Topic: ⚽UEFA Conference League Discussion Thread -- 2022/23 | Round of 16 - page 24. (Read 8516 times)

There's more passion for football than we could imagine this season, there are people that loves and watched football, taking it to the higher ground does matter to them. Football predictions becomes easier when you know the available teams to bet on, and there's one thing that keeps ringing in my head each time I'm planning on betting. The odds are significant and we should always ensure we grabbed the necessary scores for our winning. Fenerbahçe came prepared and delivered an excellent results, the coach and their supporters was proud of the scores, their opponent w as not worthy to face them.

This is the reason I call it " Lottery League" because you really never know what type of games you will watch and today it was just like that.

First , we have Betis who basically forgot how to shot because all they did was to cross from left to right and from right to left thinking that at some point someone , somehow will do something and score a goal and Zagreb is a very experienced team in Europe competitions and they took advantage of that , had a clean penalty and won the game.

Second , I can say we have Gent who had a ton of chances to score but somehow they didn't and Haifa had a very lucky win in my opinion.

Ajax - Bodo ...can't say much as this game was something out of movies scripts 

In last place , I would say we had A LOT of red cards for first phase and this might create opportunities for the other teams who didn't took a red card.

Ajax move to end the season by winning the UEFA Conference League trophy seems to be facing a difficult fate, currently they are 2-0 behind Bodo/Glimt. I don't expect them to experience another setback, and if they fail in this play-off round, I think Ajax management will have to completely overhaul their squad next season. The match is approaching the end of the normal minutes, and I think Ajax will find it difficult to turn things around or achieve a draw. Failing to capitalize on the opportunity to win at home, it looks like they would be better off bringing back Ten Hag to the team to help them shake off their title drought this season.

Tell me that you don't know much about Dinamo Zagreb without telling me that you don't know much about Dinamo Zagreb.  

Unfortunately, this Dinamo is nowhere as good as in previous years and the fact that they even play in Conference League shows you that as its the first time in many years that they ended up in the 3rd tier of European football. Majorify of the best players left last summer and replacements are nowhere as good as the previous players were. Add on that the fact that there is internal power struggle within the club and you get what we have now - weakest Dinamo in the last ~20 years.

On the other hand Betis is performing good in Primera and everything expect their win would be a big surprise while Dinamo chance is if Betis players eventually underestimate them and Petkovic decided to show up for this game.

Real Betis will host Dinamo Zagreb at home.I can say that it is an easy opponent for Betis.Dinamo Zagreb has weakened a little bit as a team after sending Livakovic away, but they have been doing well in recent weeks and they looked good in the friendlies.Betis, under Pellegrini, will want to achieve something and that is why they can focus on the Conference league.I think they will win against their opponent.
Olympiakos will host Ferencvaros at home and Olympiakos, who are not doing well in the league and have lost their superiority, will want to recover.Olympiakos need to beat and beat their opponents to at least advance in the conference league.Ferencvaros will have a tough match against them but I think Olympiakos will be the winners.

Lottery League is back!

Honestly this is the phase where we will get real football from this competition and my picks for today are : Royal , Betis and Haifa to win. Total odds ~12.

Many think that Betis will beat Zagreb today, but I think that both clubs have equal chances... Zagreb is a strong club and plays well in away matches... I won't try to predict who will win here... I will just add to my multi bet that both teams will score...

Ajax have started to recover in the league, but they won't want to end the season without a trophy, so they might focus on the conference league.Their opponents Bodo-Glimt have been out of form in recent weeks and didn't perform well in the friendlies.Ajax have the home advantage and I expect a win.
For Frankfurt, a difficult match awaits them.Their opponent is Union Saint, the in-form and championship candidate team of the Belgian league, and it may be difficult for Frankfurt to even get a draw from this away match.I expect Union Saint, who is the leader in the league and is obsessed with being champion this season, to win this match at home.In the away match, they will rotate some players and go for a draw.

Hey guys, I'm noticing this thread is almost silent for 3 months, such a big shame the related threads in Gambling that are alive are trashy with people who you know aren't even betting?

I'm supporting my La Liga guys here, it's super dangerous because apart from Real, all the Spanish teams have been notorious in dropping points, from Barca to Sociedad to Atleti, but I will support Real Betis to win progress this round in Conference.

Also decided to try Corners market for the first time in my life lol

$10 into over $150

I also barely watched Conference league group stage, but now more interesting things will begin. Ok, not now, in February actually. What do you think about Aston Villa chances? For me they're looking like main contenders and Emery knows well how to win UEFA Cups. Ajax also can be considered, they're starting to play good football after being disgraceful in first months of season. Betis name also can be mentioned.

Nordsjaelland getting eliminated, despite having results like 7:1 win vs Ludogorets and 6:1 vs Fenerbahche looks crazy, but they weren't consistent enough in whole group stage.

Real Betis wgo finished 3rd in their Europa League group.

That was exactly what happened. Great job by the Turkish side! Fenerbahce made me worried first as the 1st goal came quite late in the 1st half and 1-0 was the score of that half also. Because Fenerbahce needed a win by as many goals as possible to get ahead of Ludogorets even in the scenario in which Ludogorets beat their opponent also.

A huge win was going to be probably enough for Fenerbahce to take the lead and finish the group there which was what really happened later.

Fenerbahce should have already been the leader in this group due to a big quality difference. But I'm contented with their success by the final matches of the stage anyway. 

who is the spanish representative in the europa conference league this season, if there is no spanish representative, this season's champion candidates are eintracht frankurt (germany), fiorentina (italy) and aston villa (england).
another candidate lile(france) and fenerbache(turky)

So Group Stages are over, admittedly I didn't watch a single game over the last two Matchdays here, but the playoff formats bring in some interesting potential matchups.

Strong Turkish sides have advanced as expected, if with some struggle. But unlike Europa where I feel there are some very strong favourites early on, I'm struggling to identify winners. I don't trust Brighton, despite bookies leaning with them. Last year's Frankfurt aren't nearly showing up, and could still lose the playoffs.

Ajax, funnily enough, probably proceed to Last 16 after dropping out of UCL and appear to be finally shrugging off the shitshow they've been staging all season. Survive the playoff and they might just be strong enough to win this. No odds yet on my book -- but I'd place a tidy few satoshis on them winning Conference.

Fenerbahce won the game, even though it was a game against a very weak team, without a doubt they were the weakest team in this group and that team failed to win in any of the 6 games in this group stage, but the most incredible thing was the fact that Fenerbahce managed to score 4 goals in this game and didn't concede any goals and with this incredible victory Fenerbahce moved to the top of the table, but to be honest I don't expect much from Fenerbahce in the next phase, in this group for example I didn't see great teams and Even so, Fenerbahce had an average performance, especially knowing that in the game before this they had a very humiliating defeat, Fenerbahce will probably be eliminated early in the next phase

---

well, the Besikitas game against Lugano ended, it was a very turbulent ending with 2 red cards, a red card went to the Lugano player and another red card went to the Besikitas player, this was a game without any importance, but Besikitas came from 4 consecutive defeats in the games of this group stage and in the last 5 games of this group stage they did not achieve any victory, so a victory in today's game would help to clean up Besikitas' image a little, in the 36th minute the besikitas benefited from an own goal and with that besikitas went on to win the game, the 1 half ended with besikitas' victory and in the 2 half the opponent also failed to score any goal and besikitas managed to score and then scored the second goal and won the game.

Fenerbahce beat Spartak Trnava 4-0 tonight and dominated the game from start to finish. There was an interesting statistic in the group: Nordsjælland scored 6 goals against us in the previous match. In their second match in the group they scored 7 goals against Ludogorets. But today they finished 3rd in the group and said goodbye to the tournament. Football is a great game with surprising results. That's why I love this game, we think we have some strong predictions before the games, but every game can have different results. This creates excitement and that's the passion of football.

After 2 painful defeat in group stage Fenerbahçe win against their rival with 4-0 score. With this score they finished their group in leader position. Thank you so much for this winning Fenerbahçe so you can continue on european confederence cup.

On the other hand now its time to our other represantative Beşiktaş to make our face smiling.

Good luck to Fenerbahce on their match against Trnava now! Because they really need to show a solid performance tonight. They need to win this match by as many goal gap as possible. Because right now the head-to-head with Ludogorets is equal so their goal differences are going to be taken into account right after that.

Right now Ludogorets' goal difference is one higher than Fenerbahce. However I believe their job is much more difficult than Fenerbahce now.

Nordsjaelland beat Ludogorets by 7-0 before. I don't know whether Ludogorets can manage to win this team now. On the other hand it is a very easy match for Fenerbahce now.

Today our 2 representatives Fenerbahce and Besiktas will play their last matches in their groups. Besiktas lost their chances to the cup, but Fenerbahce still has a chance. I hope both teams will end the night with a win, at least Fenerbahce must do it.

Dinamo is indeed a favorite vs Balkanni, but since I am watching them week after week in Croatian league, I simply can't put any money on them, no matter the opponent. Especially not the one that clearly dominated them in the first game, like tonight's opponent did.
On top of that, for Dinamo even a draw is enough so they don't really have to go for a win.

Indeed! along with Europa League but more random than it for sure

The fight for the first place in most groups is Intense apart from PAOK, Victoria Plzen and most likely Aston Villa and Brugge, the other teams have to pick the first place.
Lille for example should win vs Ki since Bratislava will most likely win against Olimpija. Dinamo Zagreb is way more favourite to win comparing to Balkani. Fiorentina double odds are quite good in my opinion.

Both teams to score between Fiorentina and Ferencvaros is safer idea. For PAOK they guaranteed the first place so they might not play seriously, so under 3.5 goals might be logical too.
