UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season

[Palakka]

They will not give up and will fight for their own chance to have a position in semi final round but their chance is not too good. Three goal difference is too much at this level and they will have to play home away in Bergamo. Atalanta is not a big club but if they can beat Liverpool with three goals at Anfield stadium, I believe they will be strong enough to secure this big advantage at their home stadium.

They have another support from not too good form of Liverpool recent matches. Atalanta will only need to start this match with maximum carelessness in their approach by which they will reduce risk from Liverpool a lot.

Today we will see how Liverpool can re-open their chances as one of the favorite teams to be able to compete again, the first leg defeat is of course quite painful especially it happened at Anfield with a big enough score, I think many of here are pessimistic if Liverpool can turn things around in the second leg, Atlanta have the advantage of playing at home and certainly they have learned how to dampen the surprises that might be going Give by Liverpool in the match later, currently Atlanta is on paper to qualify for the semi-finals because they only need a draw in the game, but looking at Klopp's interview a few days ago who was quite optimistic that he could make a comeback, of course Klopp has also prepared their team well before the game starts.

The chance of a comeback is of course still there for Liverpool if they start well, and I think Klopp will no longer repeat his mistake of playing some second-tier players like the first leg in the opening minutes of the game, now the Europa League is another opportunity for Liverpool to win the trophy after the Premier League seemed to be a difficult target this season.  In addition, if Liverpool can play well and without conceding, of course, their chances of a comeback like when facing Barcelona in the Champions League in 2019 could be repeated at home to Atlanta.

Liverpool's chances of qualifying are still below 50% because they are 3 goals behind this is quite heavy and if 3 goals are owned without reply then it is something that cannot be believed, but I know anything in the match later hopefully there will be surprises.

I don't see West Ham going through, Leverkusen are on fire they will continue to win without losing maybe the minimum result is a draw that Leverkusen wants.

The match is 4 hours away, so the line-ups won't be shown now, but I feel Liverpool will field their entire main squad so it could be Liverpool winning even if it's not above 3 goals.

In terms of opportunities, Liverpool are now at a smaller number than before, because they have to chase 3 goals first and that is a distance that is not easy to catch, especially since Atalanta will definitely anticipate everything that Liverpool will implement in this match. In the first leg they appeared to attack but they couldn't score a goal, in the second leg they will go all out to attack Atalanta's defense to catch up with them.

Now Liverpool is actually in a dilemma, on the one hand they are prioritizing the English Premier League, but they have left it there. On the other hand, this is a form of anticipation if they fail in the English Premier League. The scenario they will have is not profitable at all, I mean they both have difficulties in the two different competitions. But they will still try as hard as they can and I don't think they have to think about the end result, they just need to work hard now and let the results be a different story.

Well seems like if Liverpool fails today and West Ham also fail we are not gonna have any english team in the semifinals of europe tournaments (i dont count conference is low level) i dont know when was the last time this happen.

I dont see the starter eleven from Liverpool yet, so i cant decide if im gonna bet on them or not.

I agree with you i think that Liverpool will go with their main squad today to try and make a miracle comeback! But i think they will win against Atalanta but not qualify for the next stage because three goals to make up is just huge. Leverkusen will go for a draw or win to try and keep their unbeaten run so im going with them aswell in this match.

Some terms that will make liverpool to win the game.

1. Must make more than three goals.
2. Cleansheet
3. Three goal & cleansheet, then win penalty.

These terms are so difficult for liverpool to make it happen. No doubt that even bookies are also feeling very pessimistic with it. I personally pick atalanta to win the game. Things are getting even more easier since atalanta probably played defensively against liverpool.
Liverpool has no chance other than going all in against it.

I don't see West Ham going through, Leverkusen are on fire they will continue to win without losing maybe the minimum result is a draw that Leverkusen wants.

It's hard to imagine that but westham's position is slightly better compared to the liverpool at this time. They must make draw or win with three goals and cleansheet which is impossible to be real.
This is why picking leverkusen is a must in this game considering that it is superior compared to the westham. Im sure that leverkusen is fully understand to the way westham was playing the game

The match is 4 hours away, so the line-ups won't be shown now, but I feel Liverpool will field their entire main squad so it could be Liverpool winning even if it's not above 3 goals.

True and we will be seeing so many matches to happen at the same thing. It makes me quite confusing which match to watch lol.

A surprising result is expected in this match, but I think Liverpool's chances of getting them through are quite slim as 3 goals at home could be a burden.

I don't see West Ham going through, Leverkusen are on fire they will continue to win without losing maybe the minimum result is a draw that Leverkusen wants.

Draw is the second option if Bayer Leverkusen is unable to win. By confirming that they own the Bundesliga title, it feels like Leverkusen will play carefree at the London Stadium.
I had plans to watch this match to see what Xabi Alonso does. That is, it is possible that Xabi will close all of this competition without losing.

Sometimes football is very hard to predict. It is really full of surprises; some unbelievable things do happen sometimes. But as for the Atalanta match against Liverpool, the favorite team to qualify to the next level should be Atalanta. They really have a great opportunity to advance to the next level with the three goals Atalanta have down. So, from my own observations, even if Liverpool win the game, I don't think it may be possible for them to win with 3-0 because Atalanta also has good attacks tactics. So, I believe even if Liverpool will win the game, it will not be with many goals.

I think Atalanta will definitely play defensively because they have a 3 goal advantage. They will play in a low defensive line and will make it difficult for Liverpool to build attacks. Liverpool has many weaknesses which Atalanta managed to expose in the first leg. I think it will be difficult to cover all those weaknesses. Unless Klopp changes their playing tactics. I think the match will probably end with 2-1 for Liverpool or 2-0 for Atalanta. My reason is that if Atalanta managed to score the first goal I think it would destroy the mentality of the Liverpool players and there was a chance for Atalanta to end the game with a score of 2-0.

Liverpool are won’t take any chances, they need to fill in all of their full squad in order to get early advantage of dominating the game ahead of Atalanta who are already three goals above them. The chances are low that they qualify but everything can change in the first half of the game or later in the second half if they’ve the most possessions and can convert most of their chances to goal.

West Ham and Bayern Leverkusen match is still very much in favour of Bayern Leverkusen. After their first leg win, I just see them already gone through to the next round of the competition which in my opinion will be much harder to pass through that they will now. Bayern Leverkusen won’t want the winning streak to end now, so I feel they’ll do their best to prevail in this match this night.

[xzone]

I am still optimistic that Liverpool will try their best to turn things around at Gewiss Stadium, because Liverpool have memories of several comebacks against defeats with big scores and they have the ability to turn things around. And I hope that those memories can be repeated in this important match.
Maybe Liverpool will win this second leg, but the big goal difference is not enough to get them into the top four but that is not my hope. And in this second leg match, Atalanta will be more favored, apart from having good capital because they were able to win the first leg with a score of 0-3 in front of Liverpool supporters. And in the second leg they will play in front of their supporters, and this will be a difficult match for Liverpool.

It will be a very difficult match for Liverpool. The fact that they lost with a 3-goal difference in the first match is a huge disadvantage for them. No matter how much they have prepared for tonight's match, it will be a very difficult fight psychologically. They need to score quickly in the away match, they can achieve the result they want in the match thanks to the 2 goals they will score in the first half. We will watch a match where Atalanta will try not to concede a goal, the tempo of the match will be very high

It's very hard to happen. Im still wondering what line ups that's gonna be used by liverpool in the upcoming game.

Do you know that the things that really surprise me to see how bookes keep give very small odds for liverpools although it will be playing away game against atalanta. That's unbelievable thing to see.

Look at the odds here.



Atalanta is still being unfavored to win the upcoming game. It means bookies believe if liverpool can do a comeback against atalanta soon. This is a golden opportunity to bet on atalanta. I'd rather than bet on atalanta win, BTTS or atalanta qualify. These choices totally make sense.

I can also expect over 2,75 goals to happen in this game. It's getting even more complicated for liverpool to score if atalanta will be once again doing parking bus soon. Atalanta was not a weak team.

Bookies gave us golden opportunity to get decent amounts of money easily. It's fuckin nice. I expect klopp will not be so stupid like the first leg in using the compositions to the upcoming battle.

Salah must have played since the first half and this is a must.

The Liverpool team needs to start the match quickly by turning a new page and getting results with fast attacks without thinking about the goals in the previous match. They will try this, but the probability of success is really low. Moreover, the match will be played in Italy, Atalanta's own home, which is an additional factor that will make Liverpool feel pressure. Atalanta must defend the necessary defense to maintain a three-goal lead. Gian Piero Gasperini must have a good defensive game plan this evening.

IMO, Liverpool has a big chance to win this match. but we know that it is quite a tough challenge to win an aggregate of more than 3 goals without reply, especially since the match was held in Bergamo, Italy, Atalanta's headquarters. Betting on Liverpool winning is the ideal choice, but I can't say for sure whether Liverpool will qualify. If you want to score goals, Jurgen Kloop's squad is capable of doing it. The problem is, Atalanta's reply goal. my estimation, this match can choose Over above 3 goals or handicap option -1 @72 for Liverpool.

Other matches, we agree that Leverkusen will qualify for the next round. which means, West Ham stopped until the quarter-finals. The most interesting thing for me is the Roma vs AC Milan match, this match has the potential to end in a draw. If so, Roma will automatically qualify for the next round. In this match, I will wait for the action of the AS Roma players, and my estimate is that Roma will be able to qualify for the next round.

[Jody.Drummer]

Another interesting match is between AS Roma vs AC Milan. In the first leg, AC Milan had to suffer a narrow defeat against AS Roma which meant they were trailing 1-0 on aggregate in the second leg. AS Roma has the upper hand because they have the advantage of winning 1 goal and they will also play as hosts in this match. However, they do not have a guarantee that they will be as successful as in the first leg, we have to look at the fact that AC Milan is also trying to maintain their last chance to win a trophy this season, there is no other choice for them apart from winning.

Oh yes, it is reported that De Rossi has received a new contract with AS Roma after his good performance with As Roma replacing Jose Mourinho. This actually doesn't surprise me, at first he was only appointed to handle AS Roma until the end of the season, but when he plays well then AS Roma will not miss out on something good for them, namely retaining De Rossi.

De Rossi deserves a longer contract at the club. Because he has succeeded in raising Roma's performance to a better level this season. Even in Serie A, Roma are now approaching Bologna and will be fighting for tickets to UCL.

And in the Europa League, I think Roma also has a pretty big chance of being able to repeat the same thing as last season, namely qualifying for the Final. So I think even in the match against Milan I would prefer Roma. But Milan will also fight hard because this is the only chance for Milan to win a trophy in the remainder of this season. Because Serie A already belongs to Inter. And Milan can only fight in the Europa League.

The match is 4 hours away, so the line-ups won't be shown now, but I feel Liverpool will field their entire main squad so it could be Liverpool winning even if it's not above 3 goals.

Don't forget that Liverpool team is among the king of come backs they can bring in a new Origi that will score 3 goals in less than 30 minutes and it will be another history since we have seen results of that kind though not really in the Europa League but such scenario has happened countless times in the Champions League which Liverpool was one of the team that came back from 2 goals down to qualify within few minutes to the final whistle. Liverpool scoring 3 goals from away against a team like Atalanta is possible but winning the game against them is difficult because the Atalanta team is sure of scoring more goals even as Liverpool wants to score goals so I think Liverpool chances are just 30%.

For West Ham and Bayer Leverkusen game, everyone knows that Leverkusen is in decent form already so it's going to be difficult for West Ham to qualify ahead of them and seeing that they want to maintain an unbeaten record in the competition I think they will possibly go for a draw and qualify for semi finals instead of getting defeat today.

This will be the most competitive match today. Because unexpectedly Roma won the away match. Milan is not a weak team. Even compared to Roma, Milan's squad is stronger. However, Milan were defeated at home. Roma will want to draw the match in today's match. Roma can qualify for the semi finals only if they draw the match. Roma's match strategy is good and defense is also strong. Roma are more likely to qualify for the semi-finals.

I am not interested in Liverpool vs Atalanta match. The Liverpool team was badly beaten in the home match. Liverpool lost by a big margin of 3-0. Liverpool will win 4-0 today seems very unlikely to me.

[Jegileman]

Well seems like if Liverpool fails today and West Ham also fail we are not gonna have any english team in the semifinals of europe tournaments (i dont count conference is low level) i dont know when was the last time this happen.

Liverpool is to be the better team in this matchup and should have proved to everyone that they are the better team from the first leg of the match but they failed to prove it and also made a lot of people to lose trust in them after been beaten by Atalanta with three goals to none. Tonight their fate will be decided, whether they’ll go home like Manchester City and Arsenal did yesterday to focus fully on the Premier League or continue their race in the European competition. I haven’t lost hope in them totally yet because football is unpredictable and Liverpool are also good at comebacks. Very soon we can tell if Atalanta can hold on to Liverpool’s pressure or vise versa.

And as for Bayer Leverkusen, with how well their performance is now, I don’t think West Ham can stop them from advancing to the semi-final. It's very clear that Leverkusen is in greater form than West Ham. West Ham may give them a tough time, but Leverkusen will find its way to the semi-final. Let's see what will happen at the end of the day.

West Ham prowess can’t be compared to that of Bayern Leverkusen, so I will also vote for Bayern Leverkusen to win this match. West Ham are also good but their current form isn’t enough to stop Bayern Leverkusen from qualifying to the next round of the Europa League. It’s just a matter of time from now, the team that will advance would have been decided. Bayern Leverkusen can still turn things around even in the final minutes, even when West Ham begins to lead, it is not certain they’ll have the qualification because they’ve also conceded some goals in their first leg match.

I am not interested in Liverpool vs Atalanta match. The Liverpool team was badly beaten in the home match. Liverpool lost by a big margin of 3-0. Liverpool will win 4-0 today seems very unlikely to me.

It's not about Liverpool having to make 4-0 to qualify, but atleast Liverpool can still try their best to at least be able to win with a score of 3-0 also in normal 90 minutes. If Liverpool can do this, then ofcourse the match will continue to extra time or maybe it will also continue until the penalty shootout. So yes, basically Liverpool still have a chance even though it will certainly be difficult but yes, Liverpool should be able to do it with the quality that Liverpool have because at least, Liverpool also have a good winning mentality. Therefore, this match between Atalanta v Liverpool in the second leg remains a very interesting match, because of course Liverpool will have great efforts to be able to turn things around.

[Catenaccio]

Liverpool is to be the better team in this matchup and should have proved to everyone that they are the better team from the first leg of the match but they failed to prove it and also made a lot of people to lose trust in them after been beaten by Atalanta with three goals to none.

In Cups, a winner will be decided after two matches, one at home stadium, one at home away stadium. Liverpool are stronger than Atalanta but in a first leg, at home, they lost big, not only 0 - 1 or 0 - 2 but 0 - 3 to Atalanta. I don't argue that Liverpool will still be considered as a stronger team in the second match but will it be helpful for them on field?

I doubt about it as Liverpool will start the match with lot of pressure and Atalanta will begin with with more comfortable tactical choice and they actually have many ways to complete the second match and be a winner finally.

Tonight their fate will be decided, whether they’ll go home like Manchester City and Arsenal did yesterday to focus fully on the Premier League or continue their race in the European competition.

I believe tonight will give us the end of two other Premier League clubs in Europe, Liverpool and West Ham. It will be the end for Premier League clubs' hope to fight with Bundesliga clubs for a second position among leagues. Chances for Liverpool and West Ham to go to semi finals is very small.

Atalanta must defend the necessary defense to maintain a three-goal lead. Gian Piero Gasperini must have a good defensive game plan this evening.

Liverpool tonight will decide their fate if they will still be in the Europa or end their journey at this point because they have got only this game as a determinant to their chances of still staying in the Europa league this season, Liverpool has actually not been really good with much goals in an away game and in their most recent away games, they have been able to get three or more goals only but a few times.

This statistics gat me thinking if there's a possibility of them been able to produce such results this night because it's basically what they need against Atlanta to be able to still staying the Europa league this season so they most definitely need to reinforce their team and Atlanta since this season don't seem to have suffered severe loss such that they will be above four goal behind so it's most definitely going to be a difficult tsk for Liverpool to achieve that for a chance in the Europa again this season. Atlanta isn't actually really a tough team but more of an opportunistic team.

Liverpool may want to redirect their energy into winning the Europa this season especially as it's their last Europa they will be having with klop and aswell the 21st semi finals in the Europa league if they actually get to win Europa well enough to qualify for the next round of the league but then the I'm keeping an open mind ywt optimistic resentment for Liverpool because i personally want them to tase the victory and lift the trophy for the last time before the exit of their coach which wouldn't be a bad idea.

And in the Europa League, I think Roma also has a pretty big chance of being able to repeat the same thing as last season, namely qualifying for the Final. So I think even in the match against Milan I would prefer Roma. But Milan will also fight hard because this is the only chance for Milan to win a trophy in the remainder of this season. Because Serie A already belongs to Inter. And Milan can only fight in the Europa League.

Yes, de Rossi made a lot of changes after Mourinho left Roma and was replaced with de Rossi, Roma's future looks much brighter and currently Roma's success is almost close to the previously planned goal of getting a ticket to the champions league and trying to win the title. at UEL.
Talking about who will qualify for the 2nd leg of this match, I think your choice is right because Roma will definitely do their best when competing at home after getting a higher aggregate score than Milan.
If Roma can maintain consistency in today's match, I am sure that to qualify for the next round, Roma has a big chance.

Proven!! Roma was truly extraordinary to be able to beat Milan consistently even though they only appeared with 10 players and I really have to admit that Roma deserved to qualify for the semi-finals with this great performance.
After fighting for a long time and now I can be happier to be able to qualify for the semi-finals, but de Rossi is again under pressure to face Leverkusen, while Leverkusen is a representative of the Bundesliga which has extraordinary strength without defeat since the start of the season and this puts strong pressure on de Rossi to looking for ways how Roma can qualify for the final round with a very small chance.
Being able to beat Leverkusen is just a miracle or luck, but for de Rossi this is a challenge because if he can beat Leverkusen, de Rossi will receive praise from all over the world for being able to beat Leverkusen.
