Villarreal will simply use this match to catch up with Rennes in the group F table, despite the fact that goal difference will put Rennes ahead of them because Maccabi Haifa is not a good enough team to stand up to Villarreal because even Panathinaikos was better than them because they were able to win Villarreal in the first leg and draw them as well, and I am very confident they will win them in the second leg even though they will both be eliminated

Isn't the result of personal matches taken into account first of all in case of equality of points? Villarreal won the first game against Rennes and if they now win the game they have in hand they will move up to first place. Taking into account the fact that Panathinaikos and Maccabi are too far away, in the last round a draw will be enough for Villarreal to remain in first place.

The postponed Villarreal vs Maccabi Haifa match in UEFA Europa League Group F is scheduled to take place today. Maccabi Haifa are yet to win a match in the group stage. Meanwhile, Villarreal secured the next round by winning three out of four matches. Villarreal are expected to win the match against Maccabi Haifa based on their current form and strong record in the Europa League. They have been performing well in recent games and their home record is also good. On the other hand, Maccabi Haifa struggled in the competition and could not secure a win. So the hosts are likely to walk away with a narrow win. I think Villarreal can win 2-1 against Maccabi Haifa today.

Crucial match for both team although have been qualified to next round but finish on first place will make automatically to 16th round without have to face Champion League relegated teams trough playoff round. Current standings, Brighton Albion have defeat Marseille if want to secure first standing but have advantage for Gennaro Gattuso manager just need draw to finish on first standings place in Group B.

First time appearance on UEFA Europe League, Brighton Albion success qualified to next round and waiting last match result will finish on first or second place, actually finish on first or not its the best achievement for Brighton Albion adn De Zerby as manager success give positive result for Brighton Albion with 3 won of 5 matches and have chance continues for winning on last match. Seems potential with Brighton Albion will talk more on Europe League this season and I think they will lead until quarter final stage.

Brighton who are new to the Europa League have shown strength going through this competition and they’ve shown that by securing wualificaoti the Round of 32 before the last match for the group stage.

Now they’ve got to struggle to get all 3 points so as to end up top of the group and I think that’s quite possible but when you check that Marseille needs just a point then you know that Marseille would be coming into this match to frustrate Brighton and her players, so they have to be at their very best and avoid errors that would cost them the match.

Massive achievements for the club and her manager as this would be one the fans won’t forget in a hurry and they’re grateful for. This Brighton side could go a while in this competition but I don’t see them as favorites as there are better and stronger teams than them in this competition.

Brighton vs Marseille.

Of the many matches that will be presented on matchday six, one of the matches between these two teams is quite interesting for me personally. This match will be held at the American Express Community's Stadium, Brighton's home ground. These two teams will both target full points, in order to be at the top of the group to get a ticket to qualify for the next round. which means, this match should present an exciting match. However, with the condition that both teams use an offensive system pattern. for De Zerby's squad, I won't doubt it because they need to win in this match.

Indeed Brighton and Marseille match is actually going to be the toughest match on the Europa group B, the two leading team meeting each other, is obvious the match is not going to be easy on the both teams because they always have an equal performance on the league this season but however Brighton was able to win few strong team that I never imagine they would win such as there match against Manchester United they had a great performance on that match.

However they have a serious competition with Marseille because there points on there group table is almost the same but Marseille will try all there possible best to win the match so that they can enter the first position on the group but however I don't think they can be able to win Brighton.

West Ham United is an average team making the best out of their situation. I don't think they have the potential to achieve something of value in the Premier League, like the qualification for the Conference League at least. Last season they had to fear relegation for some time but could get away from it, but this season I don't see them getting into too much trouble either. It will probably be a midfield ranking for them.

The Europa League is a competition that suits West Ham United quite well. They will go into the next round and then have two legs with one being their home game and I think that's where things can become interesting.

West Ham United have been doing quite well since last season when they got a qualification to the Europa League after winning the European Conference League. They might be an average team, but they are doing very well at the moment and their performance in the league this season hasn’t been that bad. For the Europa League group stage qualification, they won’t have a problem with that and the problem lies ahead when they’ve gotten qualification to the knockout round. New teams from champions league will be joining them but if they don’t get a matchup with a big team, I feel they can still have confidence to go further in the league to at least quarter finals before they can have a very tough challenge.

Another form of luck for West Ham was avoiding tough opponents in the knockout rounds. I think David Moyes squad is showing a different performance, I think the reason is quite easy to understand, because in group A West Ham is the top team. The EPL level of play makes West Ham better, when playing in the Europa League makes their steps easier, but this ease only applies in the group phase.

It's not just West Ham who have to be alert in the next round, I think all clubs have the ambition to create their own records. Even though they don't have the status of a favorite club, West Ham presence in the knockout round is a problem for other teams, I mean they have the potential to become a dark horse team. With the difficulty of finishing in the UCL zone in the English Premier League, the only way for West Ham to appear there next season is to become champions of the Europa League this season.

This year seems different from the rest, winning becomes very necessary for these clubs. There are clubs that won't be able to stand out to compete against elite clubs that will be move to UEL this season. Though we have clubs that I believe will standout for these elite clubs, teams like Liverpool and Westham that already have sights on the title this season. We will watch the top performance from top sides and trust me when I say, there will be strong fights in matches, so we should not rush into predicting the club's that will reach key stages.

I think the europ this year will have a greater part of it's dominance from the English team, because they seem to have better form and dept amongst other competitors in the Europa league this season and we are still expecting some of them to come form the champions league aswell by the end of next week, that will further reduce the chances of other teams.

Liverpool is definitely going to outshine many others especially those from the other leagues who are not prominent in Europe if the likes of Newcastle comes form the UCL they will aswell add to the list of weat ham, Liverpool and Leverkusen which happens to be the German team who has been relentless with their efforts to winning every single game. The challenge Liverpool may be facing in the nearest future will have to be tackling these teams who have almost equal strength with them in the europa, I'm sure Liverpool has a target of winning the title by every possible means

Yes indeed, I also think it looks like Villarreal do not have any big obstacles to beat Maccabi Haifa in this match. Because after all, this mach that Villarreal playing at home and also, in their first meeting in fact Villarreal managed to defeat Maccabi Haifa with a score of 1-2. So ya, I think for this match it would be more appropriate if the final score is like 1-0 or 2-0 because after all, Villarreal should have better power at home. Considering also, Villarreal last match in this group stage will also play against Rennes and of course, thus Villarreal still has to do well to become group winners.

The same result is going to happen again in the upcoming match. Im not even feeling confidence with haifa in this match. Villareal is quite superior in all of aspects compared with maccabi haifa. You will be seeing the same result like the previous match.
Villareal is going to destroy haifa again since villareal has known so well which has become the main weakness of haifa. There's no need to pick double chance coz villareal is surely to be a winner in the next game.
We will be seeing villareal to dominate the game again like the previous one. I can't wait to see how many scores to be produced from this match. Villareal is going to win the game with 2-0 as the final score against haifa.

Yes and with all due respect Maccabi Haifa isn't in their best shape these days and even then I think it would have not been very likely for them to pose a threat to Villareal. And although it might be about prestige for them and they enjoy every international game a lot, the fact of the matter is that Haifa can't win anything and the group stage is over for them. Taking all of these factors into account I am sure that this is going to be one of the easier games for Villareal in the Europa League.

Maccabi Haifa was finished and their journey at Europa league was ended because 1 point from 4 matches makes them only able to occupy 4th place and for Villarreal actually this match will have no effect on their position in the group standings because whether if they win or lose Villarreal certainly will be qualified because their points will no longer be chased by Panathinaikos but if Villarreal want to finish at first place at the end of group stages then they have to win all of the matches remaining and today Maccabi Haifa is not hard opponent for Villarreal because i am sure Villarreal without any problem can able to overcomes Maccabi Haifa and if they can able to collect 3 points today then Villarreal final position will be determined when they fight against Rennes and if Villarreal win from Rennes then Villarreal will be occupy first place and if they lose or draw then the first place will belongs to Rennes

Now in this group, we have fight for the top spot with Villarreal is going to host Maccabi Haifa tonight, and they are going to visit France for the last game with most chances today we will have one-sided affair and this will give good confidence to them as this could be fourth win this competition, and they could be at second spot behind Rennes and last game will decide who is going to stay at the top.

No doubt today is practice match for them, but they have to go with their full strength and then in next game surely things could be more for the top rank which is not easy as Rennes is also doing good and have only one defeat against Villarreal in their group match in Spain so now can they take revenge and take top spot or Villarreal will be at the top after having both wins things are interested in last game between these two top teams.

Since the teams eliminated from the UCL and ranked third will come to the UEL, the probability of the EPL teams winning the championship may vary depending on the performance of the teams coming from the UCL. I think we all remember Arsenal being eliminated last year. This year, a similar scenario may be seen in Liverpool, but I still see Liverpool as a team that can become champions.

There are differences between Arsenal and Liverpool, Arsenal can be said to be a team that is good at domestic competitions, but they are not very good when competing in Europe, even during their heyday several decades ago, they were just ordinary in European competitions, different from Liverpool, even though they haven't been champions in the domestic league for a long time, but It is recorded that they have won the Champions League and also managed to win the European League two decades ago, so it can be said that Liverpool is better than Arsenal in European tournaments, so Liverpool has a chance of winning here, although it is not a certainty because there are many things that can thwart them but like you I'm pretty sure they can do well to lift the trophy in this tournament.

I wouldn't be able to guarantee something like that to be fair. West Ham may not look like the best team in that league that is true, and Europa has teams like Liverpool and even the ones that will come from UCL and all that, but West Ham is not a small time club neither, they are quite strong and could definitely beat other teams and win it.

It has to be something that is special, they would have to beat some stronger teams but we have seen decent teams beat bigger teams last season as well. Look at how Sevilla won it last year, you will see that they have won it by beating bigger clubs along the way, teams that everyone assumed they would lose against, so there is really nothing shocking about it, that should be quite important.

We should never underrate any club in Europa league because every club have potential power to win a match and they're still the clubs that will struggle for matches this period. I'm more specific on EPL clubs, they will do better in the Europa League and winning becomes a tough one for these clubs this season. Westham United will only become confident to face Liverpool but all this doesn't matter because I'm not even sure if they will reach significant positions this season. We have UCL clubs that will be joining the league sooner than expected.

No one underestimates any team. Average clubs can sometimes give surprises when facing big clubs, so even though West Ham may not be the favorites in the European League to win the title, Westham will still show their best to come out on top of the group and will be a challenger for the big clubs in European League.
The EPL clubs that are joining the European League are seen to be the ones that will qualify for the next round, namely Liverpool and West Ham. Brighton might be able to qualify for the next round if they are able to beat Marseille, and we will also see teams that are relegated to the European League, thereby creating competition in the European League increasingly interesting.

The sixth match at home to West Ham will provide a slight advantage for them who of course would prefer to be group winners rather than having to go through the playoff round to qualify for the round of 16, so it can be said that West Ham will qualify compared to Freiburg, especially in the away match they can beat Freiburg well especially in the sixth match later as home team.

Both teams actually have almost equal strength. But since the next match will be held in West Ham home, we assume West Ham gets the advantage because they will play in their own field and with more supporters at home. I don't say West Ham must qualify for the next round. I just believe they probably qualify because they ever defeated Freiburg in matchday 2 away and they also will play at home. However, no guarantee West Ham to qualify, it depends on how the match will be.

Quote from: Strongkored on December 05, 2023, 06:35:49 AM

West Ham's performance has indeed decreased in the English Premier League, but here they are still better and that is also what they showed last season, where European competitions had better results than local competitions.

We can exclude the factor of EPL matches. I also think it won't bring significant impact on the Europa League matches. West Ham players must have a better motivation to win the last group match of Europa League. They almost reach knock-out phase, they have a big hope to achieve it. They must realize if they go to play-off, the chance to qualify can be smaller because they will play a team eliminated from UCL.

What I mean by priority here is that when they lose then they don't have a deep disappointment about it. Regarding the main plyers they always play in every match, of course they will always do so, because after all they want to get the best.
If we compare their ambitions in the Champions League and the Europa League for example, I can see that their ambitions in the Champions League will be greater. I'm not underestimating the Europa League at all, but we can see from the list of clubs that won here are clubs that rarely won titles in the domestic league, whereas, in fact, every season there are always big clubs here.

That's right, but that doesn't only count for main players, but for all players. The Champions League will always be more prestigious and I agree that losses lead to less disappointment if they are normally used to playing in the Champions League. But I think this changes the closer they get to the final. Losing a semifinal in the Europa League is probably tough for the players as the final event in the Europa League is still an incredible experience. Of course some luck is needed because there is a difference when you play against Alkmaar in the final or against a team like Arsenal or Barcelona who both played in the Europa League.

That said, I'm not writing off the disappointment that plyers or clubs will feel when they are knocked out of a competition. I also agree that the closer they get to the final, the greater the disappointment. I think we can all agree on this, that the disappointment is even greater when a title is on the horizon.

I'd like to tell you about one club that has won the Europa League many times, Sevilla. They're struggling to break through to the Champions League in La Liga. One of the ways for them to get there is by winning the Europa League, yes even though in the Chmpions League they also struggled a lot and in the end had to return to the Europa League.

But this is another topic. The reason is that Sevilla is a pretty bad team which had some unexpected performance peaks during their last Europa League season. Under normal circumstances you would think that their Europa League journey would come to an end when they play against Manchester United. But now we are talking about the next patient. When you speak about two patients fighting against each other, most of the time the weaker patient loses. Manchester United is like garbage in the world of football, the club is not the same anymore. That is why Sevilla had a chance to go to the final. Juventus Turin was the same story with their scandals. Football was secondary. But this time I don't see Sevilla achieving anything in any of the competitions.
