Some HUGE games mid-week that will decide who advances to knock out round, and whether Italy can surpass England as the third best league (giving them a 4th spot in UCL, and EPL only getting 3 - probably wouldn't take effect until 2017-18 tho).
UCL Tuesday
Group B
Man U @ Wolfsburg, and PSV Eindhoven v CSKA Moscow.
Eindhoven must win (and they are home favorites) to guarantee they advance. If that happens the loser of United @ Wolfsburg is out (or if United draws, they are out). Huge implication in EPL keeping a hold on that 4th UCL spot.
Group D
City v M'gladbach, and Sevilla v Juve.
City and Juve have qualified for next round, this is just for points for their respective leagues
UCL Wednesday
Group E
Bayer Leverkussen v Barca, and Roma v BATE Borisov.
Leverkussen and Roma even on points, Roma has the better head to head (so would win if tied on points). Hope that Barca rests their stars since they've locked up top spot and the Germans can get a result, and for Roma to draw or lose. Unlikely
Group F
Arsenal @ Olympiakos - Arsenal must win by 2 goals or if only by one goal then it needs to be at least 3-2 (to go to extra time) or more to win the tie-breaker.
Group G
Chelsea v Porto, and Dinamo Kyiv v Maccabi Tel Aviv. Dinamo will win big which means loser of Chelsea v Porto is out. If those two draw then there will be a 3 way tie at top of table and I believe (not certain) Porto would lose that tie-breaker
Europa Thursday
EPL sides: Liverpool @ Sion, and Tottenham v Monaco - both Spirs and Liverpool have already qualified for next round. The league needs the points tho. Sion and Monaco will both be playing for their Europa lives tho.
Series A sides: Napoli v Liga Warsawza, Lazio @ Saint-Etienne, and Fiorentina v Belenenses. - Napoli and Lazio are qualified already. Fiorentina needs a win or draw to advance.
If you're an EPL fan, you want them to go 6-0 (as hard as it is to cheer for rival clubs).
