Still plausible that Italy get six - Atalanta play Roma, with whom they're level on points in the league tomorrow and Leverkusen in the Europa final.

There are still a few games left, but lose the first and win the second and there's a good chance they qualify via the Europa and Roma get the fifth league place.

Absolutely the same here.
Its been a fantastic season and although we're faltering,  just like every other team, it is about the whole season and not just the good bits.

It’d be so nice if Burnley got a result today and all that pressure just melted away for the last two games. But I can’t see it happening to be honest, I think they showed last week that their race is run so I expect Spurs to win comfortably.

It would be so nice to beat Liverpool with the most outrageously wrong VAR decision of all time in the 89th minute.  I’m talking 6 feet offside. 
That would top the season off nicely.

Another tasty goalline technology malfunction would be beautiful.
