United's Champions League task made clear

One point is required to ensure a top-four finish, following the weekend's results, with Erik ten Hag's side beating Bournemouth 1-0 and Liverpool drawing 1-1 with Aston Villa.

The Reds face west London teams Chelsea (Thursday) and Fulham (Sunday) at Old Trafford, as we bid to ensure a return to the Champions League in 2023/24.

Fifth-placed Liverpool can still reach our current tally of 69 points and have a far superior goal difference, meaning there is still to work to do for United.

The Merseysiders are away to relegated Southampton on the final day and could still technically be overtaken in the standings by Brighton & Hove Albion, who play champions Manchester City on Wednesday.
