Since the rebranding of the UEFA Cup as the UEFA Europa League in 2009, 70 different players from 35 countries have scored three or more goals in a single match (a hat-trick) on 86 occasions, representing 56 clubs from 19 countries. The first to do so was Liédson for Sporting CP against Dutch club Heerenveen on 17 September 2009, the first matchday of the new competition.
Five players have gone on to score more than three goals in a match, with Radamel Falcao, Edinson Cavani, Willian José and Patson Daka managing four goals, and Athletic Bilbao's Aritz Aduriz scoring all five in a 5–3 win over Genk on 3 November 2016. Falcao and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang have scored the most hat-tricks in the Europa League, with three each; all of Falcao's hat-tricks came for Porto in their victorious 2010–11 campaign, while Aubameyang is the only player to score a hat-trick for three different clubs (Borussia Dortmund, Arsenal and Marseille). Klaas-Jan Huntelaar and Diogo Jota are the only players to score hat-tricks in consecutive appearances.
Daka holds the record for the quickest hat-trick in the competition, with just nine minutes between his first and third goals for Leicester City against Spartak Moscow on 20 October 2021. João Félix is the youngest scorer of a Europa League hat-trick, with his three goals against Eintracht Frankfurt on 11 April 2019 coming at the age of 19 years and 152 days.
