Bundesliga has better results than Serie A and took over the position of Serie A in latest seasons. Serie A's clubs are trying to come back but they have yet succeeded with the mission.



I would say that Bayern has better results than Serie A and that is why Bundesliga is above Serie A, but Leipzig made some nice results last season as well. Actually, last five season results are measured for the competition list, and yes Bundesliga is going up with nice runs from Bayern and Leipzig in Champions League

complete list with actual state can be found on the link
https://kassiesa.net/uefa/data/method5/crank2020.html
but on the UEFA site as well for the season
https://www.uefa.com/memberassociations/uefarankings/country/seasons/#/yr/2020

seems that someone (Bert Kassies) is tracking it in real time and adding changes after each round, Germany was above Italy prior to last season, but Bayern score propeled tham more, Spain is high above others, but when season 15/16 results are erased at the end of the season, situation could change, but all top four countries have four teams in Champions League (seven teams in total)

Not your keys, not your coins!
You are right, La Liga is one of the most popular League in this world so they have 4 teams to qualify for the Champions League.
Popularity is not a factor to decide total positions for one nation (and its national league) in Champions League or Europa League. The net results of all clubs from one league (in one nation) in both Champions League and Europa League in some latest seasons will contribute to the score they get. Then the score will decide their ranks on the table and the corresponding positions in Champions League and Europa League.

The main issue is, can Barcelona finish on Top 4 by the end of the season? If they keep playing like this, I doubt they can finish on top 4 but for sure Barcelona is still a big team with many great players so I think it is just their bad time in La Liga especially there was no Messi last night and it shows that Messi's effect is still so big to Barcelona.
Barcelona might keep a position in top 4 as the mentality and performance of Messi looks like in improving form that can help the club.

Barcelona 1 - 1  Eibar
If they cannot finish in the top 3, they are not qualified for the next Champions League, right?
no, i think top 4 will qualify for the champions league, and barcelona are really close to get to the fourth place, they played 15 matches and they have 25pts, and both real sociedad and villarreal has 26 pts and they played 16 matches, which means if barcelona wins their late game, they will guarantee to be in the fourth place at least.

Barcelona 1 - 1  Eibar
Again Barcelona cannot play and get the result as expected. I think to be defeated at home isn't Barcelona style. Moreover, they are defeated by a small club. Barcelona youngsters are still far from their best performance, even Griezmann cannot play as good as when he was playing in Atletico previously.
What's wrong with this club? Do they have no target in this season? If they cannot finish in the top 3, they are not qualified for the next Champions League, right?

Agreement with @diegocosta for the termination of his contract.
The club wishes the striker the best of luck in the next stage of his professional career.
When I say Diego Costa, I say ATM. Seeing the article cited below the twitter post, he won with ATM 5 titles. Anyway, injuries, Felix and Suarez, less time to play, made things harder for him. Speculation says, he will move to EPL Arsenal maybe? or Brazil. Milik might replace him from Napoli.
Asenal is the closest to close the deal with Diego Costa, but Arsenal are not doing very good, maybe Diego Costa won't accept Arsenal's offer because of that, he doesn't only want to get paid, he wants to play too, so going to brazil is an option too.
Yeah Arsenal is lagging but lately it resumed the winning cycle and is advancing slowly in the ranking, he can find himself there pretty easily especially that he used to play in EPL before. Going to Brazil rather than EPL is like taking retirement for him, he could play there after a couple of years in Arsenal imo.

Nice Sevilla, they tied with Sociedad and Villareal although it still lacks 2 more games and jumped over Barca which failed against Eibar (1-1)... Barca is doing its best to make things easier for ATM and Real Madrid.

Sevilla 2 - 0 Villarreal
Barcelona 1 - 1  Eibar


Sevilla had a convincing victory over Villareal; while Barcelona struggles continue with a home draw against 15th placed team Eibar.

To be honest, I was quite surprised that Sevilla beat Villarreal, even though I predicted the result would end in a draw. But it turned out that
Sevilla could win the match convincingly, and made Sevilla move up to 4th in the table. Then Barcelona again wasted a point against Eibar's,
maybe Barcelona are not lucky because Martin Braithwaite missed a penalty and his goal was annulled in the 25th minute. This might have
caused Barcelona to mentally drop, and Eibar players took advantage by entering a goal first.

Fortunately Barcelona was able to equalize through Dembele's goal, but until the match ended Barcelona couldn't score another goal. And they
have to accept the results of the match ending in a draw, even though Barcelona should be able to beat Eibar with differences  in the quality of
the players.

Are you kind to your neighbor? Think it through
things are getting worse at Barcelona at the moment, koeman can stay on for a while but i would say to the management of Barcelona please send that man away he is just not good enough he is making a mess with this team exit koeman I think

Things are not that worse at Barcelona; i believe the recent incidences has just been purple patches and rewards of proper long term recruitment. My only worry is if Ronald Koeman is cut out to taka Barcelona back to the top. With Messi open to leaving; what will be the future of Barcelona

Barcelona stumbles AGAIN ... a scenario that is not new, but is repeated every time Barca stumbles .The team wastes opportunities, receives a goal, then searches for a equalizer quickly and after that they are afraid of receiving a second goal or losing more points, so the game is lost

Barca staying away from top of the table  and away even more of top 4.

Barcelona are behind right now 1-0, i think this is the best time to bet on them to at least get a draw, i don't think they're going to lose, odds aren't that high but i think it's worth it.

If anyone had taken that bet, they'd be smiling right now, Barcelona were able to equalize and the draw is what they'll have to settle for unfortunately, It wasn't a bad game if you ask me, and a win wouldn't have been undeserved.

In the end, it's yet another setback towards the title challenge, I've probably given up on any possibility of Barcelona winning it anyways.

This doesn't come as a surprise to me. Barcelona are surely doomed this season. They had golden opportunities to put this game under the wraps early in the first half only because Braithwaite is unable to score? To think he was thought to be Suarez's replacements makes it feel like a joke. Dembele just made it level again with around 19 minutes of playing time left. Greizman was wasteful as usual. Good thing he was replaced.

I saw this coming for a while now. Diego Costa had fallen out of favour at Atlético this season so its only right that he finds another club where his services would be needed and appreciated.

Diego Costa just can't seem to keep a cool head wherever goes, can he ? There are probably some sort of controversy about this, as I don't expect any club to mutually terminate a contract of over 50 Million Euro before it runs out, while the transfer window is only few days away.


Barcelona wast the oppurtunity to win the first half with a missed penality and a desallowed goal (both by braithwite) but they did a good half with 69% possesion and i think they can score in the second half

It's been quite an interesting game, without Messi and Barcelona should have taken the lead earlier in the half. They really need to win this to keep a reasonable distance from the league leaders.

The coach should have played Coutinho from the start of the match to make their attacking line more attractive. Without Messi in the game, I think a player like Coutinho can play more freely than usual. But unfortunately he only filled the bench for the first half. I hope he plays in the second half, braithwaite is very disappointing because his penalty failed.

I hope Barcelona can create the score in second half. They must win the game and go up to  top 4 today at standings .
