5️⃣ spicy fixtures you must watch this weekend 🌶

Coventry vs Middlesbrough

The Championship’s final day is here and there’s plenty still to be decided. England’s second tier has again been impossible to predict and five teams are competing for the final two play-off places heading into the final fixtures.

Two of those teams meet as Coventry host Middlesbrough. Both have endured near misses when it comes to promotion in recent years as the sides seek to end exiles from the Premier League. The Sky Blues will book a play-off place with a win – barring wins for Bristol City and Millwall, with the latter overseeing a four-goal swing.

Middlesbrough, meanwhile, must win to stand any chance of making the top six. Two teams that must win to achieve their ambitions go head-to-head in a shootout.

Real Sociedad vs Athletic Bilbao

The Basque country will pause this weekend as Real Sociedad and Athletic Bilbao meet.

Sociedad’s season has stuttered with just two wins in their last eight, a loss of form that has seen drop to 10th. Their fierce rivals are closing in on Champions League qualification, but head into this weekend’s game smarting from a 3-0 defeat to Manchester United in the Europa League semi-finals. With their dream of a European final at their home stadium appearing over, Bilbao must bounce back to claim a coveted Champions League berth.

Chelsea vs Liverpool

Chelsea vs Liverpool has been one of the Premier League’s defining rivalries this century, as the two teams have tussled on the highest stages.

Liverpool’s coronation as champions was confirmed last weekend and the Reds can afford to ease up over the run-in. There’s no such luxury for Chelsea, however, who are in tight battle for Champions League qualification. Enzo Maresca will hope his team can take advantage of a newly-crowned Liverpool side who may have taken their eye off the ball.

Spice rating: Hot 🌶🌶🌶

Bologna vs Juventus

Serie A’s race for Champions League qualification is even tighter than the Premier League.

Just three points split the sides from third to eighth, with only four games to go. Fourth-placed Juventus head to fifth-placed Bologna this weekend in a clash neither side can afford to lose.

Bologna have combatted the loss of head coach Thiago Motta to Juventus last summer to challenge for the Champions League again. It’s a move that failed to work out as planned for Motta, who was sacked after just nine months in Turin. Igor Tudor has been tasked with getting the Old Lady over the line.

Spice rating: Fire 🌶 🌶 🌶 🌶

RB Leipzig vs Bayern Munich

Bayern Munich are on the verge of winning the Bundesliga with just one win required.

After being dethroned by Bayer Leverkusen a year ago, Bayern have bounced back and are agonisingly close to reclaiming the crown. RB Leipzig will be no walkover, however, with Die Roten Bullen competing for Champions League football.

Bayern will also have to cope without leading scorer Harry Kane, who is suspended.
