Rooting for Arsenal all the way, they should be comfortable but if I know Arteta, he'll want them to keep momentum. I hear rumours of Jesus coming back finally, might be an opportunity for his to shake off some of the rust. Saka just spoke in an interview saying he'd want to play every single moment he can though Wink

Arsenal just got eliminated by Sporting. Shocking result in London honestly,didnt expect that Sporting would pass Arsenal. I think that goal from the half of the field turned things into Sportings way and gaved them a boost in the penalties. Arsenal now has to focus on Premier league.
Arsenal who are at the top of the Premier League standings can be eliminated by Sporting. The match was full of high intensity which made Arsenal have to shoot each other on penalties. The performance of the two teams until the extra round clashed strategies, at least Arsenal will focus more on the Premier League. Now the favorite club in the Europa League is Manchester United. The only Premier League representative who should be able to win a trophy this season. However, Erik Ten Hag's journey was not easy and Juventus and Roma were still the most dominant clubs as obstacles.

United, Sevilla, Juventus, Sporting, Leverkusen, Roma are all trophy candidates, IMO, only Royale and Feyenoord chances are a bit lower, but Feyenoord has a really good season (weekend will have big decision on their season against Ajax)
wanted to see Fenerbahce in next round, but Sevilla is in EL on their playground

Imagine that just last year I would pick Sevilla and Juventus easily. I wouldn't even have put Arsenal in Last 16. But now the obvious favorite here is United, and they will probably try their best to make sure they have 2 trophies.

Sevilla loves this cup we all know that but I agree Feyenoord is also to eye, but they probably want to focus on Ajax and keeping their place?

Arsenal is out, but teams in QF are promising good next round, probably more fight than in CL, where there are some teams that are already seeing their way out (Inter, Milan)

Villarreal getting eliminated by Anderlecht is biggest upset. I saw them as serious contender to win trophy, but when you lose against Anderlecht at home, about what we can talk? Very solid AZ Alkmaar performance against Lazio nad deserved win.
So, I think now we have 4 contenders - West Ham, AZ, Fiorentina and Nice without clear favorite and draw tomorrow will be very big factor.

It is worth noting that Fenerbahce's odds are getting lower and lower and they are becoming the favorite. I think the worst case scenario is that the match will go to extra time. I'm thinking of a 2-0 scoreline but I'm not sure. It's a very important match and Fenerbahçe has the squad to eliminate Seville.
Arsenal will play at home this time and they are the advantageous side.The first match ended 2-2 away, but their opponents are not an easy opponent and they know that.I think Arsenal will win this match and go through the round. A goal-scoring encounter may be waiting for us again.

But for sure that's my fantasy manager mentality.

United definitely feels like a timebomb I couldn't agree more. He has improved them all, won a trophy and now expectations are so heavy on people like Rashford.

I don't know, Liverpool holds the time bomb really and it ticked and blew over today just minutes ago.

United can't end this season badly. If they don't qualify in top 4, they weren't really expected to. They already won a trophy, and that's bought a lot of time for them. Rashford thrives on pressure, like all good talents. He'll be fine.

That said, I'm all for United losing every game possible heh.

The did very well so I lost my bet, but now I'm tempted to again bet on their loss in the next 2 games, especially with the good looking odds. Another thing I feel is that all the Europa teams might do badly in the league?

I don't know about all the teams because everyone's situation in the championship is different. But United seems like a time bomb to me - Ten Hag squeezes all the juice out of their players, including with the help of psychological pressure and his games of big boss and discipline. It may give results in a short period of time, but with such a schedule of games as United have now, failures like in the game with Liverpool will inevitably happen.

Yeah, of course, it's different. I just feel like most of these names don't really have anything with the league anymore. They won't relegate and some will fight for some Europe spots but in the end this will probably feel like their best chance to win prize money for transfers to strengthen teams while also get a ticket to UCL.

I would be wary of betting on United - look at their game schedule, almost one game every three days. It is not surprising that they failed at Liverpool and I would not be surprised if they are now in an overall functional decline.

^^I lost obviously, but I am not regretting any decisions that I made, it was a good bet and it had great odds and I lost fair and square, there is as much losing in betting as winning, if not more and this was just one of them.

Arsenal was the one that hit the hardest because I did not just put that in my parlay ticket but I had a single out bet for that one too in case I lose the parlay one to balance it out, and instead I lost both of them and that made it even worse, wish I did not wagered on that game alone, at least I would have lost just one bet, that is a regret but the parlay was not a regret because it was a magnificent one that I knew had a small chance.

Honestly, I didn't expect Fenerbahçe to lose. As a Fenerbahçe fan, I'm sorry. Although we had a lot of positions in the first half, we were not effective in front of goal. If we had been successful and skillful in the last strokes, we had a chance to break the match in the first half. The first half was a 2-0 or 3-0 game for Fenerbahce. In the second half, I can say that Jorge jesus actually gifted the match to sevilla with his decisions. The fact that Irfan can stayed in the game for 87 minutes without doing anything pulled the team backwards.

Union vs Union, interesting moment that they also played in same group in last season Europa league. Both teams aren't doing great recently, but Union Berlin looks like more solid team, it's difficult to beat them at home, so, I'm also backing them.
Betis is interesting choice, I think they have chances to eliminate MU, but I don't believe in their win today, I rather would go with their win on 2nd leg, though, odds will be significantly lover.

Unfortunately I lost all bets on my picks, even avoiding Arsenal didn't prevent me from losing Union Berlin, and now they might be worried they will also draw the 2nd leg. Roma totally surprised me  Grin

I would be wary of betting on United - look at their game schedule, almost one game every three days. It is not surprising that they failed at Liverpool and I would not be surprised if they are now in an overall functional decline.

Union Berlin - Union SG 3:3, what a game, something what I wanted to see. I even don't mind bet that I lost, such game was worth it. Disappointed about Betis. As I said, I didn't expected upset from them today, but after you lose first leg 4:1, there isn't much hope for comeback. Good game between Arsenal and Sporting, gunners didn't had any advantage today, but away draw isn't bad result for them, they're still favorites.
Feyenoord didn't managed to beat Shakhtar, despite their dominance, while Juve won just 1:0 against parked Freiburg bus. Freiburg didn't played football today, their 0.05 xG stats says a lot, but 2nd leg game is going to be tricky with minimal Juve lead.
Holy cow! The Union Berlin vs. Union SG game was so unpredictable, it's hard to imagine. The entire experience was like riding a thrill coaster. The beautiful game's capacity to surprise me at every turn never fails to amaze me. I'll admit that I didn't have high hopes for the game, but oh, was I ever proven wrong! And even though it saddens me to hear that you lost the wager, I have to say that the excitement of the game more than made up for your financial loss. Finally, I want to say that you were absolutely correct in your assessment of the match between Arsenal and Sporting; it was a tough contest, and I have no doubt that the return leg will be equally stressful. Feyenoord, meanwhile, put forth a dominant performance, but today wasn't their lucky day. Let's not overlook Juve's nail-biting victory over Freiburg, either; that was quite the defensive display, no? However, the unexpected is part of what makes sports so exciting. Lastly, I just wanted to add that your analysis of Roma's performance was spot on. They have been fantastic to witness, and I eagerly anticipate seeing if they can keep it up in the next game.

Yesterday we saw goals in all matches. We see that the matches played at 20:45 have more goals. Leverkusen and Roma won at home against weaker opponents and I think they have a big advantage for the round. As for Arsenal, it is good for them not to lose. They will be the ones to advance with their home game. Although it was away, they played a good game and we watched a pressing football.
One of the most surprising results of the day was against Union berlin. It's interesting that a team like Ajax, which eliminated a rival like Ajax, conceded 3 goals to a team from the Belgian league at home. I think they made it a bit difficult for them to qualify. A team that concedes 3 goals at home would normally have more difficulties on the road.

Union Berlin - Union SG also seemed the most interesting game for me, although I was sure that Berlin would win, the game did prove to be intriguing and unpredictable. As for Arsenal and Sporting, I think that in the return game Sporting have a chance to win, because this time they showed the same game. Roma have also been a joy to watch. I thought Sociedad could give them problems.

didn't saw this statistics, it says a lot about their play, or lack of it
after all, all results were pretty expected, bunch of unreliable teams providing reliable results, and I missed all of them, because I thought it ain't gonna happen

Betis is almost out, Sociedad is close to same score, but all other matches seem open for re-match, even Ferencvaros and Fenerbahce have their chance at home

Union berlin definitely plays a very weak team for them, Juventus too, Leverkusen too, Arsenal plays Lisbon which is not a "bad" team but Arsenal is just way too good for them, United can easily beat Betis, these are all sure thing in my mind.

I am going to do a parlay and I am pretty sure that I am going to lose them for sure, there isn't a situation where I get all of them right at the same time but I feel like that was the right thing to do, because that would in return give me something decent, definitely a great return for me. I know that it is not going to be easy and it will probably fail but the return would be big enough to make it worth it.

Arsenal.... what are you doing?

But yeah I'm with casper here. Juventus and Sevilla, stay away please. They're too busy either trying to qualify for UCL or avoid relegation. This trophy might come with prize money comparable to a few good buys but neither team will fancy their chances to go all the way.

Now Betis upset? Sounds like my kind of bet Wink

In my opinion, quite a pleasant result for Arsenal, which will solve all issues in the home game.
Surprised by the confident victory of Roma, judging by the statistics, Sociedad was completely outplayed and now their chances at home to equalize are extremely small.

I got Union Berlin on my multibet earlier on but the ticket is now lost so I'm thinking to add them again!

But more interesting is my bet on Real Betis who are 8.70 to beat United and I think this won't be a draw. Either United will be supercharged after losing horrendously, like Liverpool seemed to be after losing to Real... or United cannot recover and lose at home.

What do you guys think?

I would be wary of betting on United - look at their game schedule, almost one game every three days. It is not surprising that they failed at Liverpool and I would not be surprised if they are now in an overall functional decline.
