The end of the Champions League group stages is nigh, meaning that the final few places in the knockout stages are to be filled.
On Tuesday Shakhtar Donetsk will hope to pick up a result against Manchester Unitedand hold off Bayer Leverkusen to progress from Group A, while in Group B, Galatasaray host Juventus knowing that a win -- and only a win -- will be enough for them to leapfrog the bianconeri into the knockout stages with Real Madrid. Benfica will be hoping to capitalise on a weakened Paris Saint-Germain to hold onto second in Group C, while Bayern Munich's match at home to Manchester City is only to decide the group winner -- both of those sides have already progressed.
On Wednesday the incredibly open Group E could see any two of Chelsea, Basel or Schalke progress, while in F, Arsenal, Borussia Dortmund and Napoli are all hoping for qualification. Atlético Madrid have run away with Group G though Zenit St. Petersburg and FC Porto are still scrapping over second, while in the final group, AC Milan and Ajax are looking to progress with Barcelona. Got all that?
