when there is a different result for a team they don't like. But for a match like Milan vs Roma, I am still a bit short in giving an assessment because both teams are not in bad condition at the moment.

Really tough to decides the promising future of these top teams. Predicting these clubs will always stick to winnings, though they've not securely effective but the present odds means something for us. The UEFA Europa League are mainly for the elite teams, precisely these clubs will fight for their spot this season. We know how these teams have grown to be fonder and desperate to win titles. We know team's that will continue to struggle this season and the ones that have become confident enough for winning.

[Jatiluhung]

In the quarterfinals of the Europa League of course everything can happen, but still their influence and performance in the domestic league is our reference to predict which team will advance to the next round, although luck is needed by a team but the performance and quality of the team are the main factors for them to beat their opponents, I think we are all here favoring Leverkusen and Liverpool at the moment is it because they are currently at the top If Leverkusen were a mediocre team like last season that was near the relegation zone, would we all say if Leverkusen was a strong candidate to win the Europa League this season?
off course not..!

Realistically I don't think anyone would want to favour a bad team in the league to be favourites to win the Europa League at the moment, I think Leverkusen and Liverpool are the only two teams to reach the final, and even If those two teams meet in the semi-finals of course one of the two winners is a strong candidate to win the Europa League trophy this season.

It seems I have to agree with your opinion. Because we cannot deny that we determine a team's performance not far from our assessment of their performance in their respective domestic leagues. And for example, as you mentioned about Leverkusen and Liverpool who also have good performances in their respective domestic leagues.

But apart from that, in the European League, surprising results often occur. Like last season, Sevilla managed to advance to the Final even though they were in poor performance in Laliga since last season. And last season Arsenal were also in the Europa League but they lost and were unable to go further. In essence, even though we refer to the domestic league to determine which team is the favorite. But to see a real result, sometimes luck plays an important role here too.

That's true, often teams competing in the European League show different performances or vice versa, because basically they don't only target winning trophies, but tickets to the Champions League too. Sometimes competition in the domestic league is very tight, so they have difficulty finishing in the top four of the standings, so they will shift their main focus to the European League to be able to get tickets to the Champions League. Statistically, the reputation of Liverpool and Leverkusen this season is quite impressive, both have stable performance, so they deserve to be favored over other contestants.

Yes, the European League is also the goal of all teams who failed to win tickets to the Champions League last season due to failing to finish in the top 4 of the domestic league standings. So often a team's performance is different when playing in the domestic league and in the European League. One example this season is West Ham who have not been consistent in the Premier League, but they have turned out to be quite consistent in the European League and can advance to the quarter-finals now.

Unfortunately, West Ham must be faced with a battle that will be difficult for them to win in the quarter-finals, namely against Leverkusen, who are also one of the favorites this season in the European League along with Liverpool.

I dont know why but i can feel a final between Liverpool and Rome, if Rome has the enoguht luck in his side they can be in the final and De Rossi seems like he have that and plus the players are with him 100%.

For me Leverkusen is not gonna reach the final. They are gonna be very bussy with Bundesliga and they are not so good on head to head.

There is a really good progress for Roma lately. That's a fact. De Rossi has really started to change something in the way this team play. But Milan is a really big obstacle ahead. They are very accustomed to playing against Milan. However they haven't played against them under De Rossi's control yet. I'm wondering if things will change positively.

Because things didn't go well while Mourinho was in charge. They lost both of their games against Milan in the Serie A. 

About Leverkusen maybe you would turn out to be right who knows. It depends on if we see the same performance against Qarabag or not.

[GiftedMAN]

In Serie A, Milan is playing better while Roma results improved a lot than what it used to be under Mourinho.

Roma have improved so much under De Rossi and they are a stronger and better team right now. The last two games between the two teams in the Seria A ended in a defeat for Roma, as Ac Milan beat them home and away. However, this game is going to be different from their recent games, it is a two leg match and Roma are in a stronger position that they were before. The game will be tough and very hard to pick a winner, but i think Roma will go far in the competition this season and they have to beat Ac Milan to go that far.

In several seasons Roma has always managed to go further in the European League. And yes, I think this season Roma will be able to do it even though now their coach is different. Previously they were coached by Mourinho and managed to reach the final in the Europa League. And now under De Rossi's coaching, I think Roma will be able to do it too. because what we can see now is that Roma has improved rapidly in terms of performance on the field after De Rossi came to replace Mourinho.

I also think Roma has got a lot of experience in the Europa league likewise AC Milan and the performance of Roma has experienced a drastic change since Jose Mourinho was replaced, being in a better shape they can go all the way to compete with their opponents but playing against a team in the same league who understands their tactics and their weaknesses it's difficult for them to get an easy win but they can get a good result if they improve in their game play and make good use of their opportunity to score goals when they finally meet. AC Milan is another good team who's playing well but since they failed to catch up with Inter Milan in the league, they will try to also progress in the Europa league so it's now a battle between the teams and rhe winner will be determined at the end of the match.

We don't know yet whether Liverpool and Leverkusen will meet in the final or not because we are still waiting for the semifinal match. It is not yet known who Liverpool or Leverkusen will be against or whether they will meet first in the semifinal. Everyone also hopes that Leverkusen and Liverpool will meet in final match so we can see who is the strongest between the two regarding their abilities in their respective leagues in occupying the top position of the standings, these clubs are the strongest candidates in the race for the European League title this season even though there are still Milan and Roma but the clubs This is not really a favorite because its appearance is less consistent.

Leverkusen has indeed shown extraordinary ability this season in beating Bayern Munich, even though Bayern Munich is a big club and its performances in the Bundesliga and Champions League are always in the spotlight but Leverkusen was able to beat the Bundesliga giant and break its dominance. This can be used as a reference in facing Liverpool in the future because Liverpool and Bayern Munich's performance is almost equal so Leverkusen can still challenge the big Premier League club.

 In the Europa League, there's been top contending teams from the start till the current stage of the contest. Even though days back, the playoffs stage was concluded and there we saw few teams earn advancement tickets. Well from the beginning of the tournament, we know that it'll only be the tough teams that'd survive. Also predicting the winner this season would be hard as there are a number of tough teams to pick from.

 The highest we can do is to just analyze these teams based on their overtime performances this season and bringing that in the picture, the highest probable winner would be Leverkusen, then Liverpool and any other team behind. In essence it's safe to say that if the draws are favourable, then Liverpool would battle with Leverkusen in the final game of the tournament.

 Between these two teams, Liverpool have been trying though, they're anticipating the EPL trophy, and as well the Carabao cup too where they weeks ago won Chelsea to secure the trophy.With this in their minds, the next goal will be to keep advancing in the UEL and staying intact in the EPL too.

 For Leverkusen, they've been impactful, currently the top spot in the Bundesliga too and so they've got same goal as Liverpool and therefore if in recent times they've remained unbeaten, 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 Leverkusen and Liverpool in the UEL soon though and I have a feeling they'd be made to play against themselves.

[Lillominato89]

Yes, fortunately, Roma is currently in pretty good condition under their new coach. Maybe they were worried because Roma's performance had really declined over time. But this time, it looks like they will be quite different. Considering that, de Rossi seems quite suited to Roma. So, just see how they perform, don't expect much from that. but at least, their performance will not be embarrassing. Even though the chance is quite slim, Roma must try as optimally as possible against Milan, which incidentally is a club from the same league. This is going to be very exciting again.

I don't know if facing a team from the same league is good or not since the result might be totally different than what we could expect in their domestic league.
In Serie A, Milan is playing better while Roma results improved a lot than what it used to be under Mourinho.
Until we see how good Roma could perform against Milan in the first leg, I find AC Milan favorite in their home. I think Roma should try to keep a draw so they could have a bigger chance when hosting their opponent.

Technically, AC Milan are better than Roma, but since Daniele de Rossi arrived on the Roma bench, results and performances have improved dramatically. We will see how both teams perform in the first leg, as they will both want to go as far as possible in the competition, not forgetting that Roma reached the final of the Europa League last year. Clashing two teams from the same country has the advantage that at least one team can go ahead in the competition, but the other is compulsorily eliminated and for the UEFA ranking it could weigh heavily.

Agree, AC Milan is better because they have a more established squad. Pioli also has managed AC Milan for a long time, he knows well AC Milan squad. He won't get difficulty to determine a proper tactic to use for the next match. Meanwhile De Rossi, he is actually a new coach of AS Roma. He must learn many things about AS Roma, he is still analyzing which tactics is better to apply. De Rossi has more challenges than Stefano Pioli.

However, it is true that we shouldn't underestimate AS Roma although in theory AC Milan is better. AS Roma seems to have many improvements since De Rossi became the coach of AS Roma. It is not impossible if AS Roma can eliminate AC Milan because they have a stronger mentality to go far in Europa League.

This season AC Milan can actually be said to be better than Roma and it wouldn't be considered as a miss appropriation because Indeed they have really been good in their performance so far and I must say they have even done much more than Roma have done and the league where they have played this season is really much tougher than that which roma has and Roma  could have not been able to survive it.

If Roma were the team who has participated in the leagues where AC Milan has participated this season, I doubt if they would ha e been able to really get to where they are now because they don't look like they would have been able to take the pressure they would be getting from the leagues especially In champions league, they would have most likely been kicked out much longer than AC Milan did stayed although AC Milan wasn't in a very easy group, they were able to survive and get pass the group stage before they were knocked out at the round of sixteen but I doubt if Roma would ha e been able to get to that point of the champions league.

Roma although has aswell tried on their own path in that they have been able to still maintain an average frame despite all that they have had to face this season from their team , they had been coached by two Coaches this season so far so I think they have tried enough in that they still were able to get this far regardless of the circumstances they have gotten that did surrounded them all this while.
