THE Europa League is back with a bang for 2020/21.
A total of 48 teams go into the hat for the group stage draw, with sides from all over Europe dreaming of reaching the final in Gdansk.
Five British teams are in the hat, with Leicester, Arsenal, Tottenham, Celtic and Rangers all eager to see who they draw.
When is the Europa League group stage draw?
- The draw will be held on Friday, October 2.
- It takes place in Nyon, Switzerland at Uefa’s HQ – but is behind-closed-doors and without an audience due to the ongoing pandemic.
- Things get underway at midday BST.
Which TV channel and live stream can I watch it on?
You can catch the draw in full on BT Sport 1 here in the UK.
BT customers can also download the app to stream wherever they are.
If you’re not a BT subscriber, Uefa will be streaming the draw live on their official website.
Here on SunSport we’ll also be running a dedicated live blog so you don’t miss any of the ties as they come out of the hat.
