This game against rangers is another game that will be a good test for Amorin and his boys to see if they are feet to be in Europe as they have been struggling since the beginning of the season United has to be on their best this evening because rangers is not a team that United can easily win just like that because rangers is one team that is doing well in the Scottish premier League and they also have some quality players in their team

United has not been convincing in the group stages of this tournament as they have been drawing with on about one or two win so United has to be convincing today with a home win to put confidence in the team and even to their fans as they lost their last league game against Brighton

You are absolutely right because winning the match would going to bring more confidence to them. Actually Rangers is not a team to be underestimated, because as is stance now Manchester united performance is not really impressive at all. However, I think they really need to win Rangers is this game, although sometimes they normally perform well in other leagues, more especially FA Cup and this Europe competitions. So hopefully I think they might likely win Rangers today.

Rangers will face the match with better capital and motivation than Manchester United, they have so far been more consistent than Manchester United who are still experience inconsistency in their matches, but even so I think the quality of the players and also the mentality of the two teams will be the main factor in the match, so indeed Manchester United cannot be underestimated in the match, With the condition of both teams, it is very likely that the match will be a tight match, but I actually see that Manchester United may be able to win over Rangers even with difficult, because after all, the Europa League is the only more realistic way at the moment for them to be able to win the trophy and also qualified for the Champions League next season.

The player factor from both teams can indeed be a major difference in playing today's match, but I still have a little doubt that Manchester United will still use goalkeeper Onana in today's match because if Manchester United really needs a win at home in today's match, of course the players who will be used as the main players must be really solid and Amorim must have made that choice from now on. Because it would be quite embarrassing for Amorim if they had to lose again in their home game for a ridiculous reason like when they hosted Brighton in the EPL.

Yesterday, Besiktas delivered a very thumping blow to Atletico Bilbao and I'd be a liar if I say I saw that coming. Judging from their stats and standings, the Spanish club had more advantage and even were the favorites of bookies to win the game with an odd of 2.05 as against Besiktas 3.78.
This win enabled the Turkish side get a fighting chance as they where moved forward to 18th spot as against the 23rd place they were and although they occupy this spot temporarily depending on the outcome of the games that would be played today, it's indeed a big leap.

Football can be really funny and full of surprises because the team you'd think are the weakest can be the one that will pack the biggest bite when you meet them and I'm sure Atletico Bilbao felt they could collect all the points so they can drop Lazio to second place while they move to first but their performance wasn't on point.

Manchester United will meet Rangers and they play at Old Trafford which is Manchester United home ground, this will be very interesting match because Rangers themselves are also right below Manchester United and are not team that can be underestimated, Rangers have 3 win, 2 draw and 1 defeat and that means Rangers could make Manchester United have hard time later.
Looking at the Rangers match schedule shows they have winning streak and have fairly sharp attack line, I predict that this match will only end in draw, if Manchester United manages to win maybe only with 1 goal difference advantage.

It is more fun to follow this phase in the new format honestly. Yeah technically this isn't a revolution but in this view of standings, things look more exciting. Top 8 qualifies directly, 16-24th teams play an extra round and the rest say goodbye to the tournament...

The points are still very close to each other while we are closing in on the end of league phase.

Galatasaray and Beşiktaş played their games early. One of them got a solid result while the others make their fans disappointed.

Now the rest of the games all are going to be played today. I think I will watch the Fenerbahçe - Lyon game. I'm curious about what Mourinho will do in the Europa League. I think they can actually win this game if they play decently.

Galatasaray was very bad last night, they drew with D.Kiev who only scored 1 goal in the league.
There is no explanation for this draw. We cannot maintain the score in the matches we are ahead.
Muslera needs to retire now, all the shots the teams have taken this season have been goals.
Gabriel Sara's absence is evident in the team.
Icardi must return urgently.

Galatasaray is currently struggling, as we all know because they give up goals so easily and miss opportunities to win games. However, Icardi cannot return as soon as some of us had hoped because he has an ACL injury and will likely be absent for the rest of the season. The manager, Okan, must address the team's issues as soon as possible for their next match, or else they risk losing more important games they may need to win.

Furthermore, Icardi's job in the team is as a striker, not as a defender or goalkeeper, to save the goals conceded. If Muslera concedes unnecessary goals, management should bring in another goalkeeper to rescue them. I don't see a problem with Galatasaray's attackers because they can score a lot of goals and lead their opponents, but they do have problems with their defense and goalkeeper, who appears to be unable to save the club from unnecessary goals.

One thing we most no is that this two teams plays in different leagues and the most difficult league in the world is where Manchester United is and them not being inform in there league those not mean they can't play very well with other teams in other league.
Manchester United has not been in a good form this season they have suffered some lose which includes there recent 3-1 home defeat to Brighton, however Manchester United remains unbeaten in the Europa League, when it comes to Europe league they always play very well and put in there Best.
Rangers have shown improvement with three consecutive Win however, they face challenges with key player absences due to injuries and ineligibility, including Mohamed Diomande's suspension.
When you check this two clubs head to head you will discover that Manchester United has always dominated them in there last 4 head to head, Manchester United won 3 and draw 1 with them, all without Manchester United conceding a goal. Rangers have struggled on English soil, with only one win in eight away matches against English teams in European competitions, so I believe Manchester United is in a good position to win them.

Congratulations to Beşiktaş, I didn't expect them to get such a result. They played really well tonight and they totally deserved this win.
A.Bilbao was one of the favorites for this cup but they were bad tonight and Beşiktaş was very good.
It was a very important 3 points for Beşiktaş. I hope they make it to the play-offs and continue.

It looks like Atletic Bilbao's performance is coming down because I don't even understand the team performance from their last 4 matches, Bestikas is a good team but I don't think they are better than Bilbao, Bilbao has a good player like the Williams brothers and other quality players that can help the team but in their last 4 matches they find it difficult to win a match, I think the coach need to put more effort to his team because he will soon lose his job because I don't expect a big team like Bilbao will let the team fall from top four position in the league table.

I think Bilbao just lost their first match in the Europa League this season as they are in 2 positions in the league table, I think they can do better when they qualify for the next round of the league, Bilbao needs to put more effort into his job because in La Liga Bilbao is not doing well and as they got defeated in their last 4 matches and if they did not take care it will affect them in Europa league also.

Mauro Icardi's Future at Galatasaray in Jeopardy After Weekend Revelry

I am pretty sure no Galatasray fan cares about Icardi partying. I mean it's clear that the dude is injured, and when he was partying he wasn't breakdancing on the floor, he is just sitting on some lounge with his new girlfriend and that's fine. Injured players can walk, this isn't normal life injury, sure if he was an accountant then he could go back to his job already, but he is a striker, and that means he needs to be on the field and running, well run as much as he can, not like he was running like Osimhen all game even when he was healthy, but run enough, and dribble, and considering he is injured, someone who can walk, doesn't mean they can go out and play a match, those are different things.

So he has all the right to party as much as he wants during this period, he isn't really missing anything, both him and fans have to wait for him to get better, and meanwhile, what he does isn't really that important. Nobody expects him to return this season anyways, he is out for the season, OR at best case, could come back on few games before the season ends, so expecting him to just sit at home watch tv all day makes no sense.

When a player is injured, he can enjoy himself to the fullest to see if that will make him recover fast. There is time for everything. If you are fit, you will always be on the field with you team mates. Everyone has the freedom to do whatever they like when they're free. I don't think that Icardi can do anything on the pitch when he is not fully fit.

The result of Beşiktaş is not only a large one but coming after a game against Athletic Bilbao which is a quite hard and annoying opponent. Bilbao is the second team in the ranking in UEFA Europa League this season while Beşiktaş is now classed 18th thanks to this victory! .

Besiktas found a bright spot under Ole, it seems that Ole has a good impact on this team, at first I thought I was not sure Besiktas would beat Bilbao, Bilbao's betting odds were very superior and here Besiktas really performed well enough so that there was not much room for Bilbao players to win at home, and here it looks like Williams has no room to help Bilbao. Williams could not get past Besiktas' defenders at all and I think Besiktas under Ole's guidance will continue to develop because Ole is a genius coach in my opinion and with this victory Besiktas has a full chance to advance to the next phase in the Europa League.
And this big victory also led me to my betting victory, I chose well and I got it.

Ole debut match is really run well and before Ole arrived Besiktas has a problem to their attack and defense but it didn't take long for Ole to improved Besiktas performance and i have seen the arrival of Ole is give positive vibes for Beskitas it proven this team can able to win over Bilbao with huge scores and actually Bilbao is not a weak team because before this match Bilbao had unbeated record so this is hard match for Besiktas especially their performance is not impressive in Europa League which makes people predict Besiktas will be beated by Bilbao but surprisingly they can win even with big scores

The strategy carried out by the Bilbao coach did not go well and vice versa beşiktaş was able to take advantage of the opportunity to get a victory. Initially I estimated Bilbao to win the match because they became one of the favorites in the European League but instead lost the momentum to get points in the match. This defeat did not have an impact on Bilbao because they were still in a pretty comfortable position and certainly qualified for the next round. If you look at the condition of the standings, Beşikta will definitely qualify for the next round but must go through the playoff path but in the last match they must lock the victory first.

The result was unexpected. Winning by one or two goals would have been normal but four goals to one is an embarrassment to Bilbao, a club that has been strong in this Europa League this season. This is a big win for the Turkish side because they needed these three points to rekindle the hope of making it to the knockout stage. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer deserves to receive some level of accolade by winning his first game with Beşiktaş. He has really shown that he has learned a lot from his absence from a managerial position for some time now. Hoping that he will replicate the same tactical soundness in the Turkish League.

I don't understand how Dynamo Kyiv scored three goals in this match. Galatasaray is a strong team. In the past matches we have seen much better performances from Galatasaray's defenders. But in this match against Dynamo, Galatasaray's defenders and goalkeeper performed atrociously.

The interesting thing is that Dynamo players had a total of 6 shots in this match. Three of them were on target. And Dynamo Kyiv managed to score all three goals. Galatasaray's overall performance was good. If the defenders and goalkeepers had performed a little better, Galatasaray would have earned the full 3 points in this match. It is now completely uncertain for Galatasaray to be in the top 8 of the points table.

Agreed, the way they played in this match has ruined my bet thus I lost Sad

,^{luckily my price for this bet was not too high}. Galatasaray is my favorite team in Turkish Super Lig and they are performing over there quite well and my hope was that team will demonstrate its mastery in this specific match.

As to Dynamo Kyiv, I think they hey have nice luck for their play with Galatasaray, nothing else.

Indeed the unexpected did happened to Bilbao. This is why I'm mostly of the opinion that the Europa isn't a game that should have some exact patterns and expectations around it because it may turn out at the end of the day that it will not happen that way as the results may blow your kind and in some cases come off as disappointments. Bilbao was a better team in this game even Statistically but it felt like they didn't prioritise this game and so their performance couldn't bring home some productivity but then again they are sure to make it to the next round of the Europa.

I think this is not only happening in the Europa League because in big UCL matches there is also uncertainty and unexpected surprises, in football things like this are very common and we can't always predict correctly, historically Bilbao is indeed better but Besiktas also can't be underestimated they need points to qualify for the next round while Bilbao's position is still quite safe even though they have to experience this 1 defeat.
For tonight's match I am curious about Lazio's appearance whether he will maintain his winning streak I also bet on Lazio's victory and there are 2 other clubs that I bet on.

The unexpected happened, Athletic Billabo who were favored and expected to be able to sweep all matches in the UEFA Europa League preliminary round actually lost badly to Besiktas with a score of 4-1. This was the first defeat for Athletic Billbao, in this match even though they got quite a lot of opportunities, Bilbao's attackers were unable to make the most of them.

A fourth club in La Liga lost big to Beskitas, it's unbelievable but it seems clubs from La Liga all have big problems in Europe from Champions League to Europa League in this season. Yesterday, Barcelona nearly lost to Benfica before surprisingly coming back in a goal productive match. In this match today, Athletic Bilbao failed to do a comeback and they ended as a big loss.

Athletic Bilbao have good growth in recent seasons but it's like they have yet gotten enough experience in Europe. This defeat possibly has a factor of lack of experience but with quality they shown in La Liga, they would have done it better. They can lose the match, but can avoid a big defeat if they have proper approach. Perhaps they began this match with no idea that they can lose it, or lose big, so their approach is sort of too careless.
