Wed May 07 20:50:00 UTC 2025: ## Six Premier League Teams Could Feature in 2025/26 Champions League
**London, UK** – The Premier League is poised to make history in the 2025/26 UEFA Champions League. Thanks to Arsenal’s victory over Real Madrid and the Premier League’s strong overall performance in European competitions, a minimum of five English teams are guaranteed entry. However, that number could swell to a record-breaking six.
Currently, the top four Premier League teams automatically qualify, and the fifth-placed team also earns a spot. The potential for a sixth comes from the UEFA Europa League. Both Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur are in the Europa League semi-finals, each holding a significant lead after their first legs. If either club wins the competition, the Premier League secures a sixth Champions League berth for next season. With both teams advancing to the final, a sixth Premier League team is guaranteed.
This would be an unprecedented feat, surpassing the previous record of five English teams in the 2017/18 Champions League. While other leagues like La Liga, Bundesliga and Serie A have also boasted five teams in recent seasons, no nation has ever had six. The outcome of Thursday’s Europa League semi-final second legs will determine whether the Premier League makes history.
