Coefficient: the fall from the Top 15 is coming, Turks, Ukrainians and Danes continue to score

It was already looking like another week with a zero entry in the Czech coefficient, but in the last minutes Slovácko turned the tables on Nice and got back into the relegation game. Still, it’s starting to look black, especially with Slavia close to the end in the Conference League.

Twelfth place, guaranteeing direct promotion to the Champions League group, still belongs to the Norwegians. They have one representative in both the European and the Conference League. They are currently on 28.75 points and divide their profit by four.

Thirteenth place belongs to the Czech Republic even now, but because of Plzen and Slavia’s zero points, they are catching up with the countries behind us. The Norwegians are already 0.7 points behind, which is a win and a draw. Slavia in particular are disappointing so far, with only four points in a paper-weak group.

But the countries behind us are also struggling and scoring points. The Swiss, holding 14th place, have Zurich (EL) and Basel (EKL) in their groups. Basel are so far on a roll in the easy Conference League group, first with seven points. The Swiss also share their points by four and are only 0.525 points behind the Czechs (one win).

The Turks have already jumped to 15th place. Thanks to the four representatives in the group, they are only 0.75 points behind (two wins). In addition, they have two certain qualifiers for the spring season, so they will 99 percent leapfrog the Czechs by the end of the season.

The Ukrainians will recover from the slump after last year’s failure, who are paying for Dynamo Kiev’s poor form. From 15th place they are 0.75 points behind the Czechs, which is two wins when divided by five. In any case, the top 15 guarantees the runner-up Champions League qualification.

The Danes, who have three clubs in the groups, are also doing decently and are 1.5 points behind the Czechs (four wins, divided by five). The eighteenth-placed Croatians and the nineteenth-placed Greeks are probably out. The Croats have only Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League, the Greeks only Olympiakos Piraeus in the Europa League. Both are separated by four and Olympiakos in particular has started the group in a threatening fashion. They are on zero points.
