Newcastle advance to the main round of the 2023/24 Champions League. This happened after Eddie Howe's team played a draw with Leicester (0:0) in the home match of the 37th round of the English Premier League (EPL). Before the final round of the Premier League, the Magpies are in third place with 70 points.. Thus, Newcastle became unattainable for Liverpool, who are now fifth with 66 points.. Consequently, Newcastle guaranteed a place in the top 4 and qualified for the Champions League group stage for next season.. The Magpies will play at the main stage of the main European tournament for the first time since the 2002/03 season. Newcastle also participated in the Champions League in 2003/04 but failed to qualify.

In the final round of the championship of England on May 28, Newcastle will play on the road with Chelsea Ukrainian winger Mykhailo Mudryk. Meanwhile, Leicester City (31 points) will host West Ham in hopes of maintaining their Premier League residence..

The foxes' competitors in the fight for the saving 17th position are Everton of the Ukrainian defender Vitaliy Mykolenko (33 points) and Leeds (31 points). Previously, Southampton lost their chances to stay in the elite division. Recall that the Premier League champion of the season 2022/23 became Manchester City. The team of Josep Guardiola at the end of the season bypassed Arsenal Ukrainian Oleksandr Zinchenko. The last ticket to the Champions League, most likely, will be taken by Manchester United, which closes the top 4 with 69 points and a game in hand.
