The 2023-24 Champions League is set to expand adding four additional clubs to the group stage. Two European leagues will each receive an extra place determined by this season’s results. One spot goes to the third placed team in the domestic league ranked fifth in UEFA’s coefficient rankings (France’s Ligue 1 in this case) and the other to a domestic champion via the ‘champions path.’
Additionally, the top two leagues from the previous season’s UEFA club competitions will receive ‘European Performance Spots.’ Current standings indicate Serie A (Italy) is leading with 15.571 points followed by the Premier League (England) with 13.875 and Bundesliga (Germany) with 14.500. La Liga (Spain) holds the fifth position with 13.187 points.
The analysis provides insights into each league’s performance and potential outcomes considering ongoing knockout rounds in the Champions League, Europa League and Conference League. Despite fluctuations, Serie A remains strong while the Premier League and Bundesliga compete closely for additional spots.
