JAKARTA - Manchester United's chances of competing in the European Champions League next season remain small even though they have just won 3-0 over Brentford at Old Trafford Stadium on Tuesday, May 3 early morning WIB
The Red Devils are currently still in sixth place despite taking home three points from that clash. Ralf Rangnick's team collected 58 points or five points adrift of Arsenal who fills the last place in the top four and three points from Tottenham Hotspur in fifth place.
Mathematically, MU's chance in the European Champions League still exists. However, that opportunity is very dependent on the results of the match obtained by the London Cannon.
When compared, Tottenham's chances of getting to the European Champions League are even greater. The reason is, that Spurs and Arsenal still have four games remaining, while MU only has the opportunity to add six points in the two remaining matches they have.
If successful in winning the remaining two matches, then the maximum points collected by the Red Devils is 64. That number can only match one draw obtained by Arsenal and one victory for the Spurs.
Arsenal itself is in their best form at the moment. Mikel Arteta's side has won three in a row recently, including beating Manchester United and Chelsea.
Looking at the four remaining matches, the London Cannon has a chance to lose points only when they face Spurs later. However, the three other opponents they will face are young to gain points, namely Everton, Leeds United, and Newcastle United.
Meanwhile, the Spurs have a steeper road in their bid to win the top four tickets. In addition to meeting Arsenal, Antonio Conte's troops still have a schedule to meet Liverpool.

However, MU can not expect much with the poor results of the Spurs. The reason is, if you want to go to the Champions League next season, the Red Devils actually have to hope for the bad results obtained by Arsenal.
To get a ticket to the Champions League, MU must expect Arsenal and Spurs to lose in the remaining four matches and they must win in the remaining two matches. So it's a bit difficult to see the Red Devils in the Champions League next season.
