This term’s new format means the title winners are decided in this fashion, rather than topping the league, a feat that was achieved by Tottenham Hotspur.
A top-12 place has also assured United of entry into the 2024/25 Premier League International Cup, at Under-23s level.
Our Premier League 2 round-of-16 fixture will be against Arsenal, who finished in fifth spot, with the game scheduled to be played on Friday (3 May) at Borehamwood’s Meadow Park ground, kicking off at 19:00 BST.
If we progress, Brighton & Hove Albion or Chelsea will provide the opposition in the quarter-finals.
The final is due to be played before the end of next month.
