I'd love to sit here and confidently tip United to maintain their Champions League status next season, but I simply can't. Tottenham and Arsenal are showing more consistency - and looking better while doing so.
The number of uninspiring performances and ghastly results this term is enough to concede that Europa League football awaits.
However, my predicted results forecast a tight battle, separating fourth-placed Spurs and sixth by just five points.
The 23 April game at Arsenal bears significant stakes, but I think United have already slipped up one too many times regardless of the outcome.
