21:52 CET - Tottenham Hotspur are out of the relegation zone! They have picked up a massive three points at Villa Park with a 2-1 win over a woeful Aston Villa, who seemingly have put all of their eggs in the Europa League basket.

21:45 CET - So far, so good for Barcelona, who will be watching this game between Espanyol and Real Madrid intently, knowing any slip-up from Los Blancos hands them the title.

Can Real Madrid find a goal in the second half?

The Brazilian does well to head in an inswinging cross from Mathys Tel. It's his 10th goal of the season, more than any other Spurs player.
20:13 CET - How big could this be with Tottenham? Conor Gallagher has given his club a lifeline, opening the scoring against Aston Villa in the 12th minute of the game.

Check out the lineups for that clash below:
18:28 CET - Manchester United have qualified for the Champions League after a thrilling 3-2 win against arch-rivals Liverpool.
Mainoo's late goal was a winning one as the young Manc-born midfielder continues his impressive return to the starting lineup and spotlight under Michael Carrick.
It wasn't the prettiest of second-half displays as United still struggle to keep their level up for 90 minutes, but it is another win, and as long as they keep winning, Carrick has a great chance of staying at the club.
18:12 CET - In a game that has rarely made much sense, Manchester United have retaken the lead when it looked for all the world like Liverpool would find the winning goal.

17:55 CET - And just like that, Manchester United have contrived to let Liverpool back into this contest! The visitors are now level after another shocking error.

17:44 CET - Well, well, well... Out of nowhere, Liverpool are back in this contest! A sloppy pass from Amad, who came on for the injured Benjamin Sesko at half-time, fell straight to Dominik Szoboszlai, and the Liverpool man did the rest before finding the bottom corner with a cool finish.

Check out the lineups for that clash:
17:22 CET - After making an electric start and racing into a 2-0 lead, Manchester United are in dreamland against their arch-rivals at half-time. Matheus Cunha's deflected strike gave the hosts the lead before Benjamin Sesko bundled home a second after a blistering counter from the hosts.
Just like that, Manchester United are in cruise control and one half away from securing Champions League football next season.
Whilst it is all smiles on the pitch, there has been slightly concerning news about former legendary Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson, who was taken to the hospital ahead of kick-off. Thankfully, it doesn't appear to be anything serious.

With him missing out on the title on the final day last season with Ajax, this will mean a huge amount to the Italian, who has won the first trophy of his managerial career and established himself as one of the most exciting young coaches around.
23:02 CET - PSG have been let off the hook, with Nice scoring a late equaliser through Ali Abdi to claim a 1-1 draw that leaves Lens six points adrift of the reigning champions with three games to go and moves the hosts a point closer to safety.

21:46 CET - 45 minutes in, things aren't going to plan for Barca. They've dominated possession, but have struggled to create chances, only racking up 0.38 xG.

19:20 CET - Half-time around Europe in our 18:30 CET, so let's get you up to date.
