Nottingham Forest have secured a place in the UEFA Europa Conference League playoffs after finishing 7th in the Premier League, despite a 0–1 home defeat to Chelsea on the final matchday.
Forest ended the 2024–25 Premier League season with 19 wins, 8 draws, and 11 losses, collecting 65 points to secure 7th place in the table.
According to statistics, this marks the club’s first qualification for European competition in 29 years. Their last appearance came in the 1995–96 UEFA Cup (now the Europa League), where they reached the semi-finals before being eliminated by Bayern Munich — losing 1–5 in the first leg and 1–2 in the second, for a 2–7 aggregate defeat.
