Europa League Winner Odds: Favourites Analysed
Tottenham @ 7/2
Tottenham were 9/2 favourites for Europa League glory when the draw for the league phase was completed and they remain at the head of the betting as 7/2 shots.
Spurs had opened with wins over Qarabag (3-0), Ferencvaros (2-1) and AZ Alkmaar (1-0), but they were brought back down to earth by Galatasaray in a 3-2 loss in Istanbul at the start of November.
And worse was to follow for Ange Postecoglou's side, who were then beaten by the previously winless Ipswich in the Premier League, ramping up the pressure on their Aussie boss.
The international break may come as some relief, but Tottenham will soon face another huge test, as their next competitive match is an away trip to Manchester City.
Roma and Rangers are Spurs' next two fixtures in the Europa League this side of Christmas, by which time we will have a truer picture of whether the Lilywhites are realistic favourites to win this competition.
Manchester United @ 11/2
Manchester United remain second favourites in the Europa League betting, but they have fallen way off the pace with four games gone.
The Red Devils have managed just one win and three draws so far, and incoming boss Ruben Amorim has his work cut out to get them into the automatic qualification spots of the top eight.
On paper, United have a relatively easy league-phase draw. However, they have made hard work of things so far, but a thumping 3-0 win over Leicester in the Premier League prior to the November international break suggested they are turning a corner.
The Old Trafford side have time to get back on track and routine-looking upcoming fixtures against Bodo Glimt and Viktoria Plzen should help in that regard.
Athletic Bilbao @ 9/1
Athletic Bilbao have made a strong start to the league phase, winning three and drawing their other fixture, but they have been eased to 9/1 from 8/1 to secure European silverware.
It's hard to see why their odds have lengthened, as an impressive 1-1 draw at Roma was followed by comfortable wins over AZ Alkmaar, Slavia Prague and Ludogorets.
Ernesto Valverde's side are also nicely placed in sixth spot in La Liga and their impressive form has seen them lose just one of their last 13 matches in all competitions.
Bilbao will face Elfsborg and Fenerbahce in this tournament before Christmas, by which time the Spanish side could easily have improved on sixth spot in the Europa League standings.
Lazio @ 9/1
Lazio have made a flying start to the league phase, and they lead the table following four wins from four in their opening fixtures.
Marco Baroni's side have also performed well in Serie A and they are starting to look like a dangerous outfit.
The Romans have conquered some dangerous teams on their way to top spot, with Dynamo Kyiv, Nice, FC Twente and Porto all given short shrift by Baroni's boys.
A home tie against Ludogorets should see another three-point return by the end of November before a mouthwatering trip to Ajax in mid December.
