By Jamie Spencer Bayer Leverkusen and Atalanta will go head to head in this season's Europa League final at Dublin's Aviva Stadium on 22 May. Although they won 4-2 on aggregate to qualify for a first European final since Real Madrid beat them with that Zinedine Zidane volley at Hampden Park in the Champions League 22 years ago, Leverkusen nearly saw their undefeated season go up in smoke in their 49th game of 2023/24. Xabi Alonso's high-flying side have already wrapped up the Bundesliga title and will soon also contest the DFB-Pokal final against Kaiserslautern three days after the Europa Leag...

By Ewan Murray Bayer Leverkusen will look to book their spot in the Europa League final and maintain their unbeaten record on Thursday night when they face Roma in the second leg of their semi-final. Xabi Alonso's side have already been crowned Bundesliga champions this season and find themselves in the DFB Pokal final without losing a single match. They are still on course for a historic treble and boast a 2-0 lead from the first leg in Rome last week thanks to goals from Florian Wirtz and Robert Andrich. Roma have seen a dramatic upturn in form since Jose Mourinho was replaced by Daniele De ...

By James Cormack Thursday nights...ARE EUROPA NIGHTS! The final Thursday of 2023/24 European action awaits as eight teams bid to book their places in the Europa League and Europa Conference League finals. The semi-final second legs are bound to supply chaos across the board, although Bayer Leverkusen's victory in Rome has set them up for a rather comfortable progression into the Europa League final during their historical season. Over in the Conference, it was goals galore in the first legs with Fiorentina aiming to return to the competition's showpiece event having been beaten in the final by...

By Jack Gallagher We're into the business end of all three European cup competitions this season, with semi-finals in the Champions League, Europa League and Europa Conference League kicking off this week. There's plenty of top talent turning out for the UEFA Champions League semi-finalists, but bar a small list, there aren't many players that one can expect to be available on the transfer market in the summer. That's where the Europa League comes in. The Europa League semi-finalists are almost exclusively filled with players who could be on the move. Here's who may end up in the Premier Leagu...

By James Cormack Bayer Leverkusen are out for revenge as they take on Roma in the 2023/24 Europa League semi-finals. Xabi Alonso succumbed to former boss Jose Mourinho at this stage of the competition last season, with Roma grinding out a 1-0 aggregate victory before losing to Sevilla in the final. Alonso's Leverkusen have matured and developed exponentially since that defeat, with the German side, who remain unbeaten across all competitions this term, already wrapping up the Bundesliga title. Germany's supreme force overcame a tricky challenge in West Ham United to advance into the last four ...

By James Cormack Woah, woah, woah. Hang on a minute, this can't be right. Where are Liverpool? It's got to be some mistake, right? Is Liverpool just 'Atalanta' in Italian? No?! But Reds success in Dublin was inevitable, wasn't it? Liverpool's absence from the Europa League semi-finals certainly would've been hard to believe when the quarter-final draw was made, but Atalanta's stirring performance at Anfield set Gian Piero Gasperini's side up for their most memorable continental triumphs. As is the case with the Champions League, there are no English representatives among the Europa League's fi...

By James Cormack Dublin will be the scene of the Europa League final in 2024 having hosted the competition's showpiece event 13 years before. Andre Villas-Boas continued his Jose Mourinho trajectory by leading Porto to Europa League glory over domestic rivals Braga in 2011, with the hotshot Portuguese coach seeing his reputation soar in the aftermath. The 2024 final will be bereft of Portuguese influence and there's a strong possibility a new winner of the competition is crowned in May. Tickets for the 2024 Europa League final are set to be in high demand and here's how you can go about securi...

By Jamie Spencer Jurgen Klopp will not get the chance to finish his Liverpool career with a European trophy next month following elimination from the Europa League at the quarter-final stage. Liverpool managed to beat Atalanta in Bergamo on Thursday night, but a 3-0 aggregate deficit coming into the second leg meant that a solitary Mohamed Salah penalty was not enough to change things or mount a 2019-esque comeback as had so famously happened against Barcelona. Ultimately, it was a bit of a damp end for Liverpool's European campaign, threatening to do more than just 'blow the bloody doors off'...

By Tom Gott Liverpool's hopes of a perfect send-off for manager Jurgen Klopp took another blow on Thursday as they crashed out of the Europa League. A shocking 3-0 defeat at home to Atalanta in the first leg meant a 1-0 triumph in the return fixture was nowhere near enough for Liverpool, whose miserable April continues with a victory that still feels like a defeat. Here are three things to learn from the game. Injuries & fatigue start to take their tollWere Liverpool actually bad against Atalanta? No, not really, but there's clearly something wrong with the squad, and that's likely down to fat...

By Jamie Spencer Liverpool began this season as favourites to win the Europa League, but that dream came to an end in the quarter-finals on Thursday night. The Reds might have won 1-0 against Atalanta in Italy, but the Serie A side had already done the damage with a 3-0 margin of victory in the first leg at Anfield a week earlier. Mohamed Salah's early penalty gave Liverpool the perfect start and hope of mounting a comeback. But that was ultimately as good as it got for Jurgen Klopp's team, who lacked the energy and fight to match Atalanta's superior determination. Using 90min's player ratings...
