UEFA Europa League 2024/25 Season

[Velvet78]

Porto - Roma seemed like a really competitive game in the first leg just as I expected. It ended 1-1 but I can still say Roma played better and they were the one getting ahead first too.

I think Roma will be the one advancing to next phase here. Porto didn't look convincing even home and I expect them to be in a bigger trouble in Italy.

My predictions for other qualifiers are like: Twente, FCSB, AZ, Ajax, Real Sociedad, Fenerbahçe and Viktoria Plzen.

I think I have similar opinion with you on the Porto vs Roma tie in the knockout playoff of the UEFA Europa League competition. Roma though failed to win the first leg of the tie but even as an away team, they performed better and would won if they converted their chances in that game. The second leg of that game will be at the Stadio Olympico which we all know is their fortress so I expect them to beat their Portuguese opponents and progress to the next round of the competition.

Ajax is a club that is predicted to be able to be in the last 16. In the first leg played at the opponent's headquarters, they were able to bring home the victory with 2 goals that they were able to create. In the second leg they will play as hosts which is very advantageous for them. Already leading 2 goals and will act as hosts, it must make most people say that they can advance quite easily. However, they must stay focused, do not be lulled by what they get in the first leg, they can celebrate if they have ensured themselves to qualify for the last 16.

Currently Ajax Amsterdam is in its best form, both in the Eredivisie league and the UEL playoff round. In the Eredivisie, Ajax managed to stop the dominance of PSV Eindhoven and even now Ajax has managed to top the league.

Meanwhile, regarding Royale Union Saint-Gilloise, although they performed quite impressively in the Belgian league, they have not been able to really bring their dominance to a higher level, so that in the end they had to lose badly to Ajax in their own half.

And regarding the second match of the UEL playoff round which will take place at the Amsterdam Arena stadium, with the aggregate advantage that Ajax has and appearing as the host, of course they are very favored to be able to qualify for the last 16.

In the first leg, Roma played well and managed to make Porto's defense overwhelmed. The match was quite tough, with several yellow cards and one red card. Of course in the second leg, they will get an advantage. But I hope they also play better at home.

For other candidates, the visible advantages are obtained by AZ, Ajax, and Fenerbahçe. The others only have a difference of 1 goal, which of course, can be reversed at any time in the second leg. We know every team wants to win, and that's what sometimes makes the situation unpredictable.

Amorim knows that it will be impossible for him to finish on top four this season, and EPL clubs are becoming stronger including the weak ones. This makes it very difficult for United with the challenges that they're having to cope with the league because their performance is not solid enough to survive in the league. However, in UEL the clubs involved don't understand United game pattern which is an advantage.

In this competition there are teams that can be said to be quite strong either in their Domestic League or in the Europa League, if Man United meets these teams, it is likely that they will have difficulty defeating them. it doesn't mean that I underestimate Manchester United, but as we know that their situation and condition are indeed unstable. let's look at their line up in each match, as if Amorim continues to experiment by rotating his players. he tries everything to match his system with his players, but as we know until now Amorim has not found a line up that is truly ideal according to his version. like right now, for example, Man United is playing a match against Tottenham, Zirkzee is rotated to the wing, as well as new player P Dorgu is played as a wing midfielder. so, don't be surprised if Amorim will rotate in this competition too. honestly, I'm not sure what Amorim wants. what is certain is that the team he coaches is not in accordance with his expectations. but let's imagine, if they are able to enter the final of this competition that would be something great.

Roma's guarantee to qualify for the next round is certainly easy. Because when playing away, Roma is able to provide resistance. And just imagine how Roma will perform optimally to score a larger aggregate score than Porto.

And regarding several teams that will qualify for the next round that you mentioned have odds like this,

• Real Sociedad odds @1.06
• Viktoria Plzen odds @1.96
• Fenerbahçe odds @1.02
• Twente odds @1.52
• Roma odds @1.42
• FCSB odds @1.33
• Ajax odds @1.03
• AZ odds @1.14

From these odds we can see which team has very small odds that make us believe and even bookies are sure that the team will advance to the next round. And if anyone will use it for parlay betting, you will get odds of around @7+ if you are lucky.

I think Ajax advanced to the Europa League with the advantage of playing the return leg in Holland. They won the first leg by two goals and the Belgian team could not score in the match. If they had scored one goal, they might have had a chance in the return leg but it is really hard to beat Ajax in Holland. This will be the most difficult thing for them. The teams that will advance this week will be clear but I think some of the teams that will be eliminated will be: Anderlecht, Saint Gilloise, Galatasaray. They still have a chance against the other teams but these teams will most likely be eliminated.

[tiCeR]

.

But you could easily discern that Galatasaray couldn't ignore the red card. Instead of trying their best and keep playing, mistakes occurred more often and they were still at odds with the facts. Receiving a red card is never fun, but they are pros and should know that there can still be ways to get a good result and at least keep the door open to advance to the next round for the second leg. Now it is almost impossible.

C'mon man give them a break, it's like mission impossible to be one man down and still defend well and even turn the game to be in your favor. No doubt that there are rare occasions that when a team possess a red card  they still manage to play well but that would certainly not be something you get to put on the scale especially in an competition of like Europa champions league where almost all the teams are out for qualification.

I never said it is simple to resist pressure from the opponent when you are one man down, but there are teams that do not lose their minds and still focus on their own abilities and manage to get away at least with a black eye, which under some circumstances could mean a draw or a result that still saves the opportunity to make up for that mess in the second leg. But Galatasaray is known for losing their minds in many of the critical situations that can happen in football.

When I look at Roma's results in Serie A I start to think that they should be the favourites in the Europa League and not United and Tottenham with their miserable results.
As for the "guaranteed" outcomes, I think these are Fenerbahce, Sociedad, AZ and Ajax, that is, if you make a multi-bet (or add these outcomes to a larger multi-bet), you will get only 1.27. +27% is actually very good.

I was surprised to see Ajax in the playoff race because they are the top team in their league and they are doing well, but some lapses in their Europa League matches might be the reason they couldn’t make it among the top eight teams, but it is not too late because they can still make it from playoff.

After teams like Manchester United, Lazio, Fenerbache, and Tottenham; I think Ajax should also be listed among these team because they are also big teams, but their inconsistent UEFA Europa League caused it, but u think they have started to correct some the mistakes.
 A 2-0 win away from home is a great advantage to Ajax because they will comfortably rule the second leg and make it to the round of sixteen in order to be among the favorites because I believe in them.

However, in UEL the clubs involved don't understand United game pattern which is an advantage.

Top four is so far for them such that I'm beginning to believe that they are very likely to end up around top ten because they aren't looking like they will make it anywhere beyond the top 7 that's if they are lucky enough to ge tto 7 but what looks more realistic for them is 10 and this isn't something that should in anyway be blamed on amorim and that I'd because he made it to Manchester United only but a few months back and cannot get Manchester beyond what they can actually achieve within a very short period of time.

There is nothing to be proud of from Manchester United journey this season in the Premier League, they continue to have bad days, and most recently Ruben Amorim and his squad suffered another defeat at Tottenham home. Manchester United position in the Premier League standings is currently very worrying, they are ranked 15th with 29 points. I think there is no more talk about Manchester United chances of finishing in the European zone this season, they are already too far behind. Manchester United chances are now in the Europa League and FA Cup, I agree, Ruben Amorim cannot be blamed entirely for The Red Devils current slump in performance. It is difficult to boost the team performance in a short time with the depth of Ten Hag legacy squad.

With the results obtained, the chances may be small to turn things around and I don't think Galatasaray will be able to do it. The red card received by the Galatasaray player did affect the pattern of the game so that AZ Alkmaar was able to dominate the course of the match and the four goals they managed to score will be difficult for Galatasaray to turn things around in the second leg. It's almost over for Galatasaray because it's not easy to get that big aggregate even though the second match will take place at home.

Indeed, the accumulation of yellow cards received by K. Ayhan did make their midfield immediately drop, especially since Galatassaray had previously been left behind 2-1. Of course this affected not only their performance but also their mentality. Indeed, the second leg will be held at Galatasaray SK, but it is quite difficult for them to make a comeback with a quick epic. Even though they are the top standing in their domestic league, but here, it's all not the same.

Yes, if Ajax win, they will meet Frankfurt or Lyon in the round of 16, so it is not easy to advance to the next round. However, they should be grateful, because in the other bracket, there are several top clubs to face if they qualify for the round of 16.

The match between Porto and Roma may continue evenly and perhaps penalties may decide the team that advances. It is very difficult to make a definite prediction on this subject. However, Roma seems to have the advantage at the moment. I still think that the possibility of the match ending in a draw should be discussed. The teams that will advance in the other matches have been more or less determined, but this match is still open to both teams to win.

However, they must stay focused, do not be lulled by what they get in the first leg, they can celebrate if they have ensured themselves to qualify for the last 16.

In the first leg, Ajax was indeed able to beat its opponent, Union, quite convincingly. Because I can win without conceding at the opponent's base, I think this is a very great thing. But don't forget that Union also seems to have a good midfield and front line. For this reason, in the first leg, Union was also able to provide significant resistance against Ajax. So in the second leg, Ajax shouldn't underestimate Union just because they won the first leg and played at their home base. Because Union could surprise Ajax in the second leg. Because no matter what, Union definitely wants to qualify for the round of 16. So it is certain that the Union players will also show their best performance in the upcoming second leg.

Apart from that, currently many Ajax players are suffering from injuries, especially in their back line and as far as I know, the number of injured players is 9 players. So, for example, in the second leg against Union, the Ajax players who suffered injuries have not yet recovered. I'm worried that this will make the Ajax players' performance a little less good. For this reason, the Ajax coach must prepare thorough anticipation in case his injured players have not recovered when they face Union.

It is very difficult to give a  prediction about this match. However in the first leg match, I thought Roma would win. Because Porto's performance was a bit weak for a while. On the other hand  Roma's  performance was quite good. But in the end, the match ended in a 1-1 draw. The second leg match is Roma's home match. Roma will definitely  have some home advantage. However  Porto is a very experienced team. So the second leg match will undoubtedly be very competitive. And I agree with you that the match is  more likely to end in a penalty shootout.

This makes it very difficult for United with the challenges that they're having to cope with the league because their performance is not solid enough to survive in the league. However, in UEL the clubs involved don't understand United game pattern which is an advantage.

In the English Premier League, Manchester United is far away from the teams that will be in the 1st to 4th position of the points table, so no matter how well they perform this time, they will definitely not be able to reduce this gap of points and take a place between one and four of the points table. This is mainly the reason why managers are not giving much importance to Premier League but they are giving more importance to Europa League. Managers and players know very well that if they focus will on the Europa League, they can surely finish the season with a good result here. If Manchester United performs poorly in the English Premier League, on the other hand, if they can finish the tournament in a good position in the Europa League, it would certainly be commendable and they are moving forward to do so. But even if they don't do well in the Premier League this season, they must do well in the Premier League next season because their Champions League next season depends on doing well in the next season.

Targeting the Europa League title is final destination for Manchester United to bounce back into action in UEFA Champions league next season. Watching their current and previous stats, there's absolutely no difference anyone could possibly acknowledge, the old Manchester United under Erik Ten Hag and the one under Ruben Amorim, tell me the difference? They're even getting worse because placing their hands on three points becomes such a huge challenge. Manchester United fall backward to 15 position on the EPL table. After losing to Tottenham Hotspur 1 nil which was hard knot for them, they're now securing a second standard. We've come to conclusion, Manchester United is not buckling up anytime soon, they will strive for more complex circumstances.

[hyudien]

Having to chase 3 goals is not an easy thing, even though they will play as the host, but still those are 3 goals that they must create in a fast time. The away team must also realize that they have a good advantage, they will definitely maintain it. Playing more defensively might be an option. If Galatasaray cannot create a quick goal, then it will be very dangerous for them, because then they might be frustrated and that is not good for them. At least they must be able to create a goal in the first half to make them more enthusiastic to catch up.

A quick goal will determine the outcome of the match because usually those who score a quick goal will have the opportunity to catch up on the goal deficit in the first leg. Playing total defense can also affect the pattern of play so that it will make Galatasaray much freer to dominate the game, but the problem is how far they can score goals to make their chances of advancing to the next round greater. If you look at the number of goals conceded by Galatasaray, there is probably little chance for them to turn things around in the second leg because in any case the opponent will definitely play more carefully.

Az Alkmaar must be aware of that, that they are on top, and they should be able to play more comfortably and confidently with the advantage they currently have. Total defense may not be done by AZ Alkmaar, because they also have the ability to hold the ball. The more they allow Galatasaray to continue to dominate the game, the more dangerous it can be for them. What could be an option is that they can apply a deeper defense, but they still hold the ball, it will frustrate the opponent, because whether Galatasaray plays openly or not, it could be a risk for them.

[len01]

the old Manchester United under Erik Ten Hag and the one under Ruben Amorim, tell me the difference?

If we have to differentiate the two coaches, it seems difficult to differentiate. Because last season Ten Hag brought MU to compete in the UCL and currently Amorim is bringing MU to compete in the UEL. This means it is not fair to compare the two coaches. But what is certain is that in the current UEL Amorim has succeeded in bringing MU to get 5 wins and 3 draws without being defeated. And if the question of the difference is directed at the appearance in the EPL, I will answer that there is no change whatsoever. We all know how the line-up of players brought by Amorim is still the same as that formed by Ten Hag before. Unless Amorim makes a major overhaul by recruiting the players he hopes for.
