Europa League fantasy football has provided controversy and entertainment. The competition has hosted many teams that typically play in the Champions League. However, two teams that sit toward the lower end of the Premier League table are now favourites to win the trophy outright.
Is there more to the story, though? And who are you picking to be on your fantasy football team when you must make the decision?

1.Nikita Haikin (Bodo/Glimt)
Haikin has likely been the goalkeeper of the tournament. Sure, Spurs were able to put three goals past him in the first leg. However, Bodo/Glimt has been known to cause an upset, and Haikin is an excellent keeper that you can have on your team right away.
2. Patrick Dorgu (Manchester United)
Dorgu’s still adapting to life in the Premier League after his transfer from Lecce to Manchester United in the winter. In the UEL, however, he’s played well.
Manchester United have a three-goal lead going into the second leg. The team knows that victory in the UEL will mean automatic qualification for the Champions League. Dorgu will be one of the players who can seal it for the team. Great choice for your fantasy football selection!
3. Julen Agirrezabala (Athletic Bilbao)
Basque clubs are known to produce great players at a frighteningly fast rate. Julen Agirrezabala is the latest in a long list. The 24-year-old has been given more playing this season, and will look to impress against Manchester United’s forwards.
4. Rasmus Hojlund (Manchester United)
Hojlund hasn’t always been reliable this year. However, the overall consensus is that given a good chance, the striker can still score goals when it matters. The Danish forward is likely to get a few of those against Athletic Club. Will he be on your team?
5. Brennan Johnson (Tottenham)
Brenan Johnson is one of Tottenham’s best transfers in a long time. This has, however, been overlooked due to the team’s disappointing season. No matter! In this UEL, the attacking midfielder can help write history for Spurs.
