The league phase of the UEFA Champions League will come to a conclusion on Thursday morning, and there is still much to be decided.
Game week eight will see all 36 teams in action, with 18 matches all being played at the same time, and the stakes are high.
Only Liverpool and Barcelona have sealed their position in the round of 16, meaning there are places in the top eight still up for grabs.
Meanwhile, the top 24, and the chance to contest the knockout phase play-offs, also has to be confirmed.
The tension is sure to be high and here is out take on the pick of Thursday’s matches.
For Manchester City the mission is clear, they simply have to beat Club Brugge to push their way into the top 24.
The pressure is on Pep Guardiola’s side as Brugge look sure to park the bus in an attempt to secure the point needed to guarantee their spot in the knockout phase.
City let a two-goal lead slip against PSG in game week seven, eventually losing 4-2, and conceding too many goals has been an issue for them.
Such is the importance of the game, City boss Guardiola has confirmed that John Stones will play despite suffering injury issues.
It should help plug a leaky defence, although Brugge have only managed to score six goals over seven games.
City have home advantage and are the hot fancies at 1.18 to get the job done. Brugge are 13.00 to take the win, while the draw is 8.00.
Paris Saint-Germain defeated Man City 4-2 in game week seven, but there is still work to be done, and it will be far from easy in Germany against Stuttgart.
Stuttgart themselves could do with the win to guarentee making the knockout phase, while a draw is likely to be enough for both sides to progress.
The Bundesliga outfit have won the last two games in the competition, scoring eight goals in the process, so confidence should be high.
Stuttgart are 3.25 to win, the draw is 2.55, while PSG are 2.80 to leave with all three points.
Inter Milan will guarantee their place in the top eight with a win or draw against Monaco at the San Siro.
But it will be far from easy against a Monaco side that sit in 10th place and need three points to have a chance of making the top eight.
But breaching an Inter defence that has conceded just one goal in the tournament so, will be a huge ask for Monaco.
Inter have become the 1-0 win specialists and are 1.61 to take the three points. Monaco are 5.50 to cause an upset, while the draw is 4.00.
