In 2019, Arsenal, under new manager Unai Emery, managed to reach the final of the UEFA Europa League, where they lost 4–1 against fellow Premier League club Chelsea. This defeat ensured that Arsenal would spend its third consecutive season since 2017–18 out of the UEFA Champions League. Next season's Europa League campaign was a disappointing one as Arsenal bowed out of the competition in the round of 32, losing to Olympiacos on aggregate after extra time. By winning the 2020 FA Cup (and finishing 8th in the league), Arsenal qualified for the Europa League for the fourth consecutive season. They reached the semi-finals, losing 2-1 to Villarreal CF, who went on to win the Europa League.
