As many as eight Bundesliga clubs will have a shot at European football in 2024/25. bundesliga.com gives you the lowdown on who has qualified from your favourite division...

UEFA Champions League

The exploits of Bundesliga teams in Europe this season means German clubs have earned an extra berth in the new-format Champions League. As a result, the top five all qualified for the competition.

1st: Bayer Leverkusen (90pts, GD +65)
2nd: VfB Stuttgart (73pts, GD +39)
3rd:
Bayern Munich (72pts, GD +49)
4th: RB Leipzig (65pts, GD +38)
5th: Borussia Dortmund (63pts, GD +25)

Dortmund received the plaudits after they beat Paris Saint-Germain in their Champions League semi-final first leg to get the Bundesliga over the line and secure an extra 'European Performance Spot', also confirming their own 2024/25 qualification in the process.

UEFA Europa League

6th: Eintracht Frankfurt (47pts, GD +1)
7th: Hoffenheim (46pts, GD 0)

The extra position for collective performance in European competitions means that things shift down one spot in the table.

Therefore, sixth goes directly into the Europa League, along with the winner of the DFB Cup. However, as Leverkusen won a domestic double, seventh-placed Hoffenheim go into the Europa League alongside Frankfurt.

If Dortmund had won the Champions League, then things would have changed with Frankfurt going into the Champions League as Germany's sixth representative. This did not come to pass, however, with BVB losing out to Real Madrid in the Wembley showpiece, meaning Eintracht are Europa League bound.  

Watch: Hoffenheim secured a European spot with victory over Bayern

UEFA Conference League play-offs

8th: Heidenheim (42pts, GD -5)
_______________________________
9th: Werder Bremen (42pts, GD -6)
10th: Freiburg (42pts, GD -13)

Thanks to Leverkusen, Heidenheim - having finished their debut Bundesliga season above Werder Bremen and Freiburg on goal difference - will contest the Europa Conference League play-off.
