Surely Milan has realized the improvement that De Rossi has made for AS Roma and thus, then surely Milan has a good preparation also to face AS Roma in this round. Therefore, then I believe this match will be a tough match for Milan and AS Roma that is, it is not easy for them to be able to win in this phase, because of course the home team and the away team will make their best efforts to get a good result in this first leg. So yes, although this match brings together Serie A teams but still, this match will still be an interesting match because AS Roma has many surprises with De Rossi.

Roma did improved and could be considered as a challenge for AC Milan, yet the latter team is better, playing home and expected to win according to bookies.
I think both teams to score and Milan to win by one goal difference, although I wouldn't be surprised to see another result except maybe many goals.
I think most people will follow Liverpool - Atalanta game which is more challenging. Otherwise Benfica and Marseille are quite close to each other in my opinion and might be interesting to see which one will win.

Only a few minutes away we will see a match that is indeed very worth watching, although indeed the two often meet in the domestic league, but for now maybe Pioli will face a different game strategy from De Rossi, this season Roma have met twice with Milan and both were won by Milan, but when Milan beat Roma in these two games of course De Rossi has not coached Roma so the possibility of surprises may occur but I don't think it will make Milan lose the game.

So far Milan have a more capable squad than Roma so I think Milan will continue their dominance over Milan today, I quite admit that Roma have now changed for the better in the hands of De Rossi but I think it is still not enough to make Roma favourites to win the game, so far I see that Milan often have a narrow lead over Milan,  But for today I am sure if we will see Milan win with a convincing score to make them safer in the second leg, Milan will play the first leg at San Siro and of course this will provide greater motivation for them to win, my prediction, Milan will win over Roma with a score of 3-0 in the game later.

With the formation of both Bayern Leverkusen and West ham, you will understand that the heart of the football will happen in the midfield because both teams seems to choke their midfield. I will advise Moyes not to drag possession with Xavi Alonso and his boys, he should instead concentrate on some kind of tricky counter attack. But then launching a swift counter attack against Bayer Leverkusen will not be very much easy because one of the hitmen at the front of Westham forward is missing due to hip injury ie Bowen.

Not withstanding, everyone and including the bookmakers know that the men from Germany is the favourites to win, unless something miraculous happens. Xavi Alonso and his boys ought not to give up at this time.

Both teams are attacking, so the match could be entertaining, but Atalanta's defense is better this season and Gaperini will be careful not to concede, although it will be difficult against Liverpool. It is difficult to consider any other outcome other than a Liverpool victory. In match Bayer - West Ham, I’m not so sure that Bayer will win, West Ham are in very good shape now, I think that they will score against Bayer, maybe there will be a draw, but in the return match at home they can beat Bayer, I still can’t believe that they will be able to the whole season without defeat.

We know Roma under De Rossi command showed us with improvement performance in Serie-A, of course this is not an opponent to be underestimated for Milan. It seems that a 1-goal win is not enough to ensure Milan can qualify for the next round. Milan must be able to win the match and keep a clean sheet in this match so in the 2nd leg, Milan can play more relaxed to maintain their lead and success to go to the next round.

You'll Never Walk Alone. I think each of us will always sing that song.
Every touch of the LFC logo by our players which is displayed in the tunnel leading to the field will have a positive impact on the expected results in each match.
Anfield is still a stadium that can make things difficult for opponents. I believe in Endo and his friends in the match against Atalanta so that the second leg will be easier for Liverpool.

The European League will not be ignored and the Premier League is still equally prioritized. I really believe in Liverpool being able to qualify for this tournament and being able to win the Premier League in one season as Jurgen Klopp's last season.

The last time Liverpool play against Atalanta was a defeat at Anfield, but recently, Liverpool has transformed to a better team in the world which is the reason why I am thinking they will win against Atalanta tonight.

Atalanta lost their last two matches while Liverpool drew their last match against Manchester United in their last Premier League match.

Another interesting match will the match between Leverkusen and West Ham United. It will a match to watch out because West Ham will do their best to see if they can get a win at home, while Leverkusen will also fight for victory.

I don't think the match between AC Milan vs AS Roma is very interesting because we often watch this match in Serie A while we rarely see the match between Liverpool vs Atalanta and the last time we watched this match was in 2020, based on match history Liverpool beat Atalanta in the first leg 5-0 then in the second leg Atalanta beat Liverpool 2-0 well, today's match cannot be predicted even though we know Liverpool are very favored but who knows, there might be a surprise from Atalanta in this match.

Milan and Liverpool are both favorites to win their respective matches. I somewhat agree with the existing probability because after all Milan and Liverpool have performed quite well in their last few matches. Atalanta and Roma are certainly dangerous and have the potential to score goals and trouble Milan and Liverpool's defense, but I tend to hope that Milan and Liverpool can win this first leg.

Between these two matches, I tend to want to watch the Atalanta vs Liverpool match. For me, this is a tight match between two different domestic leagues, while Roma vs Milan is a classic match that is commonplace in Serie A even though the match atmosphere is different.

Your reasons are clear and it is because the match between AC Milan and AS Roma will be more competitive and interesting to watch than the match between Liverpool and Atalanta. It is very clear and obvious that Liverpool will have the advantage in that match and will confidently win the match whereas the other two Italian Teams match will be hard to decide. I don’t know who the odds is focusing on and given the higher odd, but no matter the team that has the higher odds, it is not a guarantee that the team will be the one to prevail against the other one.

It will be extremely stupid for Atalanta to play openly against Liverpool. Atalanta commits suicide in the Europa League by going all-out offensive against Liverpool and this must be prevented. Atalanta must play passively and wait for a golden opportunity to arise. This is one possible strategy that the club could implement.
I'm concerned about Liverpool's attacking strength. It's deadly and quick. Atalanta has no reason to play offensively against Liverpool. Gesperini must not believe his squad is superior to Liverpool, as they are deciding to do stupid things like this.
Atalanta can be destroyed by Liverpool if it continues to play a full attack against them. The Reds has very good players who can counterattack quickly. Atalanta may decide to always play defensively against Liverpool. This is Atalanta's chance to prevent Liverpool from winning.

Hoping Liverpool get a comfortable win tonight so we can concentrate on the Premier League. I’m not overly happy about being in the Europa League so it has to take a back seat to our Premier League title fight.

For a team that has won the Champions League 6 times and been in 3 of the last 6 finals, it’s tough to get excited about the Europa League.

So hopefully a comfortable win tonight so we can rest players in the 2nd leg.

Which team have you decided to bet on in this match? This is one of the most important matches of the day. And I would say this match will be the most competitive match of the day. Bookih are naturally considering Milan as favorites in this match. Because overall performance of Milan team is better than Roma. And Milan's squad is also stronger than Roma's. But I would probably bet on a draw in this match.

There is no doubt that Milan are stronger than Roma in Serie A. But I think Roma will fight hard to do well in the Europa League. The main target of this team now is to do well in the Europa League. Moreover, under the new coach De Rossi, Roma's overall performance is now very good. The match is Milan's home match. Everyone is considering Milan as the favorite considering the home match. But I guess De Rossi will make his own match strategy to draw this match.

Liverpool vs Atalanta could indeed be an exciting match today, but I prefer the match between the two teams from Italy, namely AC Milan vs AS Roma. Because for me the two teams will have a much more equal level of competition than the Liverpool vs Atalanta competition, which in general will definitely be far superior to Liverpool. But it's all about each person's taste because personally I prefer to see the AC Milan vs AS Roma match for the reasons I have said.

As far as I can remember, I'm not saying that Roma will win this match, but they have a chance to do so. we can assume, speculate based on assumptions and even statistics and analysis. we know that AC Milan is superior to AS Roma. It's just that the match hasn't started yet, so we can't know for sure which team won the match in the first leg. although at the same time, bookmakers favor AC Milan.
Talking about Milan, I know the tactics and system used by Stefano Pioli. and I think De Rossi also really understands it. Therefore, the new AS Roma coach must prepare tactics and strategies. If AS Roma is not carried away by Milan's style of play, then Roma can move with the system implemented by De Rossi. but if it were the other way around, it would be difficult for Roma to beat their opponents. btw, AS Roma doesn't just focus on defense. however, De Rossi uses an offensive system, so this match should be interesting because both teams have different characters in the hands of their respective coaches.

What you need to remember is that De Rossi is not Jose Mourinho, so AS Roma's style and game have also changed. If you believe Milan won, I'm more confident after this match was held. because it is more certain, rather than speculating. Well, as I said in the previous post. to confirm which team wins in this match, let's wait and enjoy.

I am sure that Liverpool and Leverkusen will meet in the final, we will see how in this first leg match whether Leverkusen is able to beat West Ham because in the previous match against Qarabag they were overwhelmed and had difficulty winning, I hope Leverkusen is able to ward off the supporters' doubts about the quality They are outside the domestic league, this European league is very important. Getting a title at UEL will also make Leverkusen better known to everyone. I hope they are able to overcome West Ham and for Liverpool it seems they will have no trouble against Atalanta.

Regarding As Roma and Ac Milan, of course this is a difficult match because they often meet in domestic league matches and maybe the game will be different in this important league, UEL, it will definitely be full of surprises and both of them want to win and qualify for the next round, I too I can't guess who will qualify but De Rossi's team seems to be able to give a surprise against Milan later with a narrow score and Milan have to be careful with that, I will still wait for the final meeting. Leverkusen and Liverpool will be a great match, both of them will meet in the final. between xabi alonso and klopp.  

All the home teams seem to have an advantage today, but I don't think they will all win. At least one of the away teams will surprise. I wonder which one it will be, Marseille might have a chance in Portugal. They can get a result as an apology to the fans after consecutive defeats.
I'm sure West Ham will also want to end Leverkusen's streak. One thing is for sure, whoever beats Leverkusen will be a big story and will make the headlines. Every team wants to end such a long unbeaten streak. Leverkusen better not fall behind in this match, because this time they might not be able to turn the game around.

It's very difficult to decide what match to watch because they play at the same time. To be honest, I like the English league more than the Italian league, although I still watch both. But tonight I think the AC Milan vs AS Roma match is the match most worth watching. Both teams are of the same level. Even though AS Roma is ranked 5th and AC Milan is ranked 2nd, I think the Europa League will provide a different atmosphere. Liverpool and Leverkusen will be able to beat their opponents. Benfica vs Marseille is quite interesting because both teams are also at the same level but I think AC Milan vs AS Roma is much more interesting to watch.
