Although there are still several European leagues which have not come to an end, and the Europa League and Champions League finals are still to be played, the outlook for the 17/18 Champions League play-off is gradually becoming clearer. As is already known, Sevilla FC will be seeded and will go straight to the final qualification stage for the group phase, with Sporting Lisbon as a potential opponent. This Saturday, Hoffenheim joined the Portuguese side in that regard, qualifying in fourth place in the Bundesliga and as a result with the same privileges as Sevilla FC, although their UEFA coefficient is not high enough for them to be seeded.

As is the case in Spain, Portugal and Germany, the representatives from the English and Italian leagues will also go directly through to this final round of qualifying. As far as the Premier League is concerned, Liverpool FC finished in fourth place, while next weekend we will find out whether Napoli or Roma will represent Serie A at this stage. In any case, all three of those teams would be seeded and as a result could not be drawn against Sevilla.
