Man United qualified for the Champions League with a win over Chelsea, which means Liverpool are out.
Liverpool are expected to finish in fifth place.
Jurgen Klopp has admitted Liverpool failed to qualify for the Champions League when his side drew at Aston Villa last weekend, coinciding with Manchester United's crucial three points against Bournemouth.
Although Erik ten Hag's men were seen as a guarantee of a top-four finish in January, a couple of disappointing results have given Liverpool hope to close the gap and they can build momentum.
Before last weekend, Liverpool were only one point behind, but they could only draw Aston Villa at home. United beat Bournemouth thanks to a beautiful goal from Casemiro and Klopp, speaking in his final press conference of the season, said it was at that moment he knew Liverpool had lost the race, although it was unofficial at the time. This.
"The fact that we don't have the Champions League, although I know it after the game against [Aston Villa], that's clear," said Klopp. I drew a line below. I'm an optimist, but I didn't see it at the time.
We have known for a long time that this is not going to be a historic season. Since Dubai after the World Cup, the points we've had since then have been pretty good. If we can do it all season, that would be great.
"It wasn't the season we wanted. I really don't think it's the season we're going to talk about and we couldn't have given everyone more fun, but we did. The big disappointment is this little thing [Europa League], it's obviously a big one. "It would be a normal season if we finished fourth. Not great, but qualified. Sometimes you have to accept that. I've been here seven and a half years, things are not going right. Which is smooth and sometimes there are niches.
"It's good that I've been here for so long but you have to reinvent yourself."
