FA Cup semi-final draw gives hope of extra Euro place for Premier League

The teams on the fringe of the race for European places next season have been given a boost by the FA Cup semi-final draw.
After Arsenal and Liverpool were kept apart, a final between the two could result in an extra Europa League place being awarded to the Premier League. 

Some clubs might regard a place in UEFA’s second-tier competition as an unwanted prize given the demands of Thursday night football and the potential for it to disrupt weekly plans and often negatively affect performances in the Premier League.
