It was an unexpected season where top clubs like Leverkusen, Liverpool, Milan or Roma went home without winning the title and instead it was an underdog team like Atalanta who managed to win the European League title for this season. I'm curious what will happen next season considering there will be new entrants coming from various parts of the European competition.
Of the four top teams that I mentioned, only Roma will return to the European league and the rest will compete on the bigger stage of the Champions League. Is it possible that the underdog team will surprise again next season? remembering that everything is possible after seeing Atalanta this season and of course we won't see Sevilla either because they were knocked out last season and in the domestic league they finished in the bottom position.

Indeed, I am aware of that as well. The period when Liverpool/Leverkusen were widely expected to win the competition by so many members here but this was not even coming true. But these forecasts were not even coming to pass as Roma turned into the dark horse too but this club has ended on leverkusen's hand. I never saw Atalanta as the favorite to win the match but it was slowly but surely climbing up with perfect result. It looks like this is exclusive to the Europa League. With the manner the victor of the Europa League has always changed at this time compared to the UCL. UCL is far easier to predict than this league. It's not like UCL which will always be controlled by the best team like Real Madrid, which utterly dominated UCL by winning more trophies than any other club. In terms of precisely projecting which team will win the championship, the Europa League is on a different level considering how difficult to predict which team that would be winning the competition.
One team may always be expected another underdog to take home the Europa League trophy in the upcoming season. In contrast, the most costly club has been controlling UCL. Because the Europa League has produced so many surprises, watching it is now far more appealing for me to see that. This is my honest view to the europa league considering how competitive it is. .
