There are a few things to keep in mind that would affect this qualifying setup:
- The winner of each European competition in 2024/25 will earn an automatic berth in the competition above the one they won. IF a Premier League club wins a European competition and has already automatically qualified via the table, their place will fall to the next club which has not already qualified for the indicated competition.
- A total of six Premier League clubs theoretically COULD qualify for the Champions League, with the additional fifth-place slot and either Tottenham or Manchester United winning the Europa League this season.
- The winners of the 2024/25 FA Cup will qualify automatically for the Europa League league phase. IF the winner of the FA Cup has already qualified for the Champions League or Europa League via table position, this qualifying position will fall to the next-highest team in the table not to have qualified for the Europa League.
- Newcastle won the 2024/25 EFL Cup meaning they have an automatic route into the Europa Conference League league phase. If Newcastle qualify for the Champions League or Europa League via table position, their Conference League spot will fall to the next-highest team in the table not to have qualified for the Europa League.
