UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season

[QueenVera]

The match between Leverkusen vs Roma will definitely be more interesting because these two teams are both favorites in the European league this season. Regardless of who makes it through to the final, of course we have to see their game in the two legs later. For me, seeing the good journey of both of them in the European League this season cannot be separated from the role of their coach who is able to encourage his players to perform better. It's just that Leverkusen has just managed to secure a title in the domestic league so they are motivated to perform better in order to aim for a second title.

Well, if Roma were runners up last season, even though they were considered weak in the group phase, their performance appeared to improve in the round of 16 and the quarter-finals. Roma is slowly being able to show its best strength under the direction of De Rossi, they are now quite focused on the European league and it seems that Roma wants to aim for a Champions League ticket by successfully becoming champion.

At the moment, the UEL this season is left with 4 teams set to battle it all out at the semi finals. The strongest team said to be Leverkusen will be facing the second toughest Roma and I must say it all seems like the UEFA board wants Leverkusen to go home with the trophy. Comparing the probability of the game outcome taking into consideration both teams performances so far, Leverkusen is the better side and they have the greater advantage over Roma. Yes Roma can be competitive and can make the game tough but Leverkusen's record won't let them stay down to be defeated. Really it'll be a game to look out for as in the first and second legs, both teams would put up their best to seeing if they can secure the 3points.

 The last two teams aren't much of big strengths as they've had minor records so far in their European cup quests. If either of them wins, it'll be a walkover game for their final opponent because either Roma or Leverkusen would be a better side to them considering experiences gained and domestic league performances this season. Atalanta or Marseille aren't tough teams and if I'm to predict the qualified team to be, I'd go for Atalanta based on they are a little above the average performance of their normal performance. The semi finals won't be an easy battle as anything really can happen on the field of play.

 Leverkusen's qualification to the semi finals of this season's UEL was also historic as they kept their unbeaten record still in play after drawing to West ham. This season they've been an undaunted team and they really have all it takes to finish the season with the unbeaten record intact and two trophies in their shelf. Their next UEL opponent is competitive but it's not really a big deal for them based on the fact that they have gained enough confidence and have even being in tougher encounters which they've at thesame time comfortably come out from victoriously. Roma themselves know that they won't be up for a joke game in the semi finals stage.

It will be very interesting if Roma pull off an upset against Bayer Leverkusen in the semi-finals, as Liverpool were unexpectedly knocked out of the quarter-finals despite being a title-winning team. If Roma pull off an upset, two of the Europa League's favorites will be out of the tournament long before the end of the season, leaving teams who are not considered favourites, relatively speaking, a chance to win the title.

Leverkusen have very good form in this season and recently so they will less likely to have shocked defeats like Liverpool. In general I think Leverkusen and Roma are not too different in quality. Their chance to win for Leverkusen and Roma is like 60% and 40% and with this slim difference, Roma actually have chance to beat Leverkusen.

It's logic to say Leverkusen are stronger and have better chance but if Roma can show off best traditional character of Italian football, they can constrain Leverkusen attacking strength. Then from this success with defense system, they will see chances to beat Leverkusen.

We probably know that the Italian team's game is always good in terms of their defense, if As Roma plays from their strong defensive system like Atalanta did when facing Liverpool, Leverkusen might have difficulty scoring goals against As Roma if the defense is quite difficult but Xabi Alonso probably already knows about this and he seems to know how to face this Italian team, As Roma is not an opponent that Leverkusen can underestimate and Leverkusen are not the type to underestimate their opponents because they always play their best no matter who they are facing.

Victory is definitely desired by both teams, therefore the match between the two will definitely be interesting to watch because there are two coaches who in my opinion are quite good. In my opinion, they will compete with tactics and strategy, who will be better between Xabi Alonso and De Rossi, of course they are will put pressure on their team to play as hard as possible and get a win so they can advance to the UEL final and win the UEL title this season, I'm not sure who will win it but I will bet that both will score goals in this match.

There are four teams left in the Europa League. Roma, leverkusen; Marseille, Atalanta. And I honestly do not see any problem for Leverkusen to actually not be able to win the Europa League competition this season. They have played throughout the whole season, if they play like that in the Europa League as well, I do not see why it would be any problem for them to win the Europa League. Roma is performing well I agree. But the performance from Leverkusen has been really incredible and almost unmatched. If anyone has to beat Leverkusen this season, they will have to come up with an incredible plan and also perform really incredibly in the field as well. And I just do not see that happening with all the teams that are left in the Europa League.

Of course, Leverkusen is currently experiencing an increase in performance, so they have become a strong team that is almost unrivaled. with matches that are always good and final results that are quite satisfactory for them bring benefits to them. Also, I think Leverkusen hasn't had any problems in its recent matches, I think Leverkusen can continue to perform well in the future so they can make new history.

with their next match, perhaps the one that will make things quite difficult for them is Roma, because Roma is not an easy team, I think of course Roma will definitely try to show their best to be able to beat Leverkusen. but if Leverkusen wins the first leg, maybe they will be more confident in the next match.

[Volgastallion]

Im gonna wait for thursday games and to see how Rome make a good game against Leverkusen and maybe can make a good noise, and take some win, take care of this, Rome can beat Leverkusen.

About Marsella and Atalanta nothing to say, in the end Atalanta is gonna be in the final, Marseille is a shit team ,and they dont have any mental strengh.

Of course, everyone will consider Leverkusen as the strongest candidate to win the Europa League. Xabi Alonso needs to pay more attention to his defense line which has recently been a little weaker than before, conceding two goals in the last match almost made Leverkusen suffer its first defeat before managing to equalize near the end of the match.

Roma cannot be underestimated, as long as De Rossi was coach there, his performance was much better than before. If they want to maintain their winning record and win the Europa League this season, Leverkusen must prevent all small mistakes such as underestimating opponents or their players committing offenses that can be punished with a red card.

I don't know how the Marseille vs Atalanta game will end, but these two teams cannot be underestimated because they have gone through various challenges before reaching the semifinals.

The match against Roma will of course be a difficult match for Leverkusen in the Europa League, but it does not seem that it will reduce the chances of Leverkusen can win over Roma in the semifinals later, Roma revival with De Rossi is of course very worthy get of our recognition because indeed De Rossi is able to make Roma better than Mourinho, but even so of course Roma also still have weaknesses that Alonso may have known and of course Alonso will take advantage of that for get win.

I agree if you say Leverkusen are a little weak in their defence as seen in the last few games, but the sharpness of the front line that Leverkusen has certainly been able to cover up those weaknesses so far and the proof is that when they fall behind but Leverkusen are able to make a comeback, I think Alonso is not the type of coach who likes to underestimate opponents all this time and that is why Leverkusen are able to maintain their unbeaten record because it is Alonso It will make every game like a final and of course spark the motivation of the players to be able to win every game they have this season.

[tygeade]

It will be very interesting if Roma pull off an upset against Bayer Leverkusen in the semi-finals, as Liverpool were unexpectedly knocked out of the quarter-finals despite being a title-winning team. If Roma pull off an upset, two of the Europa League's favorites will be out of the tournament long before the end of the season, leaving teams who are not considered favourites, relatively speaking, a chance to win the title. Bayer Leverkusen bundesliga has performed well so this type of mistake is unlikely for this team but if Roma perform very well then it will be difficult for Bayer Leverkusen to go to the next round. But if there is a match between Roma and Bayer Leverkusen then my bet will be in favor of Bayer Leverkusen.

I honestly was shocked when I saw Atalanta won 3-0, because NOBODY in the world that we can't really predict that type of thing which is why I believe that we are going to end up with a greater result. I mean think about it, it is Atalanta, who would have guessed that they would be able to beat a team like Liverpool.

However, to be fair we are seeing Liverpool end up being third in premier league, so it is not really that easy to make sure that they are doing well, they have lost so many points in the premier league as well, so it is not just the Atalanta game that they lost to. I think that seems like we are seeing them not do all that well, so it is not really that clear how they are going to do in the end. We should probably consider them not doing all that well all together and not just here.

About Marsella and Atalanta nothing to say, in the end Atalanta is gonna be in the final, Marseille is a shit team ,and they dont have any mental strengh.

Let's wait, follow the developments and enjoy when the semifinal match is held. of the two matches that were held, it seems that AS Roma vs Leverkusen was a more interesting match than the Marseille vs Atalanta match. referring to the temporary betting market, bookmakers do not provide too different a difference for each team that will compete. It's just that in the match between AS Roma and Leverkusen, Xabi Alonso's squad was superior to the home team. For now there's not much I can say about either team, whether it's Roma or Leverkusen. but what is certain is that Leverkusen has a fairly high chance of reaching the final match of this competition. But we'll see if De Rossi is able to break Leverkusen's unbeaten record so far in various competitions, it's interesting for us to wait.

As for the Marseille vs Atalanta match, it seems we have different interpretations. I am not speaking based on predictions based on the results of analysis that I have not carried out, this is just my personal guess and hunch that Marseille will be able to win the match against Atalanta. To be sure, we are waiting for the Europa League semifinal match to be held in the next few days.

I appreciate your optimism regarding As Roma in this match, maybe it could happen if the goddess of luck sides with As Roma in this match, however, in my opinion, in the few times I have seen As Roma play in the Domestic League, it seems that they always have difficulty in several matches that As Roma plays in  Serie A, does not intend to bring down or underestimate the game and compare it with Leverkusen, on the other hand we both know that Leverkusen's strength is very strong, they have not experienced defeat in the Domestic League and the game that Leverkusen played was very beautiful and almost perfect, even though they came as guests at  the first leg is not likely enough that As Roma will be able to overthrow Leverkusen easily, it is very clear that the games played by As Roma and Leverkusen are very different from their visitors, so As Roma will most likely experience a narrow defeat at home or worse, they will experience defeat with a score  big.

I don't know why the bookmakers are giving odds with little difference between Marsella and Atalanta, knowing that Marsella in the last 5 league1 games only had 1 win and had 2 defeats and 2 draws and are in position 7 in the league1 They won't even get a place in the European Champions League, but strangely the bookmakers are seeing this game with some balance



while Atalanta in the last 5 games have managed 3 wins, 1 draw and only 1 defeat and still have a good chance of getting a place in next season's European Champions League. so the only thing that I suspect led the bookmakers to place balanced odds on this game is the fact that Marsella are very strong when they play at home, in the last games in which Marsella played at home, they had few defeats, and Atalanta will need to be careful in this game. I still see Atalanta coming out of this game with victory if they play well like they did in the game against Liverpool

[hahay]

But if there is a match between Roma and Bayer Leverkusen then my bet will be in favor of Bayer Leverkusen.

I actually hope Roma will meet Leverkusen in the final round. but in reality, they have to beat each other in the semi-finals.
Roma's performance is quite good. they eliminated Milan in the quarter-finals. Leverkusen has to consider the strength of the Roma team, it is not simple.
I'm not so sure, but Roma will probably qualify for the final round. I'm still quite doubtful about betting on this match. but in the first leg, maybe you can bet on Roma.

For now I think AS Roma has experienced a decline in performance and thus, then I think AS Roma no longer has a chance to be able to beat Bayer Leverkusen. Because after all, the reality is that Bayer Leverkusen is still very consistent with its unbeaten record and therefore, of course, Bayer Leverkusen will still have a very good chance in the semifinal match in the Europa League against AS Roma. Indeed, I also realize of course in football anything can happen, especially about matches in the Europa League, because a team like Liverpool also got a crushing defeat against Atalanta. But I don't care about such things because it is clear, that Bayer Leverkusen is still very stable with a very extraordinary trend until now and therefore, I will still choose Bayer Leverkusen until the final match later.

[jakdanyel]

Honestly I'm not expecting Roma to lose tomorrow. Most people would favour Leverkusen but I still think Roma won't lose home in the 1st leg. De Rossi's arrival has started to change things for Roma. They are stronger and especially in home matches I have really liked their performance so far. Even against Xabi Alonso's team I think De Rossi won't be losing already.

But for the second leg I wouldn't have the same opinion. I already favour Leverkusen to advance to the final. But I just expect a tough challenge before that. 

[Abu-Naim]

Im gonna wait for thursday games and to see how Rome make a good game against Leverkusen and maybe can make a good noise, and take some win, take care of this, Rome can beat Leverkusen.

It’s funny seeing how you downgraded Roma in this match; it seems you see them as a team with hope against Leverkusen in this semifinal which I understand you, but you know that football can surprise us the some shocking results which Rome’s result might be among them because I still have hope in them.

About Marsella and Atalanta nothing to say, in the end Atalanta is gonna be in the final, Marseille is a shit team ,and they dont have any mental strengh.

Atalanta is my favorite in the match because eliminating Liverpool is not an easy task and it has given them more hope in the game against Marseille.

It's a tough game to predict as I am not sure what to expect from Roma. Leverkusen will play their high speed football and try to score at all cost. That's just how they work and they are not the kind of team that would try to play down the clock and take a draw. Roma, however, is probably going to adjust their game to whatever happens. If they score quite early in the game, I think they will try to slow down and destroy Leverkusen's game rather than focusing on their own game. If they could achieve a win with just a goal difference, they would definitely take it and play the typical Italian style in the second leg. Hopefully they don't score early as it's no fun to watch these games when Italian teams are parking the bus.

It is not only you, most people expect the same thing. Leverkusen vs AS Roma should be in the final round because they are the favorite teams to win the Europa league trophy. Sure, they must face one another in the current round, this can be a difficult match to predict. However, Leverkusen is still the most phenomenal team during this season. Even if AS Roma should have the chance to beat Leverkusen, but I think it is rather small chance. The most possible thing to happen is Leverkusen to defeat AS Roma. Leverkusen is still unbeaten in all competitions, they probably won't have a problem to beat AS Roma. Moreover Roma performance looked not really stable lately, they got a draw against Napoli and got a defeat against Bologna.

Defeating Leverkusen is something that I cannot say anything on, amd I still doubt if it will bepossie that it is Roma, De Rossi sqaud that will be able to break Leverkusen unbeaten record after all this long period of time.

This is why I think that Roma might end up drawing the game of Leverkusen winning the match. I am not underestimating Roma, but I must talk based on facts on ground. Roma current form is not in its best, and that might affect their performance in the match against Leverkusen, while Leverkusen is in their best form.

The first leg of the UEFA Europa League semi final tie between German champions Bayer Leverkusen and Italian club Roma will be played on Thursday at the Stadio Olympico and because of how impressive Bayer Leverkusen have been this season, many are of the opinion that it'll be very difficult to beat them. In the last 45 games that Bayer Leverkusen have played in all competitions, they've never conceded a defeat so it's absolutely understandable why majority of the people are backing them to beat AS Roma even when Leverkusen are playing away.
Xabi Alonso is one manager that's earned the respect of so many people because of how he's improved the team and now that his team have secured the league title and qualified to play in the final of the DFB-POKAL, adding the Europa League trophy will not be a bad idea so I expect them to go all out in that game

Leverkusen is in a very good morale the face this semi-final game. Them succeeding to keep unbeaten is a moral boost to achieve another ambition in european stage. Roma need to be at their best to enter into this game. Danielle De Rossi can't let his team to make another mistake after losing to Bologna which makes their chance to finish top four getting smaller.

Roma need to maximalize their home advantage, because their away games record is not in their favor. They need to win with more than one goal, because playing away against Leverkusen is too difficult to gain favorable result. Leverkusen is having full focus now, because they have already secure the league title. They are exploring their chance to create a big history for their club and for themself.

About Marsella and Atalanta nothing to say, in the end Atalanta is gonna be in the final, Marseille is a shit team ,and they dont have any mental strengh.

I hope Roma perform well in front of their supporters, they must take advantage of the home game to match the extraordinary quality shown by Leverkusen. Last season Roma managed to get rid of Leverkusen with an aggregate of 1-0 over two legs, but this incident is very difficult to repeat because Leverkusen's level is much better than last season.
De Rossi certainly wants to take Roma to the final, but the coach's ambition will be very difficult to realize if his team is not able to perform well at the Olimpico. Roma must be wary of Leverkusen's strength, which is very dangerous compared to before. Apart from successfully breaking Bayern Munich's dominance in the Bundesliga, Leverkusen has also not lost once since the start of the season.

There is no doubt that Atalanta will reach the final easily because Marseille has performed very poorly this season, before winning two wins in their last four matches, Marseille had experienced five consecutive defeats in all competitions. Atalanta also just managed to get rid of Liverpool in this event, Liverpool were made to look like a mediocre team that couldn't do anything in front of their supporters. His prowess at Anfield will make Atalanta even more obsessed with winning the match over two legs to appear in the final, especially since Marseille is not as strong as Liverpool.

[OcTradism]

Roma need to maximalize their home advantage, because their away games record is not in their favor. They need to win with more than one goal, because playing away against Leverkusen is too difficult to gain favorable result. Leverkusen is having full focus now, because they have already secure the league title. They are exploring their chance to create a big history for their club and for themself.

They will have two matches to fight and a draw at home is not too bad for Roma. They can wait for chances in a second leg in Germany but if possible, they will try to beat Leverkusen in Italy first. It will open a gate to the final match and help them to have more choices in tactics for a second semi final match.

De Rossi certainly wants to take Roma to the final, but the coach's ambition will be very difficult to realize if his team is not able to perform well at the Olimpico. Roma must be wary of Leverkusen's strength, which is very dangerous compared to before. Apart from successfully breaking Bayern Munich's dominance in the Bundesliga, Leverkusen has also not lost once since the start of the season.

Both coaches actually want to bring their teams to the final match, no doubt. Xabi Alonso will have a second season in Europa League with Leverkusen. With a defeat under Roma last season in semi finals, Xabi will want to do better this time. With better performances of Leverkusen and more experience from Xabi, Leverkusen will bring lot of difficulty to challenge Roma and can have their first Europa League final match with his club.

De Rossi will have to think not only two semi final matches with Leverkusen but also two other big matches in Serie A with Juventus then Atalanta. He will have 2 severe weeks that decide this season for Roma.
