Don't forget that Jose Mourinho and As Roma won the Europa Conference League Competition against Feyenoord the season before last during the finals. It was a one goal to nil win and Jose Mourinho made the Romans and them fans proud. They fell off from the Champions League but we'll still be seeing Jose Mourinho and his side go ahead into the next round ahead of Feyenoord. Romelu Lukaku is Injured? When did that happen? I'll go have a look at it. What I know is that he was carded for three games because of the reckless tackle he made during on of them Scudetto games.
AC Milan are also big European sides, They should make good use of the home chance they have against Rennes and score a lot of goals. I trust them regardless, after the poor run in the Champions League, they don't want to do same in the Europa League Competition.
As Roma won the Europa Conference League not last season but 2 seasons ago, last season the champion was Westham United meeting Fiorentina in the final.
Right from the Italian representatives in the Europa League, AC Milan and AS Roma are candidates for the championship.
But if for the overall strong candidates to win this season, it's Liverpool and Bayern Leverkusen.
They are challengers and we can't underestimate them, you are right AS Roma won the title 2 seasons ago, not last season. You are right about the strongest candidates being Liverpool and Leverkusen, but even so I am not underestimating the 2 clubs we are talking about here, because they also have a chance of getting the title. As long as the season isn't over and the matches haven't been played, then anyone still has a chance. The only difference is who is more likely based on their current form.
Leverkusen is in impressive form in the Bundesliga. They are the only team without defeats in the Bundesliga so it can be said that their performance this season is really very different from the previous season. Initially I thought Liverpool would be the strongest candidate to win, but if you look back at Leverkusen's performance, maybe the two of them will meet in the Final. Because if you compare the performance of the two teams in the League, Liverpool as second place in the EPL is certainly much more superior.
In the European League this season, the two teams will probably have a fiercer match, considering that both of them are the strongest teams in their respective domestic leagues. Apart from that, it cannot be denied that in terms of strength I still have more confidence in Liverpool in the Europa League this season even though Leverkusen can also be a quite serious challenger in terms of winning the Europa League trophy this season because Leverkusen continues to show quite good performance in the Bundesliga.
2 clubs that have caught our attention now in the Europa League, especially Leverkusen who have managed to show great performance here as well as in the domestic league. Surely we will hope that they will meet in the final. But it's a long way to the final, and we'll never know whether they'll go down or not.
Focusing on Leverkusen, I hope they can maintain their current form, especially in the Bundesliga, I hope they can stop the dominance of Bayern Munich this season, although it is difficult but seeing their current performance they are quite promising.
