The issue is that Liverpool doesn't care about this game. Everyone who follows Klopp and some of his interviews knows how hard he is complaining about the tight schedule and that the worst would be if the football associations keep expanding it on all fronts. The UEFA for the clubs and the FIFA as they are doing it for the international teams. The schedule is exploding for the players. If Klopp now has a chance to give some players a break, I am pretty sure he doesn't care about what others think and will take the opportunity and allow some players to either play less or rest for the full game.

Felt like they knew that they would end second anyway, and seemed like Rennes was a team they felt like they couldn't pass, if they only won then they would have been tied but they didn't do that for some reason, I have no idea why they did something like that.

I understand that it may not feel like it's an important thing, they could finish second and still go up, and yes they are going to face a harder opponent for sure but at least they will be doing fine, that should be the key. They knew they would go up no matter what, they already guaranteed it, they are feeling like they could play the bench players to make sure that other players are rested for the league. After all it doesn't matter if you go there once, you need to make it consistent via the league results too.

It's very true that the confidence of players have a lot to do with how well they will perform in any match because if they don't have the winning mindset and their confidence isn't in the best form, they will definitely under perform probably because they will feel pressured to play and wouldn't be stable playing.

West ham and Freiburg are both average team with average performance so far, and this applies both in their domestic league and here in the Europa buy I think west ham looks more like the favourite because they are from an English side of which is considered that they are in a more competitive league than the french league which happens to be the domestic league of Freiburg, never the less I'm sure both team will not find it easy as they have both performed well so far I'm the Europa and they can both be considered not weak buy the home team may be at more advantage in this game.

Yeah indeed, Liverpool have a good chance, but that doesn't mean no team can thwart them. Although ya, I also recognize that Liverpool is the best team and has a very good chance also this season to be able to win the Europa League trophy . But ya, I believe in certain matches at least it is still possible for Liverpool to get a deadlock and then fail . Because ya, we will not really know what will happen later but indeed, for now I also agree that Liverpool have a very big chance to get a good achievement this season.

As a diehard Liverpool fan, I've always been proud of our club's European successes. Our six UCL crowns demonstrate our performance. Liverpool does outperform Arsenal in European competitions. In their past achievements, the Reds' steadiness and winning mindset stand out. Dont forget the current situation. Arsenal has qualified for the Champions League, while we are in Europa League. This is an intriguing change in dynamics, but Liverpool's powers are unaffected. Im sure Liverpool will play well in the Europa League. Our team is strong, and Klopp can help us make a difference. Liverpool is slowly recovering, and I cant wait to see us win again.

Villarreal was already qualified so, for them they dont have so much importance that game against Maccabi, for Macabi and Panathinaikos yes this have some wieght because they fight for that third spot to go at least into Conference league. And they play each other in the last round.

Have some teams relegated in UEFA Champion League will participant in Europe League trough play off round face team finish on second place group stage, one champion league team Feyenoord have automatically will participants on Europe League after finishing on 3rd standings although have one match left they can't finish on 2nd place and drop to bottom position. Some group of Champion League still need until last match to get place on third standing or get chance to qualify.

Some of Champion League teams has chance to play in Europe League is Manchester United, they have less opportunity for qualifying next round and many fans expected with United will play in Europe League  .

Liverpool is of a better choice of wining the EUFA Europa cup this season, their performance has been stable in their recent games both in the premier league and the Europa cup competition, and I don't see any team capable of stopping their title race in Europe this season. Arsenal too is also doing well and terms of performance currently they are a bit ahead of Liverpool, but I kind of think that as the league progresses Liverpool will be ahead of the Arsenal team in the league.

Of a truth Liverpool is really performing well on every of there league this season but however I doubt if Liverpool is better than Arsenal because right from last season Arsenal has not lose form they maintain the first position last season almost to the end of the season before there mistake cost them to miss the opportunity of wining the premier League and by then Liverpool was still very far from meeting them on the premier League table, and however Arsenal was able to come back to this season with the same performance and if you check there wining statistics they are far better than Liverpool, perhaps if Liverpool had become the first position on the premier table then I would have agreed that they are better than Arsenal, so however is very obvious that irrespective of how good in performance Liverpool may have been but Arsenal is far better than them so long as this season premier league is concerned.

I still think Liverpool's performance is better than Arsenal's. If you follow the English Premier League game then you will see that Liverpool are doing great there although Arsenal are one step ahead of Liverpool in the points table but still I would say Liverpool is playing better than Arsenal. If we consider this season's European League, Liverpool is the most favorite team in this league. I'm not looking down on the other teams but given the performance of the other teams Liverpool will definitely be ahead in this tournament and it won't be a surprise if Liverpool win the Europa League title. Compared to last season, Liverpool seem to be a more consistent team this season and they are performing consistently in the English Premier League and Europa League.

For me too, the Villarreal vs Maccabi Haifa match ended anticlimactic because in that match both teams had to settle for a draw with a score of 0-0. Indeed, this draw did not affect Villarreal's position in 2nd place in the group standings, but for me this was a little disappointing because the match was completely controlled by Villarreal but they couldn't score a single goal, and made my bet lose.

In the next match, Villarreal vs Rannes will definitely be fierce, because the winner of this match will win the position of group winner. I think both teams will use all their energy in this match because they are aware of avoiding strong teams in the round of 16. they must be able to get first position in the group, and Villarreal's opportunity to become first position is still wide open.

Group stages matches are always easy because we can easily identify the club's that are easy to win and the ones that doesn't sit good to win. Group F becomes easy for Rennes and Villarreal, watching both team topping and dropped the other two average clubs. This is the sentiment of football called levels, Rennes and Villarreal outsmarted their opponents and now they sits to qualify for next round, with time they will also face team of their own very caliber, then you watch if they can easily win or they will struggle.

This result is quite unfortunate and really this result is beyond many people's expectations. I think that Villarreal will win easily against Maccabi Haifa because if you look at the strength of the team, of course Villarreal is much better, especially since they are playing at their own home with enough motivation to be able to win. qualified for the round of 16 directly, but the performance of the Villarreal players was really very bad in this match.
In the next match, Villarreal will visit Rennes, of course Villarreal's chances of winning are very small.
Villarreal have failed to take advantage of good opportunities in their 5th match.

Arsenal and Liverpool has been very impressive since the start of the season both in the English domestic as well as in the their respective European competition and I have no doubt that the two English teams are gonna have a good campaign in the UEFA Champions League and the UEFA Champions League competitions. That being said, i think Liverpool stands a better chance of winning the Europa League trophy than Arsenal stands to win the Champions League title and that's because Liverpool in my own opinion has been one of the strongest teams so far in the Europa League this season as well as one of bookmakers
favourites to win the competition while Arsenal doesn't fall in the top three of the teams have high probability of winning the European Cup this season according to bookmakers.West Ham surprisingly has been one if the best teams in the UEFA Europa League competition this season as their 0:1 win at Serbian club Backa Topola ensured their place in the knockout stages of the competition. Their last game of the group stage is a home game against German club Freiburg which is definitely gonna be a very difficult game for the two sides who care currently on the same number of 12 group stage points and I think that David Moyes' side are gonna win that game to seal their place as the winners of the group A.

For some reason, they are very bad at turning every opportunity into a goal, and that is a loss for Villareal who have the opportunity to equal points with Rennes, and in the sixth match, they will face very strong pressure because they face a team that only needs a draw to qualify from the group phase, and Rennes may play more cautiously and more defensively to maintain their chances of qualifying well because implementing an attacking strategy will open up gaps that can be exploited by their opponents later, and I am quite doubtful that Villareal will win this sixth match so that they don't need to have a playoff game to play in the round of 16.

They don't have to win when they already qualified for the next round, this also applicable to other teams that still have upcoming matches. In this moment, it's better to bet on underdog team or draw because something unexpected can happen.

My suggestion is to make a bet on Group C's match because all of them need to play as best as they can, if not even Real Betis which currently in top position can fall to third position.

This season both teams are showing consistent performance and they are playing some matches very well. Liverpool made several mistakes last season so they had to play in the UEFA Europa League. But this season Liverpool recovered very quickly and it has been proven that they are one of the contenders for the title in the Premier League. So I think both of them are capable of appearing competitive.

But if we talk about the chance of winning, I think Liverpool in the UEFA European League has a very big chance of becoming champion. As you have said, Liverpool is one of the best teams in the world with a series of EPL and Champions League titles that they have won. Meanwhile, I think Arsenal will have many challenges to lift the Champions League trophy because of course they are at the top level in Europe.

Yes, they could not take advantage of their opportunity to get 3 points in a match that they actually deserved to win. I think they were just unlucky this time, because if you look at the game they had several chances, and even their opponents could not develop the game and could only survive throughout the match.
Fighting for 1 ticket to the round of 16 directly between Rennes and Villarreal will be a very interesting match. In the first meeting Villarreal managed to beat Rennes with a thin score of 1-0, I think Rennes wants to avenge their previous defeat, although actually a draw is enough for them.

This match is very important for both the teams. Both teams have won 3 out of 5 matches. They are on the points table with equal points. Either way they have to win the next match. Players from both teams will fight hard for victory. I have also seen quite consistent performances from West and Freiburg players in the last few matches. When the players are confident it is easier to win the match. This match is likely to be very competitive. It is very difficult to predict which team will win. For this reason, I will not bet on this match.

I also think that the match between West Ham vs Freiburg will be quite fierce next week because it is not just about which team is the host. But it is also about which team will be the champion in group A because these two teams are certain to qualify for the next round so they will only try to become champions in that group. Moreover, currently the two teams also have the same number of points after the five matches they have played in the Europa League group.
