Chelsea have won three and drawn one of their Champions League group-stage fixtures this season<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

English sides Chelsea and Arsenal are both on course to reach the Women’s Champions League quarter-finals as group winners. Who could they face in the knockouts?<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

With two rounds of group fixtures to go former winners Barcelona and Lyon also look set to book their spots in the next round.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Wolfsburg are already into the quarter-finals but will they be joined by Group A’s Paris St-Germain or Real Madrid?<\/span><\/p>\n

Will Bayern Munich edge out Benfica in Group D to reach the last eight? Here’s every you need to know about who needs what from the final group matches.<\/span><\/p>\n

Group A<\/h3>\n

\"Group<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Group A looked tricky for Women’s Super League winners Chelsea on paper, but Emma Hayes’ side top the standings and are unbeaten after four matches.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Blues face already-eliminated Albanian side Vllaznia on Friday needing a point to qualify before hosting two-time finalists PSG in their final group game on 22 December.<\/span><\/p>\n

If Real Madrid fail to beat PSG on Friday, Chelsea will reach the last eight even if they are beaten by Vllaznia.<\/span><\/p>\n

Should Chelsea win or draw and PSG fail to beat Las Blancas, the English side will advance as group winners.<\/span><\/p>\n

Group B<\/h3>\n

\"Group<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Wolfsburg were the first side to reach the quarter-finals, with their main rivals Roma and St Polten still to play each other in the penultimate round of matches.<\/span><\/p>\n

That game is likely to decide who will join the German team in the knockouts. Wolfsburg will top Group B if they better Roma’s result when they face Slavia Prague on 16 December.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Czech side are already eliminated.<\/span><\/p>\n

Group C<\/h3>\n

\"Group<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Arsenal, winners in 2007, <\/span>stunned holders and eight-time winners Lyon 5-1<\/span><\/a> in their opening Group C match and have remained unbeaten in the competition since.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Gunners face Lyon at home on Thursday needing just a point to guarantee their spot in the last eight.<\/span><\/p>\n

Lyon and Juventus are set for a winner-takes-all crunch match in the final round of Group C fixtures on 21 December, though Juventus will be out if Lyon beat Arsenal and the Italian giants lose to winless Zurich on Thursday.<\/span><\/p>\n

Should Arsenal lose to Lyon, they would still progress with a win over Zurich on 21 December.<\/span><\/p>\n

Group D<\/h3>\n

\"Group<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Benfica are all still in the hunt to qualify from Group D.<\/span><\/p>\n

Barcelona’s 9-0 win over Benfica on matchday one means they will be through on head-to-head record if they avoid defeat against the Portuguese side when the pair meet on Thursday.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bayern Munich could join the 2021 winners if they better Benfica’s result when they face Rosengard the same day.<\/span><\/p>\n

If Bayern fail to better Benfica’s result on Thursday, they would still advance provided they lost by fewer than two goals when they face the Portuguese champions in their final Group D match on 21 December.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
