In the recent meetings of Barcelona and Manchester united, Barcelona always take the convincing lead. But this time around I am not sure Barcelona will be able to maintain their record because Erik ten Hag is coming with high pressure to destabilise Barcelona.
Any team can win because they are both doing wellin their local leagues but in Europe I would trust Ten ahead of Xavi.
In additional if barcelona won't able to use two main players against MU. Sergio busquets and dembele face injuries at the same time. that was making barcelona at disadvantage compared with MU. Sabitzer has been performing so briliant in his debut. Ten hag has a mission to kicking barcelona's ass. I will be going all in MU in the upcoming match. I just wanna see how good MU is when it will be facing barcelona again. This is a very risky decision but i do agree to lose my money if MU will be losing in the first match against barcelona.
Xavi is also believes its squads will able to defeat MU easily. Xavi wanna try to defend its record against manchester united. Xavi will not let a good record against manchester united will be gone.
Although the forthcoming match pits Barcelona versus Manchester United, thoughts are divided as to who will come out on top. Both sides include world-class athletes, and Barcelona is still formidable despite without Sergio Busquets and Dembele. Xavi has been outspoken in his confidence that Barcelona can still win, despite Manchester United's recent success.

Man United supporters, on the other hand, believe their team can win thanks to home field advantage. The combination of Sabitzer on the pitch and Ten Hag's tactical expertise gives Manchester United excellent odds of victory.

Irrespective of the final score, this will be a thrilling contest. There's no telling who will win until the last whistle blows since both sides are competitive. When two of the best clubs in the world meet, the result is certain to be exciting. Everyone will be on the edge of their seats for this showdown, and they can only hope for the best.

Sometimes history in football repeats itself because irrespective of the players and the coaches presently in the team, the rivalry remains the same; Taking Barcelona and Manchester United case into consideration, all the teams are after the record they have in the past therefore both teams will like to win the match and bring victory to their team because they are all hoping to be Europa league champions this season.
That's right, both Barcelona and Manchester United have such an extraordinary history on the European competition scene and that makes the two clubs very close to the prestige that makes the match run so exciting and thrilling. But so far the two teams in the regular league have also had very good performances and can be said to be balanced from the depth of the existing squad. We'll see whose strategy wins this match later, whether Xavi or Erik ten hag.
This qualifier will be one of the most important international experiences for Ten Hag and Xavi.  I think this match should have been in the final.  Not being in the final will allow us to watch 2 matches in a nice and final mood.  In my opinion, the matches will be balanced, but the winner will be determined by the performances that night.  Both teams have the power to beat each other.

What's worse is that they competed in the early playoffs from the knockout round, so this match is of course very unfortunate. Because even if they didn't meet in the final, at least they played in the quarter-finals or semifinals and it's still worth it for them.
Because these two teams are currently in their best form this season, so they really deserve to go further. But yes, with them playing in this round then one of them must stop in this round and cannot go any further.

The squad depth that Barcelona and Manchester United have is almost the same, both teams are performing well in the domestic league with continuous wins.
several pillar players in the Ten Hag squad experienced injury problems. and it haunts the Ten Hags today. We can see how United's strength is when several of its flagship players are absent. if they have good quality substitutes it will be a fortune for United.
but if they do badly it will be Barcelona's fortune. There is still some time before United's game against Barcelona. I still hope both of them play to their best abilities.

This is a big problem. If a squad player gets injured before an important match, it becomes difficult for the team to maintain a stable performance. And several Manchester United players have injury problems. There are very few players on the team who consistently perform in every match. Ten Hag should be more aware of the fitness of their players. If the fitness of the players is not good then it is not possible to maintain consistency.

1 more week is left for both teams to strengthen themselves and prepare more. Both parties have several internal weaknesses. I think the coach's match strategy will play a more important role than the performance of the team's players in this match.

you are right Barcelona and Arsenal are the most likely to win the Europa League title. However, Roma, Union Berlin and Ajax teams should not be neglected. These teams are consistently performing well in their respective leagues. But Barcelona and Arsenal have the strongest squads. Now it is natural that the team that plays consistently well will win the title.
Barcelona's next obstacle in winning the title is Manchester United. It will be very difficult for Barcelona to win against United. Barcelona's performance against Manchester United will tell whether the team deserves to win the title.
For Barcelona vs United, we have discussed it many times. but for other team candidates such as Roma, Union Berlin, Ajax, it is true that this cannot be ignored. in particular, Rome and Ajax. these two teams are playing quite well, but their performance in the last few weeks has not been very impressive. I quite like Roma's game this time, usually Mourinho always uses defensive tactics. but at least, Rome will also provide resistance, especially when they are against Red Bull, which is statistically superior to Matthias Jaissle's squad. Likewise for Ajax, I don't really know this team. but at least, Ajax is tougher than Union Berlin.
But by the way, however, Arsenal is the most ideal candidate in the race for the championship trophy in this competition. Arteta's troop squad is more established in terms of play, performance, teamwork and mentality. I hope Arsenal can win the Europa League trophy.

Roma and Union Berlin are also likely to be crowned Europa League champions. The performance of Ajax team is not very strong this season. However, Union Berlin and Roma are playing very well this season. Mourinho has been able to strengthen his team. On the other hand, I don't find Ajax's team strong this season as they have sold several key players in their squad. And now their performance is somewhat erratic. It has become difficult for Ajax to perform well in the Eredivisie league as well. So I don't consider this team a favorite in the Europa League.

Arsenal and Barcelona will undoubtedly be the frontrunners for the Europa League title. But last season we saw Frankfurt beat all the favorites to win the title. So the less favored team has the chance to win the title.

Ten Hag and Xavi both want to win with a war of tactics between the two. A heavy task is on their shoulders to bring their team further in the Europa League. This match will be very exciting because the quality of the two's play is very good, I will not bet on any team in this match because the result of the match is very difficult to predict.

This game will be a tough road for both teams, and I think whoever the winner is, deserve to be a champion candidate. Both are great teams that are currently in good form, so it will be difficult to predict who will be the winner. The expertise of the coach will be decisive. So that anyone who can concoct a precise strategy (with the condition of the injury problem that is currently hitting his team), then he will have more chances to win the game.

The first thing is that Arsenal is a very stable team right now. And they are not dependent on any particular player. Arsenal coach Mikel Arteta has managed to create an extraordinary match strategy. As a result, every player in the team is able to perform well from his position, because of good performance as a team, Arsenal has been able to maintain consistency.
This is why the absence of an important player like Jesus is not felt in Arsenal's performance. Their performance is still stable. And this has been possible due to Arteta's excellent match strategy and the confidence of the team's players.
In this season, Arsenal have so many good factors which contribute to their success in general. They had a good preparation since the last season because their players got good experience with pressure in top four race and to maintain a position in top four. In the last season, they failed but it gave their players very valuable lessons.
It looks perfect for Arsenal because many big clubs suddenly got serious problems like Chelsea and Liverpool. They give Arsenal better chances to participate in top four and have less competitors too.
From Arsenal side, their players are performing so well and their substitution players do their jobs well to help the club getting as best results as they can when main players were suspended or injured.
I believe that Arsenal have so many converged reasons to be a winner of Premier League in this season.

Arsenal's performance last season was not good. Arteta's aim in the previous season was to try to stabilize the team and strengthen the bonds between the players in the team. Arteta succeeded. The bond between the Arsenal players is excellent. And so they can beat any strong team this season. At the same time, despite having relatively few star players in the squad, they have been consistently performing very well. They continued to dominate both the Europa League and Premier League platforms.

Only Manchester City and Arsenal are fighting for the title this season. Teams like Tottenham, Liverpool, Chelsea, and Manchester United are not in good form. This is why the fight for the title has become easier for Arsenal.

I meant we shall take a look at how important busquets for barcelona. He was also a captain of the club. Ansi fati may not be used by xavi. De jong has more potential rather than ansu fati. Raphinha will be replacing dembele's position. I shall remind you of the previous match raphinha has played by xavi as replacement for dembele.
Busquet got a serious injury which is bad for him and Barcelona too but just months ago, Barcelona fans wanted to see Busquet leaving the club. They wanted something like what happened with Pique and now they considered he is so important for the club and are missing Busquet a lot. People are so complicated and sometimes hard to understand them.

Fati is a club future and his position is safely at least in a next season. About De Jong, I believe he will leave sooner or later because Xavi did not have plan to use the player a lot. Raphinha is like over estimated and over valued on transfer market. His performance with Brazil in World Cup 2022 is not good enough to convince me and his performance for Barcelona is not outstanding too.

Quote
I think that the same strategy will be used against manchester united.
Barcelona must be careful caused by MU is also in its best performance at this moment.
Barcelona usually play with their traditional tactics, tiki-taka and some sort of different versions of tiki-taka. In general, they don't change their playing style and formation. Perhaps they will use it again in matches with Manchester United in Europa League.

One week later more UEFA Europe League playoff round will start and Barcelona potential losing Dembele against Manchester United after confirming injured against Girona last two weeks. Have bad rumor about Barcelona not only with Dembele will absent on first leg UEFA Europe League but also Sergio Busquets have chance will absent.

I don't think problem for replacing position from Sergio Busquets because there are have Gavi, Pedri and Frankie De Jong will back up position leaving by Busquets, but I don't think Ansu Fati as the best option for replacing position leaving by Dembele.

Im sure de jong will be replacing barcelona. I meant we shall take a look at how important busquets for barcelona. He was also a captain of the club. Ansi fati may not be used by xavi.

It will be very interesting for 2 teams that are developing significantly Barcelona and Man United to face each other on the gridiron next week. Statistically, if Dembele is absent, it is certainly a big loss because he is a player who plays an important role in building attacks from the wing. However, Man United must also play without Casemiro who is still on a card sanction.

Ansu Fati might be a good fit but he won't last 90 minutes.

Xavi is also believes its squads will able to defeat MU easily. Xavi wanna try to defend its record against manchester united. Xavi will not let a good record against manchester united will be gone.

I don't think so. even though Dembele and Busquet will be absent for the match, Xavi still has other player options that he can rely on in the match. IMO, most likely Xavi will change his strategy and formation. the absence of Busquets is not really a problem, the fact is that Barcelona can still rely on Fanck Kessie, paired with De Jong, to be the pivot. the reason is, currently De Jong's role is very vital for the team as a whole. Xavi could have put Lewandowski as a lone striker, or use the same formation as a 4-3-3. Rotating Gavi to become a shadow striker, Pedri remains a midfielder. but certainly, I'm pretty sure De Jong and Kassie will play a pivotal role.

Meanwhile, United are in an unenviable position. Eriksen, Mctominay, is an important central player in United's midfield. The absence of these two players will greatly affect the match later. although in truth, the Ten Hag already had options for a replacement. but we can't confirm whether United can play with high performance, it's interesting for us to wait.

this is a game we are anger to watch in  the competition. Both team are favourite to win the trophy but one team will qualify. It will be tough but Manchester United will triumph over Barcelona. Xavi squad are in good shape and eight points ahead of Real Madrid in the Spanish league. Manchester United are also premier league title contender sitting on the third place behind Manchester city in the league.  Let the best team win in this game
These two are the best teams this season and I don't think there is any need to be angry to see their meeting happen earlier in the Europa League competition, because when they have both done their best here in the Europa League. Obviously it will make the match more interesting to watch and won't be boring and this time the predictions are always not easy because the condition of these two teams is at a better level this season.

This is true that Barcelona have had several wins over Man United , but I do think that this time around it's going to be a different ball game, looking at Man United form and Changes over the years in both clubs. Barcelona had this incredible coach Guardiola and players,  Lionel, Xavi, Iniesta and more compared to what they have now, basically a lot of things has changed which could affect the result too.
Without Xavi, Iniesta and other Barcelona's veteran players, they're able to beat Manchester United. Check the match on April 11, 2019 and April 17, 2019, only both Messi and Suarez playing as the strikers, the midfielders are same like the current year. It's really wrong to say Barcelona is really different with the old one, Messi is a GOAT, but football is a team play and the current Barcelona's players are good enough.
In the recent meetings of Barcelona and Manchester united, Barcelona always take the convincing lead. But this time around I am not sure Barcelona will be able to maintain their record because Erik ten Hag is coming with high pressure to destabilise Barcelona.
Any team can win because they are both doing wellin their local leagues but in Europe I would trust Ten ahead of Xavi.

It had been a while since Manchester United and Barcelona had match, I don't think it is ideal to use their H2H to measure their capacity because the last time the two teams played, Messi was still in Barcelona and if you look down from that moment to now, lots of changes have happened since then.

Barcelona is currently managed by Xavi who knows the ways of Barcelona and has improved their form and Erik has done his own part in fabricating Manchester United in its own capacity, so the outcome of this match is really a tough one to predict but recent statistical performance may favor Barcelona little.
Statistically, both teams are playing very well in their respective leagues; Barcelona has won all their last five matches while Manchester United won four and lose one to their league leaders Arsenal which is normal; You are right that the match result will be very difficult to predict but there is a slight hope for Barcelona especially as they will be the one to start hosting Manchester United.
