sportsmole.co.uk, 18 September 2024, 09:14

The 2024-25 Europa League league phase will get underway on September 25 and then conclude on January 30, with 36 teams participating in the new-look format.

Each team will play eight games against different opponents - four at home and four away - with all of the sides then being ranked in one group to determine whether they will advance to the next stage.

The total number of matches in the league phase will therefore rise to 144, up from 96 in the previous format, and Manchester United are among the favourites to challenge for the trophy this season.

Here, Sports Mole provides the Europa League fixtures, draw dates and the knockout rounds for the new-look competition, which should bring plenty of drama.
