The Premier League title and relegation battles look all but over, but the Champions League race remains incredibly tight.
With just a few games to go, the chase to seal a place in UEFA‘s top competition is as intense as ever.
The battle for the Champions League is likely to go down to the last day Look at how close the battle for those Champions League places isThere are many teams involved, meaning that any dropped points between now and the end of the season could be crucial.
As it stands, there are just three points separating seventh and third, so it’s going right down to the wire.
England are guaranteed another spot in the Champions League, so there is an extra place on the line.
Here, talkSPORT.com looks at the race for the Champions League.
Nottingham Forest – 3rd – 60 points
For the majority of the season, it had looked as if Nottingham Forest would finish third.
Nuno Espirito Santo’s men were miles ahead of the chasing pack, but back-to-back defeats have dragged them right back into it.
In fact, it had appeared as if Forest had lost momentum, but a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur has propelled them back into third.
A place in the Champions League is now entirely in their hands.
They face Chelsea on the last day at home, which has the potential to be the club’s biggest league game in their modern history.
Predicted finish – 6th

No matter what happens in the rest of Newcastle’s season, the Magpies have finally ended their trophy drought by winning the Carabao Cup, the club’s first silverware since 1969.
Eddie Howe and his players have made themselves Tyneside heroes, but the attention now switches to turning the campaign into an unforgettable one by making it into the Champions League.
The Magpies have been inconsistent this season in terms of results and performances, but when they are on it, they can beat anyone.
And in Alexander Isak, they have one of the best strikers in the world.
If you look at their remaining fixtures, there are some huge games against Chelsea and Arsenal.
But with the momentum of the cup win behind them, you can see Newcastle taking getting back into the Champions League.

Not since Pep Guardiola first joined Man City have they endured such a bad season.
Of course, by most standards, being in contention for a Champions League spot with a few games to go would be good.
However, after winning the Premier League title four times in a row, to be so far off the leaders is a poor season for City.
They are also set to be without Erling Haaland for the rest of the campaign.
But despite this, they still have more than enough quality to get the points they need to seal a Champions League place.
They do have to play Aston Villa still, but any fixture for City is winnable.

It has been a strange first season for Enzo Maresca with Chelsea starting brilliantly under him and looking to be genuine title contenders.
They then suffered an awful December, losing to Fulham and Ipswich before starting to pick things up again.
Nicolas Jackson has also returned from injury, giving the Blues a much-needed boost in forward areas.
However, in their last four games, they face Liverpool, Newcastle, Manchester United and Nottingham Forest.
In the end, it is these matches that could cost Chelsea and lead to them missing out on Champions League football despite being in such a strong position earlier in the campaign.

Unai Emery‘s Villa are into the semi-finals of the FA Cup and made it to the last eight of the Champions League, where they narrowly lost to Paris Saint-Germain.
A place in the top five isn’t totally out of the question either, so it’s possible the Villans will enjoy their greatest season in a long time.
They have been a bit inconsistent this year, but their January transfer window was excellent, and it has ensured they are in a great place to challenge come the end of the campaign.
A 3-0 away win over Brighton was a top performance and was followed by a 2-1 win over Forest before they smashed Newcastle 4-1.
They do have some very tricky fixtures coming up against City, but they are the in-form team at the moment, and it is hard to see them missing out.
