Have you checked La Liga standings?
That's okay if you exclude Atletico and Barcelona for competing in the title. But reaching UCL zone isn't too difficult for them, Atletico is in 4th place (UCL zone) and Barcelona is in 6th place. To secure UCL zone, Atletico and Barcelona are competing with Real Betis and Real Sociedad. I am very optimistic that both Atletico and Barcelona have enough capacity to beat those two clubs. Even they are not in the best form, they still have enough time to go back to UCL zone. There are still 18 remaining matches, you shouldn't be afraid that Atletico and Barcelona have no opportunity to beat Real Betis and Real Sociedad.
Getting rid of Barcelona and Atletico for now is too early. I agree with you. The difference in class points between number there to seven is not much. Atletico and Barcelona were unstable a few weeks ago. In the last five games they have lost three times. Good development is actually at Barcelona, Since Xavi came Barcelona little changed they have not lost in the last five games. Their chances are still very much, they are better and have the experience to enter the UCL Zone in the final grades. Barcelona still deserve to progress to UCL next season.That's okay if you exclude Atletico and Barcelona for competing in the title.
