For first match of League phase i can considers the match between Roma vs Bilbao is a big match this because the performance of both teams last season were very impressive and just like we know Bilbao has successfully to being an Copa Del Rey champion and they also can finish at 5th place on Laliga and for Roma although they still unable to in form in Serie A i think i still considers Roma as strong contender for the title in this competition
Both teams were never met in the real tournament so this is their first time to met in Europa League and this is home match for Roma and i am sure they will attempts to gets the winning result from this match but i have to says the outcomes of this match is hard to predicted because both teams is equally strong
In addition, Roma also has quite good preparation and Bilbao can be tough challenger for several team in competing for the championship title, but in this first match it will take place at the Stadio Olimpico which is Roma home ground so there is possibility for Roma to be superior by making it easier for them to win.
I still consider Roma to be one of the strong team for the Europa League and they will be able to be one of the team that will compete for the title in the 2024/25 Europa League.
But for the 2024/25 edition there are many big and strong team that will compete, this makes the Europa League much more memorable than before.
