UEFA Europa League 2026/27 Season

[Varnquister]

After narrowly being eliminated by Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League, Thun continues its European league. Thun managed to win the first match 3-0 against its opponent, Vikingur. Despite having about three times as many shots as their opponent, they were able to score three goals. The match ended 2-0 at halftime, and in the second half, they extended their lead to 3-0 with a goal in the final minute—a goal that likely secured their advancement to the next round. Thun is already the favorite against their opponent in this round. They had put in a performance that nearly saw them eliminate Dinamo Zagreb, but it wasn’t to be.

First of all, I'd like to congratulate Beşiktaş on this victory. Even though they were reduced to 10 men, they still managed to win. Under normal circumstances, I would have expected a much more comfortable victory for Beşiktaş, but this time things turned out differently because their opponents simply aren't a team at Beşiktaş's level.

Beşiktaş will most likely secure another win at home next week and advance to the next qualifying round. From there, I hope they will go on to qualify for the group stage. Based on the football they've been playing, I believe they have what it takes to reach the group stage.

Besiktas is really struggling a lot and they have been in the round before and now,still a big win for them with 10 men and they continue to go ahead. Besiktas is showing real power in hard matches for them and always in the important moments they come on top. I think they need a few more good players to get this team going well. In the second leg they will be playing at home and i think they should win a lot easier. For Besiktas it would be good if they could get some players for the other part of the season. They are really close with this win to going into the group stage.

Besiktas struggled in this game but generally, things are not too bad. This game was just a bad game but still they managed to win. Beşiktaş’s play is maturing with every match, but they still need a bit more time. With a new manager, a new approach and new players, there’s bound to be a transition period, but Beşiktaş are on the right track. I really liked the way the manager switched to a two-striker formation after being reduced to ten men. Beşiktaş could do well in the Europa League.

Who would have said that we would watch Salah at Trabzonspor as of now?    He is officially a player of them now for 2 years.



So this means that we are going to watch one of the superstars of football history in the Europa League this year. League phase isn't guaranteed for them yet though.

But if he is registered for the squad of playoff round then I expect Trabzonspor to reach league phase no matter they face Ferencvaros or Gornik Zabrze first. They are much stronger than both technically.

He is definitely going to be Trabzonspor's best player. If he can join the team in the playoffs, maybe the playoffs will not be too difficult for Trabzonspor, as a team they are quite strong, the opponent may not have the ability to beat them, especially after Salah's addition.

If I talk about this whole tournament, then even after Salah's addition, I don't consider them favorites, although they have not yet qualified for the UEFA Europa League. Even if they do, they are not favorites for the title. AC Milan and Juventus are in this league, so they can be considered favorites for now.

It is of course too much to expect Trabzonspor to be one of the favourites just because they signed Salah. He isn't even in his prime anymore considering his age which is 34 as well.

AC Milan and Juventus are in this league, so they can be considered favorites for now.

I think there are some other teams who are more favoured than these 2 teams. Before anything else English teams have been very dominant in the recent years. By the way Milan don't look good in friendlies so far.

A really challenging season might be waiting for Milan fans.

It doesn't work that way, whether Salah is registered and will play in the playoffs rounds or not for Trabzonspor or not there is no guarantee place for them in Europe. What you should know is that no single individual makes up a team. Football is a collective sport. Which means that it takes the effort and quality of each individual player to securing results, as far as football is concerned. We should not expect much from this team from Turkey because Salah now plays for them. This team has been a average team which has always struggled to making it to the ground stages of Europe football competitions in the past, and that view about them should not change automatically simply because a big player is now at the club.


I expected that Salah would have gone to the money spinning league of Saudi Arabia, which players of his age range usually goes to. In terms of making money the Saudi league is the best but, every one has their choice and him picking up a club right in Europe in a league that, is not too fancy is all his personal decision and should be respected. But I know that many fans are actually shocked about this decision coming from Salah.

In the last two years, yes, England was indeed dominant, but overall it is pretty even. Sevilla is the biggest reason why the distribution is skewed.

Benfica messed up in the league tonight, but I still see them as one of the top favorites. Juventus and Milan are both hard to assess right now, since not too many changes have been made, but the transfer period is still ongoing. I think they could still be good enough to be serious competitors in the Europa League. If they qualified for the Champions League, I don't think they would have made it very far. They are just not on that level at the moment.

I was on my lucky day last week as the picks of mine I shared last week all won. Let's see what I can do for this week...

- Beşiktaş to score over 1.5 @1.41

- Rangers to win @1.55

- Anderlecht to score over 0.5 @1.32

Total odds we have here is 2.88.

This time it was harder to make my choices. I think Beşiktaş will be more dominant at home against their weak opponent.

Rangers surprised me by that loss in the 1st leg but I think they will make up for it. Lastly Anderlecht should be able to score again this time at home.
