The UEFA Europa League knockout stage is underway as 16 teams fight for the trophy, a spot in the Champions League next season and the UEFA Super Cup.

The Europa League is the second tier club competition from UEFA featuring teams such as Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, AS Roma, Ajax and more. For the two Premier League sides in the competition, the Europa League represents an opportunity to salvage what have been overwhelmingly disappointing league campaigns.

Here's a look at the Europa League bracket.

While most fans predict an all-Premier League final, it's never that simple in the Europa League. In the last 10 competitions, England clubs only won the competition twice. Spanish teams has dominated winning six. The most recent winner, Atalanta, was pulled off a massive upset in the final last year defeating the invincible Bayer Leverkusen side.

Unlike the Champions League where teams play across Tuesday and Wednesday, all Europa League games take place on Thursdays.
