With three of the eight remaining sides in Europe's second-tier competition coming from La Liga, it's little surprise that more than half of the honourees for the Europa League Team of the Week come from the Spanish top flight.

Goal-scorer Kevin Gameiro, midfielder Ever Banega, and defender Timothee Kolodziejczak were recognized for Sevilla's away victory over fellow Spaniards Athletic Bilbao.

Unai Emery's trio was joined by Bilbao goal machine Aritz Aduriz and Villarreal duo Cedric Bakambu and Denis Suarez.
