What are the chances that an English side wins the Europa League? Learn the odds for each Premier League team to win the competition at the end of the season!
The Europa League is Europe’s second-most prestigious club football cup competition, only bettered by the Champions League. A tournament with a rich history, it offers great entertainment value for spectators around the world.
With the last two seasons seeing English teams win the competition after Tottenham’s victory in 2025 and Aston Villa’s triumph in 2026, the question has to be asked: can a Premier League side win the Europa League for the third year in a row?
The 2026/27 Europa League features three English sides in the competition, with each having their own strengths and qualities that make them strong contenders to become this season’s winner. So, to get a better idea of where each Premier League side stands, let’s delve into each team’s Europa League odds!
Europa League odds for Premier League teams
With three English sides competing in the 2026/27 Europa League – Bournemouth, Crystal Palace, and Sunderland – it’s reasonable to suggest that one may end up winning the competition this time around. The following section will run through their chances and explain why they’re up there with the leading contenders:
Bournemouth Europa League odds
The Cherries have qualified for European football for the first time in their history after putting together a tremendous Premier League campaign in the 2025/26 season, in which they finished sixth.
Despite it being their debut in the competition, Bournemouth 10/1 have a strong chance of winning the competition and are right up there with the favourites.
With the newly appointed Marco Rose at the helm, they have a more than capable manager to lead them to victory. The German coach already has an abundance of European experience, having previously managed the likes of RB Leipzig, Borussia Dortmund, Borussia Monchengladbach, and RB Salzburg in the Champions League and Europa League.
Looking at their squad, they also have a mix of young talent – like Brazilian attacker Rayan and Frenchman Junior Kroupi – and players with European experience that could combine to boost their hopes of European glory.

Crystal Palace Europa League odds
After Crystal Palace became champions of the Europa Conference League in the 2025/26 season, they’ll be looking to win a second European trophy in two seasons.
Despite the departure of Oliver Glasner, the Eagles 11/1 are another side among the leading candidates to win the competition by the end of the 2026/27 campaign.
As many members of Palace’s squad now have European experience, having played in and won the Conference League last season, they definitely have a strong case to win the competition this year. Reinforcing the squad with the likes of Ben Chilwell (Champions League winner with Chelsea) and Axel Disasi (Conference League winner with Chelsea) also means they’ve brought in the necessary experience to get over the line.

Sunderland Europa League odds
The meteoric rise of Sunderland in the last few seasons has been spectacular to watch, but can they continue this progress in the Europa League? They may have been in the Championship as recently as the 2024/25 season, yet their successful return to the Premier League saw them grab a spot in Europe on the final day.
The Black Cats 11/1 are yet another team with a strong chance to win the Europa League and have some of the shortest odds in the competition.
Although this is Sunderland’s debut season in the competition, their squad has got an impressive amount of experience throughout. Holding on to the likes of Granit Xhaka and bringing in a Europa League winner such as Kevin Danso to reinforce the squad only boosts their chances of success.

Can a Premier League team lift the Europa League again?
Though there are still other top-level teams in the competition that have more European heritage than Bournemouth, Crystal Palace, and Sunderland, Premier League teams are once again among those favoured to win the Europa League this season.
As mentioned before, English sides have seen much success recently in the Europa League, and a third consecutive win could start an era of Premier League dominance in the competition. With Aston Villa comfortably winning 3-0 in the 2025/26 final and both Tottenham and Man United contesting the final in the 2024/25 campaign, English sides have definitely been some of the strongest to feature in the competition’s recent editions.
