Matchday 5 continues on Wednesday, with teams from Group A, B, C and D all in action. There are two matches remaining in the Champions League group stage and places are still up for grabs for the clubs involved.

Group A

Liverpool only need a point from their last two Group A matches to progress to the last 16 of the Champions League. Ajax made it three Eredivisie wins on the bounce on the weekend, winning 4-1 against RKC Waalwijk. The league leaders need a win against Jurgen Klopp’s side and will head out of the Champions League if they fail to pick up all three points. Napoli have four wins from four, while Rangers could move to the Europa League if they can find points in their last two group games.

Group B

Atlético Madrid can’t afford to slip up again and take on Xabi Alonso’s Bayer Leverkusen in Madrid. The Spanish outfit are coming off the back of a win over Real Betis in La Liga, and desperately need three points in the Group B. Diego Simeone’s are third on four points and will be hoping group leaders Club Brugge can beat FC Porto in Brugge.

Group C

Bayern Munich are group leaders with 12 points from a possible 12, scoring 13 goals and conceding just two. Barcelona are third in the standings with four points from one win, one draw and two defeats. If Inter Milan beat Viktoria Plzen this evening, they will send the Blaugrana to the Europa League regardless of their result against Bayern at Camp Nou.

Group D

Only three points separate group leaders Tottenham (7 points) and Eintracht Frankfurt at the bottom of the group (4). Every side in the group is still in with a reasonable chance of advancing to the last 16.
