One and a half before the end of the season, five teams are still fighting for three rows of the Champions League in England. And even the eighth can always hope for Europe. An overview.
Must be concerned about the participation of the Champions League with Mancity: Erling Haaland.
IMAGO / SPORTIMIME
FC Arsenal Meister FC Liverpool could not get involved in a real duel this season. But at least the Gunners finally qualified for the Champions League during the 1-0 victory against Newcastle on Sunday as the second team after the Reds. However, three tickets for the leading class must still be allocated via the League – for the five clubs apply, which only separates one point from the table shortly before the end of the season. Who needs what?
Newcastle United
3rd place / 37 games / 66 points / +22 goals
The Magpies, still seventh of the previous season, would have crossed a victory against Arsenal, they must now worry until the end. The 38th final match, the winner of the League Cup welcomes Table 13 on Sunday (5 p.m., live! At the kicker). FC Everton. The Champions League would have been reached with three points, and a draw should also pound the competition properly.
FC Chelsea
4th place / 37 games / 66 points / +20 goals
The Blues also have their fate in the Champions League in hand, but with the performance of the guests to the direct competitor of Nottingham Forest, The Blues.
Aston Villa
5th place / 37 games / 66 points / +9 goals
The fifth also seems to be fifth on the Champions League course, but it’s misleading: because the pursuers Manchester City still have a catch-up match in the posterior districts, the Emery team may not be sufficient in Manchester United. With three zero victories in a row, at least the form of the final of the season is right.
Manchester City
6. Place / 36 games / 65 points / +24 goals
The season for Pep Guardiola and his team will finally become a disaster? The champion last year resigned at the start of the leading class, surprised surprisingly the last chance for a title in the FA Cup final on Saturday and now threatens to miss the 2025/26 Champions League. But there are two advantages: due to the capture-up match against Bournemouth on Tuesday (9 p.m., live! At the kicker), Mancity does not depend on the shifts of other teams and also has the best difference in goals. The 38th match, he goes to FC Fulham.
Nottingham Forest
7. Place / 37 games / 65 points / +24 goals
The slightest chance of the first class has now surprised the Nottingham team, which has lost its good starting position with only two victories of the last seven championship games. With a trio at the end, at least the Chelsea opponent would be obsolete, but another competitor Patzen should still be exceeded.
Why Brentford & Co. can still hope for Europe
Like the winner of FA -Cup, Crystal Palace, the table table will qualify for the Europa League, the seventh table for the league of the conference. Exception: Chelsea wins the league of the conference and is not found in the League in the Top 5. Then the following applies: if the seventh blues, play with Crystal Palace and the sixth of the Europa League, the eighth of the conference league. If the blues are sixth, they play with Palace and the seventh in the Europa League, while England has no participant in Newcastle at less without league (which is initially qualified for the conference league as the winner of the League Cup) is the seventh; Then the eighth receives the place of the conference league. Brentford with Kevin Schade, Brighton with Fabian Hürzeler, Fulham with Bernd Leno and Bournemouth is currently fighting for this eighth place.
In addition, the winner of the Europa League final between Manchester United and the Tottenham Hotspur will certainly be in the Champions League in the new season. Because the two teams are stuck in the table table, the outcome of the final of the European Cup premises which are allocated via the League has no influence.
