Who Chelsea and Spurs could face in the 2019/20 Champions League group stages

Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur have all but secured their Champions League places next season after the latest round of games in the Premier League.

The Blues beat Watford 3-0 to make sure they will be back with Europe's elite next year while Spurs were beaten 1-0 by AFC Bournemouth, but Arsenal's inability to beat Brighton meant that Mauricio Pochettino's side were let off the hook.

They're three points ahead of the Gunners with one game left to play, but with a superior goal difference of eight, meaning that Spurs would have to lose and Arsenal win on the final day with a nine goal swing.

26 teams qualify for the group stags which included the holders of both the Champions League and Europa League, the top four in England, Germany, Spain and Italy, the top two in France and Russia as well as the domestic champions in Portugal, Ukraine, Belgium and Turkey.

Six teams will also join those teams that come through the qualifying stages of the competition - here's who the two teams could be joined by in the group stages if the season ended today.
