CL: Manchester United clinched champions league

Man United clinched a place in CL with their win against Arsenal, and the loss for Arsenal means their only chance to CL is via a winning Europa League.

Tottenham have a 4.6-point lead against Chelsea. They need eight points in the remaining four matches to clinch CL, while seven point likely will suffice (99%) depending on goal difference and Chelsea's results.

PL: City champions 17/18

As United lost against West Bromwich, they can no longer catch City, and City have secured the league title.

Chelsea can still reach top-4 but will need 15 points in last five games together with a collapse from Liverpool or Tottenham. Liverpool only need 6 more points in last four games to theoretically clinch top-4, while 5p will likely suffice. Tottenham need 9 more points in last five matches, while 8p will likely suffice.
