Europa League predictions & betting tips

The UEFA Europa League (UEL) basically stands second in line as far as European football tournaments go, only behind the UEFA Champions League (UCL). Still, the UEL carries a great deal of prestige and importance for many clubs all over Europe.

Previously known as the UEFA Cup since its foundation in 1971, it was the third-best European competition behind the UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup until the two merged in 1999, continuing as the UEFA Cup until 2009 when it was again rebranded, this time as the UEL.

Most likely winners – Four teams favoured

At the very begging of the league phase of the Europa League, Juventus were the main candidates to lift the trophy, closely followed by Bayer Leverkusen, AC Milan, Benfica, and Bournemouth.

However, the current joint-favourites with bookies are Juventus, Leverkusen, Bournemouth and Benfica.

Top scorer favourites – David and Leao in the mix

We do not have the odds for this market yet, but we can expect to see AC Milan’s Rafael Leao and Christian Pulisic among the main candidates to win Europa League’s Golden Ball, as well Juventus’ Jonathan David and Randal Kolo Muani.

Jean-Philippe Mateta, Patrik Schick, and Mikel Oyarzabal are also likely to be among the top favourites for the award.
