A busy and thrilling match-week 1 in the Europa League comes to a close!

Bodo and Twente offer the surprises of the week against Porto and Manchester United, a couple of high-profile fixtures end in 1-1 draws, starry Galatasaray and Fenerbahce motor through, and Frankfurt throws away a win.

All that and more as our League Phase kicks off! And if you'd like to see our beautiful faces while listening, we are now posting our episodes on Youtube - video and all. Check us out at at @AnyGivenThursday. Thanks!

And let's not forget - Cheers Joseph Oosting!

With the Europa and Conference League League Phases rapidly approaching, we thought we'd give you a quick special edition episode with all our predictions for Matchday 1!

First we cover the Europa, which kicks off Wednesday the 25th, then hit the Conference, which starts a week later on October 2.

Do you agree with our takes? Are we spot on? Or are we idiots? Only time will tell.

Cheers Mladen Žižović!

Our next League Phase preview is up and running, and this time we're all about the Conference League!

Here, we react to our first taste of the new League Phase (via the Champions League), then dive into all our predictions for the six Conference League matchdays to come.

We debate the teams who will qualify for the top 8, discuss the best fixtures, and highlight a couple of clubs to look out (I'm looking at you Lugano!).

We also muse at whether The New Saints can get a single point. We believe in you TNS!

Cheers Stephen Bradley!
