It may only be the UEFA Champions League’s baby brother, but there is still plenty to look forward to during the first round of Europa League fixtures this Thursday.
It’s a particularly exciting year for the British clubs in the competition: Liverpool are searching for one of the few trophies they haven’t won under Jurgen Klopp, Brighton & Hove Albion are embarking on their maiden European campaign, West Ham United are fresh from Europa Conference League glory and Rangers are looking to go a step further than they did two seasons ago when they reached the final.
It may all end in Dublin next…
