Same as the top three last week, to fight for fourth position is now there are three teams that chance. Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur, and Liverpool. City and Spurs at odds 4 points, while Spurs and Liverpool 3 points only. But Liverpool has already played one game more than both rivals.
Interestingly, this triangular battle are still going to involve all who are in it to compete with one another. So we can expect a huge fireworks explosion-or any-time City to meet the Spurs in the summer. While Liverpool do need a miracle-but with their appearance and condition now, there are still opportunities.
Let's see one by one chance this team in their remaining matches.
Manchester City
City in the final game of the season up and down like a rollercoaster. They can look great as when conquering Manchester United and Sunderland, or look too bad as when beating Liverpool 0-3. But definitely a victory over Blackburn Rovers at home to opponents yesterday, giving them little room to breathe.
In their five games remaining, the City will face the teams 'hard'. Starting from West Ham, Everton, Stoke City, and Bolton. Do not forget, in the middle there is the showdown against the Spurs on 10 May. Looking at this schedule, the chance of Manchester Blue large enough to maintain their position. However, their chances of slipping are also the same size. Edin Dzeko cs will prove what they can accomplish in these last five games. Is it good enough or will end in vain.
Tottenham Hotspur
Spurs had seen had the upper hand after a fall at the feet of Liverpool's City a few weeks ago. But the rows of a draw in the last two games to make them scattered four points behind his rival and looked very worried to return to qualify for the competition where they almost create a surprise this season.
Rest of the game they are also too horrible. In addition to the showdown against the City, the Spurs still had to face Chelsea and Liverpool. There is also Blackpool and Birmingham who are struggling in the lower zone. Opportunities lost or at least lose a lot of points wide open for the kids upbringing Harry Redknapp this. And if that's the case, saying goodbye to the Champions League should be said earlier. Determinants is this weekend against Chelsea. If you manage to win or at least steal the points, the Spurs are still in the competition zone. If you lose? The position could be threatened with their fifth Liverpool.
Liverpool
Awakening the Reds in the last few games quite impressive. The team is now successfully stuck to their distance with the Spurs just three points only. And lurking City with seven points. Looks much, but they certainly have not ended their chances. All I can do is continue to win every game remaining, hoping the Spurs and City slip-badly.
What is unfortunate is the number of games the kids care that Kenny Dalglish was already going out soon. They've played one times more than the two rivals at the top. This is definitely not a good omen. Pool remaining opponents are also not exactly easy. There are Newcastle United, Fulham and Aston Villa. And of course tight battle against Spurs at Anfield on May 15 later. This team needed a miracle (read: stupidity City and Spurs to lose points) to penetrate the top four. And then again, nothing is impossible in this season. Nothing.
Who will qualify for the Champions League next season? If they can maintain their current performance, foster children Roberto Mancini will feel the sweetness of the highest caste persainga in Europe next season. The advantage of four points and feels lighter schedule becomes a big chance that they should be able to exploit.
Spurs? Need a super great performance from them to be prying City. And if this can be done, then they escape this season will be far more memorable than last season. And if in fact Liverpool are finally getting this position, well, the football gods must have been very good with them.
What do you think? Who is eligible to qualify?
