How does Crystal Palace win the FA Cup affect the European qualification allocation for the Premier League?

In the FA Cup final, Crystal Palace defeated Manchester City to win the championship, qualifying for the Europa League next season, and also closed the door to advance to the European Cup in the 8th place in the Premier League.

In the FA Cup final this Sunday, Crystal Palace's victory over Manchester City is bad news for those teams competing for the league's eighth place. Although the Premier League has secured 5 Champions League places, if Manchester City can beat Crystal Palace and remain in the top 6 in the league, the 8th place can advance to next season's Europa League.

This is because the FA Cup winners will be postponed to the highest-ranked team outside the European War Zone. Currently, Brentford, Brighton, Bournemouth and Fulham all have hope to compete for 8th place.

If Manchester City wins the FA Cup, it will be good news for Chelsea, Aston Villa and Nottingham Forest, as one of these three teams may finish 7th.

But after winning at Crystal Palace, the European Cup will be divided into 7th place in the league. Although the FA Cup winner is less than £4 million, participating in the UEFA Cup will earn a richer income for Crystal Palace.

This Sunday, Brentford will strive to win his first five-game winning streak in the Premier League, leaving Fulham missed the 8th place, but the pressure on this game has been greatly weakened.

Next week's Europa League final, Manchester United and Tottenham will compete. Although the rankings of the two teams are close to the relegation zone in the league, the winner of the final will also qualify for the Champions League next season, which means that there will be 6 Premier League teams competing in the Champions League.

In total, 9 teams will participate in the Premier League next season.
