Champions League: Will English champions be able to escape from Group E?

On Wednesday, the UEFA Champions League group stage matches will come to an end. It is still unclear which two teams will advance to the next stage. "Viasat Sport Baltic" and TV6 will show two very intriguing matches today. A huge buzz is surrounding the match between "Roma" and "Manchester City" in the Italian capital on Wednesday. In Group E, these teams, as well as Moscow's CSKA, have accumulated five points each and all have the opportunity to progress. The Muscovites will face "Bayern Munich" away, for whom this match is just a formality. The German champions have twelve points and have long secured a ticket to the next stage of the competition. The first match between "Manchester City" and "Roma" ended in a 1:1 draw. A victory would guarantee a place in the knockout stages for the "Roma" players. The Italian club might even settle for a draw if CSKA fails to beat the "Bayern" team. If the Muscovites lose, a draw may be sufficient for the Italian team. The "citizens" must win and hope that CSKA does not triumph in Munich. If the Russian club stumbles in Germany, then a draw, but not a goalless one, would be enough for the English champions. "Roma" is aiming to reach the second stage of the UEFA Champions League for the seventh time, while "Manchester City" is aiming for the second time. Another question remains in Group G. Lisbon's "Sporting" players would be content with a draw against "Chelsea" in London. Jose Mourinho's students have already secured the first place. "Schalke" from Gelsenkirchen would advance to the next stage if this club were to defeat "Maribor" away, and "Sporting" were to face failure. For the first place in Group F, the "Camp Nou" stadium will witness a battle between "Barcelona" and Paris Saint-Germain. It is clear that both teams will advance to the next stage. The French club has thirteen points, while the Catalans have twelve. In their first encounter, PSG was stronger in the showdown between these giants - 3:2.
