The 2014–15 Premier League International Cup was the inaugural season of the Premier League International Cup, a European club football competition organised by the Premier League for under-21 players.[1]

Qualification

[edit]

For English sides qualification was via performance in the 2013–14 Barclays Under 21 Premier League with the top eight sides qualifying for the competition. Liverpool U21s and Manchester United U21s did not take up the opportunity to enter the competition and they were replaced with West Ham U21s and Norwich City U21s who finished 9th and 10th respectively.[2] Entry of European teams was by invitation and was influenced by the quality of each club's academy.[1]

Group stage

[edit]

Group-stage matches were played between 15 October 2014 and 31 January 2015. The teams were drawn into four groups of four with two English sides and two European sides in each group.
