True, both Erik ten hag and Xavi will definitely prepare the best strategy for the first leg match later, but again Barcelona will get the opportunity to host first and the support flowing from the Blaugranes will pump up the enthusiasm of the Barcelona players. I think Xavi has to anticipate Marcus Rashford's movements because in several Manchester United matches he is very consistent in scoring goals in every regular league match and does not rule out the possibility that he will score again against Barcelona later.

IMO, the home-field advantage will be a significant influence in this match. The energy levels of the Barcelona players will undoubtedly be enhanced by the backing of the Blaugranas. To limit Marcus Rashford's goal-scoring talent, Xavi has his job cut out for him. Due to the fact that both coaches are planning their best methods, it is difficult to predict the outcome of this game. There will be a lot to watch when two talented teams meet!

If I compare Erik ten Hag with Xavi, then I'm still pretty sure Erik ten Hag is still the better one. But because Barcelona have a better squad and have a player with a very good sense of goal like Lewandowski, then I will choose Barcelona to win this match. Indeed, football is not only about one player, but if Barcelona has a very good forward and also, other players can support him by making good moves and passing then of course Barcelona has a bigger chance to win.

So yes, with their performance in the local league which also shows that Barcelona is still very consistent, then I personally am quite sure if to predict which team will win then I will have Barcelona and it is not a difficult choice for now.

You cannot go into conclusion by saying that Barcelona will win Manchester united when they meet. Remember that Manchester united has a strong defense and Casemiro will be playing the match. If you talk about Lewandoski, I am also watching out for him but Manchester united also have Rashford.

You see the match is unpredictable and Manchester united shouldn't be underestimated because the team has a strong fighting spirit when it comes to over defeat. The present coach is different from the other coaches that have played Barcelona, Eric is the man that built this team and he understands how to use his players at the right time.

Well, in that sense you are absolutely right, obviously sometimes there is speculation about which team has the best position based on its performance, but it is known that each game is a different story, and that both teams want to win, here the most will win. strong, there is no doubt about that.

The game can take place in a purely technical scenario, or where both teams go out to attack with everything they have, or they can take care until they make a mistake or play defensively to find the counterattack, I don't know, I only know that Barcelona needs win the Europa League to clear their name very well and return to the UCL as one of the strongest teams and to Man United to recover their reputation.

Barcelona did well yesterday they score two goals even if cadiz made it hard for barcelona for over the first half
They have a chance against United if they are ready
Man United also won well yesterday I don't know still Barcelona will have a good chance to qualify

The two teams are still equally good lately and it will still be very difficult to determine which team opportunities will meet the requirements to advance to the next round. Because this time Barcelona will be the guest team at Old Trafford and in the second leg of course the enthusiasm and motivation of Manchester United to win at home is also very large so that the match will still be fierce like the first leg and can even be more exciting than the first leg.

Also so far in the premier league Manchester United when playing at home is very strong, Barcelona might struggle at there. Yes the second leg will sure be more exciting, considering that the Europa League trophy is very important for both of them at this time. By the way, I expected that in the second leg Juventus will win with a big score against Nantes, because in my opinion Nantes is not such a tough team. Previously, I was very disappointed that Juventus could only draw in the first leg.

Manchester united are usually tough when playing at home , it won't be easy with Barcelona. If Barcelona are able to play a draw game with Manchester United that means they have tried as a team to equalize the game. Manchester United are getting more aggressive in every match they play.

You're right, Man United looks very lively, plus Manchester had always had a rough style of play, but they shouldn't be trusted, Barcelona is a very strong team, they are in first place in the League, that's what they want say that it is a very strong team, and Barcelona is the type of team that as they go up in a competition they do better and better, so if Manchester is at a high level, Barcelona must be at the same level or even much more.

Good things for Barcelona:

Barcelona midfielder Sergio Busquets back ahead of Manchester United fixture

Quote

Barcelona have received a major injury boost ahead of their away fixture against Manchester United in the Europa League.

Last Thursday, at home, the Spanish giants had to play without captain Sergio Busquets due to injury.

The first leg at Spotify Camp Nou ended in a fantastic 2-2 draw despite the injuries collected in the game and the players who missed out on both sides.

The day after, it was once again rumoured that the Spanish midfielder could miss out on the away tie this week.

It wasn't enough for Barcelona, Man United literally crushed them, they didn't give them the opportunity and now Man United passed, too bad for Xavi who must not be having a good time.

'You beautiful man': Antony banishes critics with winning goal against Barcelona as Manchester United supporters line up to praise the Brazilian for 'stepping up' in a decisive moment

Quote

Antony has been roundly praised by Manchester United supporters on social media following his match-winning goal against Barcelona on Thursday night.

The Brazilian, who has faced his fair share of critics since his high-profile move from Ajax last summer, delivered the knockout blow as United defeated Barcelona 2-1 on the night (4-3 agg) to advance to the last-16 of the Europa League.

Echoing the praise handed out to the player by his manager post-match, with Erik ten Hag citing Antony's innate belief in his own abilities, supporters took to social media to lavish the winger with acclaim.

'Antony, you beautiful man,' one clearly enthused supporter wrote.

Another echoed the sentiment, urging the Brazilian to maintain his impressive performance levels. 'What a player!' they wrote. 'Keep going Antony, you are amazing.'

What I like is that a Brazilian shone, I'm happy for Antony because I know that his life has been very hard and difficult, I love that he succeeds and I hope he continues to do so.
