The Copenhagen Lions, double title holders of Danish champion are obviously in the race for the title by also holding first place in the ranking in the early morning but strongly competed by their evening opponent with the same number of points 55 units. With three days to go, this match could be synonymous with a coronation for one of the two teams. Note that the eighth finalist of the Champions League this season is riding an exemplary dynamic of four successive victories in the championship with at least 2 goals scored per match. To list them, firstly against Silkeborg 2-0, secondly for the reception of Aarhus 3-2, on the lawn of Silkeborg without possible dispute 0-3 and last weekend on the lawn of Brondby 1-3. The Wolves of Midtjylland are looking for their 4th championship title and they are clearly in the game this season by being neck and neck with their evening counterpart. Still in the comparison with Copenhagen, the Rouge et Noir are riding two successive victories in the elite against Brondby 3-2 and against Aarhus last weekend 2-1. The residents of the MCH Arena, however, are less confident when it comes to playing away, notably with two defeats on the pitch at Silkeborg 3-0 and against Brondby 2-1.

Former Bordeaux resident, Cornelius (2 goals in 16 appearances) will be absent due to injury, the same goes for Bardghji (7 goals in the league), Boilesen (6 appearances in the league), the long-term injured Khochovala and the young Sander (replacement goalkeeper ). Author of 9 goals in the league including 3 goals in his last two matches, the Norwegian international Elyounoussi will probably be there like the Icelandic international Oskarsson (7 goals, 4 assists in the league), the Portuguese Diogo Goncalves (7 goals, 2 caviars) and Tunisian international Achouri (4 goals, 13 goals in the league).

Relegated from the PL last year, Leeds were thinking of returning without having to go through the playoffs but they completely collapsed at the end of the regular season, leaving Leicester to finish champion and Ipswich runner-up. Indeed, the Peacoks have lost three of their last four regular days against Blackburn at home 0-1, a volley conceded on the lawn of Queens Park Rangers despite being very poorly positioned in the standings 4-0 and during the final day against Southampton Saints 1-2. Worse still, they have only won one of their last six Championship matches: 4 defeats, 1 victory and 1 draw. In the first leg, the residents of Elland Road brought back a pitiful 0-0 but which suits them as they now have the possibility of qualifying for Wembley at home this evening. Opposite, we find Norwich who have never been in the running for promotion but wants to play the role of spoilsport and sow discord. The residents of Norfolk also narrowly finished in 6th place with 3 additional points on Hull City, despite having gleaned only 2 points over the last 3 days with two draws at home against Bristol City 1-1 and for the reception of Swansea 2-2 and a defeat on the final day on the Birmingham meadow 1-0. In the first leg, Norwich carried out the poor operation of the evening by conceding a 0-0 draw, thus putting themselves in great danger this evening on the road.

During the first round, Leeds had to cope without Struijk and without Bamford (8 pawns in the Championship) both on the flank (injured) and this could be the case again this evening. Note, however, the presence of Summerville (3rd top scorer in the championship with a total of 19 goals without forgetting his 9 assists) and Daniel James (13 goals, 7 goals). On the other side of the median, Norwich will be without the crucial Barnes (6 goals, 5 assists), without the young talent Gibbs (very little used in any case) and without Onel Hernandez (2 assists in the league) absent since the end of February. To try to achieve the feat, the Canaries will be able to count on the services of the American Sargent (16 goals in the Championship), those of the Brazilian midfielder Sara (13 pawns, 12 assists), the striker Jonathan Rowe (12 goals) without forgetting to mention midfielder Fassnacht (crucial, 41 appearances in the Championship, 6 goals, 2 cakes).

Relegated last year from the elite after a real crux, Angers has a great opportunity to make up for it on this last day in order to restore the situation and put this 2022-2023 exercise among bad memories. The Sco is in fact in 2nd position in the ranking with 2 points ahead of the 3rd, Saint-Etienne, but with a worse goal difference +14 against +18 for the Greens. In other words, Alexandre Dujeux's men must win to keep their destiny in hand. Less well between February and mid-April, Raymond Kopa's residents have regained great momentum at the end of the season by winning 4 victories over the last 5 days. Only stopped by Paris FC 3-1, the Angevins revived by dominating Pau 2-1 and Annecy 1-2. For its part, Dunkerque obtained what it hoped for during this 2023-2024 season by winning its maintenance . However, the situation got off to a bad start during the winter break when the club was floundering in the red zone after a missed first part of the season. But everything accelerated after the winter break for the Maritimes who were able to string together successes to distance themselves from the last 4 places. Now 6th in the standings with 5 points ahead of the first relegated team, Luis Castro's men were dominated by Bordeaux 2-0 and Auxerre 1-3 before winning against Quevilly Rouen Métropole 1-2. Finally, last week, they fought back to get a point against Caen 2-2.

The Sco will approach this decisive meeting without the important Lopy and the very precious Ferhat (2 goals, 3 assists) who are both bothered by physical problems at the very end of the season. Otherwise, coach Alexandre Dujeux should be able to count on a complete group which should include the formidable offensive players who have had the best time for this team this season. We think of the Algerians El Melali (8 goals, 5 assists) and Abdelli (9 goals, 2 assists), the promising Lepaul (3 goals, 3 assists), the experienced Capelle (5 goals) and the formidable scorer Diony (15 goals). The last two cities also scored the 2 Angevin goals last weekend in Annecy.

AJ Auxerre will not have fared well in this Ligue 2. Relegated to the wire last year without having had the opportunity to defend its chances during the play-offs, it bounced back perfectly to claim the title of Ligue 2 champion this season by displaying a rather attractive face throughout this 2023-2024 season. After experiencing a small period of doubt a month ago, Christophe Pélissier's men were able to get their ideas back in place to win 3 victories in a row against Laval 4-0, Dunkirk 1-3 and Paris FC 2-0 . Last week, however, they were held to a draw by Amiens 0-0 without that stopping them from formalizing their title of champion. Just like their opponent of the day, US Concarneau will not have stayed long, not more, in this Ligue 2 championship. But unlike him, she will have to take the elevator in the other direction to return to Nationale 1, after a catastrophic end to the season. On the street since February, the Thoniers had only been able to take 2 points in 9 days. A rather terrible series which got the better of all the hopes of maintaining the Bretons who are now in 18th place in the ranking. But after being beaten 3 times by Bastia 2-0, Rodez 1-2 and Grenoble 2-1, Stéphane Le Mignan's men showed a great reaction of pride to defeat Bordeaux 4-2 on Last weekend.

For this last match of the season, Christophe Pélissier must still take into account the defections of goalkeeper No. 2 Adiceam and replacements Buayi-Kuala and N'Gatta. More annoying, center forward Ayé (10 goals, 5 assists) is also on the floor just like the Malian Sinayoko who quickly left due to injury last week. However, the Burgundian technician still has several interesting assets such as the solid defender Jubal (6 goals), the full-back Joly (6 assists), the excellent Gautier Hein (10 goals, 9 assists) and midfielders Perrin (7 goals, 9 assists) and Onaiwu (12 goals).

Bayer Leverkusen is preparing to complete a season that should remain in the club's legend. The latter has indeed just won the first German championship title in its history at the end of an extraordinary exercise during which it has not yet lost a single match, whether in the league, in the Cup or in the Europa League. Qualified for the finals of these two competitions which they will play next week, Xabi Alonso's men snatched 2 draws against Dortmund 1-1 and Stuttgart 2-2 before stringing together 2 demonstrations against Eintracht Frankfurt 1-5 and Bochum 0-5 to approach these last matches with a lot of confidence. Opposite, Augsburg also had a successful season. If it obviously cannot be compared to that achieved by Bayer, it is still very satisfactory for a team which is especially used to fighting until the end to keep its place in the elite. Before this 38th day, this team occupies a very correct 11th place and it can even bite its fingers for having failed in recent weeks because without this setback, it could have won a place in Europe. In the tough lately, the Bavarians have been dominated by Eintracht Frankfurt 3-1, Augsburg 0-3, Dortmund 5-1 and Stuttgart 0-1.

Bayer Leverkusen can a priori count on its entire group to tackle this final day. Only the crack Florian Wirtz (18 goals, 19 assists for club this season in all competitions) is the victim of a physical problem which could lead him to be preserved for this last meeting. On the other hand, the formidable pistons Frimpong (9 goals, 7 assists in the league) and Grimaldo (10 goals, 13 assists in the league) should be aligned in the same way as the midfielders Andrich (3 goals), Xhaka (3 goals) and Palacios (4 goals), the prolific Boniface (13 goals, 8 assists) and the Czech striker Schick (6 goals). For their part, Augsburg will have to challenge the champion without the important midfielders Rexhbecaj and Jensen and the defenders Framberger, Gumny and Oxford who are all on the flank at the moment in the company of the important Iago (ex-Bordeaux) and the starting goalkeeper Rahmen. Former Rennes goalkeeper Koubek should therefore be started. Finally, Swiss defender Mbabu is suspended this week. Up front, the excellent Demirovic, author of 15 goals and 9 assists, should also start in the same capacity as the formidable Tietz (8 goals, 4 assists). Also watch out for Swiss playmaker Vargas (4 goals, 4 assists).

Borussia Dortmund is preparing to play one of the most important matches in its history in 15 days. He will indeed challenge Real Madrid, at Wembley, in the Champions League final after having dismissed PSG in the previous round, winning both the first leg 1-0 and the return 0-1. But before this long-awaited duel, the BvB must finish current affairs in the championship where it is certain to finish in 5th position despite its last 2 defeats conceded during the last 3 days. Beaten by Leipzig 4-1, Edin Terzic's men were then able to win against Augsburg 5-1 but they were largely dominated by Mainz last week, with a considerably reshuffled team 3-0. For their part, Darmstadt is undoubtedly delighted to see the end of this 2023-2024 season looming. Back in the elite last summer, this team has never been able to raise its level despite a rather decent start to the season and it has known for a long time that it will not be able to stay there next year . Last in the standings with only 17 points on the clock, the promoted side were just able to win against Cologne 0-2 before posting 3 new clear defeats against Heidenheim 0-1, Wolfsburg 3-0 and finally Hoffenheim 0-6 this week. last.

The left side and former Rennais Bensebaini and the young unused Belgian midfielder Duranville are still forced to forfeit this match. All preserved during the trip to Mainz last week, the senior defender Matts Hümmels, the midfielder Sabitzer, the arrow Adeyemi, the Ivorian Haller and especially the top scorer Füllkrug (12 goals, 8 assists) should find the match sheet this weekend. The excellent playing master Julian Brandt (6 goals and 11 assists in the Bundesliga) and the historic Reus (5 goals, 5 assists) will also be present. The last city will play the last match of his career this Saturday in front of his audience, he who announced his departure at the end of the season. On the bottom side, potential starters Bader, Holland, Riedel (defenders) are all on the sidelines at the end of the season. The less important Polter, Manu and Hornby are also on the floor for this last match of the year while, on the contrary, defender Zimmermann is back after being suspended last week. On the other hand, it will be up to defender Müller to pass his turn for the same reason this week. The rare satisfactions of this team remain the young Swedish hope Vilhelmsson (4 goals) and the more experienced Skarke (8 goals) who tried to limit the damage this season.

2nd last year, Lens distinguished itself this year by participating in the Champions League. Unfortunately for Racing, it is not yet at all certain that it will be able to return to Europe next season. The Artesian club is in fact in 6th place in the ranking before the late match of OM which challenges Reims on Wednesday evening in a late match and which could overtake it in the ranking on goal difference. In recent weeks, Franck Haise's men have alternated between good and bad. Winners of Clermont 1-0 and Lorient 2-0 at home, the Sang et Or were defeated in Marseille precisely 2-1 before being held to a draw last weekend by Stade Rennais 1-1. Montpellier, for its part, is preparing to complete another fairly average season during which the club has preserved the essentials by retaining its place in the elite. Having been in difficulty for a while, Paillade has managed to raise the bar over the last two months to now occupy 12th place in the ranking with a nice margin of 11 points over the jump-off. Undefeated for 6 days, the Héraultais won in Reims 1-2 then they took a point against Nantes 1-1. Winners again in Toulouse 1-2, Michel Der Zakarian's players on the other hand saw their good series end last week, at home, against Monaco 0-2.

Franck Haise is still deprived of his solid Austrian defender Danso who is the victim of a physical problem at the end of the season, which should not prevent him from playing in the Euro. The full-back who arrived in January Chavez and the increasingly established young midfielder El-Aynaoui are also on the floor at the moment. On the other hand, the sometimes criticized striker Wahi is back after being suspended during the trip to Rennes last week. He could regain his place as center forward to the detriment of striker Saïd (7 goals). The very good Sotoca (7 goals, 5 assists) will also be available. Suspended last week, the young defender Mincarelli and the attacker Nordin (5 goals, 3 assists) are both back this Sunday evening for this final day. More annoying, the excellent conductor Savanier (9 goals, 6 assists) must serve a second match after missing the Monaco reception last weekend. The titular goalkeeper Lecomte and the important defender Kouyaté are in the infirmary at the moment. The Nigerian Adams (8 goals) but he scores very little after a great start to the season.

Lille clearly has nothing to be ashamed of its services offered during this 2023-2024 season. Quarter-finalist in the Conference League where it lost on penalties to Aston Villa, Losc also had a very good run in the championship since it appeared, at the dawn of this final day, on the 3rd podium thanks to a goal difference greater than that of Brest, 4th. Often irregular lately, the Mastiffs were beaten by Monaco 1-0 before winning in Metz 1-2. Subsequently surprised at home by a formidable Lyon team 3-4, the Northerners then sought a very important success against Nantes 1-2 last week to be best placed to play the Champions League before this last meeting. you of the season. OGC Nice, for its part, could regret its big air gap experienced in 2024 if it does not manage to grab the Champions League this weekend. The Gym had nevertheless reached the heights during the first part of the season by demonstrating unfailing defensive solidity, but this was shattered after the winter break. But after having fallen quite significantly in the ranking, the Aiglons have returned to the race for the podium in recent weeks thanks to their 3 successes won during the last 4 days played against Lorient 3-0, Marseille 2-2, Strasbourg 1- 3 and Le Havre 1-0 last weekend.

Losc must take into account several absences before these last few days. Of course, long-term injured Umtiti and Miramon and replacement Fernandes are still out of fitness. Already out last weekend, Turkish international Yacizi is not expected to return in time this Sunday while starting goalkeeper Chevalier has seriously injured his knee and he may even miss the Olympics with the Bleuets. Finally, winger Ounas should remain sidelined. Author of a double in Nantes last week, Canadian striker Jonathan David occupies 2nd place in the Ligue 1 scorers rankings with 19 goals to his name. The formidable Kosovar Zhegrova (9 goals, 6 assists between L1 and C4 this season) is also one of the great satisfactions of the season for the Mastiffs. Midfielder Beka Beka will of course be out of the Nice group for this match. We shouldn't see the designer Sofiane Diop there either, who has been very bothered by physical glitches this season. Otherwise, Francesco Farioli should be able to count on a full squad for this decisive match. A priori, the Nigerian striker Moffi, who has 11 goals to his credit in the elite, should be established at the forefront of the attack while the Ivorian Jérémy Boga (5 goals, 2 assists) and the winter recruit Cho could take place on the wings.

3rd in Serie A with 7 points ahead of 6th place, Bologna created a resounding feat by qualifying for the next Champions League. Thiago Motta's men were not expected to have such a celebration this season. Driven by a quality of play recognized by all, they continue to perform well in recent times, as evidenced by the only setback suffered by Inter in the last 16 days, for 5 draws and 10 victories. After dropping points against Udinese 1-1 and Torino 2-2, Bologna ensured their qualification for the C1 last weekend by winning at Naples 0-2. Juventus is currently 4th in the Serie Has and has the same number of points as his opponent of the day. Qualification for the next Champions League is therefore already in the bag. Long in the fight with Inter to obtain the Scudetto, the Old Lady had a disastrous second half of the championship. Indeed, the Bianconeri have only won 2 of their last 15 league matches, for 9 draws and 4 defeats. Last weekend, they waited for extra time to score the equalizer at home against bottom side Salernitana 1-1.

For Bologna, the important attacking midfielder Ferguson (6 goals and 3 assists in SA) is forced to withdraw, as is the long-time absent defender Soumaoro. Furthermore, the influential striker Zirkzee (11 goals and 4 assists in SA) has joined the infirmary. He should be replaced by winter recruit Odgaard (2 goals in 8 SA matches). Mute since the start of the season, Swiss winger Ndoye finally scored his first goal last weekend. The other wingers Saelemaekers (4 goals and 2 assists in SA) and Orsolini (10 goals in SA), replacements on the last day, are applying to start. Juventus remains without long-term absentee De Sciglio, injured. In addition, midfielder Pogba is still suspended for doping. On the other hand, senior defender Danilo is fit again while midfielder Fagioli, suspended for a long time following his involvement in a sports betting affair, can finally play again. Scorer in added time last weekend, French international Rabiot should start just like his midfield sidekick Locatelli, who was suspended during the Italian Cup final. The offensive duo could be composed of Chiesa (7 goals and 3 assists in SA) and Vlahovic (16 goals and 4 assists in SA).

Not at all at the level of its opponents this season, Salernitana is in last place in Serie A with only 16 points taken in 36 matches. The red lantern has known for several weeks now that it will play at the lower level next year. Completely demobilized, Toma Basic's teammates have not won a single championship match in 2024, 4 draws and 14 defeats. After having chained 4 losses in a row, they did not come far from an exploit last weekend. Indeed, Salernitana almost won on the Juventus field but conceded the equalizer in added time 1-1. Still concerned by the fight for maintenance, Hellas Verona is currently 14th in Serie A and is only 2 points ahead of the red zone. Marco Baroni's men have managed to raise their level for some time. This allowed them to pocket 4 victories in the last 10 days, for 2 draws and 4 defeats. After a valuable success against Fiorentina 2-1, Hellas Verona lost, in front of their fans, against Torino last weekend 1-2.

Many elements are missing at Salernitana this weekend. This is the case of the goalkeeper turned substitute Ochoa, the manager Candreva (6 goals and 6 assists in SA), the usual starters Bradaric, Maggiore and Gyomber and the substitutes Manolas, Boateng and Gomis. Added to this is the sidelining of Senegalese international Boulaye Dia (4 goals in SA). stay away from the group. Freewheeling for several months, the red lantern has the 19th attack and the worst defense in the championship. For Hellas Verona, the replacement striker Cruz (0 goals in 4 SA matches) remains in the infirmary while that sparingly used French striker Henry is suspended. On the other hand, the coach can once again count on the important midfielder Folorunsho, who has finished serving his suspension. In view since his arrival at the club in January, the Dutchman Noslin (4 goals and 2 assists in SA) is available. Attackers Bonazzoli (3 goals in SA) and Swiderski (2 goals in SA) are in the balance to start up front.
