This summer i fell in love with Lech Poznan and Besiktas and i am glad they are still alive in their respective title races.

I’d have to say Germany only for the history of that table. Pretty much every week for the last couple of months there’s been a new champion most every time whereas the other legs have been more steady in general about who’s on top and who’s chasing. Plus all the parity means there are few if any “freebies” on the lineup that can be considered runouts for the people on top.

I’m with Ian–I think the Ligue 1 race is facinating due to the fact that Lyon’s stranglehold may come to an end. The Bundesliga race is great, too, if only to see if Bayern can keep it together over the next 7 weeks and keep a CL spot.

Its very hard to pick between Premiership,Ligue 1 and Bundesliga.
Premiership has three teams up for the title and two of them are also keen on adding the Champions league to their trophy cabinet.
Ligue 1 has 6 teams with a gap of 5 points and Bundesliga has 5 teams with a gap of 6 points between them. Its just to hard to pick between them.Since the number of teams vying for the top slot are most in the Ligue 1,I would go with that.

Sadly for me, Scotland looks to certainly be “squeeky bum time” since both Celtic and Rangers will be taking on exclusively the top 6 teams (including each other) one more time in the remaining six games (SPL Split, FTW!). The SPL also has exciting races for their other European spots and, as Ian mentioned, for the relegation zone as well.

It’s a close call between France and Germany. It would be interesting to know how many of the top teams in each league still have to play each other.

AFAIR Stuttgart still play against Wolfsburg and Bayern (last matchday) while Hamburg will play against Hertha but that’s it.

Of the big ones, Germany’s the one I’d like most to watch, though France looks like a tight one too. I’d like to see how some of the relegation races match up, because Scotland’s race at the bottom is very good this year.

Also in France you have the added spice that Lyon’s dominance might end.

France, I’d say. Very close with a host of teams still realistically in the running, and a fair bit of talent, which puts it ahead of some of the closer leagues.

Due to Man United’s recent wobble, England has the most interesting of the big three, I think.
