The UEFA Europa League will have a full matchday this Thursday, with 18 matches corresponding to the fourth round of the second most important club tournament on the "Old Continent". After the first three matchdays, three teams currently maintain a perfect record and share the top spot. They are the surprising Danish Midtjylland, Portugal's Sporting Braga, and France's Lyon. The latter team miraculously avoided relegation from France's Ligue 1 due to its debts, and after that tumultuous situation, it is performing well both internationally and domestically this season. From fourth to seventh place, there is also a tie in points, as Croatia's Dinamo Zagreb, Czech Republic's Viktoria Plzen, Germany's Freiburg, and Hungary's Ferencvaros all have seven points. The last team that would be securing direct qualification to the Round of 16 is Norway's Brann, although everything is very close, and several teams could overtake them in this matchday. There will also be action for footballers who play for the Argentine national team, such as Emiliano "Dibu" Martínez (Aston Villa) and Giovani Lo Celso (Betis), whose teams are in the playoff qualification zone.
