Title: Real Madrid (84, 34) were crowned champions on Saturday when they won and Barcelona (73, 34) lost.
Champions League (4): Real Madrid and Barca have now been joined by Girona (74, 34), who beat Barca to move into second on Saturday.
The gap in the two-horse race for fourth place widened to six points last weekend with Atlético Madrid (67, 34) winning at home to Athletic Club (61, 34) — and both won this weekend.
Europa League (2): Athletic won the Copa del Rey and are almost certain to finish in the top six, which means the place for the cup moves over to the league — fifth and sixth will enter the UEL.
Either Atlético or Athletic will take one of the places, with Real Sociedad (54, 34) sitting in sixth. La Real have Barcelona coming up next and are being chased by Real Betis (52, 34) and Valencia (47, 34).
Real Sociedad also have to play both Valencia and Betis in their final three fixtures.
Europa Conference League (1): This will go to seventh in the league, between Real Sociedad, Real Betis and Valencia, while Villarreal (45, 34) and Getafe (43, 34) are outside bets.
Relegation (3): Almería (17, 34), with two victories all season, were relegated last weekend. Granada (21, 34) are all but down and it will be confirmed if Mallorca win at home to Las Palmas on Saturday lunchtime, or if Granada fail to beat Real Madrid later that day.
That effectively leaves one relegation spot to be decided, with Cádiz (26, 34) needing to catch Mallorca (32, 34).
Bundesliga
Title: Bayer Leverkusen (84, 32) have already secured the first championship in their history.

Champions League (5): The Bundesliga has sealed an extra place through the European Performance Spot, which sends the team in fifth to the UCL too.
And we already know who will fill the top five positions. Joining Leverkusen will be Bayern Munich (69, 32), VfB Stuttgart (67,32), RB Leipzig (63, 32) and Borussia Dortmund (60, 32).
However, if Dortmund win the UCL and finish fifth, then sixth in the Bundesliga will also be in the UCL — one to keep an eye on if Dortmund get past PSG in the semifinals (Dortmund won the first leg 1-0.)
Europa League (2): There are a few complicating factors to the UEL places, which right now go to sixth in the league and the winners of the DFB Pokal.
The final of the DFB Pokal on May 25 (stream live on ESPN+, U.S. only) sees Leverkusen take on Kaiserslautern who, incredibly, could win the cup and be relegated to the third division, as they sit one point above the 2. Bundesliga relegation zone. If Kaiserslautern pull off an almighty shock and do what no other team has done all season (beat Leverkusen), the league slots will be unaltered. If Leverkusen win the final, sixth and seventh will get a place in the UEL.
But right now only sixth place is certain of a UEL place. That’s held by Eintracht Frankfurt (45, 32), who are chased by SC Freiburg (41, 32), TSG Hoffenheim (40, 32), and in ninth FC Augsburg (39, 32).
If Dortmund win the UCL and finish fifth, Germany will surrender that place in the UEL.
Europa Conference League (1): At present, Freiburg hold the UECL place in seventh, but depending on the cup winners it could be eighth that takes it.
This is also a battle between Eintracht Frankfurt, SC Freiburg, FC Augsburg and Hoffenheim. Yet results at the weekend have brought other teams into the mix. Heidenheim (38, 32), Werder Bremen (38, 32) and VfL Wolfsburg (37, 32) in 12th could yet make a late run for eighth, if the UECL places drop down to there.
Relegation (2+1): Two teams are relegated, and third-bottom takes on third place in the 2. Bundesliga in a playoff for the right to play in the top flight.
The relegation of SV Darmstadt 98 (17, 32) was confirmed last weekend.
FC Cologne (24, 32) are second-bottom and must now win their final two games to have any chance of getting out of it, though realistically the very best they can hope for is the relegation playoff — and even that’s a stretch with a five-point gap and two games remaining. Cologne host Union Berlin on Saturday.
That seems to leave four clubs trying to avoid the playoff place: Mainz (29, 32) are in it right now, then it’s Union Berlin (30, 32), VfL Bochum (33, 32) and Borussia Monchengladbach (33, 32).
Serie A
Title: Internazionale (89, 35) wrapped up the Scudetto last month as runaway champions.
Champions League (5): Like Germany, Italy has secured an extra place in next year’s competition through its clubs’ performance in Europe this season, meaning at least five clubs will qualify.
Inter will be joined by AC Milan (71, 35), while Juventus (66, 35) and Bologna (64, 35), third and fourth respectively, are well placed with a big gap to sixth.
Atalanta (60, 34) are in fifth and have a game in hand so look to be the strongest best. AS Roma (60, 35) cannot be ruled out, followed by and Lazio (56, 35). It’s likely these three clubs are battling out for the extra UCL slot though Lazio are rank outsiders.
In a quirk of the new regulations for next season, if either Roma or Atalanta win the UEL this season and finish outside the top four then Italy will have six clubs in the UCL — the top four, the UEL title-holders and the European Performance Spot. So, finishing in sixth might yet be enough for UCL football.
Europa League (2): Atalanta face Juventus in the final of the Coppa Italia, which means it’s almost certain that sixth and seventh will qualify for the UEL.
Roma, Atalanta and Lazio are the main contenders, but there’s still hope for Napoli (51, 35) and especially Fiorentina (50, 34) with their game in hand.
If either AS Roma or Atalanta win the UEL to qualify for the UCL and finish sixth or seventh, Italy will surrender that place in the UEL.
Europa Conference League (1): Eighth place will almost certainly enter the UECL, which is currently held by Napoli but could be filled by Atalanta, Lazio, Napoli or Torino (47, 35)
If either Roma or Atalanta win the UEL to qualify for the UCL and finish eighth, Italy will surrender its place in the UECL.
Relegation (3): Salernitana (15, 35) are relegated.
Sassuolo (29, 35) picked up a shock win over Inter on Saturday to drag themselves back into contention. Udinese (30, 35) are third bottom, with Empoli (32, 35), Frosinone (32, 35), Cagliari (33, 35) and Hellas Verona (34, 35) just above the drop zone.
Ligue 1
Title: Paris Saint-Germain (70, 31) secured the title last weekend when AS Monaco lost at Lyon.
Champions League (3+1): France gets three automatic places, with fourth place entering the UCL in the third qualifying round. PSG have already booked one place.
There’s a fierce battle for the two other guaranteed places but Monaco (61, 32) have almost claimed one of them. Brest (57, 32) and Lille (55, 32) appear to be battling it out for third. Nice (51, 31) have a game in hand and could yet challenge for fourth.
If Marseille, who are in seventh, win the UEL then France will have five teams in the UCL.
Europa League (2): Nice are well placed to take one if they don’t make the top four.
In sixth (as it stands a UECL place) and hoping to catch Nice are Lens (49, 32) though they have played a game more.
PSG take on Lyon in the final of the Coupe de France on May 25, and a victory for Les Parisiens will send sixth place into the UEL too.
Europa Conference League (1): Much will depend on who wins the Coupe de France. If it’s Lyon, who are in seventh (47, 32), then sixth may still be the UECL place.
However, if PSG win the cup, or Lyon do so and finish sixth, then seventh gets the UECL place. Lens, Lyon, Stade Rennais in eighth (45, 32) and Marseille in ninth (44, 31) could all finish in seventh and be waiting on the cup final.
If Marseille win the UEL and finish in a European position, France will surrender the place for the league position.
Relegation (2+1): Two teams are relegated, with third-bottom facing a playoff with a team from the second division to remain in Ligue 1.
Clermont Foot (25, 32) are bottom and a 4-1 defeat to Monaco on Saturday leaves them with the relegation playoff at best. They are still just alive, however, after Metz lost to Stade Rennais.
The second automatic relegation place is between Lorient (26, 32) and Metz (29, 32).
Le Havre AC (32, 32) and Nantes (33, 32) could still be overtaken by Metz and dumped into the relegation playoff.
