Europa League

First answer friday for le gym

Paris Saint-Germain face Saint-Etienne in the 103rd Coupe de France final on Friday (kick-off 21:10CEST). After the final whistle at the Stade de France, OGC Nice will have a slightly clearer idea of their European future.

THE SCENARIOS

►Scenario 1: If Paris win the Coupe de France, Nice (5th in Ligue 1) go into the Europa League group stage. Lyon (if they beat Paris in the Coupe de la Ligue final)  or Reims (6th in Ligue 1) go into the 2nd qualifying round.

►Scenario 2: If Paris lose the Coupe de France final, Saint-Etienne go into the Europa League group stage. Lyon (if they win the Coupe de la Ligue) or Nice will go into the 2nd qualifying round. Reims will not play European football.

► Scenario 3: If Paris win both domestic cup competitions, Nice go into the Europa League group stage, and Reims head into the 2nd qualifying round.

►Scenario 4: If Paris win neither of the domestic cup finals, Saint-Etienne (Coupe de France winners) are in the group stage, Lyon (Coupe de la Ligue winners) go into the 2nd qualifying round. Nice and Reims will not play in European competition in 2020/21.
