The start of the qualifying phase of the European Championship has come to an end. The teams that will take part in the tournament are:
* Manchester United;
* Liverpool;
* Arsenal;
* Chelsea.
The teams have already played a series of matches, and now it is time to see who will be able to qualify for the next stage of the tournament.
In the first round, the teams played against each other, and the first match ended in a draw. However, the second match ended with a victory for the Red Devils. The team of Jose Mourinho managed to break the hegemony of the Old Trafford club, and it is now the main contender for the title.
The second round of the championship started with a series that was dominated by the Royal club. The first match of the series ended with the victory of the team of Jurgen Klopp, who managed to take the lead in the standings.
After the first matches, the position of Liverpool has changed. The Reds managed to win the second round, and they are now the second in the table. The main rival of the Merseysiders is the Arsenal, which managed to make it to the top four.
However, the Gunners have a serious problem, which is the lack of a good goalkeeper. The club has been trying to solve this problem for a long time, but the problem has not been solved yet.
At the moment, the team is playing against the teams that are at the bottom of the standings, and this fact is the main reason for the lackadaisical performance of the Gunner.
If the team manages to win a match, then it will be a good chance to climb to the next position, and then the club will be ready to fight for the coveted title. The following teams are the main contenders for the victory in the next round:
1. Chelsea;
2. Manchester United.
Both the teams are in the middle of the table, but they have a long way to go in the championship.

UEFA Europa League
Another tournament of the highest level is the UEFA Europa League. The current season of the club tournament has already shown that the level of the teams is increasing.
One of the main goals of the clubs is to enter the Champions club tournament. This tournament is the strongest club tournament of all, and even the strongest clubs are unable to win all the matches.
Now, the UEFA tournament is much more attractive, because it is held in the summer, when the teams have to play in the Europa League, and not in the winter.
There are several reasons that can justify the fact that the UEFA club tournament is so popular.

All these factors are the key factors that can help the clubs to qualify to the Champions tournament. The Europa League is held once every two years, and in the current season, the leading teams have a good opportunity to enter it.
Who Will Win the Title?
The current season has already seen a number of upsets, and many of them can be attributed to the fact the teams do not have a clear leader. The strongest teams are: Liverpool, Manchester City, and Tottenham Hotspur.
Many people have already predicted the victory for Liverpool, and their fans have already begun to prepare for the match. The Merseysides team has already managed to reach the Champions’ cup, but it is not yet clear how the team will perform in the club championship. It can be said that the team does not have the right to enter this tournament, because the club is not a real contender for it.
