The UEFA Conference League is a European club football competition established by the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) in 2021. It aims to provide more teams from various countries the opportunity to compete on an international level, particularly those from smaller leagues. The tournament features clubs that do not qualify for the more prestigious UEFA Champions League or UEFA Europa League. The competition consists of a group stage followed by knockout rounds, culminating in a final match to determine the champion. The winner of the UEFA Conference League earns a spot in the following season's UEFA Europa League, enhancing their chances for European success.
