I don't see Galatasaray qualifying for the next round. They can not compete with Barcelona. The catalans are doing an excellent performance in their league game. Barcelona sole aim is win the Europa league and qualify for champions league next season. Xavi had turned the team around ever since he arrived at Barca, new tactics, new players. The thing is that each Manger needs time to settle things at the club. Barcelona will knock-out Galatasaray our of the Europa league. The players at Barca are really thirsty for the trophy. I don't see anything competend as Barcelona.

Galatasaray will find it difficult this second leg, they were lucky to play draw in the first leg but they won't be lucky this time i think. Barcelona are playing really well in the La liga and the coach has helped the team alot and build their confidence but winning the Europa league could be challenging especially the semi final stage and the final it wont be as easy it seems.

Why Galatasaray find difficult on second leg actually as advantage with playing home? Exactly other side Barcelona finding bad thing because failed win on first leg and held draw scored make both team have chance 50% to qualify on next stage. Barcelona have top perform on domestic league after last winning 4-0 from Osasuna but next match against with Galatasaray have difficult choose few days later they have important match against with Real Madrid as el casico. I think Barcelona have difficult option because want to win on all match but still give rest for their player.

Barca, Rangers, Braga to pass normally?

For Braga and Rangers yes i think so, Rangers are already 3 goals up against Red Star Belgrade, so that game should be as good as finished, the same can be said of Braga who lead Monaco 2-0, so it is really going to be difficult for Monaco to bet back into this game, though not impossible. But as for Barcelona, they head into the reverse fixture against Galatasaray with no advantage after a goaless draw in the first leg, Barca are in so much good form and i do not expect this second leg tie to be like the first, i expect goals, and i think Barca will get the most of the goals and go through.

Fans are always an important part of any sport but the thing is fans not playing in the field they are just supporting and shouting.

But what fans do, sometimes gives an influence to the players' mentality on the field.

Quote from: Swordsoffreedom on March 14, 2022, 05:45:16 AM

The actual match is being played by the players. And if they can play better they will win, for me, it's as simple as that.

It is not as simple as that. Sometimes, even if players have done their best, they still cannot win the match because they are not lucky. You must know that sometimes a team that has better stats, more goal attempts, cannot win because they always fail to execute the opportunity. This can happen because the players' mentality isn't as usual, they are under pressure.

Quote from: Swordsoffreedom on March 14, 2022, 05:45:16 AM

I don't want to get into the debate of Galatasaray being better than Napoli or vice versa. Because it's just a waste of time.

If you think it is unnecessary, simply don't comment about it. I don't ask anyone to debate it. I explain it above because I want coderben to know that a strong team on the field doesn't always determine by player popular names.

they have to take advantage of that draw in Camp Nou, so I believe they won't just stand in the back and pray that Barca won't score, I actually doubted Barca could get any further in the Europa league, but when I knew they were going to face Galatasaray I underestimated them, but now with that draw it's definitely possible that Galatasaray could qualify instead of Barcelona and I won't miss a chance to bet on them.

Galatasaray have advantage held Barcelona 0-0 on first leg because second leg will play as home but still not guarantee easy for Galatasaray because last round Barcelona most stronger when defeating Napoli as away match 4-1. But have different situation between Napoli and Galatasaray where fans as great motivation how to make dreaming as the only one Turkish Primer League team qualify to quarter final of UEFA Europa League, I am so excited if have chance watch directly to stadium with Galatasaray fans atmosphere most excited.

of course it's not going to be easy for Galatasaray but you said it, the Turkish supporters are one of the best I've seen, they really make a lot of matches more exciting, it could definitely help Galatasaray positively against Barcelona and the Barca's could fall under the pressure of the supporters in the stadium, of course I wouldn't miss a chance to watch a match like this in the stadium, but I'm pretty sure even from a screen and it will be a good match to witness.

This is a cup tournament and the fate of the confrontation is decided in one separate match, so it will not matter how Barcelona played before, what success he achieved in building a new team, if, for example, Galatasaray draws in the main and extra time and then wins in a penalty shootout. Unlike Barcelona, Galatasaray's players may not even dream of winning the Europa League yet, they cannot put all their strength and even more to win against Barcelona, which in itself is already a big irritant and victory over such a status rival is doubly pleasant. Therefore, you should not rush into forecasts in advance, because Galatasaray is quite ready to fight at home, in front of his frantic fans.

This Thursday will be intense with many teams struggling to pass the round of 16 except the red bull lucky luke Leipzig.
Barca, Rangers, Braga to pass normally?
Leverkusen and Atalanta nothing confirmed although the 1 goal difference for the latter team.
Betis and Porto could comeback in their games and Sevilla could maintain its advantage. I just wonder see if the Real Madrid - PSG scenario could happen here or not!

After yesterday's big victory for Barcelona, everyone (including Barcelona players) will expect a similar result from the second match against Galatasaray (like it was in the Bayern-Salzburg pair). But in fact, Galatasaray can continue to play total defense and either play well on the counterattack or finish the game to a penalty shootout and win there. The game will take place in Istanbul, which will give Galatasaray some advantages over the first match.

Fortunately, the last match result of victory was very satisfying so that Barcelona players performance will not be influenced so much with what happen there.
But honestly, if Barcelona can play consistent, the main player combinations are set as usual, they may have bigger chances. They may play more offensive in order to defeat the Galatassaray defenders that are actualy also very string. It seems again that there is no need to underestimate each other

More offensive? I think it will be difficult because thanks to Xavi Barcelona are already back in the good old days when they have a plan A (attack) and there is no more backup plan. If Galatasaray plays with an emphasis on defense, then half of the match, I'm sure, will be in the form of "Barcelona makes a million passes in the center of the field." At the same time, in my opinion, the chances of Galatasaray's counterattacks and Barcelona's attacks will be approximately the same.

The first leg match Barcelona vs Galatasaray was beyond the expectations of many parties where the match ended in a 0-0 draw where Barcelona was very difficult to score with the tight defense of Galatasaray so that Barca failed to win the first leg match at Camp Nou, where in the match itself Barcelona only scored one shot on target even though they managed to control 63% of ball possession which made Barcelona frustrated with the tight Galatasaray defense, but all parties were optimistic that Barcelona could qualify for the next round in the second leg at the NEFStadyumu

There is nothing beyond the limits because we can expect any result in any soccer game with all teams and players have just one motto win for their team so Barcelona vs Galatasaray match was also usual, and it's not happening first time we have some big shocking results in this season with unknown teams defeating top brands of soccer world and then losing their matches very easily.

Especially after watching match between Real Madrid vs PSG in Madrid we can expect all results so here Barcelona is still having very strong case for qualifying into next round, and even they can reach out into final as well.

Galatasaray is having terrible season in Turkish League, but they are performing extraordinary in Europa Cup with in presence of Lazio and Marseille they qualified for knock out round is amazing from them now first phase draw is also magical, let's watch now how they perform at their own home.

The rematch that I'm curious about the most now is obviously Galatasaray vs Barcelona. The first game in Camp Nou was beyond the expectations of everyone. I guess that everyone was predicting Barcelona to win that game very easily. In the end, there was a really big gap between these teams and Galatasaray were having really bad days before this game too. And we didn't know how they were going to perform here after a manager change. But they ended all the questions by showing a solid defensive performance and getting a 0-0 draw. I've started giving a chance for Galatasaray to advance to the next stage but it is not a big one.

I think that few people except the most loyal Turkish fans of Galatasaray consider Galatasaray the favorite in the return match with Barcelona, but still it is worth admitting that thanks to the zero draw Galatasaray greatly increased their chances of reaching the next stage of the Europa League. Barcelona failed to provide the necessary advantage in the first match and now psychological problems may come to the fore, both due to the youth of the players and excessive responsibility for the result, since everyone is waiting only for victory. There are no such high expectations from Galatasaray, which in turn can liberate the club's players.

Yes, that is true because expectation can play a big part in any match. And obviously, a lot of people are expecting Barcelona to win against Galatasaray. Don't forget Barcelona also has the added pressure of finishing in the top 3 in La Liga. So, Barcelona is obviously the favorite in this match. They did draw the first leg, but I still think that there will be winners in the second leg.

Barcelona played really well their last few matches.Specially, Xavi doing very well for Barcelona. Barcelona now very strong team as well.Galatasaray also strong team.1st leg both team did fight for win but unfortunately they didn’t score goal.I hope second leg Barcelona will win this match.

Barcelona did well and their performance was so impressive during the end of the game. Barcelona is a team that have always enjoyed their performance right from the day of Messi.if Barcelona can keep on with an impressive performance that will be very nice, Barcelona needs to be in the top.

I'm also one of the people who really appreciate Galatasaray's solid resistance against Barcelona in the first leg of the matchup. But I think that this is still going to be end of the road for Galatasaray in this round. Barcelona are having a great time period nowadays. Maybe their main goal is to achieve the best success they can in the La Liga now. But I don't think that they will give up on the Europa League too. They wouldn't say no to achieving one title at least in this season. So I believe they will eliminate Galatasaray here first.

The draw that occurred between Barca and Galatasaray will not be repeated in the second leg later, Barca must be able to prove that because it will be a hard blow if they lose to Galatasaray who are currently ranked 11th in the Turkish league standings. The second leg is not only the decisive match to qualify for the next round but also pride for barca.

Almost predicting have expectation with Barcelona could make party on first leg against with Galatasaray and scoring many goals, but result is not depending what many expectation want because Galatasaray success held Barcelona on first leg without any goal 0-0. Maybe as advantage and become easy for Galatasaray as home match against with Barcelona on second leg, just take try how to be keep confidence and try to score on early game begin maybe make easy for Galatasaray for controlling games.

Galatasaray will have to play in turkey superlig classic match against besiktas in few minutes left while barcelona have rested since yesterday, a bit advantage for barcelona especially if you look at how galatasaray struggling in the domestic league trying to survive from relegation ironically.

It's a sure winning for barcelona , everyone might go allin for barcelona moneyline this thursday.

I watch Turkish Super League matches and often bet. Galatasaray are having a terrible performance this season. Galatasaray is a well-known team in the Super Lig. However, they are likely to move into the relegation zone this season. I have never seen such a poor performance by a team in Galatasaray. Barcelona now has a very good chance to win, even Barcelona will win by 3 goals.

If I were to be Barcelona my major focuse would be to win the Europa League. It is important to them to win the Europa League this will increase their profile again in laliga and Europe at large.
In the laliga Barcelona has done their best and they are in the top four which many people did not believe will happen but it has happened.
Another concern for Barcelona is the team they will have to face after winning Galatasaray because I know that they will win Galatasaray and qualify for next round.

Reaching the European League Champion trophy can be a shortcut for Barcelona to penetrate the Champions League next season, indeed they are currently still in the top 4 leagues as the champions league zone boundary, but I don't think there is anything wrong with Barcelona if they make the European league trophy as their go the main target and just in case they are eliminated from the top 4 competition in la Liga later, besides that the Europa League trophy can be proof for Xavi that he is a young coach to be reckoned with in European competition.
The draw in the 1st leg is a loss for Barcelona, but if Xavi can use a different tactic against Galatasaray at Galatasaray sk, I think Barcelona will be able to beat Galatasaray in the match.

The first game result came as a big surprise. Because, since Galatasaray wasn't in their best form, we though Barcelona will probably beat them. However, both teams played quite well, but Galatasaray had a strong defense which helped them to end in the match in scoreless draw. Nevertheless, is difficult to predict who will win in the rematch, but I think Barcelona are the favourite here. Although, Galatasaray will be hosting this time. IMO, Barcelona is likely to win the rematch, and it might be with a goal difference.

Atalanta - Leverkusen

honestly this will be a game in which the two teams did not have good results in their league games which makes this game even more unpredictable. atalanta, lost in series A, lost against a weak team and I can't even understand how they couldn't score at least 1 goal, while leverkusen lost in the bundesliga against a team that is 7th position. I personally will not bet on this game
