Much like the Champions League, the group stages of the Europa League return just months after the final in Germany. With Sevilla's involvement in Europe's top competition, there is a great chance we will see another team lift the trophy this season.

Sevilla, a 14/1 winning tip in Sporting Life's preview last season, have made this competition their own but they have a favourable Champions League group which should mean progression from that instead of the third place finish which directs you into this tournament.

It genuinely feels a very open Europa League this season. The competitive nature of top leagues around Europe means that some great teams have to settle for the continent's second competition and many will view it as a great opportunity to pick up serious silverware.

The two North London clubs take favouritism, with the bookmakers expecting Arsenal and Tottenham to battle it out for the trophy. Both have a great chance of winning the whole thing, but it's debating which team represents better value with the Gunners more fancied at 7/1 compared to Spurs' 8/1.

Arsenal have been hugely impressive under Mikel Arteta and the expectation will perhaps be on them more than their biggest rivals. For Tottenham, we can't look past them having serial winner Jose Mourinho at the helm and the impressive transfer window they had as they look to improve upon last season's disappointment.

available to them this season. At 8/1, they seem a good bet to go the distance in the Europa League.
