They get to claim expenses from UEFA up to a specified limit.

The club's involved make a lot of money from these games. It's all relative of course but if you win a game or two, it can represent a significant amount of their annual budget.

The New Saints travel to Sweden and lose 3-1. I just can’t see them making any money from the adventure whatsoever.

Even the losing clubs in the early qualifiers are guaranteed a 6-figure sum.

They can make more in the qualifiers than they get for winning their domestic league. The chairman of TNS said in 2019 that if they won their 2nd qualifying round tie it would equate to more than their annual budget in prize money.

Bar Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern, Napoli, who will be the main threats, and maybe Inter, AC, and Arsenal, it’s there for the taking again. I’m not counting United as I don’t think they will mount a serious challenge.

Don’t know about napoli, I anticipate regression.

They get about €300K for that round. A couple of years ago, they made around €1m.

Winning the Cymru Premier Europa League Play-Off final is worth about €300K. Not to be sniffed at at that level.

The money made is peanuts by PL standards but allows them to dominate their domestic leagues.
