Football: In these leagues in Europe, the top clubs stumble

Atlético Madrid can win the title in Spain. In France, the Lille OSC is facing the championship sensation

While the title fight in the Bundesliga only led to a racing heart to a limited extent, it crackles in other European leagues.

Around in Spain. Here Atlético Madrid leads the table before the last matchday next weekend. City rivals Real are two points behind in second place. In the remote duel, Atlético and coach Diego Simeone at Valladolid can perfect the championship on Saturday (6 p.m.). The proud Real, on the other hand, has to hope for a slip and at the same time win the home game against Villarreal.

It is still too early to speak of a changing of the guard. But like in Spain, some top European clubs are currently stumbling.

In France Lille OSC is working on a huge surprise. The club is one point ahead of Paris Saint-Germain. On Sunday (9 p.m.) Lille have the title in their own hands, a win against Angers SCO would mean the fifth championship in the club’s history. PSG competes at Stade Brest. The club from the French capital were considered the big favorites ahead of the season. However, PSG’s self-confidence is likely to have been boosted by the cup success: On Wednesday, Paris won the final against AS Monaco 2-0.


In Italy it is already certain that Inter Milan will oust Juventus Turin from the top after nine championships in a row. The Turin superstar Cristiano Ronaldo even have to worry about qualifying for the Champions League. The team of coach Andrea Pirlo is only in fifth place with one point behind the fourth SSC Napoli. It is not clear whether Pirlo will be allowed to keep his job. After all, he was able to advertise himself by beating Atalanta Bergamo 2-1 in the cup final on Wednesday.

Jürgen Klopp has to get into England not worry about his job. But he should qualify for the premier class with Liverpool. Before the last matchday, the Reds are fourth, level on points with fifth Leicester (66). Chelsea FC are in third place with 67 points. Manchester City are already sure of the title.

The top clubs are still trembling, but: Due to the Champions League reform, Turin and Liverpool will no longer have to worry from 2024. You would slip into the competition even as fifth using the coefficient rule.
