What to see

A familiar path for Milan
Two seasons ago, Atalanta lost their first three group stage games, tied for the fourth and then won two consecutive wins to secure the pass. This course, the Italian AC Milan has repeated those first five steps and could star in a great comeback until reaching the second place that is still at stake in Group B. But it is a difficult goal, since the ‘rossoneri’ have to win Liverpool, who have won their first five games of a group stage campaign for the first time, and expect a draw between second-placed Porto and Atlético Madrid in the other group match.

—Atlético – Milan 0-1–

Modrić, close to entering the 100 club
Luka Modrić will become the 43rd player to reach 100 matches in the UEFA Champions League if he plays in Real Madrid’s first-place match against Inter on Tuesday. The Croatian midfielder still has some way to go to catch up with his teammate Toni Kroos (119), but he will be desperate to line up with his friend in Madrid’s midfield, especially if the German once again has that scoring nose he already has. had on the fifth day. Interestingly, the Whites have won 23 of the 24 games in which Kroos has scored.

Xavi hopes not to repeat the elimination
You have to go back to the 2000/01 season to find the last time Barcelona failed to make it past the group stage, but the danger of elimination has never been greater than this time. Xavi Hernández, who at that time with 20 years, was part of that last Barça team that suffered that cruel fate, and the now new Culé coach is aware that it will take a victory in the Bayern field to pass groups if his rival more direct, Benfica, beat bottom Dynamo Kiev in the other match of Group E.

Group G, full of hopefuls
The last time all four teams in a UEFA Champions League group reached Matchday 6 with hopes of qualifying was in the 2009/10 edition, so the Group G setting is quite peculiar. However, the solution is simple for the four contenders: the top two finishers, LOSC Lille and Salzburg, only have to avoid defeat, while the pursuers, Sevilla and Wolfsburg, must win to advance to the eighth of final.

And later?

• The top eight finishers in each group will be matched with the eight runners-up when the draw for the UEFA Champions League round of 16 takes place at UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland on Monday 13 December. There will be streaming and live coverage at 12.00CET.
