European football's second-tier competition is no less exciting than its Champions League bigger brother with some of the best the continent has to offer battling it out for silverware each year.

Previously the Uefa Cup, the Europa League sees teams qualify either via their domestic league the previous season or by finishing third in their Champions League group before dropping into the tournament's knockout stages.

Sevilla are record holders with six wins, the most recent of which coming in 2020 with victory over Inter Milan in the final.

English teams have traditionally performed well with Liverpool (3), Tottenham (2) and Chelsea (2) all previous winners.
