I think is finally time for Slavia Prague to test what it feels to lose a game after so many games without losing.Arsenal should have no problems of winning today if they take the match seriously and they should based on what happened to Leicester and Rangers.

so it will be better than the arsenal not to draw because if this game ends in a draw I believe that we will see the same scenario of the past where Slavia Prague managed to move to another stage (in recent games against English teams). if the arsenal defense makes the same mistakes it did in the game against liverpool then they will lose

Quote from: ILuckyGuyI on April 08, 2021, 09:38:16 AM

I don't think Slavia Prague can manage to draw with Arsenal. It will be a very tough away game for them. I expect Arsenal to win it with a 2-goal difference.

arsenal is a team that when the person thinks they will win they lose and for this game i would not put so much faith that the arsenal can win easily

Quote from: ILuckyGuyI on April 08, 2021, 09:38:16 AM

As for Granada - Manchester Utd, I think it may end in a draw. And even it can be enough for Manchester Utd to finish the job in the second leg.

in my opinion manchester united will win

Ajax - Roma

if i were to bet for this game i would bet on BTTS

Dinamo Zagreb - Villarreal

I think Villarreal will win

So with that in mind, i see good chances that slavia praha and granada can manage a draw in the games today, especially if ManU and Arsenal are not playing with their best players today.

Granada vs Manchester United i think we will have few number of goals in this match as Man United is in a much better momentum and have seen few goals conceded recently also i see them as more favorites to get back home with a victory from the first leg. Not mention that Granada has trouble converting its chances into goals.

As for Ajax and Roma I expect to see over 2.5 goals
As both teams have got some good scoring matches this season. Ajax have some defensive troubles, their back is shaken and since the two teams have significant attacking power we expect to see more then 3 goals scored.

If you only look at the squads, the recent history and the budget of the clubs that are still in the Europa League right now than you have 2 clear favorites to win this cup: Manchester United and Arsenal as they have by far the most valuable squads.
Everyone knows though that the Europa League has not the highes priority for the biggest clubs in europe to which i still count Arsenal and ManU. So with that in mind, i see good chances that slavia praha and granada can manage a draw in the games today, especially if ManU and Arsenal are not playing with their best players today.

Ajax vs Roma is also a great game which could also easily be a Champions League play off game. Both teams have the same quality in their squads so it depends which team is in better shape today.

I'm sure the two English teams will win today's match, or at least they will go through to the next round. I have my own reasons about my belief that these two English teams will win because the opponents they face are not very strong and also, the opposing team which has a lot of injured players becomes a difficult rotation against the English team at this moment. United and Arsenal are at least in their best form at the moment and that is the very opposite of the opponents they are facing so yeah, I'm pretty sure these two English teams will win.

Today I bet on Ajax, Man U and Dinamo Zagreb to win... About the last team - they played very well at home against Spurs, I hope that Villareal will also be beaten! Wink

Maybe Arsenal will also beat Slavia, but if you look at the statistics of the last matches, Slavia has a better record than Arsenal...

I have almost the same predictions as yours, maybe because predicting the Europa League is not as difficult as the Champions League.
So for sure most people will choose their favorite team to win, I agree Ajax, Arsenal and Manchester United will win the game. But for
the Dinamo Zagreb vs Villarreal match I prefer Villarreal who will win the match. It is true that Zagreb cannot be underestimated because
they managed to beat Spurs, but they were just lucky, because indeed Spurs performance was poor. And Zagreb's luck is only up to the quarter
finals in my opinion, because Villarreal's last three matches in La Liga have won. This means that Villarreal's performance is good right now.

Very difficult to say today how the games will end, I think so for today:

Dinamo Zagreb - Villarreal -> draw
Ajax - Roma -> Ajax win
Arsenal - Slavia Praha -> Arsenal win
Granada - Man. United -> draw

I can't say for sure, it's a belly feeling. Grin

I will watch the game Ajax vs. Roma it's broadcast on FreeTV.

And I am pretty confident Manchester will easily be qualified further in Europa League.

Indeed, seeing the quality of the players I think Manchester United is superior. Maybe a lot of people bet Manchester United won. The statistics for Manchester United's recent matches are also good, they are better from the start of the season and are starting to stabilize.

For later Granada might lose statistically, but remember anything in football can happen. Manchester United must remain vigilant, they must not underestimate Granada. In addition, their mainstay striker Rashford looks likely to be injured so he won't play.

Arsenal will try to win the title, the winner is definitely qualified for the Champions League. But I don't think that Arsenal are strong enough for the title, but tomorrow we'll see how the different teams play.

Why did you say that mate? Gunners are pretty a good team with Europa League experience along side with Manchester United, these two clubs have the advantage of winning the Europe league trophy this season.

Im a exciting for the match tonight of Ajax - AS Roma. Too bad Ajax is missing Daley Blind for the rest of the season and he was the one best player in the Europe League matches.

Yeah, this would be a very big problem for Ajax in today match, although Tagliafico will replace him and do his best at the defense against Roma tonight, let's see the outcome tonight.

I don’t know how many know this but it looks like De Gea days are numbered at Old Trafford, and if he starts today and is dropped for the premier league then it’ll confirm that he’ll be sold in the summer transfer window. Also wagering on Arsenal is tempting to be honest, but then again I’m not sure if they’re worth my money and I have explained this in my above post, hence I’ll see if I can wager on them during the live match.

I think it is hard to blame De Gea, the coach or Manchester United itself; since the birth of De Gea and his wife; it is only normal for him to want a move to Spain where he can be closer to his family. The big question though is who starts tonight against Granada and also against Spurs on Sunday. I believe Henderson will start tonight's tie; while De gea resumes normal duty in the premier league; whichever decisions, mufc have 2 great goalkeepers between the sticks.

Todays europa league tie

Ajax ? - ? Roma
Arsenal ? - ? Slavia Prague
Dinamo Zagreb ? - ? Villarreal
Granada ? - ? Manchester United

What are your predictions for tonights tie ?

It's always very difficult to assess the balance of power in the final laps. The teams are not in the quarter-finals just because of luck, they have already shown performance. It will certainly depend on the form of the day in the next two games.

Also Ajax and Roma will play each other, and only one team will be left. Villareal will be playing Zagreb and both of those teams do not look like they will be capable of winning the title if you ask me, only team left is Arsenal and we all know they are not that great this year if you look at premier league, even if they came this far, it still means they may not end up winning. Long story short I believe it's quite possible that we may end up with United at the finals against a weaker team.

I am not saying they are guaranteed, but Ajax and Roma could have faced Zagreb and Villareal each and that would have been harder for United, this way they are already eliminated each other, which is why Uniteds job became easier if you ask me. That's why I think it's quite clear that if we do see United winning it this year it will not be a shock to anyone.

It wouldn't be a shock for people seeing Manchester Utd winning the title of course as they are one of the biggest favourites in the tournament.

I have also a feeling like we could see a final game between Arsenal and Manchester Utd. It would be very delightful to watch certainly. Grin

@ILuckyGuyI I don’t know how serious are Manchester United about winning this league, because they have almost secured their champions league spot, and hence I worry that they won’t be motivated enough to win it. Also Arsenal form is patchy this season hence I don’t expect them to make it to the finals.

It is true. If Manchester Utd would be having a bad season in the EPL, they could have given a big importance on here. But now, they may not show their best performance. But Arsenal have a really low chance to qualify for any tournament considering their place in the table. So, they may want to focus really much on the EL and win the title.

Arsenal will try to win the title, the winner is definitely qualified for the Champions League. But I don't think that Arsenal are strong enough for the title, but tomorrow we'll see how the different teams play.

Don't be so sure about it. Because Manchester Utd have no reason to win the EL now as they will qualify for the CL in the EPL. Maybe they will eliminate Granada but after that they are going to have a draw against Ajax or Roma. And then, I think Manchester Utd could be eliminated.

Man United away matches are tricky. They choke against smaller team.

Playing at home, Granada may have a little confidence to win. But I believe they will find it difficult to beat Manchester United. Manchester United have better quality players. The latest news that I received, Juan Mata and Alex Telles have returned to training. They both are likely to play in the 1st leg in Spain. I think Ole Gunnar Solskjaer will rotate his players for the game against Totthenham in the EPL.

I saw the home game of Granada against Napoli and I was not at all impressed by the way they played although they won that game.It will be another show tomorrow against Manchester United and I doubt they will have the capacity to resist,a draw would be the best result for them.And I am pretty confident Manchester will easily be qualified further in Europa League.

Manchester United is a very strong team. Granada is a weaker team compared to Manchester United. I think being able to draw this match is a big achievement for Granada. Granada has lost their last three matches. Granada also lost against Molde by 2-1. Molde was an easy opponent. My guess is that they will play with the goal of their draw against Manchester.

This is not correct lol; in Europe top 5 leagues this season; Manchester United are one of the teams with the best away record; how do you mean choke against smaller teams when Manchester United literally thrashed Real Sociedad 5 nil in the previous round.

Best away record doesn't mean they didn't. Did they not choke against smaller team in the group stage while they were playing for Champions League? They wouldn't be in Europa League if not for that loss. I said tricky since they have a recent history. You never know what kind of Manchester United team will show up.
