All Football Power Rankings of the Week (Apr 10, 2018): Real enter top 3 as Barca stay top

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. Arsenal

Alexandre Lacazette, making his first start since January, and Aaron Ramsey netted doubles as Arsenal strolled to a 4-1 win over CSKA Moscow in their Europa League quarter-final first leg at the Emirates. On Sunday, Danny Welbeck scored twice as Arsenal recovered from a series of setbacks to claim a 3-2 victory over Southampton.

9. Tottenham Hotspur

Christian Eriksen's double left Stoke deep in relegation trouble as Tottenham won 2-1 at the bet365 Stadium on Saturday afternoon. They are now 10 points clear of 5th-placed Chelsea.

8. Atletico Madrid

Antoine Griezmann cancelled out Cristiano Ronaldo’s opener to hand Atletico Madrid a 1-1 draw against city rivals Real Madrid and extend their unbeaten record at the Bernabeu to five games. But the gap between Atletico & league leaders Barcelona is expanded to 11 points.

7. Liverpool

Liverpool took a firm grip on their Champions League quarter-final as Manchester City were torn apart by a three-goal burst from Jurgen Klopp's side in the first 31 minutes at Anfield. On Saturday, a much-changed Liverpool side battled to a goalless draw away to Everton in an uninspiring 231st Merseyside derby. 

6. Manchester United

Paul Pogba spearheaded a sensational Manchester United comeback to deny Manchester City a chance to win the Premier League title in a 3-2 win on Saturday.

5. Juventus

Juventus got beaten 3-0 by Real Madrid in Champions League quarter-final first-leg. On weekends, Paulo Dybala scored a hat-trick containing two penalties as Juventus beat Benevento 4-2 to move seven points clear at the top of Serie A.

4. Manchester City

YES. It was a bad week for Manchester City. They started their battle for a place in the Champions League semi-final with a very bad 3-0 loss to Liverpool at Anfield. On Saturday, they lost at home to bitter rivals Manchester United by a final score of 3-2 after a tantalizing first half teased us into think the title was all but won.

3. Real Madrid

Cristiano Ronaldo scored a spectacular overhead kick as Real Madrid took firm control of their Champions League quarter-final against Juventus with a 3-0 first-leg win in Turin on Tuesday. 

2. Bayern Munich

Bayern Munich were confirmed as Bundesliga champions for the sixth consecutive season on Saturday after a 4-1 win over Augsburg.

1. Barcelona

Barcelona eased past Roma with a 4-1 win at the Camp Nou that will leave them confident of a spot in Champions League last four. On Sunday, Lionel Messi scored a brilliant hat-trick to sink Leganes and help Barcelona match the all-time La Liga unbeaten record of 38 games. They only need 10 points to secure the title.
