Group F: Bayern München (9) v Olympiacos (9), Arsenal (3) v Dinamo Zagreb (3)

• A point would be enough for both Bayern and Olympiacos to reach the last 16.
  
  
• Bayern clinch first place with a win, as would Olympiacos if they win by a margin that would give them the head to head advantage over Bayern.
  
  
• Arsenal need to win and hope Olympiacos lose to have a chance of overtaking them for second when they visit on matchday six, having lost the home game 3-2. Arsenal cannot overtake Bayern.
  
  
• Dinamo need to win and hope Bayern lose to have a chance of overtaking them for second place when they meet in Zagreb on matchday six, having lost 5-0 in Munich. Dinamo cannot overtake Olympiacos.
  
  
• Dinamo will clinch at least third place with victory.
  
  
• Arsenal will clinch at least third place with a victory provided they win by a margin that gives them the head to head advantage over Dinamo, who beat the English side 2-1 on matchday one.

Group G: Porto (10) v Dynamo Kyiv (5), Maccabi Tel-Aviv (0) v Chelsea (7)

• Porto will qualify with a draw. They will clinch first place if they win and Chelsea do not or if Porto draw and the Blues lose.

• If Astana lose or draw and Galatatasary win, Astana are confirmed in fourth place.

Group D: Juventus (8) v Manchester City (9, qualified), Borussia Mönchengladbach (2) v Sevilla (3)

• City are through and will clinch first place with victory.
  
  
• Juventus qualify with a win, or with any result if Sevilla do not win.
  
  
• A win is the only way Sevilla will have any hope of still going through to the round of 16 when they host Juventus on 8 December, and it would guarantee them a place in the UEFA Europa League – the competition they have won for the last two years.
  
  
• Mönchengladbach, already out of the UEFA Champions League, will be confirmed in fourth place with defeat.
