Will a new manager have taken over Manchester United by the time they play PAOK Saloniki at home? And will they fare better than the three points from three draws they managed so far? How many of the twelve unbeaten teams will have their series ended on matchday no. 4 and who will take the lead on the league table? These questions will all be answered on the fourth match day of the UEFA Europa League 2024/25.
6 November 2024
Besiktas JK vs. Malmö FF
16.30h (17.30h local time), Inönü Stadium, Istanbul
27th/3pts vs. 25th/3pts
Just three goals separate these two teams who will not be happy with the way they started into the league phase. Malmö travels to Istanbul in hope to create an upset and come away with some points to show.

Eintracht Frankfurt vs. Slavia Prague
18.45h, Waldstadion, Frankfurt
6th/7pts vs. 16th/4pts
Compared to the UEFA Champions League, even 12 teams are still unbeaten after three matches in the league phase. One of them is Eintracht Frankfurt with seven points, looking to replicate European heroics from past seasons. They should also be able to beat Slavia Prague and therefore challenge leaders Lazio, Tottenham and Anderlecht for the top spot in the league table.

OGC Nice vs. Twente Enschede
18.45h, Allianz Riviera, Nice
32nd/1pt vs. 28th/2pts
Two teams from the bottom third of the table meet in Nice. Both will be desperate for points to still remain in contention for a knockout spot after half the league phase games. Nice should have a rather smooth run-in after games against big opponents such as Lazio and Ferencvaros. Similar things go for Twente who played against Manchester United, Lazio and Fenerbahçe in the first three games.

PFC Ludogorets vs. Athletic Bilbao
18.45h (19.45h local time), Huvepharma Arena, Razgrad
33rd/1pt vs. 8th/7pts
After two wins and a draw, Athletic are flying high in the competition. Their opponents Ludogorets however are absolutely desperate for points, having just recorded the solitary point from a draw against Viktoria Plzen so far.

Elfsborg vs. SC Braga
18.45h, Borås Arena, Borås
22nd/3pts vs. 26th/3pts
The home team are really just outsiders in this competition while Braga have already tasted a final in the past. But is this really how to compare the two? With both teams sitting at one win and two defeats, both will have a reason to improve from the previous games.
5M641 OPO xxxx-1415 GOT (06/11/24)
Bodø/Glimt vs. Qarabag Agdam
A long trip up North for the team from Azerbaijan who will arrive in Bodø two days before the game takes place.

Manchester United vs. PAOK Saloniki
21.00h (20.00h local time), Old Trafford, Manchester
21st/3pts vs. 30th/1pt
Manchester United and their (former) manager Erik ten Hag were much of the talk of town in recent weeks. His sacking was widely anticipated, although many experts would have expected it to come even sooner. A successor has not yet been named at the time of writing. It can be expected that a caretaker will look after the team until the next national team break. Three drawn matches can not be United's standard, even if the games were highly entertaining and filled with suspense. For the game against PAOK Saloniki, visiting supporters will fly up to Manchester in large numbers with Enter Air and Electra Airways. The team will travel with SKY Express.
