The Premier League will be guaranteed at least five teams in the 2025-26 Champions League edition following Arsenal’s stunning 3-0 win over Real Madrid in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie on Tuesday.
In this system, teams earn two points for a win and one for a draw, adding up all the points obtained by each club and dividing by the number of clubs from that league participating in Europe.
England could have up to seven teams in the upcoming Champions League if Aston Villa win this year’s edition without qualifying through the Premier League table, and if either Manchester United or Tottenham Hotspur are crowned in the Europa League.
Italy lead the race for the second additional place, with Spain and Germany trailing behind.
Premier League leaders Liverpool and second-placed Arsenal look set to claim two of the five available berths, while Nottingham Forest hold a strong third position.
Chelsea, Newcastle United, Manchester City, Aston Villa, Brighton & Hove Albion, and 10th-place Bournemouth remain within eight points of each other.
