Spanish media are reporting UEFA will announce tomorrow that we go with current standings if the leagues can't be continued.
I don't think you can, take the Premier League for instance. Aston Villa have 1 game in hand and should they win that they would no longer be in the bottom 3
In League 1 Wycombe have a game in hand that should they draw would see them make the Play Offs
The only sensible options are
1) Complete the season, this would depend on when they can get back playing
or
2) Abandon the season, null and void and everyone starts afresh next August(if we are back playing by then)
Yes Clubs like WBA and Leeds would feel hard done by, this is something nobody has ever seen before. Lives are at risk and the most important thing is the health and well being of everybody...not the money that will be lost by failure to play a season out.
