Liverpool, West Ham and Brighton will all have their attentions firmly fixed on the Europa League draw this afternoon.
With the play-off rounds now completed, the serious business has arrived and Liverpool are unsurprisingly the favourites to go all the way in the competition and lift the trophy in Dublin in May.
After six straight seasons in the Champions League, it is the Reds’ first time back in the Europa League since they finished as runners-up to Sevilla in 2016.
West Ham find themselves in Pot 1 for the draw after winning the Europa Conference League last season and earning automatic qualification into this competition as a result, while Brighton have European fixtures to look forward to for the first time in the club’s history.
