History

The UEFA Europa League is a major European competition which was formerly called the UEFA Cup. It was founded in 1955 and 1972 in its current format. In 1999, the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup was scrapped and merged with the UEFA Cup. And in the 2004-05 season, a group stage round was added to the competition prior to the knockout phases, thereby producing an enlarged competition format. The competition took up the name “Europa League" for branding purposes. It is the second most prestigious competition for football clubs in Europe after the Champions League. The competition is designed for teams that didn't qualify for the CL. The tournament presents a rare opportunity for teams who didn't qualify for the biggest events. The whole idea of the Europa League is to ensure that teams stay relevant in Europe even if they’ve finished slightly below the Champions League places in their domestic standings.

UEFA Europa League - How it Works

The current format of the Europa League involves a number of preliminary and qualifying rounds prior to the group stage.

The third qualifying round is followed by a play-off round, and by this time, the total number of teams is then reduced to 32 teams, who are split into right groups of four teams. The teams representing the top leagues will automatically qualify for this stage, while others must fight to get this far.

In the Europa League group stage, the four teams play each other twice, home and away, and the team that finishes top advances to the Round of 16. The teams who finish second advance to the newly created knockout round play-offs, which sees these teams play the teams who finish third in their UEFA Champions League groups.

The competition then simply becomes a traditional knock out tournament, including a Round of 16, quarter-finals, semi-finals, and final, all of which are two legs apart from the final, which is a one-off game where a team will be crowned Europa League winners.

The UEFA Europa League final is, without doubt, one of the biggest matches in the football calendar, and interest in Europa League final tickets is therefore, unsurprisingly, very high.

Often, fans of the two teams who get that far will find out that the ticket allocation made available to their team is very low, with UEFA usually reserving a large portion of the overall capacity to neutrals and corporate visitors.

This is where we at SeatPick come in, offering real football fans the chance to see their team in action in one of the biggest nights in the respective club's history.

Eligibility and qualification

The journey to the UEFA Europa League final starts with some qualifying and knockout rounds. The qualifying rounds consist of five rounds (preliminary, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and a Playoff round). After the completion of the qualifying rounds, the group stages follow. The group stages consist of a total of 48 teams separated into 12 groups of 4 teams. All the teams that finish 3rd in the Champions League group stages (8 teams in total), will qualify automatically for the Europa League round of 32, where they will join the 24 teams that have qualified from the Europa League group stages. Finally, the knockout stages and the final will follow.
