A very tightly packed division in the middle with 1 pt separating 5th to 17th

Everton appear to be the favourites for the title with a clear lead over Anderlecht or have the best attack in the league and should get at least 2nd.

PSG are also in the big 3 with a sizeable gap above Flamengo who may be relying on their great keeper.

Then we get the pack Sunderland down to Hoffenheim. Sure Sunderland are half a point better than Fenerbache and have a strong attack but each team below them have strengths and weaknesses.  CSKA stand out as a top and tail team which often works at this level, they St Etienne, West Ham also have good depth.

Having said this you will need 221 to survive in the division above which realistically means Sunderland or above could have a good chance if promoted. Less than 219.3 is probably relegation territory. Fiorentina look to be shy of the rest and could well struggle with overachievers Dnipro just having strong enough attack to maybe survive.  Basel have a stronger offense with Roma favoring a more balanced approach.
