After playing 120 minutes against Norwich last weekend in the FA Cup, some may have expected Man United to be sluggish at Brighton on Tuesday.

Which Premier League clubs will qualify for the 2020-21 Champions League? With the end of the 2019-20 Premier League season just a month away, ESPN have cast their eye on which clubs are likely to qualify for next season’s Champions League. Of course, Liverpool are already in it. The 2018-19 Champions League winners have booked their spot in the competition after winning this year’s Premier League title. Will Man City be in it too? Currently no, as the Sky Blues have been hit with a 2-year ban by UEFA. Man City are hoping to overturn that decision as they await the verdict from their appeal in the Court of Arbitration for Sport. Working on the assumption that Man City don’t win their appeal, 5th place in the league will qualify for the Champions League. Cutting to the chase, ESPN believe that Chelsea will finish 3rd, Wolves will finish 4th, while Man United will end up in 5th. So now that Liverpool have the title, what about the race for the Champions League? Bad news for Leic

Ings bagged the opener after 16 minutes, while the centre-forward doubled his tally in the 70th minute. A Jan Bednarek own goal gave Watford late hope, but that was snuffed out when James Ward-Prowse scored Southampton’s third with a trademark free-kick.   Leicester’s Jamie Vardy & Golden Boot Jamie Vardy has been sitting on 99 Premier League goals for some time now… Despite his ongoing wait to become a Premier League goalscoring centurion, Vardy remains the top scorer in the league this season with 19 goals.
