Giorgio Marchetti and - surely any minute - Pedro Pinto now here. Time for the draw to get underway.

And the second studio guest is none other than Athletic Bilbao legend Aritz Aduriz, who certainly loved this competition.

He scored 26 goals in 39 games for the Basque side, and is the official UEFA ambassador for the 2025 Europa League final in Bilbao.

Former Sweden and Atalanta midfielder Glenn Stromberg, who won the UEFA Cup with IFK Goteborg in 1982, has now walked on to the stage with the Europa League trophy. Looks like he's going to be involved in the draw.

Almost time for the draw
