Premier League dominates Champions League again

All five teams have played well in the past stages of the Champions League.

If Arsenal beat Slavia Praha 3-0 away, Liverpool also defeated Real Madrid 1-0. Tottenham won the most, when they beat Copenhagen 4-0. Although Chelsea, Man City or Newcastle have not played, besides the teams in the Europa League and Conference League such as Forest or Palace, it can be affirmed that the Premier League will almost own 5 places in the Champions League season 2026/27.

According to statistics from Opta, as of November 5, the coefficient of English football on the UEFA rankings has far surpassed the rest. The Premier League has a 99.6% chance of owning 5 places in the Champions League season 2026/27. This is an almost absolute probability, even though the current season of European football has only been going on for nearly 3 months.

According to UEFA regulations, the top two associations in the coefficient rankings will receive +1 direct UCL spot next season. With the current gap, even if English clubs play extremely poorly from now until the end of the season in all three European cups, they will still maintain the number 1 position.

This is a worthy reward for the superior strength of English football this season, when Arsenal, Man City, Liverpool and Tottenham all have a big advantage to enter the round of 16. Chelsea and Newcastle are also playing well.

The “one-on-one” battle for the remaining UEFA spot will be between Serie A, La Liga and Ligue 1, Bundesliga. Serie A is temporarily ahead with a gap of only 0.05-0.08 points, equivalent to a 30.7% chance of keeping the prize spot. Following behind are Spain (22.5%), France (19.3%), Germany (18.8%).
