About the competition
The UEFA Europa League is the second-tier annual European club football competition organised by UEFA. It is contested by clubs that qualify based on performance in their national leagues and cup competitions. The winner earns automatic qualification for the following season’s UEFA Champions League, giving the competition significant competitive and financial importance.
The Europa League has expanded significantly in recent years, with clubs from across UEFA’s membership competing over an extended league phase and knockout rounds. Qualification to the following season’s Champions League adds further competitive weight, and the final itself is among the most watched club matches of the European calendar.
