These are the results of the last 32 draw.
The draws were done perfectly as all the teams that come from UEFA Champions were given a perfect team to make the competition intense and more competitive.

The most attracting matchup is obviously Barcelona - Manchester United. It is like Ronaldo has Champions League brought to himself.  Grin  However it is even doutbful whether he will be staying in January. If he manages to find a favourable team for himself then I think he wouldn't think of staying. Otherwise a really lovely matchup is waiting for him. ten Hag has chosen him for the starting eleven regularly in the Europa League so far. I assume he would continue to start like that in both legs then. These teams are among the biggest candidates for the title. It is quite difficult to guess which side would make it. But I guess I will prefer Barcelona for now because of being in need of money.
I was very pleased with the outcome of the fixtures, particularly the Barcelona vs. Manchester United match; this game will eventually reduce Arsenal's workload in the competition as many people thought that either Barcelona or Manchester United would be a difficult opponent for Arsenal, but as it stands now, one of them must be eliminated and Arsenal's work will be easier.

It's a good challenge for themselves, both for Manchester and Barcelona it's a test they both should have to judge themselves, it's good news for Barcelona that the game won't be held anytime soon cause they are in a poor form. De Jong will finally face United at Old Trafford which he refused to switch to. Manchester United also, the fixture will unite Ronaldo back with Spanish side after some many years. Martinez will not play the first leg at Camp Nou due to bookings he had. It's gon to be good, can judge let the best side win

It was a really pure dominance by Arsenal in this match. It is very enjoyable to watch Arsenal this season actually. Arteta has a great game plan fitting the players exactly. I love their attacking style a lot as they have a high percentage of passing now. It was the same against PSV also and PSV really had nothing to do to prevent them. They found only a couple of opportunities and wasted them that's all.

Gabriel Jesus actually had so many goal chances in this match but he couldn't make use of any of them. He was very close to scoring one time but Benitez saved it really nicely. Xhaka's goal was no different than a shot by a striker. He really has a good technique which helps the team in this kind of critical situations a lot. Otherwise they were still not able to score any goal despite that incredible one-sided performance.
Well, for me, Arsenal is a team that always gives a lot to offer, when we talk about Gambriel Jesus, it comes to my mind once and for all, it is the Brazilian team and if I think that he plays with Neymar, he is one of the pieces fundamental that he is in Brazil and that Arsenal have him, there is something that I have always realized about Gabriel Jesus, when things are not right for him they are not right not even because they serve him in cheap silverware, because they always I see that he misses a lot of goals, it's as if he was beta, no matter how good games he plays, he doesn't score, the only way I know that he makes important assists, but he has that problem.

Roma are going to play a really important match for themselves in three days. They have to defeat Ludogorets in Italy otherwise they will continue in the Europa Conference League later on.

Ludogorets seem to have a really big advantage in their hands for sure. But I still think that there is no way Roma are losing points against them home. I know that their priority is to be successful in the Serie A this season. They are doing better than the previous season and they want to keep a good run in the end. But I think they will care about this critical match of the group stage. Their fixture is a little tight these days. They are playing against Verona at the moment. Two days after the Ludogorets match, they have another match in the Serie A. But I still think Mourinho won't rotate the squad much and they will do their best for the next round in the Europa League. 1.33 is a small odd to bet on but it would be nice in a multi.
For me, according to what I have seen in how Roma's performance has been, it is something that can be said that they will be able to leave the Conference League, it is a fact that they will be in the Eurpa League, but really that does not worry me what in The truth is that it worries me that Roma does not have Dybala, and Dybala is key in this team, Mou cannot perform miracles, Mou does as much as he can, for me the Europa League is going to become one of the most watched competitions, they are teams that are too good.



Mourinho: ‘We Want Europa League Play-Offs; One Result to Get There”





Quote
Ahead of the Giallorossi’s vital clash against Ludogrets within the last week of the Europa League, Roma boss Mourinho previewed the important tie.

As it stands within Group C, both teams are level with seven points, but Ludogrets have the upper edge as they posses the superior record head-to-head. As a result, obtaining anything fewer than three points at the Stadio Olimpico would send Mourinho’s squad down to the Conference League.

All the teams that worked hard during this group stages must be cursing their luck. Look at all the teams that are coming from UCL as well. At the end of the day, there will be a blood bath when you get closer to it, it’s going to be a bit of a superb thing that we could have a lot of fun because it is going to be a lot of great teams and a lot of great matchups and we are going to have a lot of fun with it.

I am not saying that it’s going to be this team or that team but I can say that it’s going to benefit the viewer. And that is what football is about isn't it? You may win or lose, but if the fans are having fun because you are here, then you already did something great anyway.

Of course the play-offs are always more interesting than when the clubs play to get out of the group... Especially since the Europa League is now made up of strong clubs who couldn't stay in the Champions League... Yes, I also think that the competition will increase, but the more interesting for us... I think Ajax, Sporting and Barcelona will fight for the final match...

Definitely enjoying the quality of Europa a lot, I've always liked this tournament, and it was the first time I saw Liverpool lift a European trophy too (against Alaves in the old format) and back then I honestly was watching my first European games and til today I think the quality has been very, very good. At one point even UCL was getting boring but thankfully teams have evolved to ultra attack now.

~snip

But at least they decide to show up late.

this makes all the difference, just looking at Valencia in La Liga, losing points in last 15 minutes five times in a row, either from winning to draw or draw to lose, they should be trained to have strength for 95 minutes Smiley

but Lazio did not show up, and they are out to Conference, hopefully not to make Partizan life harder in next round
looking at teams that were out, there are some decent teams in the list, hard to pick potential rival

In England they call Valencia they team that loves to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory Wink But yeah, while I've found it far easier to give up on teams that've let me down (Valencia, Sevilla, Villareal more recently, Koln last season, in Europa), I have a problem with Lazio specifically because I was slightly favouring them in Serie A a couple of seasons ago, so in my mind they're still a good team. Really need to banish such thoughts now.

Def might keep riding with Partizan, they've made me some good money this season, even if they lost me my last one.

Roma played well against Ludogorets, although I had my doubts about this match. Many thought Ludogorets could make it to second place. But most of all I was surprised by the play of Lazio, a team I had no doubts about, but they failed to score and moved up to the Conference League. Feyenord were stronger and took first place in the group.

Honestly, it's impossible to beat Rome at home they have experience as the Confederations League champion last season, maybe you still remember that moment
At first I was surprised when I saw Ludogorets scoring first and won in the first half but Roma managed to change the situation until finally Roma won 3-1

Regarding Lazio, it's really sad even though they only need a draw in the last match and despite having the same points as competitors, they failed because their total goals were lower.

I needed both to score in this one for my multi so a bit extra salty maybe Smiley
interesting group dough, all teams end up with 8 points, goal difference was there to make all the difference, and Lazio lost 5:1 from Midtjylland

Nantes pulled win over Olympiakos, and proceed to next round, congrats after three loses in a row

Actually feel even Lazio supporters are saying the same thing, better not to go on and make fools of yourself if you don't even want to be in the next round.

TBF actually hearing some Spurs fans saying the same shit, except they somehow found a way to progress in the end. They played every game going missing in first half... almost like Real did last season.

But at least they decide to show up late.

Congratulation to Manchester united, but they struggle to defeated their opponent 1-0 with the help of cristiano Ronaldo. But, I don't think Manchester united will achieve success in their next game because they can either play with Barcelona or Juventus in their next game, and all those teams has talented squads that know how to use their strength and energy to attract goals that will bring them success at the end of the game

Arsenal made hard work of topping their Europa League group after securing a hard fought 1-0 win over Zurich. Even though Arsenal didn’t play well yesterday, they really impressed me, they knew they needed to score and win because PSV were always going to win. Now Arsenal will avoid the likes of Barcelona, Juventus, Ajax and Sevilla as they receive a bye into the round of 16. It’s a good relief, at least let them play the weak teams in the next round since they have a target in their domestic league.

Manchester United will be playing against one of the UCL clubs either Barcelona or Juventus in their next Europa match. What's Manchester United's fate since Barcelona and Juventus are joining the Europa League
Manchester United's fate will be fine because their performances have improved and are no longer considered a team that can give their opponents an easy victory.
If Barcelona or Juventus will be their opponents in the next round in the UEFA Europa League, I don't think it's Manchester United that we need to ask about their fate but Barcelona or Juventus what will happen to them when they meet Manchester United.

There is a possibility that Ajax Amsterdam will be the opponent of Manchester United in the next round. But we are waiting for the results of the draw which will be held on 7 November at UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland.

I had Man Utd to win, thanks to David Gea for saving the for me, I really just went with my guts and I was prompted by the odds too I'm not gonna lie because I felt the 2 Odds was really just valuable to me.
Without De Gea, Manchester United should lose the match. Anyway, 3 points and one goal are not enough for them to get the first position in that group. So they will have to play against a club which was relegated from Champions League. This potentially brings a tougher opponent to Manchester United.

Ronaldo did have an effortful match and had an assist to Garnacho who scored his first goal for Manchester United after 7 matches for the club. Interesting to know when Ronaldo has a first match for United in 2003, Garnacho were not born. After scoring the goal, he celebrated it as same as Ronaldo's celebration style recently.


Ten Hag tried to send Marguie in last few minutes and let him play at the striker position to try another goal but failed.


UEFA Europa League knockout round play-off draw: What is it? Where to watch it? Who are the teams?

Quote
There are 16 teams in the draw: the eight runners-up from the Europa League group stage will be seeded; the eight third-placed teams from the Champions League group stage will be unseeded.

Seeded teams
Manchester United (ENG)
Midtjylland (DEN)
Monaco (FRA)
Nantes (FRA)
PSV Eindhoven (NED)
Rennes (FRA)
Roma (ITA)
Union Berlin (GER)

Unseeded teams
Ajax (NED)
Barcelona (ESP)
Juventus (ITA)
Leverkusen (GER)
Salzburg (AUT)
Sevilla (ESP)
Shakhtar Donetsk (UKR)
Sporting CP (POR)

There is no club from England in the Unseed team list, so Manchester United will have risk to meet one of clubs including: Barcelona, Juventus, Leverkusen and Sevilla (they are strongest clubs in this list personally).

Group F remained to be fantastic until very end. All 4 teams got 8 points, can't remember anything similar. Feyenoord and Midtjylland goes to next round, Lazio and Sturm got eliminated because H2H results.
Quite interesting group and teams leading the group previously lost and failed to maintain even a draw, so Midtjylland (today 2-0 against Strum Graz) and Feyenoord (today 1-0 against Lazio) are advancing to the next round.
Especially Lazio was a bit disappointing by showing a weak performance, which was somehow unexpected even in an away game.

https://i.imgur.com/3ng2spB.png

And kudos to Union Berlin once again for a very strong defensive performance.
During group phase, Union only scored 4 goals but conceded even fewer (2 goals), so 4x 1:0 wins were enough for Union.

https://i.imgur.com/58cpKbb.png

Union can only win 1-0 or lose 0-1.  Cheesy Cheesy

I don't know what to say in the fight for points in this group each team has fought their best but the fact is that luck only favors some teams
Getting knocked out on goal difference is certainly more painful than being knocked out on a loss at least this is what Lazio players and fans have to experience
Fortunately, there are still AS Roma who represent Serie A in this competition we can imagine if there is not a single representative from Serie A

Both teams are still at the same level as Manchester United so there's nothing to worry about if you think Juventus and Barca  are strong opponents then they shouldn't be knocked out of the Champion League right? Manchester United is currently on the right track they almost recorded a perfect win in the Europa League. By the way Roma managed to make a comeback 3-1 after losing in the first half with this win Roma goes to the next round, do you know who their next opponent is?
Oh, yes, you should not buy into the magic of names and the current Juventus certainly does not look better at the level of the game than Manchester United. Massimiliano Allegri can say as much as he likes after each match how angry he and the team are at losing, but the fact remains that Juventus scored the same number of points as Maccabi, who took the last fourth place and was able to get into the Europa League only thanks to a better goal difference. Barcelona also does not look like an impassable opponent for Manchester United, so it is difficult to name an undisputed favorite here. Roma had a rather strange match with Ludogorets and allowed the opponent too much and could have paid for it if, say, the referee had not canceled the second goal of Ludogorets.

I've got Villarreal to win for this night fixture and they're already trailing by a goal against desperate Lech Poznan.

Completely terrible result for Villarreal, I really didn't expect to perform that badly. 3 Unanswered goals is terrible!


I'm waiting for Fenerbahçe's match tonight excitedly. Because if Fenerbahce win that match I will have a really big amount of winnings.  Grin  All of the other matches so far on the betslip have won so far.

Congratulations on your bet!

Fenerbache won the game convincingly, right from the very first half, and that was enough for them as Dynamo Kiev couldn't find anyway back into the game, and playing the last 30 minutes with just 10 men couldn't have in anyway helped matters for Ukrainian team, they had nothing to play for to begin with, though.

interesting round, lot to be solved tonight
Zvezda is down 3:1 in Monaco at the moment, and they need to overcome score totally and win for next stage, pretty tough
Lazio is down in Rotterdam, and setting to play in Conference league, if they do not score in last 20 minutes

Olympiakos is really disappointing team this season
United lead against Sociedad

Crvena Zvezda got destroyed by Monaco and now is fully knocked out fully from all tournaments. Expected more from them this season but they couldnt even take third place. Lazio is really bad in europe this season and keeps losing points to lower quality teams.
