Outrights Preview
In a Different Mode - Arsenal FC - England
When talking about the list of teams who could make a run and win the whole Europa league, Arsenal is currently listed as the number one most likely team.
Although the competition has many stages and even making it to the playoffs isn’t guaranteed, the Gunners are in great form and look to be a top four team within the Premier League.
The transition to midweek games in Europe will not be the highest priority for Mikel Arteta’s men, but if they make it past the opening stages there will certainly be firepower thrown in to win the competition.
Arsenal are the deepest team without a doubt in the UEL this year and although top four is a bigger priority, watch out for the Gunners to lay the wood down.
Jose Mourinho Reinvigorated - Roma FC - Italy
The Champions of the UEFA Conference League are back for a taste of the Europa League.
Roma have been a quietly decent squad in Italy for the past two years and it seems like Jose Mourinho has his hands on something special.
Key signing Tammy Abraham was huge for the club last season and looks to replicate his performances this year.
The squad is filled with talent and the youngsters that are currently in the rotation are sought after by many big clubs.
Mourinho knows what it takes to win a European competition, as he’s won several of them over many years in his career.
The Europa League is a step up in competition, but that shouldn’t phase the club from the Eternal City.
Consistency in the Spanish Countryside - Real Sociedad - Spain
Real Sociedad are a top club in the region of Spain and have shown their worth over the past five seasons, handling most top clubs with respect.
Alexander Isaak is their star striker and is garnering attention from most top clubs at the moment, something that Sociedad will monitor as time passes.
The team is heavy on attack and has created many chances against European competition these past few seasons.
Sociedad usually always makes it out of the group stage in these competitions and expect nothing different this time around.
The squad will be loaded for a second straight year and there are definite hopefuls in the camp.
Look for Sociedad to make the knockouts and put on the pressure against any team they are tasked with facing!
