Barcelona is on the brink of being sent to the Europa League as they visit Bayern Munich in this final Champions League group match of the season.

The Catalans have had a poor start to this campaign and are still paying the price. They probably waited too late to replace Ronald Koeman.

Xavi is now being tasked with helping the team become competitive again, but things aren’t getting easier for him.

Bayern is one of the favourites to lift the trophy in this campaign, so the Germans will be a proper test to Barca and they can be rampant sometimes.

Benfica hosts Dynamo Kyiv and a win for the Portuguese club means Barca also has to get all three points in Germany.

It is almost an impossible task with Robert Lewandowski is a fine form at the Allianz Arena.

The Pole has already scored 9 times in the competition this season and we can back him to earn some more strikes in this game.

Real Madrid and Inter Milan face each other in this crunch Champions League game with both clubs looking to top their group.

The Spaniards have 12 points while the Italians have 10 points. Both clubs have already secured qualifications for the next round of the competition.

Madrid is aiming to win it again with Carlo Ancelotti at the helm, while Inter has already surpassed their performance in the competition in the last few seasons.

Madrid would miss the goals of Karim Benzema who is out injured, but Vinicius Junior has been in fine form and he would be a handful for Inter Milan in this game.

Both of these clubs are in solid form ahead of this fixture with five wins from their last five matches.

Inter hasn’t conceded a goal in four straight matches, while Madrid has kept a clean sheet in 3 of their last 5 matches.

Their form means both of these clubs could restrict each other in the game, but it promises to be an interesting one.

Milan has been terrible in the Champions League this season, but they can still qualify for the next round of the competition.

This is because only Liverpool has been in fine form in their group this season and it is all to play for in this last matchday of the group.

FC Porto is currently 2nd in that group with 5 points, but Milan and Atletico Madrid both have 4 points each.

A win for the Italians and a draw in the other group game would see the Rossoneri make the next round of the competition.

This should serve as enough motivation for them to win this game.

Although Liverpool has already qualified for the next round of the Champions League, the Reds will want to end the group stages by winning all their matches.

They beat Milan 3-2 in the reverse fixture and would look to do the double over them with another win in this fixture.

Liverpool has won their last three matches against Milan in all competitions.

Chelsea will look for vengeance when they face Juventus in the Champions League today.

The Blues and the Italian giants will both qualify from this group, but this match gives the Blues a chance to compete for the top spot.

The Old Ladies won the reverse of this fixture in a very one-sided game and that Chelsea had the most possession.

Max Allegri’s men enters this match after a 2-0 win over Lazio in Rome and they know it would be another tough day for them.

But the very pragmatic tactician would be prepared to avoid defeat to the European champions again in this game.

Chelsea has also been in solid form in the league and have won every other Champions League game.

This match would be a major test of their credentials and they need to send a message to their rivals that they are serious about retaining their crown.

Romelu Lukaku is back from injury and could play a part in this game, but Juventus is likely to still rest Paulo Dybala who is touch-and-go in terms of his fitness level now.
