Will Manchester United ever make it up to the champion leagues as the no longer on the top 5 on the EPL table, the lose to asernal today in the premier league have shown the club weakness.
It is not impossible, there is still a possibility, but I think it will not be easy. Manchester United were one of the teams that sadly performed poorly. After the match they lost yesterday, we can say that they don't have much chance anymore.
It is difficult to predict what they will do next season, but their chances of finishing with a good ranking have decreased this year Smiley

I no longer see the possibility of Manchester United qualifying for the Champions League. They have played one match more than Arsenal, but are still 6 points behind. Most likely Manchester United will be sixth in the table at the end of the season.
There is no shortage of talented and star players in the United squad. Their main weakness is their match strategy, and lack of bonding among the players. If the coaches do not change, their performance will not improve next season.

i'm a liverpool fan, but i need to be aware that even if villareal appears to be a weak team they are not as weak as they appear to be, if they were a weak team they wouldn't be in the champions league and they wouldn't have gotten far in the league of champions, one thing that the champions league has:

teams even when they are weak in their country's leagues, they can be strong in the champions league

so it should not be assumed that just because villareal is weak in the league that it will also be weak in the league of champions
So I decided the Premier League club is much better now to be in the Champions League, Liverpool are a great club because they keep trying hard to win trophies.
In terms of betting, it's a lot different but it's a bit risky if the result is a draw let alone win Villareal but I don't think it will ever happen at Anfield to lose.
With this semifinal we can see who is great, but we can see again in the second leg which will be decisive.
Even I am not a Liverpool fan but I believe with Liverpool's current performance, they have a guarantee to qualify for the final match. I personally never considered Villarreal to be a weak team because even before that I said several times that Villarreal is a big team which means they are not a weak team. It's just that their lack of achievements makes them no longer seen as big, even though in the past Villarreal and Valencia in my view were big teams that really had to be watched out for. But over time, their prestige has decreased but for me they are still a big team and not a weak team. But because they are currently not the favorite team and very rarely get to this stage in the UCL, then I can say that at this moment they are a dark horse team. But that's just an expression because the truth is, Villarreal have very rarely progressed to this stage in the UCL and that doesn't mean they are weak.

For the top five positions it is still very possible to be achieved by Manchester United if they are still able to win in the next few matches, even though Manchester United are stuck by Tottenham in the fifth position of the EPL standings at this time, but if Tottenham themselves are not able to survive and win in the rest of the season, then the top five positions will be taken over by another at the end of the season, and the more likely is Manchester United.

Manchester United have been in a terrible state this season. People initially thought they will perform very well this season because they have one of the most toughest squad in the EPL with talented players. But, it turned out that they usually find it extremely hard to win consistently in their matches. However, they are currently 6 points behind Arsenal who are presently occupying the 4th position. Although, If they probably improve their performance, and avoid dropping points. They might succeed in ending the EPL in the top 4, and also secure a space in the Champion League next season.

Manchester City should be able to win Real Madrid if all things are being equal, Real Madrid team cannot do without Benzema. It is truth they have the likes of Vinicius Jnr and Modric to display some level of brilliance that could swing the game to their advantage but Vinicius is not consistent game after game and Modric can be marked out. As for Manchester City, their major worries is the injuries plaguing the team now and this might just give Real Madrid the advantage.
Define all things being Equal?

Manchester City vs Real Madrid without Benzema?

Besides, where is it written that Benzema is out or got injured and therefore won't play?
I don't know if you watch Real Madrid's matches, but Modric has been very brilliant for a 36-year-old. Are you aware that he has been involved in some of Real Madrid's recent comebacks?

But they do not have to do without Benzema? Am I missing something, I checked everywhere and he is neither injured nor booked for the game, which means that he should be able to play right? I mean the sentence "they can't do without benzema" sounds like he won't be playing but he will be playing and they can with him on the roster as we all have seen before. If they managed to beat PSG and Chelsea, then there is no way of knowing if they can beat City as well.

I do believe that City has a higher chance, I do believe that City will go to next stage, but when you have a player like Benzema on the pitch, we never know what he may do to surprise us.

All the teams that have entered the semifinals are of course strong teams and should not be underestimated but if you look at the quality of the players and the consistency of the team throughout this season Liverpool are far superior and have greater potential to beat Villarreal, although it will not be easy.
This time almost everyone will favor Liverpool against Villarreal, because everyone also sees Liverpool based on the results of the matches that Liverpool have played in each League and also in every match.
So it is very natural that Liverpool will be more favored this time than Villarreal in the upcoming match.

It is very certain that Liverpool will win Villarreal,  their is nothing to argue about it or to say that Liverpool winning maybe under probability.  The performance of Liverpool in all their matches will definitely convince one that Liverpool is capable of defeating Villarreal.  I see no team that is close to Liverpool when it comes to performance.

On paper Liverpool are indeed much better than Villareal, but it seems unreasonable to underestimate Villareal who managed to beat Bayern Munich to reach the semifinals. I think Liverpool can certainly be expected to win the game against Villareal more easily, but there is always the potential for defeat if Unai Emery's men play well during the match. I don't think Liverpool will have a hard time winning that match, but they need to anticipate the worst because Villareal are also targeting a win and qualifying for the final.

Of course I firmly believe the Real Madrid vs Manchester City match is one of the best in the semi-finals because I think it's a match that probably deserves to be in the final this season. Real Madrid were surprisingly lucky enough to beat 2 tough opponents in the round of 16 and quarter-finals, but their fight to the final will certainly be hampered by Manchester City who is also one of the best candidates at the moment. Both deserve to be in the final, but sadly only one of them will take the ticket.

Manchester City vs Real Madrid is surely going to be had most attraction from fans as currently both teams are at top in their leagues and having amazing form with some quality players but here things are going in favor of Ream Madrid because they have some amazing run of form in this competition specially as when we have results against PSG one of amazing matches in my life.
But, here Manchester City needs some good planning if they want to go through into final and want to win their maiden Champions League trophy they surely play aggressive game and try to have minimum 2 goals lead which can secure their place otherwise there is no chance for them against Real Madrid in away match for progress into final.
Manchester City should be able to win Real Madrid if all things are being equal, Real Madrid team cannot do without Benzema. It is truth they have the likes of Vinicius Jnr and Modric to display some level of brilliance that could swing the game to their advantage but Vinicius is not consistent game after game and Modric can be marked out. As for Manchester City, their major worries is the injuries plaguing the team now and this might just give Real Madrid the advantage.

Benzema has shown really good performance in the last few matches in Champions League and by now I expect the opponent of Real Madrid to understand that and guard Benzema properly.

I really think if Benzema is not let loose in that match Manchester City has a really good chance of winning. and I expect Manchester City to understand that by just properly guarding  Benzema they cannot leave the house in their defense in any other place.

Yes indeed in terms of team strength and overall game, Liverpool deserves to be favorites for this semi-final. Even though Villarreal managed to get rid of the German giants but it was not enough for them to be able to do the same again, unless they have a lot of luck and Liverpool are playing under their best form. Unfortunately, Liverpool will not do that, because they will pursue the target to become champions.

Compared to Villarreal, of course, Liverpool's squad is much better organized and stronger. They are dominating both the Premier League and the Champions League. And the performance in each of their matches is excellent. Against Villarreal, there is no doubt that Liverpool is the favorite. But don't forget, the favorite team is not always the winner. To win, Liverpool must perform well.

For the Liverpool - Villarreal game, I will be favouring Liverpool to defeat their opponent. Villarreal have done a really great job so far by eliminating very big teams like Juventus and Bayern Munich. But I started feeling like this is the end for them in the Champions League. Liverpool have performed much more consistently than Juventus and Bayern Munich so far. They are a complete different team so Villarreal might have a hard time against them. I think Liverpool would keep themselves safe by winning this game.
I also believe for Liverpool this time because they will be much more consistent in the match against Villarreal later because now Liverpool themselves will also apply a better strategy to be able to qualify for the final by winning the match this time.
But Villarreal itself will also perform better in order to get through to the final because for them against Liverpool is a very tough match and will also be very fierce.

To think that Villareal will beat Liverpool and go to next stage and then telling people do not watch football is a bit of a oxymoron. Liverpool, I mean we are talking about Liverpool here. I get that Bayern was good and somehow Villareal managed to beat them and kudos to them, but do you really believe that they could do that all over again and this time against Liverpool? I see zero chance for Villareal this time around.
It will be easy win for Liverpool, for them it is nothing different than beating any other team they have so far. This is a team that could win it all and nobody would be shocked, they could even turn things around and win FA cup and Premier league in the same season, would be very difficult but not really shocking if it happens.
Obviously you are a big Liverpool fan but I have to ask you something.
Did you watch the first match between Bayern and Villareal?
Villareal were much better than Bayern and it is a miracle that the match ended with only a minimal victory of the Spanish team.
In Germany, Bayern were better but could not do much against the great defense of the Spanish team.
Therefore, be aware that Villareal did not accidentally qualify for the semifinals, or because they was very lucky, but thanks to the excellent tactics of the game.
I agree that Liverpool is a slight favorite, but they have two very difficult games against Villareal and everything is still open.

It is ok to think that Liverpool is going to win the match but I find it really unbelievable that people are still thinking Liverpool is going to win this match without any problem.

Because we also thought the same thing when Villarreal played against Bayern Munich.
Nobody gave them a chance against Bayern Munich but they did manage to win that match and they won that match by playing good football not just buying some dumb luck.  

So, I am expecting everyone to take Villareal seriously as that is the thing which Liverpool is also going to do in the Champions League match.

Liverpool still has to face Everton tomorrow in the EPL match. Everton is a team that almost slipped into the relegation zone. Liverpool has the opportunity to rest their players in this match to be better prepared for the first leg against Villarreal.
although the Everton game is also important, I think they can handle it by playing it safe enough. Liverpool has the motivation to get 2 trophies this season. and it is very possible to achieve at this time. Hopefully, Liverpool can perform optimally.
Do you really think Klopp will let his players rest and lose the slim chance for the title? I think they will go out with the A team and play brilliantly, Villareal fought strong, their opponents underestimated them and lost but Liverpool will certainly kick them out with no problem.

I really don't think that Liverpool is going to take things easy in the English Premier League because if they win there will be just 1 point behind Manchester City just like before and they will still have a really good chance of winning the English Premier League. I really think that the Liverpool squad is fit enough to play both the matches in English Premier League and Champions League.
so if not any special events occur I think Liverpool is going to play a consistent game in both matches.

Though we all know Liverpool are the favorite team to win the game, cause of their recent form, even at that Villarreal shouldn't be underestimated. I think Liverpool should be more conscious in this game cause it won't be a easy game for them  villarreal playing the semifinal of the champions is a shock to everyone, it wasn't expected. So I think they need to apply there best in this game.
Obviously Liverpool are aware of this because they also see who they will be fighting in this match to get to the final, so Liverpool also don't want to be careless or underestimate their opponent this time because in the Champions League all clubs must play very well and seriously. for the title or trophy of the Champions League this season.
