Barcelona and Atletico currently have the same number of points, namely 44, and both clubs still have one match postponed in the future, they must be able to make good use of it so they don't fall out of the top four of the standings. It is clear that Bilbao has the strength to directly threaten Barcelona and Atletico in the UCL zone, especially if Xavi and Simeone fleet loses more points in the future. However, I feel that the four teams currently occupying the top four will continue to be in the same place until the end of the season, regardless of who will manage to secure the title.

Ups and downs in performance are a very normal thing in football, especially if a club is experiencing a financial crisis like Barcelona, the decline in performance that befell them is very understandable. Luckily they were able to win the trophy last season with a financial situation that was not much different, but we have to understand and accept the fact that sometimes luck is not always on our side. I feel that Xavi deserves appreciation even though he failed to defend the trophy, it is not an easy job to be able to make Barcelona compete closely with Madrid, which has abundant sources of wealth.

The transfer of ownership that occurred within Chelsea has indeed changed many things, including the club vision and mission over a period of time. One of them is building a squad containing young players, they are recruited at a price that is not cheap, because they have the potential to continue to develop over time. In the last three matches, the Blues have consistently won and of course this is an asset for the players confidence to face a team like Liverpool. Statistically of course the Reds deserve to be favorites to secure full points, everything is in their favor, but maybe not with luck.

Looking back a little to the first half of the season, Chelsea managed to hold Liverpool to a draw at Stamford Bridge. Maybe tomorrow match will also repeat the same results, it is also possible that Liverpool will lose at home. I certainly understand that the Blues chances of winning are very low, but it is not impossible. Of course, each club has shortcomings, it must be admitted that in this aspect, Chelsea this season has more shortcomings. We'll see how the match ends, what is clear is that if Klopp fleet loses points, Man City will be very lucky in the future.

In the Bundesliga, the peak of Leverkusen challenge is of course when they have to face Bayern again, when they can get through without defeat then it could be said that Xabi squad can secure around 70% of their chances of winning the trophy. I'm pretty sure Leverkusen will continue to be consistent in the future, they have shown everyone up to now, although there is no guarantee that they will be able to create an unbeaten record throughout the season.

Several other rulers such as Dortmund also cannot be ignored, they also have the power to become a stumbling block for any team in the future. We have seen other surprises too, that a team like Bayern can also lose points unexpectedly, it does not rule out the possibility that Leverkusen could also experience this. The rivalry that has been created between Leverkusen and Bayern for now will be difficult for other contestants to shake, I also think it will continue until the end of the season.

I certainly hope that Leverkusen can break Bayern dominance, so that the Bundesliga has a new champion, not dominated by just one team every season.

On paper, Roma clearly has a higher chance of winning the match, even though they act as the visiting team. We know that Salernitana is the bottom team in the current Serie A standings, they have only been able to achieve two wins in 21 matches. The best opportunity for De Rossi to show off his tactical skills and quality is to face relatively easy opponents, but if Roma lose points the manager will also not be safe from sharp criticism from fans.

An additional 3 points will bring Roma up to third place temporarily, because several other teams still have one match postponed. For Salernitana themselves, they will also try their best to out of the brink of degradation, additional points are a fixed price to survive this threat. I think this match is going to be very interesting, and it will definitely be open.

Roma still has a chance to finish in the top four of the standings and play in the UCL next season, the difference in points with Atalanta, who is currently in fourth place, looks like it could be reduced. This all of course really depends on De Rossi himself, where now he is the person most responsible for the ups and downs of the team performance.

I agree to say that Xavi did not completely fail at Barcelona, he was able to manage a club that was experiencing a financial crisis so that it did not collapse, demanding a lot of things from him meant having to support him to the maximum in terms of budget. I think that about Xavi current condition, and I feel that only a few coaches are willing to take up the offer that comes from Barcelona management, because they will definitely be required to be able to present trophies with a limited squad, and cannot do much to improve the depth of the squad.

The squad depth that Xavi currently has is not bad, but to compete with Madrid in the race for trophies will certainly not be enough. We have seen Barcelona lose twice this season to Madrid, which is proof that Barcelona strengths need to be improved. Xavi is certainly not silent and he has worked at all risks, including promoting several potential young players from the academy, of course we understand what they can offer the club because their experience is still very minimal.

However, I am sure that the transition pattern implemented by Barcelona by promoting young players from its academy, will bring them to a better level in the future. This is the healthiest policy to deal with the financial crisis, even though we know that this method cannot provide success every season, but when they mature, glory like in the Pep Guardiola era will be repeated again.

It is understandable why Klopp decided to part ways with Liverpool at the end of the season, family reasons being one of his main considerations. Many coaches do this, and there are also those who continue to be unemployed from football, for example Zidane. Pep Guardiona also chose to step away from football after achieving success with Barcelona, and Klopp decision to part ways with Liverpool is very acceptable.

The pros and cons certainly cannot be avoided among fans, but I really applaud the attitude and professionalism that Klopp has shown, notifying the club of his decision early, so that he can prepare well for the transition period in the future. Then what becomes more interesting to discuss after the announcement of Klopp separation is his successor, who is the right person to take on the next responsibility.

We see several names have been linked with the Reds at the moment, including Xabi Alonso. But despite all that, whoever will be the manager of the Reds in the future, must accept the fact that it will be very difficult to change roles with Klopp who already has a big influence on the team. So I wouldn't be surprised if next season Liverpool will often experience ups and downs in performance, because everything requires readaptation.

On the one hand, I feel that PSG best potential for winning the UCL trophy has passed, with the departure of Messi and Neymar last season. However, Mbappe is the hope that is now available, that is, if the management and club president succeed in convincing him to renew his contract and stay longer at PSG. In terms of experience, Luis Enrique is very reliable, he has proven his tactical abilities in the past when coaching Barcelona. PSG certainly really supports Enrique's efforts to present this prestigious trophy, they have a lot of budget to meet Enrique demands in shopping for the players he wants.

We have absolutely no doubt that PSG can win the Ligue 1 trophy again, because as we already know, other Ligue 1 clubs cannot match the depth of the squad built by PSG. On the other hand, if Mbappe decides to leave at the end of the season, I think Enrique can buy another good player, even though they won't get a player as good as Mbappe. Enrique must be able to take advantage of Mbappe company for the remainder of this season, to bring PSG to compete for the UCL trophy even though they are not the favorites.

Speculation about the future of Jurgen Klopp, Xabi Alonso and Jose Mourinho is being discussed intensively, and most recently Xavi Hernandez has also stated that he will end his tenure at Barcelona. Of course, before they sign a contract with a new club, there will be lots of rumors circulating in the media, as usually big names are always interesting to discuss. It could also be that with the abundant outflow of funds invested by PIF in SPL, the names I mentioned above also have the potential to get offers to move there. Indeed, this opportunity is considered very low, but they can get high fees if they want to come to SPL.

Klopp returning to Germany also sounds reasonable, and Dortmund and Bayern Munchen are the right options to continue his career there. If there are only two choices then I hope Klopp would be better off choosing Bayern, Dortmund likes to sell good players every season, Klopp will have difficulty achieving success if he returns to his old club, because the club management habits have not changed. Regarding Xabi, it looks like he will stay for one more season with Leverkusen, he definitely doesn't want to leave too early after building the club, especially if Xabi succeeds in winning trophies.

On the other hand, Mourinho is reportedly being approached by Newcastle, I feel he would be a good fit for the club, because they are building strength to be able to win the EPL title under their new owners. Apart from that, Xavi future is still full of question marks, maybe he will train a club outside Spain to continue his managerial career after officially parting ways with Barcelona.

It seems like the Man United players are not free from problems and like to cause trouble, instead of improving their performance according to the large salaries they get every week, they actually seem relaxed about the situation they are currently experiencing. Rashford performance this season is far from what was expected, he is not playing well and is absent from training again, Ten Hag should reserve him for the next few matches. It looks like Rashford will be like Sancho in the future, because of course he will receive sanctions from the club due to his own actions.

Ten Hag itself currently needs players with the expected standards, able to contribute by bringing out all their potential to complete the second half of the season better. Ten Hag is known as a coach who really emphasizes discipline, Rahsford has to change his style off the field if he doesn't want to be on the bench for a long time, even though we know he is a big star on the team.

Dortmund, after being thrown out of the top four of the standings for a long time, is now back in a more appropriate place, unlike previous seasons where Dortmund has always been a tough competitor for Bayern Munchen in the race for trophies, But seasons change and ups and downs in performance cannot be avoided. Leipzig defeat to Stuttgart gave Dortmund the luck to penetrate the UCL zone, Edin Terzic fleet managed to take advantage of the available opportunity, by beating Bochum and securing 3 points. Fullkrug was the hero of the victory, he managed to score 3 goals and ensure additional points for his team.

In the future, Dortmund has the opportunity to overtake Stuttgart, because now the two are only 1 point apart, but this can only be done if they continue to consistently win. we know that Dortmund chances of enlivening the competition for the Bundesliga trophy are very difficult, but they must be able to finish in third place in the standings when the season ends. it's very reasonable to say that, because Leverkusen and Bayern will most likely continue to be at the top of the rankings, regardless of who will become champions.

Klopp made a statement to resign at the end of the season when Liverpool was in good condition, while Xavi said it after Barcelona were beaten by Valencia at home, a situation that was reversed between the two. will choose to take a temporary break from the world of coaching before starting a new adventure. It could be that Klopp has also received an offer to coach a new club after parting ways with Liverpool, but we haven't received any news about where he will go next. It might sound reasonable if Klopp would go to Barcelona, but he can't do much there because the club is experiencing a financial crisis.

Xavi resigned because he felt unable to bring Barcelona to success, at the same time he was not supported by an adequate budget to build a squad according to his wishes. Compared to Liverpool, I think it is more difficult for Barcelona to find a new successor to serve as head coach, because we can see that the financial background of the two clubs is very different. I wish both of them the best for the rest of this season, and of course in the coming season after officially separating, we will definitely miss them both on the sidelines.

Barcelona best effort this season is to maintain its position in the top four of the standings. It is very difficult for Barcelona to compete to defend the trophy, where Madrid and Girona appear very consistent. We can see the latest defeat to Valencia as another setback to their strength, conceding 5 goals in one game is something that needs to be underlined, Xavi has stated that he will step down as head coach at the end of the season. It is true that the financial crisis they are experiencing has had an impact on the club growth, Xavi steps have been hampered in the transfer window because he does not have an adequate budget to recruit new players.

Maybe in the Champions League they can get past the round of 16, Napoli certainly have better attributes than opponents like Valencia, Xavi must motivate his squad so they can show a different performance. Barcelona defense line is very porous, Xavi has tried his best to field his best squad, but we can't blame him completely. Currently, Barcelona is 8 points adrift of Girona and 10 points from Madrid, ATM and Bilbao are threats that must be carefully watched because they have the potential to shift their position in third place.

Mourinho does not rule out the possibility that he will one day move to Saudi, currently he is still unemployed and without a club. Maybe if one of the SPL clubs is willing to provide budget support to be able to build a squad that suits Mourinho wishes, as well as a large salary, then I think Mourinho will accept it. On the other hand, it is rumored that Mourinho will be approaching to Newcastke, but we cannot use that as a guide, the future of the Portuguese coach is still unclear. It's true, that previously Mourinho was also linked with Napoli, we know that the Napoli President still seems dissatisfied with the performance of their new coach Walter Mazzarri.

The SPL looks like it will spread its wings to recruit top European coaches, they will not only focus on players. Of course they want the image of the club and the Saudi Pro League to continue to improve, by recruiting a coach of Mourinho caliber they can gain instant fame. To be honest, I want Mourinho to just coach the national team, at club level he has experienced various trophies with the clubs he has coached.

An interesting match is underway, bringing together two tough teams, namely Marseille and Monaco, the temporary score is 1-0 for Monaco win, it looks like they can confirm their position to be stronger in the top four of the Ligue 1 standings. Wissam Ben Yedder managed to score a quick goal in the 7th minute, I think it really affects the mentality of the Marseille players, there is a possibility that Monaco will win this match.

However, this match is still very long, because it has only been running for about 20 minutes, there is plenty of time for Marseille to turn the situation into a draw, and force Monaco to share the points. We'll see how this match ends, but it is very likely that Marseille move to get closer to the top five in the standings will have to be delayed, Monaco managed to appear aggressive and has not shown any signs of relaxing its attack.

I think Liverpool players will be motivated to fight to the maximum, with the aim of making their farewell to Klopp beautiful. Finding a successor of Klopp caliber in the market is very difficult, even though several well known names such as Zidane and Conte are still unemployed, and now we are hearing rumors that Xabi Alonso is worthy of taking over as head coach at Anfield. I think Liverpool will have great success this season, and Klopp will certainly be very happy if his intentions are achieved.

On atoher hand, if we look at the current situation, it is not only Leverkusen that will be a tough challenge for Liverpool to win the Europa League. As we know, teams that are on the play off route also deserve to be considered favorites, say Milan, which has a flashy reputation at european level. So far, The Reds are still very consistent, their performance is quite stable even though Salah is absent, we'll see how Klopp fares at the end of the season, whether he will be lucky at the end of his tenure.

Dominating the match with ball control of up to 75 percent, taking 28 shots and 9 of them on target, Leverkusen had to be willing to share the points with Monchengladbach. As a result, the difference in points with Bayern Munchen became 2, certainly not the result that Xabi and his team, but the defensive scheme displayed by Monchengladbach has thwarted Leverkusen efforts to secure full points. However, Leverkusen unbeaten record continues, but they also need to increase their creativity in the future, so they can penetrate the defense of a team that uses a low block system.

Now the fire of competition between Leverkusen and Bayern is burning again in the hunt for trophies, we will wait to see how Monchengladbach will act when they meet the Bayern fleet next week. In my opinion they will also return to playing defensively and rely on counter attacks, but Bayern have an attack line that I think can penetrate their solid wall. Meanwhile, Leverkusen will face Darmstadt next week, in my opinion this is an easy match, because Darmstadt is just the bottom club in the standings at the moment.

Inter Milan still has two matches in store which will make the difference in points with Juventus later become 4, provided they can beat Fiorentina and Atalanta. Juventus is still in the race to challenge for the Scudetto even though in the latest match they were forced to draw with Empoli, Aleggri fleet was unlucky to secure full points because they received a red card. It is very difficult to win when you are outnumbered by players even though Empoli is just a mediocre club that is in the degradation zone.

I'm sure if Juventus doesn't lose any of their players they can beat Empoli, but sometimes luck doesn't always side with the dominant force, and of course the red card that Arkadiusz Milik received was unexpected. Inter will face Fiorentina, a match which in my opinion is quite troublesome for Inzaghi fleet. Juventus hopes that Fiorentina can hold Inter to a draw tomorrow, that is one hope so that the point difference does not become wide.

The depth of Madrid squad was the key to victory when they beat Las Palmas, Ancelotti rotation options really worked according to expectations. Bellingham absence is really felt, but what is more important is that Madrid can secure full points and return to the top of the standings by overtaking Girona. If Michel squad wins their match against Celta Vigo, then they will again take over the top position, because Madrid still has one match postponed.

Las Palmas, which holds the status of a promoted club this season in La Liga, managed to provide an interesting resistance against Madrid. Losing narrowly to a club as big as Los Blancos is not a shame, they have tried their best in my opinion. Las Palmas position in the standings is currently quite good for a promoted club, ranking 8th with 31 points collected from 22 weeks. If we compare their consistency with Sevilla, we will see a significant difference.

Brahim Diaz played quite well as a rotation option for Bellingham, but what caught my attention was Arga Guler. Ancelotti has gradually given him more playing time, I think Guler needs to mark his debut going forward by scoring goals. I think there is no doubt at all regarding Madrid performance in the future, if Ancelotti finds his players in a fit condition without any players experiencing injuries.

The journey to create a beautiful ending between Klopp and Liverpool at the end of the season will start by facing Chelsea in week 22. We understand that Man City will always try to defend the trophy, as will a team like Arsenal who wants to experience it again after fasting for a long time 20 years, where we also cannot ignore the fact that Aston Villa can also create new history. Klopp, who wants to part ways at the end of the season, is now on the right track to present the trophy, where Liverpool is the favorite in every competition he participates in.

If Liverpool fans think they will be fine after Klopp leaves then they are right, it's just that they need appointed the right coach to keep the transition as smooth as possible. There is also the possibility that Liverpool will experience ups and downs in performance, all of this is an inseparable part because new coach always require adaptation time. Klopp will leave and leave a legacy in the form of quality players, but I doubt their star, Salah, will still be at the club after the season ends.

Now many people are speculating about Xabi Alonso future, we know he is still under contract with Leverkusen until 2026, and they are currently having an impressive season in the Bundesliga and Europa League. Having played for Liverpool and played in the EPL, the Reds are considering working together for a long period of time. However, for now this is still just a rumor, but Xabi does not rule out the possibility of returning to Anfield someday, currently he is happy at Leverkusen.

Everything looks dark for Almeria this season, after being beaten again by Alaves with a score of 3-0 in front of their own supporters. So their poor record continues, in fact their performance is very far from their last visit to the Santiago Bernabeu. So it is quite reasonable to say that Almeria will most likely be degradation, because their next two matches are quite tough, against Valencia and Bilbao. The additional three points for Alaves are very useful, as they are almost breaking into the top 10 in the standings and are now only separated by the number of goals from Getafe.

Almeria is a source of points for other La Liga contestants, their best performance is only stuck in a draw, victory has become a rare thing this season for them. Last season Almeria was able to survive the degradation zone with a difference of one point from Valladolid, closing the season with a collection of 41 points with details of 11 wins, 8 draws and 19 defeats. But now they are only able to pocket 6 points from 6 draws, not talking about winning at all. Their performance is very much down from last season, so it is not an exaggeration to say they are almost certain to be relegated.
