Here I agree about this UEFA is event of the surprises and shocking results with things can go either way in any game and favourite teams can also lose their way to have final spot or title as well because it's all beauty of this event and in this season in early matches mostly were expecting Liverpool and Bayer Leverkusen can win, but we can have any team as winner which will give his best on game day now today we will have draws which will give better shape how things will be gone in coming matches and can any team from Champions League bring changes in this favourite list.
With most chances still we will have Bayer Leverkusen and Liverpool into last rounds but not guaranteed about winner with from the last four any team can go through for the win it's all about strategy and performance on the match day game.
I agree because I have seen in the last few seasons that in the Europa League there have been lots of surprises, the closest example is last season when Arsenal were very favorites but in fact they had to be eliminated first in a surprising way.
Likewise for Leverkusen and Liverpool at the moment, these two teams do have quite strong strengths compared to other teams, but what you have to remember is that this is the Europa League competition, anything is very possible to happen with the journey still being very long this season, and I hope that surprise happens again this season.
One possibility why there are so many surprises here is because the bunos are too small for the elite clubs who come from europe top five leagues. That is why some clubs sometimes prioritize their local league, because it offers many things at once, and the opportunities are more realistic by adapting to their conditions there.
Indeed, in terms of prestige, the European League sounds very prestigious, especially as it offers a ticket to UCL if you succeed in becoming champion. Several teams that have difficulty finishing in the top four of their local standings will be more ambitious in targeting trophies, because that is the final way for them to appear in the UCL.
Liverpool and Laverkusen are the two clubs that are favorites early, I agree they also have the chance of being eliminated early, because there is no guarantee they can make it to the final. but first, we will see who made it through the play off round, to add a few more teams to the favorites list.
