The Premier League can have a maximum of seven teams qualify for European football.

Four teams will be in the Champions League, three in the Europa League. However, if a team finishing outside the top four wins the Champions League or Europa League they will be rewarded with a Champions League group stage spot for next season and one of the Europa League qualifying places will be given up (five teams qualifying for the Champions League, two for the Europa League).

 

Glossary:
 
ITB= inside the box attempts, Goal of the month competitions usually feature several long range contenders and we always remember those 30 yard bullets into the top corner, but only 12.87% of Premier League goals over the last three seasons have been scored from outside the box , good coaches are known to encourage players to look for better scoring opportunities and it is usually only supporters urging "shoooooot" everytime the goal is within sight, even if there are 20 players between ball and net .
 
XG= expected goals.
XGF= expected goals for.
XGA = expected goals against.
XGD = expected goal difference.
XP = expected points.
BC = big scoring chance.
