Group A, PSG have ensured themselves to qualify for the next round. Real Madrid have the biggest opportunity to accompany PSG. Interestingly, the two teams will meet on matchday at the Santiago Bernabeu. Los Blancos will qualify if they defeat PSG, or Club Brugge fails to win over Galatasaray.

Group B, Tottenham Hotspur are also likely to advance to the round of 16 if they win over Olympiakos. They will host the Greek team at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. This match will also be Jose Mourinho's debut with Tottenham in the Champions League.

Group C, Manchester City only need one more point to qualify for the knockout stages. Pep Guardiola's team will qualify if they win over Shakhtar Donetsk or if Dinamo loses to Atalanta.

Group D, Atletico Madrid are still trying to hunt for tickets to the round of 16. If they succeed in defeating Juventus who have already escaped, then they will get a ticket to the knockout phase.

Group E, Liverpool and Napoli are still competing with each other to win rations to the round of 16. Unfortunately, they will face each other in the middle of the week. Whoever wins this match will advance to the knockout phase first.

Group F, Inter Milan will face a deciding match. If the Nerazzurri lose to Slavia Prague then they do not qualify for the round of 16.

Meanwhile, Barcelona will qualify as long as they win over Dortmund or Slavia wins over Inter. While Dortmund will only qualify if they beat Barcelona.

Group G, RB Leipzig has a greater chance of qualifying for the knockout phase. If they win over Benfica, the Bundesliga club automatically qualifies.

While Lyon and Zenit will "kill" each other for the ticket to qualify for the next round.

Group H, Chelsea, Valencia and Ajax both have seven points after four matches. Chelsea, who have a head-to-head advantage over their two rivals, will qualify if they win over Valencia.
