In a key match in the 37th round of the English Premier League that ended on May 14, Beijing time, Aston Villa chased two goals in a row at home, drew 3-3 with Liverpool, and grabbed a key point on the way to the fourth. This also puts them in an absolute position in the competition for Champions League qualification with Tottenham.
At the end of this round, Villa accumulated 68 points in 37 rounds and ranked fourth. With a game in hand, they are already as many as five points ahead of fifth-placed Tottenham, and Villa currently have a goal difference of 20 compared to Tottenham's 12.
Tottenham Hotspur has two games left in the season and will host a make-up match with defending champion Manchester City in the early morning of the 15th. The other is a final round away to Sheffield United, who have already been relegated. Tottenham will need to win both games if they want to overtake Villa and qualify for the Champions League.
This also means that Tottenham will be out of the tournament early if they lose or draw against Manchester City. And with goal difference falling behind by a large margin, Tottenham will also be hoping that Crystal Palace will beat Villa at home in the final round.
As for Villa, as long as they beat Crystal Palace in the final round, whether Tottenham win their remaining two games or not, Villa will definitely qualify for the Champions League next season. The data agency predicts that the probability of Aston Villa holding on to the top four has been as high as 96.24%, and it can be said that Tottenham Hotspur's battle for the top four has reached a dead end.
