With just one Serie A matchday remaining in the 2025–26 season, plenty is still to be decided. Inter clinched their 21st Scudetto and were the first team to secure qualification for next year's UEFA Champions League. Behind them, the race for Europe remains wide open — four Champions League spots are up for grabs, along with places in the UEFA Europa League and the UEFA Conference League, setting up a tense and unpredictable finish to the campaign.
How many teams will qualify?
Due to the disappointing European results this season, Italy's Serie A will not receive additional spots next season. The top four teams will qualify for the Champions League.
There will be two Europa League spots — one for fifth place and one for the Coppa Italia winner. After Inter's title win, sixth place is now guaranteed access to the Europa League, while the seventh-placed team will play Conference League soccer.
