Manchester United are the best team in the world, according to the International Federation of Football History & Statistics, while Juventus are incredibly only down in 95th.
The International Federation of Football History and Statistics (IFFHS) regularly updates a club world ranking throughout the season, using a complex study of statistics.
These include the results of 12 months of continental and intercontinental competitions, domestic league matches, as well as other calculations.
Manchester United remain the number one ranked team in the world following their recent Champions League victory in May.
Somewhat surprisingly Scottish runners-up Rangers, who last week crashed out of the Champions League preliminaries at the hands of Lithuanian minnows Kaunas, are in second place, with Chelsea in third and Bayern Munich and Barcelona completing the top five.
Other 'big' hitters in the top 50 include Sao Paulo (11), Getafe (17), Arsenal de Sarandà (18), Audax Italiano (37) and Atlético Nacional MedellÃn (43)
One huge European name that is nowhere to be seen is Italian superpower Juventus, who only just sneak into the top 100, way down in 95th place.
