4. Wolverhampton Wanderers

The English Premier League side which slightly fell from getting the UCL spot in the just concluded season have shown keen interest in winning this season’s Europa trophy.

The players Nuno will be parading which includes; ace dribbler Adama Traore, Raul Jimenez, Joao Moutinho, Ruben Neves, and Diogo Jota provide him with an advantage ahead of others in pursuit of the league triumph.

3. Inter Milan

Since their exit from the UEFA Champions League, Inter Milan have cruised through the round 32 against Ludogorets on 4-1 aggregate.

The Antonio Conte’s sides crossed the round 16 knockout stage after dumping Getafe 2-1 with Romelu Lukaku and Christian Eriksen registering on the scorecard.

Apart from Manchester United, no team has more key players to compete in the league than Inter.

Lautaro Martinez, Romelu Lukaku, Christian Eriksen, Alexis Sanchez, Ashley Young, Marcelo Brozovic, and Diego Godin are players that can take Inter to victory.

2. Sevilla

The Spanish side, Sevilla is one of the most successful clubs in the league after winning the UEFA Europa League five times, more than any other European club.

Apart from its historical stand in the league, Sevilla also have in squad what it takes to win the league this season.

1. Manchester United

Manchester United is the biggest side in the league in terms of key players, UEFA triumphs, and performance.

The reds have won three UEFA Champions Leagues, one UEFA Europa League, one UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup, one UEFA Super Cup, one Intercontinental Cup, and one FIFA Club World Cup.

The Ole Gunnar Solskjær’s United defeated Club Brugge in the round 32 of the leagues and proceeded on to thumb down LASK in round 16 on 7-1 aggregate.
