GROUP A

Group A"s second spot is still up for grabs however Bayern Munich have already qualified as group winners. The battle for second place is between Napoli and Manchester City, with the Italians a point better off and they also have a favourable record in the head-to-head battles. 

City have to beat Bayern Munich at Eastlands and hope Napoli fail to win away to Villarreal, who have lost all five matches and scored just 2 goals in those five matches. Manchester City lost their last clash 2-0 but will hope that the home ground advantage gets them through here. Any other result will send Napoli through in second and condemn City to the Europa League final 32. I can"t see Napoli being beaten by Villareal as they are fighting for that second spot and will no doubt give it their all to qualify.

I think Napoli will go through and Manchester City will be condemned to the Europa League with Villareal crashing out of Europe altogether.

GROUP B

Inter Milan have already qualified for the first knockout round as group winners, but with Trabzonspor, Lille and CSKA Moscow separated by just a single point, it promises to be a dramatic final match day.

For Trabzonspor, the task is simple, if they win against Lille they will be through. A draw in Lille and they would be relying on CSKA not winning in the San Siro to keep second place. As CSKA go to Inter and are little chance of winning, Trabzonspor may feel a draw will be enough. A draw for Trabzonspor guarantees Europa…
