Will we qualify for the CL?

[Footy-Vill]

After the European Results this week 5th place has all but confirmed for a Champions League place next season on co efficient success. Great news!

And this Guardian article backs me up:

“The Premier League is almost certain to have a fifth team in the Champions League next season, with the distinct possibility of a sixth too, after the completion of the last-16 ties in European competition.

Progress for Arsenal, Aston Villa, Manchester United, Tottenham and Chelsea, combined with the exit of Roma from the Europa League, means England are overwhelming favourites to claim one of two European performance spots (EPS) for Uefa’s elite competition next season

Uefa officials believe England are almost home and dry in the race for an extra spot, which is awarded based on performance in the association club coefficient, which aggregates the performance of a nation’s teams in European competition over the course of a season.

The coefficient is calculated by awarding teams in European competition points for winning or drawing, and bonus points for qualifying from one round to the next. Scores are then averaged out according to the number of teams from a given country that started the season in Europe.

The coefficient table has England scoring the most points this season, ahead of Spain and Italy. With the top two nations earning the EPS, in effect England must stay clear of Italy to confirm a spot. England have five teams left in competition. Italy have fallen to three, with Inter, Lazio and Fiorentina progressing.”
