Barcelona became the bookmaker’s favorite in the Europa League

The return playoffs of the Europa League playoffs took place on Thursday. In the major clash, Barcelona, after a 1:1 draw at home, easily dealt with Napoli on the road (4:2).

After being eliminated from the Champions League, the Catalans were listed as the main favourites of the Europa League, along with Borussia Dortmund (coefficient 8), but after losing to the Neapolitans, the Blaugrana dropped to third place in the list of main contenders, and the coefficient rose to 10.
