A Scottish team could win the Europa League for the first time ever this week. Dundee United, Celtic, and Rangers have all made it to the Europa League Final in the past, but all three clubs fell short of the title. Rangers would love to be the first winner in the history of Scotland on Wednesday, yet they are underdogs per the soccer betting odds to Eintracht Frankfurt. ...
The biggest question entering this year’s Europa League was whether Spanish teams would continue to have a stranglehold on this competition. Spain has dominated this tournament over the last dozen years with Atletico Madrid winning three times and Sevilla winning four times. Neither one of those teams took part in the Europa League this time as they were involved in the Champions League, but Villarreal is looking to continue the run for La Roja. It won’t be easy for the Yellow Submarine...
Sevilla will put their unblemished Europa League Finals record on the line when they take on Inter Milan. The five-time champions have looked great throughout this year’s Europa League, knocking off Roma, Wolverhampton, and Manchester United to get to this point and only allowing a single goal in that stretch. Meanwhile, the Italian giants are out to win their fourth Europa League tit...
In a little more than a week, the Europa League will crown a champion. While the four teams involved have already earned a place in the Champions League based on their performances in their domestic leagues, all four clubs would love to add another trophy to their mantle. Sevilla will take on Manchester United in the first Europa League Semifinal on Sunday, and Inter Milan will face Shakhtar Donetsk in the second Europa League Semifinal on Monday. ...
The Europa League Quarterfinals have been set! Unlike the Champions League, none of the eight teams to make the quarterfinals were decided before the COVID-19 pandemic, so every team was in action on Wednesday and Thursday. Every club still involved in the competition will now descend on Germany for the last seven matches in the 2019-20 Europa League, and they are all vying for the trophy and an automatic spot in the 2020-21 Champions League. Sevilla, Inter Milan, and Manchester United are the three favorites, but we will see how it all plays out. ...
It’s a London Derby, but we’re not in jolly England. Instead of Chelsea and Arsenal meeting in a London suburb next week, they will be meeting on the other side of the continent. The two clubs are set to meet in Baku for the Europa League title, and a chance to add some silverware to their mantle this season. This match means more than just that for Arsenal though. While Chelsea already locked up a spot in next year’s Champions League by virtue of finishing in the top four in the Premier League, Arsenal must win the Europa League to return to the Champions League next season. ...
On Thursday, we will see which two teams are playing in the Europa League Final in Baku at the end of May. English rivals are favored to meet there after first leg results. Arsenal took care of business at home against Valencia last Thursday, while Chelsea secured a draw and scored a road goal against Eintracht Frankfurt. A clash between those two heavyweights with a Champions league spot on line would be must see entertainment and cap off a fantastic year in English soccer....
Europa League glory and a spot in next year’s Champions League is on the line this week in the first leg of the semifinals. This competition has been dominated by Spanish teams in recent years with Atletico Madrid and Sevilla combining to win six of the last nine titles. Valencia will be looking to continue that tradition, but English teams Arsenal and Chelsea are looking to use the competition to get back into the Champions League, and Eintracht Frankfurt are looking to become the first German side to win the tournament in 22 seasons. ...
One of the more intriguing qualifying groups for Euro 2020 will be Group B. Defending champions Portugal headline the group and they are heavily favored to be the No. 1 team out of qualifying. There are two major challengers for the second qualifying spot, Ukraine and Serbia. Serbia made it to the World Cup last year, while Ukraine missed out, so the Eagles are favored. We will see a lot play out on Friday and Monday though if either team manages to get a result. ...
The World Cup Final was played more than eight months ago, so that means its time to start gearing up for another major international tournament. Euro 2020 is a little over a year away, and teams will spend the next year vying to be one of the 24 teams to take part in the event. Qualifying starts this Thursday, and one of the biggest matches involves two quarterfinalists from the 2018 World Cup, Belgium and Russia....
While many soccer clubs across Europe were cursing their luck when the Europa League draw was announced, the two English clubs left in the competition certainly weren’t. Chelsea and Arsenal both received dream draws, and they are massive favorites to advance to the Europa League Round of 16. Other heavyweights like Inter Milan and Napoli also received great draws, and they are expected to advance. However, weird things happen in the Europa League as many of the more established clubs feel the li...
