PL: Aston Villa Europa League Champions potentially giving PL and extra spot in CL

Aston Villa won EL and if they fail to finish top-4 i PL, it means that PL will be allocated an extra CL spot. 

Villa finish 5th if City beat them and Liverpool beat Brentford. The we have the following scenarios: Brighton take the 6th CL spot if they beat Man United and Bournemouth lose against Forest; otherwise Bournemouth take it. Sunderland take the 2nd EL spot if they beat Chelsea; otherwise Chelsea take it. Chelsea are virtuall guaranteed at least Conference League, and Brentford and possibly Newcastle have the chance to snap the Conference League spot, if Sunderland fail to beat Chelsea.

If Villa instead finish 4th, we have the following scenarios. CL is done and taken by the top-5 and Bournemouth will play EL (unless Liverpool are thrashed by Brentford). Brighton take the second EL spot if they win against Man United. If they draw, Chelsea and Brentford, and even Sunderland have chance to take the EL spot.
