Europa League 24/25

Ajax-Panathinaikos

Currently 12-12 on penalties. Both teams have missed 4 as well.

edit: Ajax nick it 13-12 those bastards.
 
In the 15 seasons since 2010:
Number of times finished in the top 6

Look at the TOTAL column on the left
14 13 13 13 13 12 for the big six, everyone else negligible


Yep, that's why it's fudging hilarious to watch pundit predictions that vary the top 6 (the amount last season as example that said we would finish 8th -10th)

The overlay map on spend in the last 15 years probably looks like a 1:1 match

Looks like some teams that lost in the third CL qualifying round like Fenerbache and Rangers have gone straight into the EL group stage, but others had to go through the playoff round. 🙃 I think this is about right.

There's a massive difference in the highest and lowest ranked teams in each pot. Elfsborg started as unseeded in the first qualifying round. I'd much prefer them and Riga to Bilbao and Besiktas in terms of quality and travel distance.

Pot 1:

Roma, Man Utd, Porto, Ajax, Rangers, Eintracht Frankfurt, Lazio, Tottenham, Slavia Praha

Pot 2:

Real Sociedad, AZ Alkmaar, Braga, Olympiakos, Lyon, PAOK, Fenerbache, Maccabi Tel-Aviv, Ferencvaros

Pot 3:

Qarabag, Galatasaray, Viktoria Plzen, Bodø/Glimt, Union Saint-Gilloise, Dynamo Kiev, Ludogorets Razgrad, FC Midtjylland, Malmø

Pot 4:

Athletic Bilbao, Hoffenheim, Nice, Anderlecht, Twente, Besiktas, FCSB, RFS Riga, Elfsborg

Yeah...there's no point playing Bilbao when we'll be going there in May anyway. 😎
