We are going to see a different champion this season 100% because of Sevilla's not making it here at least. This is good news to me though while respecting Sevilla's outstanding number of titles in the recent 10 years here. Maybe it is time for Mourinho to do this work with Roma this year. They were so close in the last one but lost the chance to Sevilla.
But there are huge threats such as Leverkusen and Liverpool. With the current strength of their squad and inconsistencies I don't know whether Roma can repeat the same level of achievement at least.
They might need luck on their side a little on draws as of now maybe.
AS Roma must be able to reach the final again and lift the trophy. Last season they failed because they lost to Sevilla, so now when Sevilla is not there, AS Roma can indeed be more grateful. But the problem is that this season there are much stronger enemies like Liverpool. And I think Liverpool is also aiming to win the European League title this season. And another challenge also emerged from a club from the same league, namely AC Milan, which also joined the playoffs after failing in the UCL. I think Mourinho's task this season has become much more difficult. Because for me AS Roma's toughest challenges in the European League this season are Liverpool and AC Milan.But there are huge threats such as Leverkusen and Liverpool.

However, considering that As Roma's recent performance has been inconsistent, I think it will be very difficult to qualify for the Europa League final, considering that other teams such as Liverpool and AC Milan are indeed very strong clubs with an impressive history of achievements.
but Jose Mourinho has a reputation as a successful manager at European level, and expectations for him at AS Roma may be higher. I'm sure Mourinho is capable of fighting tough opponents like Liverpool and AC Milan. Mourinho must be able to optimize the potential of his squad, improve team performance and have an effective strategy against tough opponents.
But don't forget Bayer Leverkusen, this team is in good form so it could be a surprise
