Europa League Tips & Predictions

The Europa League is Europe’s second largest tournament, and here at the MansionBet Blog our team of expert writers keep you up to date with the latest betting tips and previews.

The introduction of the Europa Conference League has meant that the number of teams taking part in the Europa League has been significantly reduced with effect from the 2021/22 season. This means that the Europa League will focus primarily on the group stages and features a large proportion of teams eliminated from the Champions League.

Team up with MansionBet and make every shot count with the best Europa League previews and predictions.
