Bournemouth and Manchester United: stadium, transfers and history compared...

They'll be playing each other next season - but how do Bournemouth and Manchester United compare?

Bournemouth virtually sealed promotion to the Premier League on Monday night, meaning the south coast side will come face-to-face with England's elite next season.

Boss Eddie Howe described the club's rise from the depths of the fourth-tier and the brink of extinction to Premier League new boys as an "amazing journey". A comparison with Manchester United demonstrates the scale of their achievement...

Seasons in England's top flight

Bournemouth: 0

Manchester United: 90

For all but five of Bournemouth's 116-year history, they have played in or below the third tier and last season's 10th-placed Championship finish was a club record. In contrast, Manchester United have enjoyed 90 seasons in the top flight since 1888/89 and are currently on a 40-season run in England’s elite division.

Last week, Sky Sports' Ultimate League, which listed the average finishing positions of English clubs over the past 50 years, placed United second, with an average placing of 4.9. Bournemouth were 62nd, with an average placing of 59.8.

Stadium capacity

Bournemouth: 12,000

Manchester United: 75,635

Bournemouth may be one of the best teams in the Championship this season but their Goldsands Stadium has the lowest capacity in the second tier. Chairman Jeff Mostyn has spoken of his aim to increase the capacity from 12,000 to 18,000. However, even that total would fall below the lowest capacity in the Premier League this season - 18,439 at QPR's Loftus Road.

Bournemouth have an average attendance this season of 10,265. Manchester United's Old Trafford, meanwhile, can hold 75,635 - second only to Wembley in England and in the top 10 football stadiums in Europe. Their average is a Premier League-high 75,329

Reading and Aston Villa need FA Cup win for Europa League spot

Reading and Aston Villa will have to win the FA Cup if they are to qualify for next season's Europa League.

Uefa introduced a new rule in July  that if the domestic cup winners had already qualified for the Champions League, the spare place would revert to the league.

Previously, the beaten finalists would qualify, as Hull City did after losing last year's final to Arsenal.

The Gunners, second in the Premier League, are likely to secure a European place through their league position.

Liverpool are currently fifth in English football's top-flight and will also play in European competition next season if they finish in the top six.

But for Aston Villa, 15th in the Premier League, and Reading, 18th in the Championship, only victory in the Wembley final will do.

Reading play the Gunners at Wembley in Saturday's semi-final, which kicks off at 17:20 BST and is live on BBC One Radio 5 live and the BBC Sport website.

Villa meet Liverpool on Sunday at 15:00 in a game that the BBC is covering live on radio and the website, with highlights on BBC One.

Villa have not played in Europe since 2010-11, when they were beaten by Rapid Vienna in the Europa League play-off round, while it would be Reading's first experience of European football.

If Arsenal win the FA Cup, or Liverpool do so and finish in the top six, the last Europa League spot will go to the team seventh in the Premier League, currently Tottenham.

Roberto Martinez says Everton are awaiting a final decision on Ross Barkley's summer schedule

Everton manager Roberto Martinez says a final decision has yet to be made on whether midfielder Ross Barkley will play for the England U21 team or the senior side this summer.

The U21s are taking part in the European Championship finals in the Czech Republic and several players who have been capped at senior level will be in the squad, in order to get some experience of tournament football.

However, Barkley was in the squad for the World Cup in Brazil last summer and it is thought most likely he will be with the seniors for their pair of June matches, rather than travelling away with the U21s.

But Martinez told Sky Sports News HQ: “We are not aware about what the final decision is on Ross Barkley. We are working closely with the FA, the England team, and the England set-up.

“At the moment, Ross is developing extremely well. I think, in the last few games, he has been enjoying his football, which is important.
