With just one game to go, the Europa League group stage is nearing a dramatic conclusion as several teams prepare to battle it out for a place in the knockout round next week.

Some head into it with the luxury of qualification already in the bag, including Premier League duo Arsenal and Manchester United. However, both teams are yet to secure top spot in their respective groups - and doing so could have a huge impact on their chances of winning the tournament.

That's because the eight runners-up will each take on an eliminated Champions League team in the knockout round play-offs, where they can seal progression to the last-16.
