I think Juventus can still save the season. In the competition they have also put up a good series and they will probably just get European football. The road to the CL next season seems the easiest way to win the EL. They have a favorable draw, and have certainly not drawn unfavorably in recent matches. A semi-final between Juventus and Manchester United is the most likely semi-final in this half of the schedule. But how are the balance of power between these 2 teams at the moment? They have played against each other so little that I can't even remember meeting. Juventus seems a bit stronger at the moment, United still has too many weak moments in between, such as the 7-0 defeat against Liverpool.
Casemiro is a key player for Manchester United and I think the reason for Manchester United lost the game against Newcastle was Casemiro, however, they should learn to have a player to replace any player they lose and Casemiro is one of them. But according to what we saw from Sevilla in the recent matches they had I don't think if the absence of Casemiro will change anything.
You can't replace any player you have at all times, sometimes the player is so good that nobody could be as good to replace them. For example Mbappe is at PSG, if he is injured, can you really replace him? Of course not and they are having that trouble with Neymar all the time.Casemiro is so good at what he does that when he is out, there isn't a player that can replace him, and any player that has the quality to make sure you don't feel when Casemiro is gone, will not accept being his bench, because his replacement that is worthy, would also be worthy to start in another club anyway. What can they do, get Rice and put him on bench? Of course not, so you just have to accept when he is gone, they are a bit worse.
Manchester United team is likely to win. The biggest reason for this is that the match will probably be at United's ground. However, the Sevilla team also has the ability to defeat Manchester United. Hope the match will be a great fight.
I become confused after see your statement
I have much more confidence in Manchester United in this regard, they have been much more consistent since enter the middle of the season, the performances, the mentality of the players have all been well prepared by Erik ten Hag
Old Trafford will witness the hard work of the new Man United coach Erik ten Hag, especially for competitions outside the EPL
Basically this match has two legs so the match will be played at Manchester United and also at Sevilla, but if you conclude Manchester United will win just because they are playing at home. For me that's not something surprising, because what will get better is to win in all the legs which means Manchester United has the chance to win at home and away as well.
Also, on paper Manchester United seems clear that it will be projected to win and qualify. So, whatever the circumstances and conditions that will occur when the match starts, I personally still believe that Manchester United will definitely win.
Sporting cannot be underestimated, they proved they can be a strong team and can qualify until the round of 16 by beating Arsenal, and when Juventus will face Sporting, I think they have to try their best at the start so they can score the most points and dominate the game. , in order to minimize unexpected attacks from opponents, when I last watched a sporting match, their players were really great and they deserved to advance to the next round.
And Pessotto emphasized that Sporting is not a team to be trifled with. Having just eliminated Arsenal in the round of 16, Sporting is said to be a team that has a young, talented squad.

Interesting, I want to see how Sporting is doing their away match at Juventus headquarters. whether they will show a high-intensity game like the one against Arsenal. or, their pace will be stopped by Juventus. because, after all we can not rule out Juventus. however, that does not mean we also underestimate Sporting Lisbon.
I guess, these two teams have probabilities. it's just that, the chance that Juventus has is quite large when compared to Sporting Lisbon. moreover, in the first leg of the match will be played at the Allianz Stadium, Juventus headquarters. plus, we can say that Juventus' current performance is heading in a better direction. well, looks like this fight will be quite interesting. but for sure, there are still 5 days ahead for the two coaches to prepare their respective teams. and we will soon see these two teams compete, let's wait and enjoy.
Juventus must have watched the match between Sporting Lisbon and Arsenal, which resulted in Arsenal's elimination from the Europa League. They did not waste their counter-attacks against Arsenal and scored as soon as they had the opportunity.
Seeing from how sporting performance against Arsenal, Juventus must be careful enough in facing this club. Although Sporting is not as popular as other clubs in UEFA Europe League, in fact, they are strong enough so far. So, I think that Juventus must be more serious about facing Sporting. Moreover, Sporting has strong defense and they are also able to optimize even a small chance to make a goal.So, this will be still a very attractive match to wait.Leverkusen have been doing an incredible work for so many weeks. Xabi Alonso effect is really true now. 
It must be good for his manager career as well because this is like his most serious manager experience with a big team. So far he has done a great work in the Bundesliga first of all. The team are near a spot for qualifying for a tournament in the standings now. They are really impressive in the Europa League on one hand too.
While they are in a great shape I think they have what it takes to eliminate Royale Union SG in this stage as well. The Europa League title is their only realistic way to make it to the Champions League now. They should be doing their best here.
Leverkusen have consistent performance after arriving Xabi Alonso and he was success give one place in Europe League after get finished on third position standing in Champion League group stage. In Bundesliga Bayern Leverkusen standing slowly up to top standing position when first time Alonso arrived almost dropped to relegation zone. It must be good for his manager career as well because this is like his most serious manager experience with a big team. So far he has done a great work in the Bundesliga first of all. The team are near a spot for qualifying for a tournament in the standings now. They are really impressive in the Europa League on one hand too.While they are in a great shape I think they have what it takes to eliminate Royale Union SG in this stage as well. The Europa League title is their only realistic way to make it to the Champions League now. They should be doing their best here.
In Europe League, Leverkusen success eliminated strong Ligue 1 team AS Monaco on playoff round and Ferencvárosi on 16th round, seems not difficult with Royale Union SG for defeating by Leverkusen and has chance for Alonso with first time career as manager lead to semifinal in Europe League.
I would really like Xabi Alonso to reach the Europa League final, it seems to me that he does things well, and Leverkusen is a team that I have always considered particularly strong, here there is a belief that the strongest is the Manchester United, I am not a believer in this, for me there is Juve before Manchester now, if Leverjkusen manages to win the Europa League it would be a great achievement for the team and especially for Xabi Alonso, it would be something great and again, although I am a fan of Juve.
But I feel like that is not going to happen, and yet I saw Lisbon beating Arsenal, the team that is leading premier league right now, and then we are seeing them playing against Juventus as well, so it makes me confused, normally I would say Juventus would win, but after beating Arsenal to get here, maybe Lisbon is not an easy team to beat neither. It is going to be a hard day for betting without a doubt.
Sporting still as underdog status in this competition although they were successfully to beat Arsenal on round of 16 but mostly people will considers Juventus as the favourite for this match and in my opinion there is a very clear difference between Arsenal and Juventus that Juventus is the team with defensive style and it's not easy to break their defense so the outcomes of this match probably will be different Sporting actually is the team with attacking style but when they met strong team they will change their strategy and starting to play with defensive style and against Juventus too probably their strategy will not so different such as against Arsenal especially first leg will be held at Juventus home and i am sure Sporting will aiming draw result but this is just my assumption and it could missed depend on squad conditions between these teams later

Old Trafford will witness the hard work of the new Man United coach Erik ten Hag, especially for competitions outside the EPL
Erik Ten Hag also has the opportunity to lead Manchester United to win the Europa League this season if he mobilizes the players to perform better and focus on the Europa League on a larger scale, because Manchester United does not have greater hopes of winning the Premier League this season. This is because it is very far behind from the top of the standings now. So the only hope that can be achieved by Erik Ten Hag and Manchester United is to win the Europa League so that his achievements can be seen more this season.
Somehow I'm not entirely sure Manchester United can easily qualify for the next round when they meet Sevilla in the quarter-finals. I don't expect Sevilla to be taken for granted even if their form is not good in La Liga. We have to put Sevilla as worthy team in the quarter-finals because of their good history in the competition, but that doesn't guarantee Sevilla will be better either.I tried to be neutral about the first leg match even though in general Manchester United are the favourites. But in any case, Sevilla is team that is not as weak as it seems in the Europa League, I hope so.
Sevilla are not consistent not even with the newly signed coaches
This season has been really been hell and tough for them
They could not take the points back home why do you think they will have so much power against Manchester United

We still have about a week left for the games and I am still not certain about most of the matchups. People keep talking about United vs Sevilla game because we have seen Sevilla win this cup so many times that's why they are not certain even if on their bad year, they may end up winning it possibly and that could be a thing.
But I feel like that is not going to happen, and yet I saw Lisbon beating Arsenal, the team that is leading premier league right now, and then we are seeing them playing against Juventus as well, so it makes me confused, normally I would say Juventus would win, but after beating Arsenal to get here, maybe Lisbon is not an easy team to beat neither. It is going to be a hard day for betting without a doubt.
So far, the topic of discussion has always been about Manchester United against Sevilla because it was a very exciting match between a team that is currently in a renaissance this season and also with a team that has the most trophies in the European league. Of course everyone doesn't want to miss that game later. Talking about Sporting, I also feel the same way, even I, who often makes bets, will definitely be doubted against Juventus later. But what is certain is that I will not be careless in betting and always choose betting options that are quite safe in the match later. But I feel like that is not going to happen, and yet I saw Lisbon beating Arsenal, the team that is leading premier league right now, and then we are seeing them playing against Juventus as well, so it makes me confused, normally I would say Juventus would win, but after beating Arsenal to get here, maybe Lisbon is not an easy team to beat neither. It is going to be a hard day for betting without a doubt.
If you look at and predict from the statistical table, MU is indeed superior to Sevilla and I think MU will be a rather complicated opponent for Sevilla because the Red Devils are in a very good state of performance at the moment which allows them to beat Sevilla in the upcoming match.
it looks like the Sevilla coach will use a defensive strategy because they know that the red devils are very fierce and need a very strong defense in Seville's defense.
I am surely that Manchester United are stronger than Sevilla and have better form too. However, in knock out matches, is it always automated win for a stronger team? Especially in football, we can have surprise in any match from underdog team. Sevilla are one of most dangerous underdogs in Europa League if you ask me.it looks like the Sevilla coach will use a defensive strategy because they know that the red devils are very fierce and need a very strong defense in Seville's defense.
For Sevilla, which will be held next week, now there are some big hopes, especially as several midfielders like Casemiro and Eriksen are now able to train and will most likely be available in the midfield for Manchester United when they host Sevilla.
The first leg could have hit them right away, especially since this is a home match, so they will definitely maximize this for victory.
Eriksen is not too important for Sevilla but Casemiro is. He came to Old Trafford and fixed many holes in their midfield and provided good defensive support for their defenders as well as shown that he can contribute good things for their attacking system from goals to passes to change their mode from defensive to attacking.The first leg could have hit them right away, especially since this is a home match, so they will definitely maximize this for victory.
A return of Casemiro will be not a favorite news for Sevilla. In addition, Casemiro had many years in La Liga so he understood well enough about Sevilla.
Casemiro is a key player for Manchester United and I think the reason for Manchester United lost the game against Newcastle was Casemiro, however, they should learn to have a player to replace any player they lose and Casemiro is one of them. But according to what we saw from Sevilla in the recent matches they had I don't think if the absence of Casemiro will change anything.
Hey makishart, little note, you can make the graphic a tiny little bit bigger 
I know sometimes it is annoying if the whole screen is full of it, but a little bit bigger is fine I guess.
I just try to make sure my picture will not be annoying to anyone. I know sometimes it is annoying if the whole screen is full of it, but a little bit bigger is fine I guess.Yes the difference between Sevilla and Manchester United is too big, I agree. But they purely look at the standings in the table of their domestic leagues and that's it. Although I wouldn't say it is way too big. Manchester is the obvious favorite here for good reasons and the relative difference to a team like Feyenoord, for example, is simply explained by the fact that Sevilla plays against the favorite.
The statistic will never lie. that's im thinking about that since some people in the past were favoring sevilla caused by it has been winning europa league trophy for the six times. I don't mind them but just try to tell if MU is far superior here compared with sevilla. Sevilla's strategy is clear to me I think. Their first game is an away game, so keep a clean sheet for as long as possible and keep a low difference between goals scored and goals conceded. In a good case scenario not more than -1 goals after the game. In a best case scenario achieve a tie in Manchester and everything above would be a miracle anyway. But the idea is then to put up an amazing fight in front of their own people at home. The bad thing would be if they concede 3+ goals and have to play a game at home that is almost not worth playing.
The problem is, will sevilla be able to do that? Ten Hag didn't want to miss the opportunity to play at home, so MU will be fully offensive. Getting a draw is so difficult to be achieved by sevilla in the upcoming match. Ten hag may give another sanction to the club if MU will get bad result against sevilla at old trafford. If you look at and predict from the statistical table, MU is indeed superior to Sevilla and I think MU will be a rather complicated opponent for Sevilla because the Red Devils are in a very good state of performance at the moment which allows them to beat Sevilla in the upcoming match.

Sevilla didn't have a lot of choices. Sevilla must have won against MU no matter what kind of strategy that its coach will use. MU is also coming with full strength against sevilla as casemiro will be fully playing against sevilla. Sevilla's director has even known how strong manchester united after MU able to defeat two spanish clubs in a row without any problems. That makes sense if anyone was putting their choice into the MU as the most potential club to win the trophy this season. it looks like the Sevilla coach will use a defensive strategy because they know that the red devils are very fierce and need a very strong defense in Seville's defense.
Juventus are going to have a much more difficult matchup in this round this time. Sporting have eliminated the biggest title contender in the tournament which were Arsenal.
This would surely give some momentum to Sporting in the Europa League. However I still don't trust them more than Juventus now. Because Juventus are technically a much bigger team than them. If they don't make the mistakes Arsenal made then they should be able to eliminate Sporting. We just might not see a complete domination by Juventus in the away game especially. But in Turin I will have bigger expectations from Juventus of course.
It will be nice to see Sporting try their best against Juventus. If they make it pass this stage then they might be heading for the finals but i still don't see this coming. Juventus won't be as careless as Arsenal and winning the Europa is their easiest way to get Champions league ticket next season and i am not sure they will be willing to risk itThis would surely give some momentum to Sporting in the Europa League.

But in Turin I will have bigger expectations from Juventus of course.
Arsenal's team was very strong. Even then they could not win against Sporting. Despite having a strong and stable squad, they were defeated. The sporting team is going to face Juventus in the next match. There is no doubt that the Juventus team is strong. They are able to play consistently well. Even then I wouldn't say for sure that Juventus will win against Sporting. Because despite being favorites, Arsenal was beaten by Sporting. And Sporting players have the ability to beat Juventus too. Even if Juventus win I would say the match will be very competitive and enjoyable.

A return of Casemiro will be not a favorite news for Sevilla. In addition, Casemiro had many years in La Liga so he understood well enough about Sevilla.
Manchester United aren't in need of winning the Europa League title actually because they are already likely to qualify for the Champions League group stage. Because things are going just in a positive way in the English Premier League for them. But of course they can just increase the number of titles they get this season by one also. They are having a really good season with Erik ten Hag in the end.
On the other hand, Sevilla are the complete opposite of them. They are trying not to relegate from the La Liga before anything else. Moreover the Europa League title is their only way of joining the Champions League once again. If they can't make it then they won't be in any tournament next season. However they have a really tough job against Manchester United. I won't be surprised if their end would be similar to Betis here.
It's funny if they compete but don't need to get a trophy.On the other hand, Sevilla are the complete opposite of them. They are trying not to relegate from the La Liga before anything else.

However they have a really tough job against Manchester United. I won't be surprised if their end would be similar to Betis here.
In this case I think more than whether they qualify for the Champions League next season or not because indeed for now when they are in the quarter finals it is only a few stages away from them getting a trophy so it is clear that this is a priority especially they are the current favorites.
It's not a matter of Sevilla getting to the Champions League or Manchester United getting there but this is talking about trophies of course when there is an opportunity to get a trophy then why let it go. Manchester United are strong candidates now and they don't need to think about Sevilla which is true whether they can be in the Champions League or not the most important thing for Manchester United is how they can be better and get trophies and make their era shine again.

The statistic is too big between MU compared with sevilla. I were taking the result from MU against barcelona and betis as the best benchmark. Seeing some stars players of MU will be coming back (hopefully eriksen too) will make me become fully believe if manchester united will able to protect its goal net from the ball. Casemiro is having so many experiences against sevilla. He can give good informations to the ten haag.
Here's the prediction for the europa league.
I think that any parties are putting the performance from sevilla in la liga as the major concern right now. The chance for sevilla to go to the semi final is quite small since it will be facing manchester united.
I wonder what strategy that will be used by sevilla. Will seville keep use the same strategy?
Im thinking about leverkusen has been transforming into a very good team after xabi was taking over leverkusen as a coach.

It is going to be a hard day for betting without a doubt.
Sporting still as underdog status in this competition although they were successfully to beat Arsenal on round of 16 but mostly people will considers Juventus as the favourite for this match and in my opinion there is a very clear difference between Arsenal and Juventus that Juventus is the team with defensive style and it's not easy to break their defense so the outcomes of this match probably will be different Sporting actually is the team with attacking style but when they met strong team they will change their strategy and starting to play with defensive style and against Juventus too probably their strategy will not so different such as against Arsenal especially first leg will be held at Juventus home and i am sure Sporting will aiming draw result but this is just my assumption and it could missed depend on squad conditions between these teams later
