Which European competition will Chelsea play in next season? All depends on Man United

Chelsea have secured a sixth-place finish in the Premier League, guaranteeing themselves a place in a European competition — but it's still not entirely clear which.

The outcome depends on the FA Cup final between Man City and Man United.

The FA Cup winner is normally given a place in the Europa League. It won't be the case for Man City who have qualified for the Champions League — but Man United may benefit from this rule.

If Erik ten Hag's team wins on May 25, they will qualify for the Europa League, while Chelsea will play in the Conference League.

If Man United lose the final, Chelsea will be given a Europa League place, while Man United will miss out on European competitions entirely, having finished eighth in the Premier League.
