Arsenal won surprisingly against Bayern, which gives them some hope in the group. Olympiakos importantly won against Zagreb, which makes Olympiakos and Arsenal the likely competitors about the second spot in this group. They will meet in Match Day 5 in Athens and if Olympiakos manage to at least draw there, they are likely to qualify for round of 16.

This week's roller coaster happened in Germany where Leverkusen played Roma. First Roma flipped 0-2 to a 4-2 lead, before Leverkusen scored two goals to equalize in the last five minutes. In the next round they will play again, but this time in Rome. As Barcelona most likely will qualify and BATE not, the match in Rome will be key deciding who'll be the runner up.

Germany need a point against Georgia to clinch qualification. If that happens, Ireland and Poland play about the second spot. Ireland need to win or draw with 2-2 (or more). If Germany lose and Ireland and Poland draw, all three countries end on 19p. An table with only this teams looks like

that is Ireland and Poland clinch qualification.

Northern Ireland have qualified. Romania and Hungary fight about the second spot. Romania play Faroe Island at home, and Hungary play Greece away. Romania need to take at least as many points as Hungary in last round. If Hungary draws and Romania lose, so both countries end with 17p, Hungary qualifies on more away goals in internal games. Romania and Hungary drew 1-1 in Romania and 0-0 in Hungary. If Hungary ends third, which is very likely, they are the favourites (55%) to be the best 3rd and thereby avoiding playoff

Serbia clinch second spot if they win against Portugal. If they draw they clinch the playoff spot as they have better results against Albania. If they lose and Albania win, Albania grab the playoff ticket.

The question mark in this group was whether Shakhtar would be able to challenge Paris. With Paris winning against Shakhtar away (well they play in Lviv) the answer seems to be no and this group looks almost closed already. Quite likely Real Madrid and Paris will qualify (>90%).

The most open group upfront with three equally good teams with 60% chance and a challenger in Gladbach. Juventus has won against both their greatest competitors, which means they must be favourites to win the group now. Very important matches between Sevilla and Man City in Match Day 3 and 4.

The champions, Barcelona, started with a draw away in Rome and managed to turn around their match against Leverkusen. Leverkusen have done what you can expect with three points against BATE and a loss away in Barcelona. Roma lost against BATE and need good results against Leverkusen in next two matches.

One of the given groups beforehand with an outstanding favourite in Bayern. Bayern have virtually already qualified (>99%). Arsenal has had the most negative start of all team with two losses against Zagreb and Olympiacos and decreased their chance from 73% to 23%. Currently Olympiacos looks like the favourite to grab the second spot in this group.
