Europa League Leading Contenders

As with the Champions League, the leading contenders generally come from the established powerhouse soccer leagues of Spain’s La Liga, the English Premier League, the German Bundesliga and Serie A of Italy.

However, unlike the Champions League, where the same six or seven clubs tend to dominate, there is a greater variety of teams challenge for the trophy.

The competition has been made more attractive in recent years, with Champions League qualification for the team that wins the Europa League providing a huge incentive.

Europa League Betting Strategies

With regards to the outright winner betting on the Europa League odds, there is really little sense in placing any bets before the tournament reaches the knockout phase, at which point the 24 qualifiers from the Europa League group stage are joined by eight third-placed teams from Champions’ League group stage.

On an individual game basis, it’s always worth looking at the state of play in terms of qualification at the group stage, as some coaches will field weakened teams once qualification is either already assured or once it becomes impossible to achieve.

As always, team news with regards to injuries and suspensions to key players should always be taken into account.

Another factor to consider is that some of the smaller clubs who make an impression and progress from the Group stage can also see their best players transferred to bigger clubs in the January transfer window.
