The Europa League this season has been extremely unpredictable, with so-called 'smaller' teams with lower budgets thriving against some of Europe's established elite. This means that any predictions that are made are extremely likely to come back to haunt the pundits who make them.
For example, it would have taken a very brave observer to predict that Barcelona would be defeated by Rangers' Europa League final opponents Eintracht Frankfurt in the quarter finals. You might have been similarly ridiculed for predicting that the Gers would beat German giants Borussia Dortmund in the Round of 32 way back in February.
