Aston Villa, AS Roma​

Despite a poor start to the season in the PL (18th place), Aston Villa remains one of the main favorites for the final victory in the Europa League. Thanks to its financial resources, but also because it has the Europa League specialist on its bench.

Winner of four Europa Leagues, Unaï Emery will pass on all his expertise to his team. In a Premier League that has significantly strengthened, the Europa League could be a simpler ticket to the Champions League for the Villans.

On the other hand, Roma, which is discovering Gian Piero Gasperini's method, can also have high hopes and rely on a coach who won the competition two years ago by defeating the invincible Bayer Leverkusen.

Real Betis, Porto, Lille​

The fourth club with the best chance of winning the competition according to Opta, Lille has an opportunity this year. Now accustomed to playing in Europe for a few seasons, the club must prove that it has grown and can take a step forward this season. The challenge will be high but not impossible?

They will still have to contend with the regulars of these competitions, starting with FC Porto. Perhaps less equipped than in previous seasons, the Dragons can still rely on an attack seasoned in European Cups.

Betis, finalist of the last Conference League, is also one to watch, with an Antony ready to perform miracles.

Feyenoord, Nottingham Forest​

Returning to European competition for the first time in 30 years, Nottingham Forest wants to make a mark. Conveniently, the winner of the last edition has just arrived on their bench: Ange Postecoglou (former Tottenham coach).

Struggling in the league, Postecoglou managed to elevate the Spurs to the title in the Europa League.

Feyenoord is also an outsider to be taken seriously, having defeated AC Milan and been honorably beaten last year in the Champions League, the Dutch club has a chance to play.

Lyon, Stuttgart, Bologna​

In theory and due to its experience in the competition, Lyon could have been ranked higher. But the somewhat limited and inexperienced squad of the Gones might push them to prioritize the league.

Stuttgart, on the other hand, can believe in its chances but will have to recover from Nick Woltemade's departure to Newcastle.

Finally, Bologna is entering its second season in Europe. After the tough learning experience in the Champions League, the Italians arrive with a desire for revenge in the Europa League.
