UEFA Champions League

Arsenal have qualified for the 2015-16 UEFA Champions League due to finishing third in the 2014-15 Premier League. This means that Arsenal have qualified for the UEFA Champions League for the 18th consecutive year. Following changes to UEFA qualification rules, pot 1 for group stage draws would now consist of the Champions League holders and the champions of the seven highest ranked associations. Arsenal having previously been seeded in pot 1 for the Champions League draw as one of the top 8 ranked teams in UEFA, dropped into pot 2 for the 2015-16 UEFA Champions League group stage draw with the remainder of the highest seeded non-champions according to UEFA coefficient.
