The battle for 3rd place

[taleofbluehalves]

Haha they're good at it.

I won't get too cocky until we know the result of Leicester at home. Real potential banana skin that. Hopefully Vinny will be fit to organise our defence.

An Arsenal win or draw would top off a perfect weekend

Effectively now we can afford to draw with Leicester and still finish above them. Great weekend so far

What advantage does 3rd place give over 4th?

No playoff match

Two wins and a draw from our last three games should be enough to seal it given our better GD

If the rags only get a draw or worse today then we will be guaranteed third if we get seven more points

OK thanks mate.

Third place is automatic Chimps league place. Fourth is a two game playoff with other foreign teams. Potential banana skin as you sometimes get big teams in the pot who e had a bad season.

Not having to play a qualifying round, 3rd place gets you into the group stage automatically.
