While Man City and Liverpool are fighting a two-horse race for the Premier League title but the race for the top four has a number of teams involved.

Up until now, most people believed that Spurs have the third position on under their grasp but after the recent loss to Liverpool, the Lilywhites have slipped down to fourth.

Man United are also on the hunt for the top four this season but after their 2-1 loss to Wolves, things are not looking particularly sunny for Solskjaer and his men.

And speaking about the Premier League top four race, for Spurs man Jermaine Jenas has predicted the teams who will get to play in the Champions League next season.




“I think it is as toughs it gets for Arsenal away from home,” he told Premier League Productions(as reported).

“In terms of the places they are going to and what they are fighting for, it is hard.

“Burnley are fighting to stay up, Palace are still going to need wins, Watford after their FA Cup semi-final will be tough. Everton too are back in form.




“It’s going to be tough for everyone don’t get me wrong but that is my reasoning personally why I don’t think Arsenal will finish in the top four.




“For Tottenham, I feel that it has been tougher to play at Wembley with it not always being full.

“They have done well to get any type of atmosphere in there at times and I think this is going to give them the lift that they need.

“Yes the new stadium there may be teething problems but I think that home form might just help them.

“I still think it will be Manchester United with Tottenham and Chelsea in the Europa League.”




While Arsenal and Chelsea have the change of winning the Europa League and getting back into the Champions League but both Man United and Spurs do not have that luxury.




And probably Man United are the worst placed teams amongst all those fighting for the Premier League top four since their next Champions League game is against Barcelona and Solskjaer will need a miracle in order for his team to move through to the semi-finals.
