UEFA Europa League 2024/25 Season

[ndutndut]

The match is going to be very tough and interesting. This kind of game is not always easy to predict because Atlético Bilbao are in serious form, and Manchester United are also doing great here in the Europa League. With that, I can't confidently say which team will win the match based on both teams' performances in the Europa League.However, looking at their domestic league performance, I might be a little more convinced and say that Atlético Bilbao is the favorite team to win this match, and I’m confident enough in that assessment.

If I were to predict further, I would say that each team might win their respective home game, as that seems to be the only way I think Manchester United can beat Atlético Bilbao. However, winning against Bilbao in their home game is something I can't confidently say, as Bilbao have a strong defensive line. For Manchester United's players to break through that Bilbao defense, it’s going to require a great effort.

Manchester United are really helpless in the domestic league, they are really bad. Not clinical, can't take advantage of clutch moments, too careless in defense. Manchester United in the domestic league always have problems or bad luck that makes them not win so they are consistent and inconsistent. However, it is understandable because Manchester United has no motivation in the domestic league because to pursue the European zone is far away and the relegation zone is also safe.

So in my opinion Manchester United's performance cannot be seen from the domestic league because they are no longer motivated, for them only the Europa League title can save them this season. The first leg of course Bilboa is very favored because they play in front of their own supporters, and of course they want to pursue victory for capital in the second leg. Amorim understands very well what to do in this match, he certainly doesn't want to be reckless by playing openly in this match, he will definitely rely on counterattacks. This match is fierce, so my prediction is that this match will not have many goals.

The English teams are playing under a burden of pressure. Man Utd and Spurs falling in the semis to weaker opposition would make the PL look weak. Ange and Ruben must get their teams to win.

Feel free to share your thoughts, predictions and bets on this thread.

• UEFA Europa League is the second cup of Europe.
• Atalanta is the last winner of this cup.
• The most successful club is Sevilla with 7 titles.

Previous season thread: UEFA Europa League 2023/24 Season.

I foresee a final where Manchester United will be thrashed by Spurs. If Spurs reach the final, Son will become their Messi, Richarlison their Diego Costa (one touch, one goal), and Pedro Poro their Trent Alex or Song (assists from behind).

Either way, as a big fan of English football, I wish Arsenal, Manchester United, Spurs, and Chelsea all the best in their Semi-final matches.

This season Manchester United is also improve in the Europa League because they’re also to win the Europa League this season, we all know that the Athletic Bilbao is very strong for now. Because if we look their previous matches they have a wonderful time with their opponents; so in this case I know that Manchester United will receive a lot of pressure from them.

But predictions against Athletic Bilbao that they will have a higher chance of winning the against Manchester United, I don’t think they make that happen. Because at time a weak given a surprise that nobody will even expected that’s why I didn’t have too much hope for them they can able to win the match.

[Mayor of ogba]

who do you think will be crowned the Europa King ?.

I think it's between Bodo and Bilbao. Tottenham and United are too inconsistent unless we ignore their EPL results. Then again, they managed to stage a crazy win in this league, so I might be off and United will win this instead. If the choice is between United and Spurs, I'd like Spurs to win it because it would be crazy to see them play in the UCL next season after finishing 17th or so.

If I want to bet on the results, I'd bet a narrow win for Bodo against Tottenham.

We know that Manchester United is inconsistent this season and they struggle to win their matches, but no team was able to beat Manchester United with their awful performance in the Europa League. So many people believe Manchester United wouldn't reach the semi final of the Europa League with their awful performance, but Manchester United keeps winning against any team they meet in the Europa League to prove their haters wrong. United to the semi final. I believe Manchester United will get through to the Europa League final. I want Tottenham Hotspur to beat Bodø/Glimt and get through to the final so that if Manchester United successfully beats Athletic Bilbao, the Europa League final will be easy for Manchester United to win.

I wish it will happen like that to see Manchester United face Tottenham in the final of the Europa League this season because they both deserve to be finalist this season, and based on the opponents they will play in the semifinals, Tottenham have the highest chance of qualifying to the final because they are facing an opponent that is weaker than them even though they are also not in good form this season. While Manchester United will play against a tough opponent Atletico Bilbao, it will be difficult for Manchester United since they are not in good form, and Bilbao had been good this season because they are the fourth position in the Laliga, while Manchester U urged is nowhere to be found in the top ten of the Premier League this season. Nevertheless, Manchester United can still make it to the final even though their chances is slim.

So far, Man United has managed to maintain an unbeaten trend in the Europa League, this fact can certainly strengthen the assumption if you want to place them as the favorite team to win this season. Actually, if you ignore Man United poor performance in the Premier League, they do deserve to be favorites based on the depth of the squad they have. Amorim has more complete attributes, and we know Man United is much more experienced in competing in European competitions.

On the other hand, I also hope that Man United will face Tottenham in the final, so that it looks like an ideal final. However, defeating Athletic Bilbao in the semi-finals is much more difficult, Man United must fight like when they beat Lyon. If Man United fails, they will face a much more difficult situation, because Amorim relies on a ticket to the Champions League to rebuild Man United squad next season.

Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur might likely qualify for the Europa League final, but the final won't end in a way that Tottenham Hotspur will thrash Manchester United. What you demonstrate in your post about Son playing like Messi, Richarlison playing like Diego Costa, and Pedro Poro playing like Trent Alex or Song if Tottenham Hotspur reach final won't happen because they are not the people you want them to play like. If you can remember the last time Manchester United won the Europa trophy, they were struggling to win their matches, and they managed to qualify for the final, where they easily beat Ajax by 2 goals to nil, so I believe Manchester United will likely repeat the same thing this season.

[kawetsriyanto]

Friend, are you blind? Why did you write a whole sheet of nonsense without reading my message?
Are you saying that United (when coached by Mourinho and historically in general) or Chelsea during the Abramovich doping era are not top clubs? That they are like Villarreal or Sevilla or Eintracht?
Please reread our dialogue and be surprised at what nonsense you wrote.
I'm surprised you didn't include Liverpool in the category of bum clubs that won the Europa League   Like: "Oh, you see - an ordinary, unremarkable club from the Premier League won the European Cup"  

It was an error of quote. I've corrected the quote.

I don't blind, I know what you mean exactly.  
I may have a wrong perception of your post, maybe that's what you mean..

I know Liverpool ever won the trophy of Europa League but it was before 2009. At that time, this competition was named "UEFA-Cup". It is the reason I don't include Liverpool on my post above.


Anyway, don't be arrogant, I'm not an amateur in this matter. Football is my life, I've played football and know it since many years ago. Sorry if there is a misperception, I think that's normal. Please calm down!

Manchester United stand tall enough in the Europa League, they might have failed but they always come out in triumph colors. I'm mute when it involves Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur for the Europa League title. Who's taking the title home? These sides are competitive and knowing how they've managed to hit big winnings in the Europa League. It pulled some concerning facts and we know they're able to match the necessary winnings. This season wouldn't be easy for the Red Devils because they're definitely going to face fierce oppositions that are formidable for a winning also. Beating the odds, Manchester United have been favorite to win the Europa League.

[fadhilz123]

The English teams are playing under a burden of pressure. Man Utd and Spurs falling in the semis to weaker opposition would make the PL look weak. Ange and Ruben must get their teams to win.

The Europa League semi-finals this season have not started because Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur are still in the semi-finals to make a better victory. You don't need to doubt the teams from the Premier League because they are only under pressure when playing in the Premier League, but in the Europa League both are still equally strong and have advanced to the semi-finals in such good condition.

Europa League isn't as tough as the Premier League and that's why you see that United and Tottenham are finding it difficult to cope in EPL because there are too many clubs getting stronger everyday. However, in UEL the competition isn't that tough and fierce compared to EPL which makes me believe that, we would see one of the EPL teams in the finals.

Wait you seriously think in a final Tottenham stand a chance against Manchester United?
Tottenham has their class of players and same as Manchester United but in a game like that United will be victor. To be honest if United make it to the final I feel like they would be the winner. They might have some mid players and are inconsistent but don't forget they are still a top team, more dangerous against big teams and on matches for trophy. Remember how they won a domestic trophy(Fa cup) last season against Manchester City.

Both team got much to lose, I wish them the very best but there can only be one winner.

Tottenham and Manchester United are considered the favorites to qualify for the final. However, the performance of both these teams is very inconsistent. It is not certain whether Manchester United will win against Athletic Bilbao. Because Bilbao is a very strong team. Bilbao has the ability to win against United.

On the other hand, we consider Bodo/Glimt to be weak. Tottenham is a renowned team. However, this team is in very bad form this season. On the other hand, Bodo's performance is surprising everyone. None of us think that Bodo will be able to qualify for the semi-finals. I would say that if Tottenham cannot win the first leg match against Bodo, then the team will not be able to qualify for the final.

Manchester United and Tottenham have a high chance of qualifying for the final. However, I would not be surprised if Athletic Bilbao and Bodo qualify for the final. These two teams have the ability to win against United and Tottenham.

[Hanadawa]

However, interestingly the remaining teams in the Europa League semifinals this season all have their own motivations to win the Europa League. For Tottenham, this is the only chance for them to end the season and pin them so they can play in the Champions League next season as well as Man United. For Bodø of course he wants to make a surprise and make history as an underdog team to win the Europa League trophy and for Athletic they want to win the trophy at home.. lol. Because this season the Europa League final will be held at the San Mames stadium.

All teams have the motivation to become UEL champions. This is a tier-2 European competition. Only one level below the UCL. Of course this is one of the most prestigious trophies in Europe. And the champion will get a ticket to the UCL next season. Tottenham and Manchester United will not miss this opportunity because they are unlikely to get UCL tickets through the Premier League. Bodo/Glimt managed to advance to the semifinals and that is an extraordinary achievement. Maybe this is an opportunity they only get once in a lifetime. Of course they want to take advantage of the opportunity to break through to the final and become champions. And for Athletic Bilbao who are already in the UCL zone in La Liga, getting a trophy this season and at their own stadium is certainly a very historic moment for them.

Tottenham predicted be the first team take a place in the final since playing against a weaker team that's why they are in the top position as winners, we can see in the screenshot above well, Athletic Bilbao the 2nd favorite team we don't know why Man United in 3rd position even though the percentage almost same. I am one of those who believe that the teams from EPL will go to the final, I'm not underestimating Bilbao, it's just that Man United are worth relying on because of their struggle and experience.

Talking about individual abilities the fact is Manchester United players are more prominent than Tottenham we can check it in the score and assist list, Bruno Fernandes scored 5 goals so far and in the next 2 matches he can score more goals yeah there is potential to be top scorer, just need 2 goals to take over.

In terms of motivation, of course, the four teams that are currently in the Europa League semifinals have the same ambition, but in terms of percentage, we also have to look at the overall strength of all teams.
Now Bodo/Glimt will face Tottenham in the semifinals, these two teams actually do not have good overall strength, but even so, one of them will certainly be in the Europa League final this season, which makes everything possible because in the final round in football nothing is impossible to happen.

And in the other semifinal round, Manchester United will face Bilbao, these two teams have good strength in the Europa League competition this season, making the second semifinal match much fiercer and I personally think that one of Bilbao or Man United who qualifies for the final will be able to win the title this season.

Because all four teams have reached the semi-finals, of course, they will give their best to be able to qualify for the final match. Bodo/Glimt were previously not favored to be able to qualify for the semi-finals, but they did well. Against Tottenham is also a challenge for them. It certainly won't be easy, and Tottenham will definitely be more favored.
It wouldn't be good enough if the Europa League final were two teams representing the Premier League.

I know this fact, Manchester United has a tough opponent in their semis against Athletic Bilbao who I think might qualify to the final but if United can find a way to become the victor against Bilbao, then I consider them likely as the victor already.

On the other hand, we consider Bodo/Glimt to be weak. Tottenham is a renowned team. However, this team is in very bad form this season. On the other hand, Bodo's performance is surprising everyone.

I would say that if Tottenham cannot win the first leg match against Bodo, then the team will not be able to qualify for the final.

Bodo/Glimt can still hurt Tottenham in the end even if they are the underdog but while Tottenham are inconsistent they are still having much quality players than Glimt and can still find a way of winning, maybe getting a draw in one and another a win.

Against mid teams they can get a win but suffer ironically against top teams in the EPL especially in recent seasons but I won't want to write them off now, although they can still fall off unfortunately.

Tottenham's level is much higher, even though they are so low in the Premier League table, they can beat opponents of this level. For Tottenham, the Europa League is also a chance to get a place in the Champions League, and they are one step away from the final, and of the remaining opponents, Bodo/Glimt is probably the easiest, at least if they had to play Manchester United, or Athletic Bilbao, it would be much more difficult. Tottenham should be in the final, and then it's a matter of luck.
