Formerly known as the UEFA Cup, the Europa League brings together some of Europe's best teams, all of whom qualified due to their success last season. Sevilla won the Europa League last season but start this new term in the Champions League. The format of the competition has seen some changes in recent seasons due to the introduction of the Europa Conference League.

The format of this competition begins with a qualifying round of two-legged matches. The winners join the clubs already qualified for the group stages. As in the other two European competitions, there are eight groups of four who plate each other once home and away. The eight group winners go straight into the last 16. Those finishing second go into the Knockout play-off round with the eight teams finishing third in their Champions League group.

The eight clubs finishing third in their group are moved into the Europa Conference League Knockout play-off round. The winners of the Europa League Knockout play-off round (played over two legs) join the eight group winners in the last 16. Then it's the last 16, quarter finals and semi-finals (all two-legged ties) to determine who goes into the one-off finale that this season is being played in Dublin, Ireland. The winners go into the group stages of the 2024-25 Champions League, unless already qualified. Who will be the Europa League winners in 2023-2024?
