The round of 16 of the Europa League has been confirmed to be over and now 8 teams have confirmed themselves to qualify for the quarter-finals, here is the list:
  • Leipzig
  • Barcelona
  • Atalanta
  • Rangers
  • Braga
  • Eintracht Frankfurt
  • West Ham
  • Lyon

Out of these 8 teams, Barcelona and Atalanta have the most chances to win the title. Barcelona is a strong team now. The first goal they scored yesterday fascinated me. The tiki-taka technique of those old days. It was awesome. Atalanta, on the other hand, recently lost form in Serie A. So now maybe they want to win the Europa League title. I would be happy if Atalanta and Barcelona did not face each other before the final. I would like to see the final of Atlanta vs Barcelona.
Finally, there are eight teams left. Barcelona has been unbeaten in their last 11 matches. This is an opportunity for them to make their attacking play more deadly. Failing to do so will cost them. It will be a pleasure to win the Europa League. We are a different Barca compared to a couple months ago. Both Napoli and Galatasaray trailed them when they were playing, but they won, which is a clear sign of a strong mind. As for West Ham, they beat Sevilla, so everyone should take them seriously as title contender!

I think that Barcelona,Atalanta and Leipzig have the best chance of winning the tournament.
Of course that Barcelona stands out from the rest of the teams,but I wouldn't underestimate Atalanta or Leipzig.Somehow Xavi managed to lift the spirits and inspire the players.The arrival of Aubamejang was a great deal for Barcelona.I really hope that they will keep Ousmane Dembele after the end of the season(I guess that they will have to convince Dembele to lower his paycheck and stay for another year or two).
The rest of the teams won't stand a chance against those three teams.

  • Barcelona
  • Atalanta
  • Rangers

Of the 8 teams that made it to the quarter-finals, only Barcelona was the most favored to enter the final. Other teams also have the opportunity to be in the final, but only the best team can advance to the final, after seeing Barcelona's performance under Xavi's leadership, I really believe that Barcelona will be able to reach the top match.
We will soon see which team will meet Barcelona after the Drawing is done.

Possible opponents Barcelona in the last 8 of the Europa League.

Barcelona are currently in their best form. They are more likely and favorite to win the Europa league title.
You know when Barcelona were knocked out of UCL and only competed in the Europa League there was a meme that appeared that Barcelona would be champions here, maybe like mocking but it could also be because looks at Barca history who have a good history at UCL. Barcelona have a great chance as champions, seeing their greatness some time ago should not be a difficult competition but Barcelona are now different enough so other teams have a chance to damage their chances of winning here.

Barcelona are currently in their best form. They are more likely and favorite to win the Europa league title. The only two competitor I see that would challenge Barcelona to the finals are RB Leipzig and westham United. Westham are the only English side to be among the Europa qualifier till this moment, after the beat Sevilla in the extra time of the game. Let's wait and see the Europa league draw fixtures before we conclude, but I'm hoping for Lyon or Atalanta to host Barcelona.
I don't know why you think that Leipzig will make it difficult for Barcelona if they meet in the quarter-finals, but I agree about West Ham. So far Leipzig have qualified automatically for the quarter-finals after their match was canceled by FIFA, so you really can't be sure that Leipzig really deserved to qualify if FIFA didn't cancel their match against Spartak Moscow.

Apart from West Ham, I think Atalanta are also a strong team so far both in the Europa League and in their domestic league. Atalanta may have a chance of qualifying for the semifinals of the Europa League this season despite having to meet Barcelona, ​​but it will certainly be difficult. I hope barcelona can reach the final and win the title this season because of their high hopes so far.

It was already very difficult for Galatasaray to be victorious from this match. But after they scored the first goal, I believed, I thought they could beat Barcelona. However, after conceding the first goal, there were big problems in Galatasaray's offensive.
While they were trying to score with the counterattack, they started to attack normally and there were big gaps in the defense. Barcelona started to play more comfortably and as a result scored the second goal. Actually, Galatasaray also had good positions, but they couldn't score
As at the beginning of the match, I thought Galatasaray will win the match, and even after the first goal, not until Barcelona have ilthe equalizing goal, then Barcelona begins to have a full control of the game. In general Galatasaray were unlucky to qualify but they really tried in the match.
I can now conclude that Barcelona can be the Europa league Champions this season.
Barcelona are favorites to win the Europa league title this season, If you could recalled that the catalans have been unbeaten in their last 11 games. They successfully sealed a win in the second half of the game against Galatasaray, and which they have qualify for the next round of the Europa league, although their opponents proved a little bit stubborn to make the game difficult for Barcelona, but you could see things that change in the second half of the game. When Barcelona keeps on dominating in the game and having too many goal scoring attempts, even Galatasaray had their own goal scoring opportunity but could not make good use of it.

I was surprised with the performance West ham United put on yesterday. Andriy Yarmolenko was again the hero for West Ham as his extra-time goal knocked out Sevilla and sent West ham United into the Europa League quarter-finals after a 2-0 victory.  I must say that Got to say Yarmolenko, phenomenal for him to get the winner with everything going on off the park. Fair play to the lad. Thoroughly deserved and a brilliant story. Happy for Moyes, he really deserves it and as for Yarmalenko bagging the winner, simply amazing. West Ham under Moyes have been fantastic to watch for two seasons now. To think of it, they are in a good position both in the domestic league and the European championship with no depth in squad.

The match between Galatasaray and Barcelona was quite fierce. Because both teams played very openly and seemed to attack each other alternately since the early minutes. The home team (Galatasaray) who appeared in a front of their supporters appeared quite charming, but Galatasaray had to admit the superiority of Barcelona. The performance of Xavi Hernandez team is still above Galatasaray, a score of 1-2 is enough to prove Barcelona is a team that has a winning mentality.
Barcelona is the only representative of Spain who has qualified for the last 8 round. Because in another match, Sevilla and Real Betis failed to get a ticket to the last 8 round.

The Frankfurt vs Betis match is an interesting one to watch, because the match was tense, especially after Betis managed to score a goal in
the 90th minute. Finally forced the match to proceed to extra time, this is where the game gets even more interesting. Which Frankfurt as
the host escaped dramatically after in 120 minutes got a goal through an own goal from Betis players. This defeat is really painful for Betis,
because only a few seconds until the game will end and go to the penalty shootout. But disaster struck by an own goal from Guido Rodriguez,
which finally made the final score 1-1. Meaning that Frankfurt has the right to qualify for the next round, because Frankfurt excel on aggregate,
where the first leg match Frankfurt managed to beat Betis.

I watched the highlight of this match and it was really a tiring struggle last minute defeat ruined all their efforts
Overall both teams played evenly based on statistics ball possession is not much different it's just that luck is on Frankfurt's side
The Europa League looks unique this season we see the teams that go to the next round are from different leagues unless the Bundesliga has the potential to send 2 teams.

Eintracht Frankfurt 0 - 0 Betis

Betis will not be able to move to another phase

Well the game just ended after the overtime and in the end it was a 1-1 which is the same as a 0-0 now because the away goal rule is not existent anymore, so Frankfurt managed to advance into the next round. Even though the result of 1-1 may not really sound like the match was interesting i have to say, that this match was very exciting to watch. First Frankfurt was the better and dominating team even though that they were already leading 2-1 because of the first leg. Towards the end of the regular time Betis became stronger which happens all the time because they needed 1 goal to get into the overtime and they really managed to score in the 90th minute. Then Betis was stronger for the biggest part of the overtime in my opinion but the last 10 minutes or so were controlled by Frankfurt again. In the end Frankfurt was also a little lucky because their goal in the 120th minute was a own goal of Betis.

 We never really expected to win against a team like Barcelona. However, it was definitely annoying to watch the Barcelona we know, the famous sextuple team, to end up wasting time and acting childish. They literally managed to waste time by doing dirty tricky plays and Alba and Pique ended up doing things that would be cause for send off in most other games. They are definitely and %100 surely better team than we ever will be, and I doubt we (galatasaray) would ever be this high for a long time with the economy as it is. But to lose it this way? To lose it to a famous Barcelona team wasting time by dirty moves? That was seriously dissapointing to watch. I wish we lost 4-0 or something so that we wouldn't see this humiliated Barcelona, that would have been preferable.

It's not the good galatasaray i believe , it's just the bad barcelona. They conceded first and make barcelona a bit nervous. Luckily the 19 years old pedro gozalez and aubameyang come to the rescue.
Well played barcelona , xavi seems has found his best 11 , he could recover the great barcelona sooner if they win this europa league.
We won't see a good Barcelona, as you put it, for several more seasons. We should be happy how Xavi gathers a normal team from the set of available players and achieves normal results with them. Galatasaray himself was afraid of the advantage over a team like Barcelona and lost his grip. And still, I think it's too early to say that Barcelona is the undisputed favorite for the title of the winner of the Europa League. The format of the draw is cup and everything can be decided in one match, the match of Barcelona and Galatasaray is indicative. But still, I am surprised that Galatasaray could not impose a big fight on their competitors from Barcelona.

Very interesting day in Europa league.
First, about Barca game. It wasn't wqorth to expect that it will be easy to win away, but when we conceded first, I started to worry a bit. Any way,  Barca made comeback and went to next round
West Ham - Sevilla, it's great game and it's sad that one of these teams will be eliminated. And Yarmolenko goal in extra time lead West Ham to next round. It was very emotional moment
Late Betis goal against Eintracht sent game to extra time and Eintracht managed to win after very late goal in extra time - that was quite big mistake of Betis goalkeeper.
Ranger lost to Crvena Zvezda 2:1, but after solid win in 1st leg, it's not big deal.
Atalanta 1 - 0 Leverkusen

Atalanta won, it's unbelievable that they managed to move to another phase
Why it's unbelieavable?
