After beating Manchester City in the FA Cup final on May 17, Crystal Palace became the first Premier League team to qualify for the Europa League. The second Europa League team will qualify from the league.<\/p>\n<p>Since the top five teams will qualify for the Champions League this season, the team sitting in sixth place will directly qualify for UEL.<\/p>\n<h3>Which Teams are in the Running for the Europa League?<\/h3>\n<p>There are not many permutations for the second Europa League spot. With Brighton &amp; Hove Albion sitting seven points behind seventh-ranked Nottingham Forest, they are not in the running for the UEL spot. So, the last Europa spot will go to the team that misses out on Champions League qualification.<\/p>\n<p>Go through the table below to find all the permutations for a sixth-placed finish.<\/p>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;\" border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"6\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\">\n<th>Team<\/th>\n<th>Conditions to Qualify for the Europa League<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\">\n<td><strong>Manchester City<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Lose to Fulham and Newcastle, Chelsea, and Aston Villa all win<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\">\n<td><strong>Newcastle United<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Draw or lose vs Everton and Chelsea (or Forest) and Villa win<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\">\n<td><strong>Chelsea<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Draw or lose to Nottingham Forest, and Newcastle and Villa win<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\">\n<td><strong>Aston Villa<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Win vs Man United, and Chelsea and Newcastle also win<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\">\n<td><strong>Nottingham Forest<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>Beat Chelsea, and either Newcastle or Aston Villa drop points<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Finally, we have the Europa Conference League.<\/p>\n<h2>Premier League Europa Conference League Qualification<\/h2>\n<p>The team that wins the EFL Cup qualifies for the UEFA Europa Conference League. This year, Newcastle United claimed the League Cup, beating the mighty Liverpool 2-1. So, Newcastle United are guaranteed to play in the Europa Conference League.<\/p>\n<p>However, since Newcastle United are fourth in the Premier League rankings, there is a good chance they would finish inside the top five and qualify for the Champions League. In that case, the seventh-ranked team will qualify for the Europa Conference League. Nottingham Forest currently sit in seventh place with 65 points.<\/p>\n<h2>Ten Premier League Clubs Could Be in Europe Next Season<\/h2>\n<p>The top seven in the Premier League, the winners of the Europa League final between Tottenham Hotspur vs Man Utd, and the FA Cup winners, Crystal Palace, are all guaranteed to play in Europe next season, making it nine participations from the English top flight.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, in two scenarios, a whopping 10 Premier League clubs could go to Europe, all thanks to Chelsea.<\/p>\n<p>Enzo Maresca&#8217;s side have qualified for the Europa Conference League final. If they manage to beat Real Betis in the showpiece event on May 28, they will directly qualify for the Europa League.<\/p>\n<h3>How Can the Eighth-Ranked Premier League Team Qualify for Europe?<\/h3>\n<p>If Chelsea win the Europa Conference League, they can send the eighth-best Premier League team to the Conference League in one of two ways.<\/p>\n<h4>#1 Chelsea Finish Seventh and Win the Conference League<\/h4>\n<p>In this scenario, Chelsea (as Conference League winners), Crystal Palace (FA Cup winners), and the sixth-ranked Premier League side qualify for the Europa League. Since Chelsea finished seventh and qualified for the Europa League, the team in eighth will go the the Europa Conference League.<\/p>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;\" border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"6\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\">\n<th>European Qualification<\/th>\n<th>Position<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\">\n<td>Champions League Spots<\/td>\n<td>Top five teams in the Premier League<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\">\n<td>Europa League Spot #1<\/td>\n<td>FA Cup Winners &#8211; Crystal Palace<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\">\n<td>Europa League Spot #2<\/td>\n<td>UEFA Conference League Winners &#8211; Chelsea<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\">\n<td>Europa League Spot #3<\/td>\n<td>Sixth-placed team in the Premier League<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\">\n<td>Europa Conference League<\/td>\n<td>Seventh-placed team in the Premier League (Chelsea finished 7th, so 8th takes this spot)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>#2 Chelsea Finish Sixth and Win the Conference League, And Newcastle Finish Seventh<\/h4>\n<p>If this happens, Chelsea will qualify for the Europa League as Conference League winners, freeing up the league spot reserved for the competition. Newcastle United, who had a Conference League spot, would benefit and qualify for the Europa League from seventh place. This will allow the eighth-ranked team to qualify for the Europa Conference League.<\/p>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;\" border=\"1\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"6\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\">\n<th>Position \/ Achievement<\/th>\n<th>European Qualification<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\">\n<td>Champions League Spots<\/td>\n<td>Top five teams in the Premier League<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\">\n<td>Europa League Spot #1<\/td>\n<td>UEFA Conference League Winners &#8211; Chelsea<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\">\n<td>Europa League Spot #2<\/td>\n<td>FA Cup Winners &#8211; Crystal Palace<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"background-color: #f9f9f9;\">\n<td>Europa League Spot #3<\/td>\n<td>Goes to seventh-placed team &#8211; Newcastle United<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"background-color: #ffffff;\">\n<td>Europa Conference League<\/td>\n<td>Goes to eighth-placed team in the Premier League<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is it!
