What if the team currently top five are next to be at the Champions League, Nottingham Forest might be out because i feel their performance depreciating with time, the one team i am yet convinced about is Chelsea, they still have tough games ahead like playing Newcastle which both of them share the same points currently. Manchester City are making it into the Champions League, they are just three points away from Arsenal, if Arsenal should lose focus at any time, Manchester City are capable of finishing second, perhaps finishing with same points, but Arsenal leading with GD.
Although there is a possibility for Nottingham Forest to be eliminated from the Champions League zone for the rest of this season, the team still has to be a concern for several other teams such as Newcastle and Chelsea because if in today's away game Nottingham Forest is able to equal points with Newcastle and Chelsea. That could disrupt Newcastle and Chelsea's points in the remaining matches that are still in this season because Nottingham Forest will definitely improve their own performance for the rest of this season because they have seen the possibility of being eliminated from the Champions League zone at the end of this season.
