dominant display in a big game, that the Europa League final will probably be contested by comfortably the richest clubs in it comes as no real surprise.
All of which means the Premier League is likely to have a frankly ridiculous six English teams in the Champions League next season, though Forest are less likely to be one of them after their deflating defeat by Brentford.
And a busy domestic weekend kicks off tonight with Manchester City looking to strengthen their Champions League qualification hopes when they host a Wolves side feeling all nice and safe following their charge away from the drop zone. Aston Villa (at home to Fulham tomorrow), Newcastle (at Brighton on Sunday), Chelsea (hosting Liverpool later that afternoon) and Nottingham Forest (at Palace on Monday) will want plenty to say about that though.
Elsewhere, we’ve got scrambles for Championship playoff spots and against relegation slots, a tussle for sixth in League One and two automatic slots and four playoff places still to be sorted in League Two. Whether your team’s on the beach or poised to put your nerves through the wringer, we’ll have previews and news through the day. Stick around.
