Europa League is close to completing its League Phase. Only one matchday remains, next Thursday at 21:00 CET, and we already know teams confirmed as eliminated, and teams confirmed for either the round of 16 or the knockout phase play-offs. However, there are also many teams who have chances to qualify, but could also be eliminated next week...

Europa League works the same way as Champions League: after an eight-match league, teams in the top 8 get direct qualification for the round of 16. Teams between 9 and 24 will play a knockout, two-legged playoff, to enter the round of 16. Teams 25 and below are eliminated.

After seven matchdays, this is how the Europa League table looks like:


  1. Lazio

  2. Eintracht Frankfurt

  3. Athletic Bilbao

  4. Manchester United

  5. Lyon

  6. Tottenham Hotspur

  7. Anderlecht

  8. FCSB

  9. Galatasaray

  10. Bodo/Glimt

  11. FC Viktoria Plzen

  12. Olympiakos FC

  13. Rangers

  14. AZ Alkmaar

  15. Union Saint-Gilloise

  16. Ajax

  17. PAOK Salonika

  18. Real Sociedad

  19. FC Midtjylland

  20. IF Elfsborg

  21. Roma

  22. Ferencvaros

  23. Fenerbahce

  24. Besiktas

  25. FC Porto

  26. FC Twente

  27. Braga

  28. TSG Hoffenheim

  29. Maccabi Tel Aviv

  30. Rigas Futbola Skola

  31. Slavia Prague

  32. Malmo FF

  33. Ludogorets

  34. Qarabag FK

  35. Nice

  36. Dynamo Kiev

Teams confirmed qualified and eliminated for Europa League

Thanks to a near perfect streak, Lazio (6 wins and 1 draw) is the only team that has secured its place in the round of 16, without the need to play the play-off, with 19 points. Other, like Frankfurt, Athletic Bilbao, Lyon and Manchester United, who earned a late victory yesterday, have also high chances of securing their place in the top 8, but nothing is certain.

There are, however, fifteen teams that have confirmed their place at the top 8 or at least the top 24, meaning their survival for the next round is safe: Anderlecht, Athletic Club, AZ Alkmaar, Bodø/Glimt, Eintracht Frankfurt, FCSB, Galatasaray, Lyon, Manchester United, Olympiacos, Rangers, Tottenham, Union SG, Viktoria Plzeň.

Teams that need to secure their survival next week:

And with seven eliminated teams (Dynamo Kyiv, Ludogorets, Malmö, Nice, Qarabağ, RFS, Slavia Praha) that means that there are still teams, those between 16th place and the 29th place, that will fight for survival next Thursday: 9 available spots and 15 teams fighting for them...

16. Ajax - 10 points
17. PAOK Salonika - 10 points
18. Real Sociedad - 10 points
19. FC Midtjylland - 10 points
20. IF Elfsborg - 10 points
21. Roma - 9 points
22. Ferencvaros - 9 points
23. Fenerbahce - 9 points
24. Besiktas - 9 points
---Elimination---
25. FC Porto - 8 points
26. FC Twente - 7 points
27. Braga - 7 points
28. TSG Hoffenheim - 6 points
29. Maccabi Tel Aviv - 6 points
