Dortmund will play in the UCL next season. UEFA has created a new rule format. Among them is that the number of additional tickets that will be given to the league will be calculated based on the coefficient value of a team when playing in European competitions, such as the UCL, UEL and European Confederation Cup. This value shows that this season the Bundesliga has the best coefficient value so they get 5 tickets next season. Dortmund is in fifth place in the final standings and fortunately they can play in the UCL next season.
Bundesliga got extra quota for UEFA Champion League participants although Dortmund finished on 5th standings position in domestic league but will participants in Champion League not Europe League. Not only with Bundesliga but also Serie A has best coefficient values after getting five Champion League ticket for next season and potential has six appearance teams but Roma failed finish on 5th standings position after Atalanta winning the Europe League.
The winner of Europe League get direct promotion ticket for participating in Champion League and give advantage for domestic league if the winner teams finish outside Champion League spot standings. La Liga ever had 5 teams participants in Champion League after Sevilla won UEFA Europe League and other side finish outside from top fourth standings position.
