This ranking gives the normal 3 points for wins instead of the 2 points in the official UEFA Ranking. And in my book getting the same number of points with less teams is better.

massive
Arguably the toughest matchday we had to date but we’re still going strong. Unreal how all 4 clubs marching onto the knockouts is a very real possibility, absolutely insane year for us!
Its great to see big clubs from other leagues in Europe compete.
Spain doing pretty good this season so far, and take into consideration that they have even played a match less with Maccabi Haifa-Villarreal being cancelled and they don’t have a team in Conference League. Should be further clear of third in reality without Atleti and Real Sociedad conceding late goals against Lazio/Inter and Sevilla being robbed by the referee against PSV
Only one defeat in Champions League so far which was Sevilla’s against Arsenal that easily could have ended in a draw. Otherwise Real Sociedad, Real Madrid and Barca have been pretty much perfect and Atleti are unbeaten aswell. If at least 4 out of 5 go through to knockout stages I would be decent enough
Conference League has been a godsend for the Belgian coefficient
I mean, Belgium has nearly always been 8th best league in Europe, even before the Conference League, but yeah, it’s definitely easier to farm points now.
