The start of the Europe League first round is just over a week away and for the English clubs, it's a huge opportunity.
With just four sides able to qualify for the Champions League through the Premier League, Europe's second opportunity offers a valuable route into the elite competition.
Chelsea are proof of that having qualified for the Champions League as winners of the Europa League - meaning that their third place finish in the top flight was merely a bonus.
But this season it'll be Arsenal, Manchester United and Wolves who are competing for the top prize.
Both sides are outside bets to finish in the Premier League's top four, meaning that winning the second competition could be a vital boost.
Unfortunately for the Gunners, it seems that their Manchester rivals are more likely to go all of the way.
According to Five Thirty Eight , United are favourites to win the competition.
This is calculated by generating a Soccer Power Index (SPI) which tells you how likely each club is to progress through every round of the competition.
The SPI is calculated by forming an attacking rating of how likely the club is to score against the average opposition, and a defensive rating, which calculates how likely they are to concede against the average side.
While Manchester United and Arsenal are the favourites for the competition, it's Ole Gunner Solskjaer's side who come out on top.
Both sides are similar in terms of their attacking and defensive rating, but based on match performances (adjusted goals, shot-based expected goals and non-shot expected goals), it's the Red Devils who are expected to prosper.
