Summary at a Glance

Two leagues will be rewarded with an extra place in next season's Champions League based on performances in the Champions League, Europa League and Conference League this season.

After the Champions League play-off round, the Premier League is in a strong place to secure an extra place in the Champions League after a nightmare week for Serie A clubs.

Arsenal and Liverpool are still in the Champions League, Tottenham and Mancehster United are still in the Europa League and Chelsea are in the Conference League, with all five clubs expected to go deep in their respective tournaments.

An extra spot for the Premier League would mean the top five would qualify for the Champions League, which is good news for Chelsea.

Serie A is third on 17.812 points but, after AC Milan, Atalanta and Juventus were all knocked out in the Champions League play-off round, Italian clubs will struggle to catch the Premier League.
