The UEFA Europa League is a prestigious annual football tournament that has been held since 1971. It was initially known as the UEFA Cup and was rebranded as the UEFA Europa League in 2009 to increase its profile and prestige. The competition involves 48 teams from across Europe who compete in a group stage, followed by a knockout stage, for the chance to win European silverware. The format of the UEFA Europa League is straightforward. In the group stage, 32 qualified teams are divided into eight groups of four teams each, with the top two sides in each group progressing to the knockout stages. Group winners automatically qualify for the Round of 16, while runners-up compete in playoffs against teams that finished third in their UEFA Champions League groups. Teams that finish third in their Europa League group go into a playoff round to enter the UEFA Europa Conference League. The teams that finish bottom of the group are out of European competition for the rest of the season.
