Atletico Madrid, Juventus, Benfica and Paris Saint German all scaled through to the knockout stage of the 2016 UEFA champions league, with all the teams still having one more match to play.
They are to join Barcelona, Real Madrid, Bayern, Manchester City and Zenit who had already qualified, bringing the total number of teams that have qualified to the round of 16 be nine. Hence, playing on the last day of group matches will be for formality.

Interestingly, Group B and G will have to wait till the last day of the match, when the two teams that will emerge from each of the groups will be determined.

Will Chelsea qualify from their group? That will be tough. But I am predicting that Arsenal will qualify based on antecedents.
