UEFA Europa League 2024/25 Season

[Palakka]

Galatasaray might win the match but qualifying to the next round is still a big challenge to them because of their defeat away from home with three goals which seems very hard to score.

AZ Alkmaar was stronger than Galatasaray in the first leg and I still believe that those same players are the ones going to play the match. This might not make any difference in Galatasaray performance but with Osimhen presence, we might see a little difference.

Galatasaray's defeat in the first leg was quite big. It will be difficult to catch up on the goal difference in the second leg. Even with Osimhen in the team, their chances of qualifying are indeed small. Unless AZ really plays badly without tactics, and that allows Galatasaray to score a lot of goals. But we know that's not possible. AZ being able to win in the first leg is clearly a confidence booster for them in the second leg. I think even if Galatasaray wins, they won't make a big goal difference.

The second leg match will be a very decisive match for both teams, galatasaray who will play at home of course have great motivation to be able to win the match later especially reportedly osimhen will be their mainstay in attack m, I am personally very confident if galatasaray will be able to win the match later although it is a little difficult if Alkmaar plays with a solid defence, but what doubts me at the moment is Galatasaray chance to qualify for the round of 16 which looks very small after losing 4-1 in the first leg , despite winning in the second leg, but I am very pessimistic if they can beat Alkmaar with 4 goals without reply in the match later, because however if Alkmaar managed to at least score just 1 in the match, then Galatasaray will be even more burdened although they excelled in the match.

Matches like this are actually a difficult match to predict and can give a surprise. We can see examples of matches in other competitions such as UCL which have surprises that cannot be predicted. Although AZ is superior with a higher aggregate score, but it does not guarantee he will qualify for the next round. We must consider other results that can occur such as Galatasaray scoring 3 scores and AZ is unable to score. Finally the match will end in the penalty and Galatasaray can qualify for the next round.
In competitions like this we must consider many things because the team that is clearly visible can qualify for the next round can actually fail in the second leg.

Roma vs Porto

Both of the teams not have a good strength, but good enough in defense, I think the match will end in draw.

Porto football team and Roma football team will try to win this match and that match will be interesting for fans because all players will try to give hundred percent in this match. Th e head to head performance of both teams is looking similar because both teams have an average players who will try to win this match. The stats is slightly in the favour of Porto team because that team won one extra match from Roma football team because Roma team could win only 1 match against Porto team. Saelemaekers and Cristante are suspended for that match and these will not be available in this match and that is big lose for the team.Porto 3 players are injured which will impact on the performance of whole team and on the result.

Due to the injuries of almost 3 players of Porto and knowing well that AS Roma will be playing a home game, will make me have more hope for AS Roma, even though we all know that AS Roma is playing a bit better performance, and we all witness how the first leg was. It was an amazing and tough game for both teams, which ended in a draw, so AS Roma will try their best to win, which if the game came unexpectedly to them, it would be very tough for them, and then they will try to maintain a draw game so that they will be able to play a penalty shootout.

Although Porto might bring an unexpected strategy to face AS Roma, but we also don’t know the strategy that AS Roma will bring for use, let's just wait and see what will happen tomorrow on the pitch.

[Juse14]

I will be repdicting Roma to win  Porto and Mancehster City to win Real Madrid.

As for Roma vs Porta. i firmly believe Roma will win it. Although it's gonna be a hard game, it's following they have only home game as their morale booster. However, i'm not a fan to bet on one side, much prefer to take BTTS. I expect porto does parking bus that makes them struggle to score.

They often struggled to score against low block team in serie a, and i expect the same thing to happen as Porto has to do everything to ensure they won't knocked out from Europa League.

Unusually, Porto usually performs well when playing as the host, especially since they have a pretty good record when facing AS Roma. Porto's first matches were far from what was expected.

and with an aggregate of 1-1, Porto must fight even harder to be able to secure a position in the last 16 of the UEL, especially since the second match is an away match for Porto. and honestly I am quite pessimistic that Porto will win this match.

The second leg match will be a very decisive match for both teams, galatasaray who will play at home of course have great motivation to be able to win the match later especially reportedly osimhen will be their mainstay in attack m, I am personally very confident if galatasaray will be able to win the match later although it is a little difficult if Alkmaar plays with a solid defence, but what doubts me at the moment is Galatasaray chance to qualify for the round of 16 which looks very small after losing 4-1 in the first leg , despite winning in the second leg, but I am very pessimistic if they can beat Alkmaar with 4 goals without reply in the match later, because however if Alkmaar managed to at least score just 1 in the match, then Galatasaray will be even more burdened although they excelled in the match.

This season, Eredivisie clubs have performed quite well in European competitions, including AZ who managed to win convincingly over Ittaasaray in their first match. With the advantages that AZ currently has, I feel quite confident that M.Martens' team will advance to the last 16. Even though in the second match later Osimhen will return to play with Galatasaray.

Not sure about parking the bus because the result in the first leg was 1-1, so they will still play openly to score first. So, whichever team manages to score first, then it will make them play  more defensively to maintain the score and aggregate. But, if it is said that Porto will play defensively from the start of the match, then I am sure that is impossible, because Porto will also try to score first,  with an open playing pattern there will be a chance for both teams to score. But yes, I am also confident that AS Roma will succeed in qualifying, somehow the process is determined until the penalty shootout or can be determined only with 90 minutes.

Considering how Manchester United struggled to win Plzen and Rangers, I don't expect them to go very far in the competition.  In the round of 16 they will either face Real Sociedad or AZ Akmar (they both won the first leg of the playoff and are looking like the teams to qualify) and any of these teams is going to be a problem for Manchester United.
Even if they manage to make it out of the round of 16 by some miracle there are still more in-form teams up from that will be a problem for them. Teams like Lazio, Bilboa, Frankfurt, Lyon are teams tat can cause a lot of trouble for United.

Manchester United still have a very big task ahead of them of winning the Europa League after showing a poor form in the premier league, they need to at least show some seriousness in one of the competitions they’re participating in, that will at least give Amorim another chance to remain as the head coach of the team for another season since he already failed in the premier league in his debut season for Manchester United. They still have a lot of opportunity in the Europa League than the premier league now, so I expect nothing but the best from the manager in the remaining matches left for them to be played in the Europa League.

[Webetcoins]

Manchester United is increasingly having a crisis of important players in both the Europa League and the Premier League. Injuries to several players will be a big obstacle for Manchester United to go further in the competition they are currently participating in. If Manchester United still persists with the existing players then Amorim must find a way to utilize the existing players and fill the gaps in defense.

Actually, Amorim has to change a lot of things. The financial crisis also happened to Manchester, the defeats will continue. I doubt whether Manchester United next year can be without the Europa League?

Crisis and Manchester United long story small words now it's all in business of this giant English club which is struggling for long time and have no solution for their problems even they changed too many coaches every time result is not improving which is now terrible for them and their fans.

Amorim is currently one of the worst in last 10 coaches but still positivity is expected which is good their performance in Europa League is impressive which can give them some motivation for Premier League as well, but firstly they needed to check from where problems started which is not easy because no one able to set this in last one decade. Due to new format they are having good end of their first round and now having wait for knockout stages which could be not easy, but things can take positive changes, but they have to do something which is important but miserable.

[lixer]

Galatasaray vs AZ Alkmaar

This match will be interesting to watch because Osimhen is back! although Galatasaray need to catch up 3 goals in order to not lose which is hard, but the match will held in Galatasaray's home. I'm sure Galatasaray will win and I hope they can score many goals.

Roma vs Porto

Both of the teams not have a good strength, but good enough in defense, I think the match will end in draw.

After having first leg games things are looking interesting because mostly ended on narrow margins, but Galatasaray faced humiliating defeat which was really poor from their defense which was concern for them before this game.

Even now Osimhen is back but still they needed to be won by 4–0 which is not easy because AZ Alkmaar is not easy team to beat with result like this in few other games Porto is facing Roma which is surely good chance for Italian giants to secure their knock-out round spot. Ajax have good result in first leg, but they won with good margin on road now playing at home good advantage Fenerbahçe also have good chance of qualification as they are also having good margin, but things could be tricky in second leg game.

I doubt there will be a comeback in UEFA Europa League sincerely when I see how the teams are playing. Even if they have Osimhen, scoring even 3 goals against AZ Alkmaar without expecting to receive even a goal is something very challenging.
I believe the hardest matches will be the ones that ended with a draw like Roma and Porto or with one goal difference.

[bitgolden]

Teams that are doing not so great at their own league doing much better here is because most of the time they realize they can't do well at the league so might as well try harder and tire themselves 100% on these games. Of course it is not a simple decision or anything like that, but we need to realize this is going to be a tough deal for teams like United or Spurs, or if there are any other big teams. Maybe even Lazio?

I mean they are doing fine, fifth place, and could take to fourth place as well, but it is still not at the top. All in all, this is why I expect United or Spurs to do fine, sure they are not a good team this year, but they have nothing left to win, this is the only thing, so they will provide 110% on these games without a doubt.

[Slow death]

Galatasaray vs AZ Alkmaar

This match will be interesting to watch because Osimhen is back! although Galatasaray need to catch up 3 goals in order to not lose which is hard, but the match will held in Galatasaray's home. I'm sure Galatasaray will win and I hope they can score many goals.

Roma vs Porto

Both of the teams not have a good strength, but good enough in defense, I think the match will end in draw.

Porto is not doing well, and on the other side we have Roma who are very strong when they play at home. To give you an idea of ​​what I'm talking about, Roma have gone 8 games without losing and when they play at home they have a strong attack and defense. Playing against Porto who are not doing well, I see Roma coming out of this game with a victory. I don't know if Paulo Dybala will play.

I doubt there will be a comeback in UEFA Europa League sincerely when I see how the teams are playing. Even if they have Osimhen, scoring even 3 goals against AZ Alkmaar without expecting to receive even a goal is something very challenging.
I believe the hardest matches will be the ones that ended with a draw like Roma and Porto or with one goal difference.

Galatasaray's coach seems to have no experience in European competition games, he has a strong squad, they shouldn't have lost against AZ and now the current scenario seems irreversible to me

[Weawant]

They still have a lot of opportunity in the Europa League than the premier league now, so I expect nothing but the best from the manager in the remaining matches left for them to be played in the Europa League.

Most definitely Amorim cannot be judged by his performance this few parts of the season he took over form the previous manager as he's got just limited time and yet is trying to make the best of it by making efforts at the europa which is evident to an extent through his performance so far which shows some commitments for the europa where he's seeing potentials much more than the premier league as with the europa he will be able to achieve much more than he would if only he's attempt the Premier League.

[TelolettOm]

The return of Victor Osimhen to the Galatasaray team I believe will serve as a big morale booster for the team as they try to overturn the 4:1 defeat in the first leg if the knockout playoff ties against AZ Alkmaar. However I still doubt that they'll be able to overturn the deficit and progress to the next round of the tie. I think this is the most interesting fixture in the UEFA Europa League this week and I'll be looking forward to it.

Maybe the problem is, the aggregate is 1 - 4, and it is quite difficult for Galatasaray to be able to turn things around. Unless they can really make an epic comeback and can be that good in their defense and attack line. Because, Galatasaray must at least score 4 goals without reply to be able to win the aggregate. Even though this is their home game, it will not be easy. I said it will not be easy, not impossible.

Let's see what O. Buruk will manage and arrange to make the tactic really run stronger and as optimal as possible.

For a possible comeback to begin a 3-0 win is first needed, this is to level the game and then 1 more goal to win making it a total of 4 goals without conceding any. It's possible to achieve but we don't know AZ Alkmaar are preparing ahead of the match. Oshimen will definitely motivate and boast his team's morale to start a comeback; but how many goals will they succeed in scoring to secure them that win?.
I took will love to sit and watch the tactics Buruk Will come up with that will turn things around and move Galatasaray to the next round of the Europa league competition.

Manchester United is increasingly having a crisis of important players in both the Europa League and the Premier League. Injuries to several players will be a big obstacle for Manchester United to go further in the competition they are currently participating in. If Manchester United still persists with the existing players then Amorim must find a way to utilize the existing players and fill the gaps in defense.

Actually, Amorim has to change a lot of things. The financial crisis also happened to Manchester, the defeats will continue. I doubt whether Manchester United next year can be without the Europa League?

What is difficult for Amorim is because a number of important players they have are injured and the players on the bench also do not have the appropriate expectations to be replaced. We can see that during the match against Tottenham where he only replaced one player in the match. If relying on the players they have, then I also doubt that Manchester United can go further, especially in the Europa League.

When the main players can be fielded, Manchester United itself still has difficulty winning the match, especially if a number of the main players they have are injured, then I am sure it will be much more difficult for Amorim to maximize the existing strengths.

[tusandii]

The second leg of the play-off round will be held today which will determine who will qualify for the last 16. I think AZ Alkmaar and Fenerbahce have a greater chance of qualifying because they have created an aggregate of more than 2 goals and in this second leg maybe both clubs will play a defensive technique to maintain their advantage.
For today's match I will bet on only 3 matches with the BTTS and total Asia options but for BTTS yes on the Roma and Porto match the odds are quite tempting but also look risky hopefully Porto and Roma don't destroy my bet.

Actually, Amorim has to change a lot of things. The financial crisis also happened to Manchester, the defeats will continue. I doubt whether Manchester United next year can be without the Europa League?

Not only the defense line that Amorim must maximize through the players who are still there, but the front line also needs to be maximized as well as possible because apart from Lisandro Martinez who must be absent until early next year, Amad Diallo must also be absent for a season in order to recover from the injury he is currently experiencing. Meanwhile, the other five core players can still recover in the near future, although before entering March Manchester United still has to face several important matches in the Premier League and also the FA Cup this season.

Manchester United is currently looking for the best squad. So with several combinations the manager is trying to find the balance of the team. Injured players can have significant effects for Manchester United. For example, Amad Diallo has been an important player for Manchester United recently. His injury is considered to be at a level that will affect Manchester United's strength.

It's a very common thing, every club plans like this and then forms the team. A team not only needs to strengthen the playing eleven but also the bench players. But no one knows when a player will get injured, so if a good player of the team is injured at a crucial time, then it should be thought in advance that a good player from the bench is added to the regular eleven as an alternative. Manchester United may not have planned so deeply and by planning so deeply they may not have strengthened their squad but they are trying to perform well with their current squad. Last season Manchester United finished very badly so the management decided to change the manager and they changed the manager but now the question is how well this new manager can do for Manchester United. If this manager is given the freedom to buy players at will then I think he can definitely change the situation of the team.

[Obari]

We can see that during the match against Tottenham where he only replaced one player in the match.

When the main players can be fielded, Manchester United itself still has difficulty winning the match, especially if a number of the main players they have are injured, then I am sure it will be much more difficult for Amorim to maximize the existing strengths.

What else do we observed from the past coaches in Manchester United? In one way or the other, they've this common connection about having such terrible run at Old Trafford. They're been massively controlled by the board and having zero capacity when it comes to the affairs of the club. This is inappropriate, if the board are keen on improvement, they should work hand in hand with the manager they appointed and stop with the whole necessary process of handling the affairs. One more thing, the club's legends should also stop interfering with the affairs of the club because they've served no good purpose to the Red Devils currently, their playing days are over, remember that.

I will urge the present Manchester United manager, Ruben Amorim to change his pattern because it's not just working for the team currently. The former Sporting CP boss was doing quite well in is former team, embracing three points like weekly routine but now in his current team, he strives to survive. Amorim will have suitable run but it's matter of time.

Our representatives Galatasaray and Fenerbahçe will play tonight.

Galatasaray lost the first match 4-1, I have no hope for the match to be played tonight and I think we will be eliminated.

Fenerbahçe won the first match 3-0 and had the advantage, I don't think they will be eliminated by Anderlecht. They may lose the match but they will not concede a 3-point difference.

Fenerbahçe won the first match 3-0 and had the advantage, I don't think they will be eliminated by Anderlecht. They may lose the match but they will not concede a 3-point difference.

Sad results for Galatasaray as they lost 4_1 in the first game to AZ Alkmaar to reduce their hopes of qualifying for the next phase of the competition I was really disappointed in the performance that Galatasaray put up against AZ Alkmaar but football is one game that is full of surprises so let see if they can stage an upset  by winning the game 3:0 at regulation time and take the game to extra time just luke what psv did against Juventus in the champions League the good news is that oshimen is back in this game so it will be a booster for Galatasaray going into this game but they have a  mountain to climb if they are to go through to the next round
