Elsewhere, Roma and Porto will lock horns in the biggest derby of the UEFA Europa League play-offs

After the UEFA Champions League draw, the second-tier competition of European football, the UEFA Europa League was up. Even though the draw did not include many top-notch crews as in the UCL, the fans will still be able to enjoy great football and one fantastic derby, as Roma and Porto will face each other already in the play-offs.

Victor Osimhen's Galatasaray will play the Dutch AZ Alkmaar, while Jose Mourinho and his Fenerbahce will cross swords with the Belgian Anderlecht. Former European champions Ajax will also travel to Belgium to face Union Saint-Gilloise, while the only La Liga side in the play-offs, Real Sociedad are set to lock horns with the Danish Midtjylland.

The Premier League giants, Man United and Tottenham, qualified directly for the Round of 16 where they will play against either the winner of the AZ Alkmaar-Galatasaray clash or the winner of the duel between Midtjylland and Sociedad. Either way, once the knockout phase begins, fun and excitement are guaranteed!
