The top two each wrapped a league title last weekend, Next stop Cardiff, via Shaka Hislop's latest Power Rankings!

1. Juventus (no change)

A 3-0 win against Crotone confirmed what, in truth, most of us have expected all season: Juventus are champions of Italy for the sixth straight game. With two parts of a treble complete, only Real Madrid stand between Max Allegri's men and footballing immortality.

2. Real Madrid (no change)

With Barcelona poised to take advantage of any slip, Madrid knew they had to start well at Malaga. Cometh the hour, cometh Cristiano Ronaldo, whose second-minute goal set up what would be a comfortable victory that clinched the club's 33rd Spanish league title.

3. Chelsea (no change)

Having wrapped up the Premier League with two games to spare, Chelsea played with freedom in the last week of the season, scoring a total of nine goals in home wins vs. Watford and Sunderland. Saturday's FA Cup final vs. Arsenal offers the chance of a double.

4. Bayern Munich (+1)

Last weekend featured several goodbyes and Bayern lost two modern-day greats, as Philipp Lahm and Xabi Alonso played their final games before retirement. Both will be difficult to replace in what could be an off-season of much change for the German champions.

5. Monaco (+1)

After four straight Ligue 1 titles, Paris Saint-Germain were expected to coast to another championship, but they didn't reckon upon Monaco's remarkable rise. Leonardo Jardim's young side, who finished the season with a win at Rennes, were simply superb.

6. Barcelona (-2)

Luis Enrique's final Liga game in charge did not end with a title triumph and, as away side Eibar took a 2-0 lead, it looked as though it would end in defeat. But then Lionel Messi took over to inspire a comeback win and set up Barca for the Copa del Rey final vs. Alaves.

7. Roma (no change)

Serie A still has one round of games remaining, which means Roma can't yet relax. But a fourth straight win -- this time at home against Genoa in Francesco Totti's farewell -- will seal second place and guarantee a place in the group stage of the Champions League.

8. Atletico Madrid (no change)

Ten wins in their final 13 league games saw Atletico claim third place at the end of a season that, perhaps, saw them slightly underperform, especially when compared to recent campaigns. Koke has signed a new deal, but will Antoine Griezmann be there next season?

9. Manchester United (new)

It hasn't been pretty but Jose Mourinho achieved his main objective: Champions League qualification. Sixth in the league was disappointing but surely, at the start of the season, United fans would have taken two major trophies and a return to club football's biggest competition.

10. Feyenoord (no change)

The Dutch champions are no doubt enjoying their holidays, while still basking in the glory of their first Eredivisie title since 1999. You wonder whether their success will attract bigger clubs toward their best players and there is also a Dirk Kuyt-sized hole that they must fill.

Dropping out: Benfica.
