Seven teams have qualified for the knockout stages of this season’s Europa League.

They are: Lazio, Anderlecht, Athletic Club, Frankfurt, Galatasaray, Lyon and Manchester United.

Athletic Club were the first club to progress into the knockout phase, following their 2-0 win at Fenerbahçe on Matchday 6.

They were then joined by six teams on Thursday.

Lyon played out a 0-0 draw at Fenerbahce, Anderlecht lost 2-0 at Viktoria Plzen and Frankfurt beat Ferencvarois 2-0.

Lazio thrashed Real Sociedad 3-1 and Manchester United defeated Rangers 2-1 at Old Trafford.

However, no side has yet confirmed an automatic Round of 16 place.

Lyon are top of the league phase with 19 points after seven matches, while Frankfurt are second with 16 points.

This is the first Europa League campaign under the new league phase format.

The top eight overall will advance directly to the round of 16; sides finishing from ninth to 24th will take part in the play-offs, with the winners going through to the last 16.
