Aston Villa's stunning 4-2 victory over Liverpool on Friday night has sealed Champions League football for at least four Premier League clubs. The win pushes Villa into a top-four spot they're unlikely to relinquish.
Ollie Watkins netted twice in the commanding display. John McGinn added a spectacular goal late in the match as Unai Emery's side overwhelmed the defending champions.
Villa now sits on 62 points, two ahead of Liverpool with just one game remaining. They've secured their place alongside Arsenal, Manchester City and Manchester United in next season's Champions League league phase.
There's an intriguing twist ahead for the Midlands outfit. They face Freiburg in the Europa League final next Wednesday.
A win in that competition would've automatically qualified them for the Champions League anyway. Should Villa triumph, England's sixth-place finisher would claim the fourth European spot instead.
