Europe


Assuming we win, there are the results for the Brighton (home to Man Utd) & Brentford (away to Liverpool) games that determines where we finish.

Brighton win, Brentford win - 9th
Brighton draw, Brentford win - 9th

Brighton lose, Brentford win - 8th
Brighton draw, Brentford draw - 8th

Brighton lose, Brentford draw - 7th
Brighton lose, Brentford lose - 7th

If we draw we finish no higher than 9th. It doesn't matter if Chelsea beat Spurs as we beat Chelsea so we'd be on 54 points and Chelsea on 52.

If Sunderland beat Chelsea and...
Brighton lose to Man Utd (H) = Lads in Europe
Brentford draw/lose to Liverpool (A) = Lads in Europe

If Sunderland draw with Chelsea...
Guaranteed 9th place

Chelsea have a game in hand so can go above before we play them. Plus a draw would mean we can be overtaken by clubs on 49 points currently due to goal difference. A draw would more likely see us 10/11th

Right guys settle a bet for me

Is the lowest place European places can go down to 8th or 9th?

8th.

If Villa win the Europa and finish 5th we as a league lose a Europa place so it's still 8th for Europe. Obviously we can still finish 7th.

I thought if VIlla finished 5th and won the Europa, 6th would go to the CL, 7th and 8th to the EL and 9th to the conference.

Chelsea could overtake us and the mags could still over take us with 2 wins. And Everton and Fulham 🤣

That would make us 12th!

Win our match and either Man U win, or Liverpool avoid defeat and we're in Europe if we win our match. What an amazing position to be in.

Real chance guaranteed 12th place minimum on Sunday even if we lose….Its either we win or Chelsea win draw total useless to us
 
Beating Chelsea is a big ask and then relying on results but you never know. What an end to the season. I fancied us staying up but not like this, pushing for Europe right at the end.

Agh, balls man. Went too early (no).

Draw gets ninth assuming Chelsea lose to City and Everton/Fulham don't win on the last day.
