The Weekend Bangers – Avoiding Relegation

English Premier League

Arsenal vs Burnley
Burnley will match the point accumulated by Arsenal if they are to win this fixture, while Arsenal will double the gap in point between the two team it a victory.

Chelsea vs Liverpool
Beating Liverpool will keep Chelsea’s UEFA Champions League dreams alive. With a home victory, Chelsea will open a race for the top-four finish with Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspurs.

Not long left in the league for these Premier League teams to avoid relegation.

German Bundesliga
Who joining FC Koln to Bundesliga 2?

Italian Serie A

A victory for Chievo Verona and SPAL 2013 will mean Roma will put Cagliari in the drop zone if they win.
SPAL 2013 will need to win to avoid the relegation zone if Chievo Verona finds a victory at home against Crotone.
Hellas Verona is guaranteed relegation if they lose to AC Milan

Spanish La Liga

El Clasico
Barcelona vs Real Madrid
With the league title already wrapped up for FC Barcelona, the objective is to finish the season undefeated in the league. If there is anything Real Madrid can do to spoil that Barcelona’s dream, they will be doing it in this El Clasico.

French Ligue 1

There is contest all around Ligue 1. Paris St.Germain and Metz are the only teams that are mathematically impossible to move from their position in the 36th round of the season.

There is the top end of the league table contest to find the teams that will be playing Champions League football next season with Paris Saint-Germain.
As it stands, Lyon (2nd in the league) has the final Champions League direct qualification ticket from the league. Third place Monaco is just a point behind Lyon and only a point above 4th place Marseille. Monaco can still dream of Champions League football if they are to hold on to their league position. Marseille will have to settle for Europa League unless they find success in the final games of the season to take advantage of potential slip-ups by the teams above.
None of the teams can afford to drop points unless the other two teams in the contest do the same.

Lyon (2nd) vs Troyes (18th)
Caen (15th) vs Monaco (3rd)
Marseille (4th) vs Nice (7th)

A maximum of 9 points left for each team in Ligue 1. A team is yet to be relegated.
Metz vs Angers
It is a ‘must-win’ for Metz to avoid relegation. A point will not be enough to save Metz’s season.

Recently Promoted Amiens, Troyes, and Strasbourg are all within the drop-zone.

Amiens vs Paris St.Germain
It is not likely that newly promoted Amiens will suffer relegation, a Lyon victory against fellow recent promoted side Troyes will secure Amiens safety from relegation. Amiens other option is to beat Paris St.Germain in the next round. It doesn’t look like Amiens will be going down after a season up.

Recently-promoted Strasbourg can only afford a defeat to Rennes if Toulouse, Troyes, and Lille drop points.

Toulouse vs Lille
Fortunately for Strasbourg, Toulouse will be facing Lille in a battle to avoid dropping to Ligue 2. A victory for Lille will allow them to escape the relegation zone and trade their position with Toulouse. A Toulouse victory will help them move closer to safety

Primeira Liga

Sporting CP vs Benfica
With 2 league games remaining in the season and both teams tied on 77 points and the fight for Champions League football (and the possibility of a title if Porto does the improbable and lose their final two games of the season), Benfica and Sporting will face each other looking for a victory to protect their position in the league.  4th-place Braga will be able to take advantage or the result from this match if they can get a win against Rio Ave.
