"Leaders Arsenal have won all seven of their matches and just a point at home to Kairat Almaty would be enough to clinch top spot ahead of Bayern Munich. In terms of seedings for the last 16, it makes no difference with the top two paired in the draw and facing either the winners of the play-off game between 15th and 18th or 16th and 17th."
""It's very important as you miss the play-offs, and it helps with the intense programme that we're having," Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk told Uefa. "It's all down to us again next week, at home. Let's make sure we're in the top eight. We've put ourselves in a good position, but that's for next week.""
Arsenal have won seven matches and require one point at home to Kairat Almaty to secure top spot, while Bayern Munich also advance to the last 16. Bayern need a point at PSV Eindhoven to guarantee a top-two finish and the advantage of second-leg home ties. Real Madrid and Liverpool, on 15 points, and Tottenham, on 14, can all clinch direct last-16 qualification with wins on matchday eight. A cluster of eight teams from Paris St-Germain to Atalanta sit on 13 points, with Newcastle, Chelsea and Manchester City among those needing victories and potentially relying on goal difference.
