At least 12 teams have confirmed their places in the Round of 16 of the Champions League, ahead of the final group fixtures this midweek.

This means only four spots in the knockout stages will be up for grabs.

Manchester City, Real Sociedad, RB Leipzig, Real Madrid, Inter Milan and Bayern Munich have already scaled through.

The other teams that have progressed include Barcelona, Lazio, Atletico Madrid, Borussia Dortmund, Arsenal and PSV.

Of the 12, only four teams are certain to progress as group winners: Arsenal, Bayern, Man City, Real Madrid.

In Group C, Napoli will join Real Madrid in the last 16 as long as they manage a draw at home to third-placed Braga on matchday six.

Both Real Sociedad and Inter Milan are level on 11 points at the top of Group D, with the final round of fixtures to decide first place.

Barcelona have made it through from Group H, leaving Porto and Shakhtar Donetsk – both locked together on nine points – to fight it out for the other place when they meet in a winner-takes-all clash at the Dragao on December 13.
