The English Premier League (EPL) is a highly competitive league. In addition to the traditional "Big 6", Newcastle, Aston Villa and Brighton have emerged in recent years to compete for the four UEFA Europa League (UEFA) spots. The Premier League announced on Wednesday (9) that, under the UEFA system, the Premier League will have the opportunity to carry up to five UEFA Europa League places in the new season, and in the most extreme case, there may even be seven teams playing in the UEFA Europa League together!
For the first time in the history of the Premier League, five teams will have the chance to qualify for the UEFA Europa League through the league standings," a Premier League statement said. According to the new UEFA Europa League system for the 24/25 season, the two leagues with the highest number of points in Europe last season will be given an extra UEFA Europa League spot, meaning that if the Premier League clubs maintain their excellent European performances in recent years, the top five teams in the Premier League will be able to play in the UEFA Europa League (24/25) this season.
