Jamie Carragher DISAGREES with Opta supercomputer's top-five prediction - and names big club who will miss out on the Champions League

Jamie Carragher believes that Chelsea will miss out on Champions League football next season after the Blues were beaten 2-0 by fellow top-five chasers Newcastle United on Sunday afternoon.

The tight race to secure a spot in European football's premier competition took another turn at St James' Park, after goals from Sandro Tonali and Bruno Guimaraes saw Newcastle edge past the 10-man Blues and climb into third place.

The result leaves Enzo Maresca's men sitting in the final Champions League spot on 63 points, with just two games of their topsy-turvy season remaining.
