The Europa League is back! If the 2023/24 season is even half as good as the previous year’s tournament, we’re in for a real treat. Nothing is guaranteed in sports as eventful as football, so we could see huge upsets, shock exits, and incredible underdog performances all throughout the season.
This edition will be the last in its current form, as the number of teams participating is set to expand from a total of 57 to 78 for the first time in the competition’s history. We’re certain the clubs involved will make this year’s Europa League a tournament to remember.
Europa League powerhouses Sevilla may not feature in this year’s edition, having won last season’s tournament and qualified for the Champions League instead. However, plenty of big teams and glory-hungry underdogs are waiting to astound us in this year’s competition, such as Liverpool FC, Bayer Leverkusen, and Villarreal.
The 53rd edition of the Europa League begins on September 21st 2023 and culminates at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin in what’s normally a dramatic and tense final.
