Champions League permutations: Man City have qualified for the knockout stages and Arsenal look set to join them, but the hopes of Man United and Newcastle hang in the balance - who needs what to reach the last 16?

It's crunch time in the Champions League as several sides battle it out to reach the last 16 stage.

After an action-packed night on Tuesday, we are all set to go again on Wednesday when teams will be able to ensure they remain in Europe's elite club competition into the New Year.

Last night, Atletico Madrid, Lazio, Borussia Dortmund and Barcelona picked up crucial wins to qualify.

They joined six other sides - Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, Real Sociedad, Inter Milan, Man City and RB Leipzig - in having a spot in the knockout stages, with just six places left.
