Most Champions League groups have already settled their qualified teams for the round of 16. However, the group of death has three teams fighting for a single place.
Borussia Dortmund wants to secure its first place and, at the same time, will be the judge of Paris Saint-Germain, which, if it does not win in Germany, will have to wait for the result between Newcastle and AC Milan.
Real Madrid secured first place but will have to visit Union Berlin, who need to win to dream of at least advancing to the Europa League.
And in the most attractive match of the last round, Bayern Munich, already in the round of 16, will go to England to face Manchester United, who must win at Old Trafford and hope for a draw between Copenhagen and Galatasaray.

Manchester United has been a disappointment in Europe this season. They only won one match, drew another, and lost three, and they are facing a rival with whom they lost 4-3 in a great game. The ‘Red Devils’ have been the worst defense in the zone, allowing 14 goals, although they have also scored the most (12). Ten Hag’s team must win and hope for a draw between Copenhagen and Galatasaray. This weekend, they were beaten 0-3 at home by Bournemouth.
Bayern Munich has been a steamroller, taking 13 out of a possible 15 points. The Germans are coming from a 0-0 draw at home against Copenhagen last time out but will surely give them all to make them forget the last defeat in the Bundesliga, which was 5-1 against Frankfurt. They have now gone two consecutive games without a win, something unusual for the German giants that has not happened since April this year when they had four matches in a row.

Union Berlin’s dream of being in the Champions League for the first time could come to an unhappy end, as they are in last place with two points and could miss out on a place in the Europa League. So far, the Germans have had a lot of trouble scoring, having only managed to score on four occasions. However, in Spain, they made it difficult for Carlo Ancelotti’s side, who only won 1-0 in the last minute. This Saturday, they beat Borussia Monchengladbach 3-1 in the Bundesliga and ended a 16-game winless streak, in which they lost 13 and drew three. In the whole season, they had only managed to win three games, and they were in their first three games: one in the DFB Pokal and two in the Bundesliga.
The ‘Casa Blanca’ has already qualified for the round of 16. They have 15 points out of a possible 15, have scored 13 goals and allowed five. It can be said that, by numbers, there has been no better performance than that of Real Madrid. With four goals, Jude Bellingham has been the best scorer of the Spaniards. Precisely, the English midfielder, who is having a dream season, scored his team’s only goal this weekend in the 1-1 draw against Betis.
Union Berlin vs. Real Madrid Betting Pick: Real Madrid

In such a difficult group, not many were betting on Borussia Dortmund, but the German team is the only one to qualify for the round of 16 with one game to go. They have taken the last nine points and have only conceded one goal in their last four Champions League games. Their only defeat in the group stage was precisely against PSG in the first game (2-0).
The French team is second with seven points, two more than Newcastle and AC Milan. If they win, they will reach the round of 16 without any problems; if they draw, it will depend on the goal difference, which at the moment is +1 for Luis Enrique’s team, 0 for the ‘Magpies’ and -4 for the Italians. Paris’ hope will be at the feet of Kylian Mbappé, who has three goals so far.
Borussia Dortmund vs. PSG Betting Pick: PSG
Champions League Matchday 6: Newcastle vs. Milán
When:
Wednesday, December 13 at 3:00 p.m. ET in St. James Park
Moneyline odds:
Newcastle -130
Milán +370

Newcastle has no tomorrow in the Champions League. They need to win and hope that PSG does not beat Borussia in Germany to reach the round of 16 of the European tournament. The ‘Magpies’ have only five points and have not won in three games, having only one unit in that period of matches.
Milan’s case is worse, as they have the same five points as their opponents, but their goal difference of -4 is lapidary. Their defense has allowed seven goals, but the big problem has been their offense, which has scored only three goals with Rafael Leão, Samuel Chukwueze, and Olivier Giroud, one each. This weekend, they lost 3-2 to Atalanta in Serie A, moving nine points behind leaders Inter.
Newcastle vs. Milán Betting Pick: Newcastle
