Hello again! We organize clubs of Europe's top 5 leagues into an order that reflects the up-to-the-minute hierarchy every Tuesday.
The rankings are a season-long measurement of clubs, tracking teams throughout 2017-18 and taking into account results from all competitions. Our rankings consider advanced stats, full-season play and recent performance with some gut feeling mixed in.
Sides that have lost the fewest games naturally rank higher—though the strength of opposition met in a loss is considered—and both UEFA Champions/Europa League form and presence are used as tiebreakers for those with similar records. Teams that gather big wins against strong opponents get a boost.
10. PSG
Dani Alves' first Ligue 1 goal secured the points for PSG as they came from behind to beat Nice 2-1 at the Allianz Riviera. And on Wednesday, PSG had Kylian Mbappe to thank for their 2-1 win over Angers in Ligue 1 after Thiago Motta was sent off.
9. Tottenham Hotspur
Christian Eriksen took charge in the absence of Harry Kane as he scored twice in a straightforward 3-0 win at Swansea City, booking Tottenham's place in the FA Cup semi-finals.
8. Liverpool
Mohamed Salah returned to his inspirational best as he scored four goals and set up another in Liverpool's crushing 5-0 Premier League win over Watford, bouncing back from defeat to Manchester United in style.
7. Atletico Madrid
Enes Unal came off the bench to score two late goals for Villarreal, denying Atletico Madrid victory and dealing Diego Simeone's men a huge blow in LaLiga's title race. They are now 11 points behind Barcelona in La Liga.
6. Manchester United
Romelu Lukaku scored his 25th goal of the season as Manchester United beat Brighton and Hove Albion 2-0 in a tight game at Old Trafford to reach the FA Cup semi-finals. They will take on Tottenham before heading to the final.
5. Real Madrid
Cristiano Ronaldo's remarkable run of form continued with the 50th hat-trick of his career as his four-goal haul inspired Real Madrid to a thrilling 6-3 win over Girona in LaLiga on Sunday.
4. Juventus
Juventus failed to win for the first time in 13 Serie A matches as lowly SPAL earned a 0-0 draw at Stadio Paolo Mazza on Saturday. Their lead at the top was narrowed to 2 points. In the midweek, Old ladies brushed past Atalanta courtesy of goals from Gonzalo Higuain and Blaise Matuidi.
3. Bayern Munich
Jupp Heynckes' side slumped to just their third league defeat of the season. RB Leipzig secured their first ever Bundesliga win over Bayern Munich thanks to goals from Naby Keita and Timo Werner.
2. Manchester City
The EPL match between Man City & Brighton has been postponed to play at a later date because the latter had to play against Man United in FA Cup.
1. Barcelona
Lionel Messi scored his 100th Champions League goal as Barcelona knocked Chelsea out of the competition with a 3-0 victory (4-1 agg) at the Nou Camp. On Monday, Barcelona stayed on course for a 25th La Liga title thanks to a 2-0 victory over Athletic Bilbao at the Nou Camp.
