UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season

[Altryist]

Indeed, Liverpool is a big, strong team too, with the experience they have had so much that makes them have a special name or nickname because their play tends to be better from match to match, and this makes Liverpool have an advantage. All teams are definitely chasing victory, of course this is due to extra training and encouragement from their own coach who certainly provides support and direction to show their best game for their own team.

However, even though Liverpool already has a lot of experience and can be called a strong team, that doesn't mean they can't lose, they can sometimes lose against other teams, even though Liverpool is facing a team that is said to be small, they can't underestimate it because Each team definitely has its own strategy to show its best game. Whichever team they face, they must remain alert, lest they let their guard down and cause the match to end in defeat.

It’s true that weak teams couldn’t get into the quarterfinals, here you need to respect every opponent, but Klopp understands this well, he is a coach with vast experience. Liverpool is my favorite in the EL, I don’t see who could stop them from becoming champions, even Bayer can’t do it. Although it is also not correct to say so, if some team can play well enough in defense and bring the matter to post-match penalties, then there is already a lottery.

Even if Leverkusen push West Ham out of the competition I also think their job against Milan or Roma would be more difficult. I just wonder how their future performances will be first. Because if we see a similar football to the one in the Qarabag matchup then I would still have doubts about Leverkusen to reach finale.

Otherwise Leverkusen can defeat all of these teams technically. They are still undefeated by the way which is insane. 

Why rush it?
Bayern Leverkusen are far better than West Ham United this season and they will defeat them eventually, this is not the game to worry about.
Between Milan and Roma, I feel like Ac Milan would get onto the next round. They will get the better of the game when they clash come next week Thursday.
They As Roma might be buzzing quite all right, but Milan has got to show them power that they're top dogs in the European Competitions.

Bayern Leverkusen just qualified for the cup finals in the German Cup Competition. I'm sure that would be the second trophy to lift high up in the sky.

I have doubted Leverkusen a lot in this season. But they have proved themselves again and again. So I am not going to doubt them anymore. And the performance that they have shown so far, I am pretty convinced that they might actually be able to lift the Bundesliga title, the Europa League, and the DFB Pokal as well.

I am actually a little bit confused between Milan and Roma. Because both of them are performing well right now. Yes of course Milan is ahead on the table in the Serie A. But I don't know if that is good enough evidence to say that they are going to win in other competitions as well. I think this is going to be a tight one.

In terms of squad depth, I think Liverpool and Leverkusen will still be superior to Liverpool because even though these two teams are the teams in first place in their respective leagues, there are very clear differences in terms of squad. Because everyone can see how stressful the game is in the Premier League and the Bundesliga, so from that difference we can take a reference that the squad from Liverpool is slightly better than the squad at Leverkusen. However, the Liverpool team themselves cannot underestimate Leverkusen because they also don't know what strategy Xabi Alonso will use in the Europa League this season if the two actually meet in the Europa League Final this season.

Liverpool has good achievements in European competitions history, I am sure in this match, Liverpool can ensure a ticket to the next round. Leverkusen must pay attention to every movement of Liverpool players, because Liverpool's current performance is better than last season.

I think this game will be the most interesting match and for me I think Leverkusen might just edge through because of the things they know are at stake. For Liverpool it's a slot at the next round of the champions league but for Leverkusen it's two things involved which is their glorious unbeaten run and also a chance at lifting a European competition for a very long time because I believe Liverpool are by the only team that will certainly pose a threat to them.

Bayern Leverkusen may seem to be more consistent than Liverpool but you can't compare the experience of Liverpool in European competitions to that of Leverkusen and if I'm not mistaken, this is the first time Bayern Leverkusen is achieving such milestone in their history in European competitions whereas Liverpool have gotten more experience than them.

It is not the first time Leverkusen joined UEFA Europa League. Before this season, Leverkusen already joined it in the season of 2010–2011, 2012–2013, 2015–2016, 2018–2019, 2019–2020, 2020–2021, and 2021–22. So, Leverkusen is experienced enough in UEFA Europa League. Although they never won UCL or UEL trophy but they have enough experience in the top European football competition.

Bayern Leverkusen and Liverpool may look like the too strongest team in the Europa league currently but let's not underestimate the strength of AC Milan and Roma more especially AC Milan because they have also gotten more European experience even better than Liverpool so a lot will be expected between Bayern Leverkusen, Liverpool, AS Roma and AC Milan.

I think both Liverpool and Leverkusen won't underestimate AC Milan or AS Roma. However, AC Milan or AS Roma seems not to eliminate them even if they must play against them in the semi-final round. Liverpool and Leverkusen look very well prepared to reach the final round for this season. Moreover, Leverkusen has no problem anymore with injured players.

So, Leverkusen is experienced enough in UEFA Europa League. Although they never won UCL or UEL trophy but they have enough experience in the top European football competition.

I didn't say that this is their first appearance, understand me correctly, if you look at the area I highlighted in my write up I believe you understand the meaning of "milestone" because literally, if you check Leverkusen European competition appearances I don't think they were unbeaten till this stage they are now and the resilience and energy they've shown so far have never been witnessed in the club's European competition history before so for them to be able to maintain such form is applaudable of the coach, the team and it's management.

Liverpool was built with an expensive squad, while Bayer Leverkusen was lucky because of the great success that Xabi Alonso made and thus, of course, basically the quality of the Liverpool and Bayer Leverkusen squads is clearly different. But even so, of course we also realize that Bayer Leverkusen is still in a very extraordinary trend until now so that Bayer Leverkusen is also a team that is a candidate for the title in the Europa League this season. Indeed, there will still be difficult matches to be played and as such, of course there will always be considerations about whether Bayer Leverkusen will succeed or not to reaching the final match of the Europa League this season. Therefore, the competition that occurred this season is really very interesting and yes, this is because of the extraordinary results that Xabi Alonso managed to produce for Bayer Leverkusen.

Liverpool,  Bayern Leverkusen and Ac Milan has good years before in this European League football,  they would try to do same yet again in the coming weeks.
I want Liverpool to win it for Kloop anyway,  he has done well for rhem after all these nine successful years.
But ad he leaves I am sure all these player will leave with him because a different pattern and coach will be brought in who may not handle them in the right sense.
Ac Milan are also striving but not securing this one would mean sack for that coach.  He has a bad season already.

[Ndabagi01]

West Ham this season is not much better than last season so I think Leverkusen should not encounter significant difficulties if we look at the overall strength of the two teams throughout this season.

However I saw a little bit back and the scary things that happened in the round of 16 when Leverkusen faced Qarabag happened again, we can see that Leverkusen had a very difficult time facing a team that was not much stronger than them.

For this reason, I am sure that the West Ham match will continue to be fierce even though Leverkusen is the favorite and it is also possible that there will be surprises.

 I am not expecting any surprises in this match and if it is about recent and league match performance, Bayern Leverkusen have it more than West Ham United. What happened in the round of 16 with Qarabag will be hard to repeat itself and if it does, we all know what Bayern Leverkusen will do immediately, always having a comeback or a win that is close to the end time of the match, which has always giving them a good chance over all other teams in terms of confidence and trust in them to qualify for the next round of the competition.

Where I am expecting to see a fierce match is the match that will be coming after this round, they will either be meeting AS Roma or Milan depending on the team that gets the qualification to the semifinals. As for this their quarterfinals match, it shouldn’t stress them a lot because with all proofs, they will win this match and advance to the next round of the competition.

The threat Liverpool will pose to Leverkusen will be really enough to even het them to possibly get to loose the Europa trophy title this season and possibly get to end the long kept unbeaten record for this season by the team so far but then i still believe that Leverkusen will definitely try their best to making sure they are able to get the very best results from the game buy then that will actually mean them doing a whole lot of work.

Liverpool is even more eager to win the Europa much more than Leverkusen only that its looking more like the first time for Leverkusen so they are trying to make sure they get the very best out of this trial and couples with the fact thst they have actually been in a very good form to facilitate the performance too aswell so i don't think they will want to back down at this point rather they will want to their very best even if they don't eventually get to win but they will be able to also get the record of a very good trial that they have gotten all this while in the Europa.

Other teams in the Europa are not actually underestimated buy then we still believe that Leverkusen a d Liverpool has shown some exceptionalities which has made them stand out a d most persons seeing them as favorite because of their exceptional abilities since this season in the Europa, i don't think other teams are even sure buy they will just have to try regardless room because they believe they may gat an opportunity.

Of course, we can say that Liverpool is better in terms of squad depth, and this is due to how competitive the EPL is. Bayern Leverkusen is a soft team that is on the rise this year and has an undefeated streak. They have a disastrous chemistry with Xabi Alanso. I think they are very threatening to win consecutive trophies. Liverpool have analyzed this threat well and will try to fend it off in the best way possible.

The teams you listed here are all experienced in the Europa league but this time around the teams are in different form and we may expect good results from different teams regardless of the form of the teams listed here. Liverpool and Leverkusen are currently in good form in the league and the record they have got since in the Europa League is a clear evidence to show that they are one of the favorite to win the trophy but other teams are also looking forward to win but the performance of the teams will determine who the favorite team will be, Liverpool is trying to win the trophy to bid farewell to them coach while AC Milan coach needs the trophy to secure his job, Leverkusen needs the trophy to add to their list since they will probably win Germany league so it depends on 5he outcome of the game to know which team will win the trophy.

[Nheer]

You are right, Leverkusen have a 100% winning record in the group stage which they are the only team capable of doing so. But Leverkusen drew 2-2 against Qarabag in the first leg of the round of 16 and were 100% lucky to win the second leg in injury time. Leverkusen certainly has a better record this season in the Europa League compared to Liverpool, but both are teams with different quality and squad depth.

Having 100% record means they won all their matches but having a single draw will mean they are not having a 100% win record. Leverkusen performed excellently well in the competition so far and with their success in all competitions they participate they have the upper hand of being the favorites to win the trophy.

Liverpool and Bayern Leverkusen have been both exceptional in the competition but comparing squad depth and quality of players i believe Liverpool has better players and more squad depth than Leverkusen but Leverkusen has better playing style.

Another thing that differentiates Liverpool from Leverkusen is their league, where Liverpool comes from the Premier League which is known as the most competitive league at the moment, while Leverkusen comes from the Bundesliga whose competitive level is ranked fourth. If seen from this point of view, I think Klopp fleet deserves to be slightly more favored than Xabi fleet.

Meanwhile, regarding Leverkusen performance, there is no denying that this season they have performed consistently throughout the season without being defeated. Regarding squad depth and experience, of course Liverpool is far superior, but I admit that Xabi fleet has a more effective style of play to achieve victory. Apart from that, in terms of mentality, both teams show that they are title contenders.

Apart from all that, Liverpool and Leverkusen really deserve to face each other in the final, but that is still very far away because the competition just arrived in the quarter-finals, and anything could still happen. By not ignoring the quality and depth of a squad like Milan, I think this season Europa League will present many surprises.

The experience and the level of achievements in all UEFA leagues may not be the same but Bayern Leverkusen is not a stranger to European competitions. They are not always seen as favorites in all the seasons they've participated but they've accumulated enough experience. So much so that they can be considered a regular to Europa or Champions League.

It's not the team but the managerial experience that will most likely set them apart.

It's not the team? What do you mean by that? I think that the team they currently have is quite extraordinarily strong. Of course Alonso has an impact and that can't be overlooked, but the team is playing phenomenal because they have phenomenal players. Their will power is a huge strength they have. They never give up regardless of the situation and the minute they are in. Whether the game seems to be lost or not, they keep going and so far they got all the rewards in return.

Bayer Leverkusen without doubt is one of the best teams in the whole of Europe as far as this season is concerned and if we should compare their results against that of Liverpool this season, it obvious that Xabi Alonso's men will definitely come out as the better team but that doesn't mean that they'll beat Liverpool if both teams meet each in the UEFA Europa League final this season (considering the draw for the quarter and semi finals, that's the only way the two teams could meet).
Liverpool is a more experienced team when it comes to European competitions and also have players that are more experienced in European competitions than their Bayer Leverkusen counterparts so if the two teams should meet each other, I think it'll be a very difficult game for both clubs.

I'm going to be following the Milan - Roma matches closely in this round. It feels like we will watch really delightful rivalries. 

Since De Rossi started his job there is some good progress for Roma but there are still points in need to be improved. While Milan are in a really good form I wonder what Roma will do against them in the Europa League. The Europa League title must be really important for Roma. Because this is one of the ways to join the Champions League. They aren't as comfortable as Milan in the Serie A right now. We will see if Roma will show this in their performances too.

The quarterfinal match will certainly give us an exciting spectacle, regardless of their competition in the current league, of course, the competition in the Europa League is a fierce competition with knockouts so that the two teams inevitably have to destroy each other in the match of life and death later,  Speaking of Roma, of course de Rossi managed to make Roma a little better this season in the league, but still De Rossi is under pressure to be able to achieve better than Mourinho in the Europa League last season who made it to the final.

Roma chance to qualify for the Champions League next season certainly has a difficult road in my opinion, in the league they have to work hard enough to reach the last 4 and because there is intense competition from Bologna, Roma and Atlanta to fight for Champions League tickets which in my opinion only have 1 left at the moment, while Roma journey in the Europa League is in my opinion harder for them,  Because in addition to having to beat Milan in the quarterfinals, of course, if they can reach the semi-finals, of course strong opponents will await them as well as in the final that may meet their with Leverkusen or Liverpool.
 In my personal opinion, Roma's chances of playing in the Champions League next season will be very difficult for them from that the both paths, like as difficult for they can beat Milan in the game later

Matches between two Italian clubs are not promising as interesting matches because their tradition is to prioritize for defense, not for attacking. De Rossi let Roma play more attacking recent months but in important matches of season like this, I don't know he will take risk when playing against a strong opponent like AC Milan. Through his player career, he knew how dangerous AC Milan are, and it can affect his decisions for Roma tactics.

Bayer Leverkusen without doubt is one of the best teams in the whole of Europe as far as this season is concerned and if we should compare their results against that of Liverpool this season

They have a long unbeaten streak but they did not meet many strong teams in Bundesliga. Biggest teams in Bundesliga are Bayern Munich and Dortmund, and Leverkusen were not tested too seriously in Bundesliga. When they move to Europa League, just two matches in round of 16, we saw that they did not shown their strength too well when playing with Qarabag.

Yes, thanks to De Rossi, who became Roma coach few moments ago, he managed to show changes slowly and everything was clearly visible when he started getting lots of wins and the quality of playing performance was much better than before.
But both team are in the same domestic league, namely Serie A, AC Milan is strong enough team to maintain 2 place in the standings and Roma is in 5th position.
In the League they met also showed the results that AC Milan was much stronger by successfully beating Roma.
I know that the results in the League will not always be the same as other competitions such as the European League but for both team it is clear who has the advantage.
I not sure that Roma will be able to play well and beat AC Milan in the two first leg and second leg matches, what is clear is that AC Milan is the favorite and is expected to eliminate Roma from the Europa League in this quarter-final.
