Liverpool were Europa League favourites says Bilic [divider]

Beşiktaş manager Slaven Bilic revealed that Liverpool were the favourites to win the Europa League going into the Round of 32.

The Black Eagles knocked the Reds out of the competition on penalties at the Atatürk Olympic stadium 10 years after Liverpool beat AC Milan in the Champions League final in a penalty shoot out.

“Liverpool were the favourites for the Europa League, of course there are no easy teams in the Last 16,” Bilic was quoted as saying by ESPN.

“If you ask what we have a bigger chance to win it is the Turkish league.”
