When are the Europa League semi-finals? Dates, how to watch, teams & everything you need to know

 

When are the Europa League 2021-22 semi-finals?

The 2021-22 Europa League semi-finals will be played across two legs in April and May 2022.

First-leg games are scheduled for April 28, with the second-leg matches taking place a week later on May 5.

That means there will be a two-week gap between the second legs of the quarter-finals and the first-legs of the semi-finals, allowing plenty of time for teams to prepare for their opponents.
