The 2021 European 10000m Cup is set to take place at the University of Birmingham Athletics Track on Saturday (June 5) and will mark the 24th edition of the annual tournament. Mo Farah, the reigning 2016 Rio Olympic gold medallist in the men's 10000m event, will participate in his first track 10,000m race in nearly three years.

Farah will be eyeing qualification to Tokyo Olympics 2021 through the European 10000m Cup. The event also doubles up as a qualification event for British athletes. The top two runners will automatically qualify for the Tokyo Olympics 2021 provided they finish the race before the cutoff time of 27:28 minutes for men and 31:25 minutes for women.

The qualification mark for participating in the 2021 European 10000m Cup is 29:27.11 minutes for men and 34:22.33 minutes for women.

The Brits are the favorites to finish first in individual men's and team categories. The British trio of Mo Farah, Marc Scott and Sam Atkin are the overwhelming favorites to finish on the podium. However, they may be challenged by France’s Morhad Amdouni and Belgium's Bashir Abdi in the individual categories.
