The time has come to focus on Matchday 2 of the 2024-25 UEFA Europa League, which takes the competition to a new level with the league format already settling in.
On Thursday, all teams involved in the tournament will try to add to their points tally and start to create gaps between their rivals. Clubs such as Ajax, Tottenham, Lazio, and Lyon could keep themselves among the top teams with wins this week, but they must show their best form to keep the good times rolling.
Meanwhile, other such as Manchester United, Roma, Porto, and Besiktas will try to shift the tides in their favor following a complicated debut, where none of them were able to win their first matches. Manchester United's case will be quite complicated, as they are also struggling in the Premier League and one more loss here could prompt changes within the club.
Unlike Matchday 1, this round will be held as usual, with all fixtures taking place on the same day with two different kickoff times.

Top games to watch
The competition will kick off with a clash between the Hungarian champions and one of the top contenders to win the UEFA Europa League. Spurs get to this match on a high following their win against Manchester United, while the Hungarian side knows nothing but wins in their domestic tournament, although their first match in the continental competition ended in a loss against Anderlecht. This will be the first game ever between these teams, but Tottenham's coach will try to win a third clash in a row against their hosts on Thursday, having beaten them twice while he coached Celtic.

The Italian side were one of the most convincing on Matchday 1, where they claimed a 3-0 win against Dynamo Kyiv away from home. The French outfit rescued a one-all draw at home coming from behind against Real Sociedad, in a game where they seemed to deserve better following a missed spot kick. Lazio and Nice will play their third match in history, and the Serie A team will try to win this time around like they did in their two previous meetings back in 2017.

In what could be the standout game of the week, Porto welcome a struggling Manchester United side with much to play for...including their coach's future. Porto lost their first game in this competition against Bodo/Glimt, while Manchester United dropped the ball at Old Trafford by letting Twente walk away with one point. After many years of facing each other in the UEFA Champions League, this will be the first Europa League meeting between these teams and their first encounter in Europe since 2009, and although Manchester United have won three of their previous eight fixtures, something tells us that Porto could go on to beat the Red Devils for the third time in nine matches to level their record.

As mentioned before, the Dutch side claimed one point during their trip to Old Trafford, and now they get to face one former Manchester United tactician: José Mourinho. The Special One has started his term at Fenerbahce with his usual antics and controversy, but also with big wins just like the one they accomplished on Week 1 against Union Saint-Gilloise. This will be the fifth match between the Eredivisie side and the Turkish club, with the scales in favor of Mourinho's side, who have won three games against Twente in the past.
