Actually for Bayern from the 5th match they are also safe so they are not too eager to get 3 points in the previous match because after all they need to save energy for matches that are not too important.
But now we only look at the 3 teams whose points are still possible to qualify.
Several scenarios can happen in this 6th match because after all, even though Manchester United is the most likely club not to qualify in terms of probability, they can still compete, it's just that the way is still very difficult.
On the other hand, this is an opportunity for Copenhagen and Galatasaray because whoever wins will qualify for the next phase.

A draw in the deciding match feels quite absurd and they will still fight for their place until the remaining matches. If Manchester United wins against Galatasaray then they will only be competing with Galatasaray for second place. But unfortunately Copenhagen was able to hold off Bayern Munich's series so Copenhagen also had the opportunity to do the same thing as Manchester United and Galatasaray. I am quite pessimistic about Manchester United's match against Bayern Munich and maybe the chance of the Red Devils winning is only no more than 10%. Now it is very difficult for the group A stage because there are still 3 teams left with all their magic in the last match and I think regardless of whoever loses in this competition they have to accept it and try again next season.

This will be a difficult match for Manchester United because they will face Bayern Munich, but there is no other choice for Erik Ten Hag but to mobilize his best squad to play optimally and win this important match.
Even though it is impossible, nothing is impossible if Erik Ten Hag can formulate the best strategy and can also place the right players, with the best tactics and also prayers to beat Bayern Munich.
And I'm not saying Manchester United don't perform well, they are just inconsistent with match results but sometimes surprising.

Porto had beaten shakhtar with 3-1 as the final result in the first leg. Im sure porto will be doing it again in the second leg. The chance for porto to win against shakhtar is far bigger. Porto is really strong. Porto has destroyed shakhtar when it was playing away and the next match is going to happen at porto's home. How can i pick shakhtar to win the game? porto is obviously the best choice in this match. Im sure that porto will be once again humiliate shakhtar. The club needs to prepare very strong mentality once it will be playing away against shakhtar.

Im predicting at least 3 -4 goals to be made in this match. Porto looks very superior compared with shakhtar donetsk. Shakhtar's chance is very small to win against porto. Porto has known the main weakness of shakhtar.
Porto will be humiliating shakhtar. Everyone will take porto for this match.

The last Champion League faceoff results left most teams to calculated qualifications for the round of 16. A whole lot of teams advancement doesn't necessarily depend on the outcome of their final group game, but rather on the outcome of other group team games too, United drew to Galatasaray so did Copenhagen to Munich.

 Now the advancement is certain alone for Munich but the other three would have to fight in their own final games and still pray that the counterpart teams get a result that'd give them a chance to qualify as well. I don't know how United will face Munich because they're not in form even if they'd be the hosts, Munich are doing exceedingly well and they've not failed to make clubs stay down. Ten Hag has to do the greatest needful and also pray really hard because their destiny isn't in their hands solely.

The two teams that have been confirmed to enter the European league so far are Feyenoord and Young Boys. Even though I had higher expectations for Feyenoord to get second place in Group F so they could qualify for the round of 16, they were unlucky in the last match because they had to play Atletico, who are at the top of the group at the moment. Actually I would have preferred to see Feyenoord qualify rather than Lazio, but that's all, it's over.

On the other hand, there is Young Boys and it seems that from the start they had no chance of qualifying from group G because there were Manchester City and Leipzig in that group which made them not at all favored to qualify. But overall this team is quite good and I hope to see both of them back in the champions league next season. For the other teams from each group, I hope they still provide remaining surprises in the final match on matchday 6.

Bayern Munich will definitely win the match even though they have already locked their position to qualify for the group stage. Bayern Munich will not give Manchester United the opportunity to win the match because it will be difficult for Erik Ten Hag's team to break through Bayern Munich's defense even though Manchester United could. give a surprise but the chances are very slim or maybe Manchester United can maximize the draw and be able to take part in the competition in the European league but with the hope that the match between Galatasaray and Copenhagen one of them will experience defeat with one of them not scoring a goal.
but again it is just a hope and could be a miracle for Manchester United.

A draw is enough for Lens for UEFA. Lens drew 1-1 with PSV at home and managed to beat Arsenal 2-1. It doesn't seem to be an easy bite for Sevilla. In other words, Sevilla seems like can't do the same as previous years and can't be successful in UEFA. Sevilla, which is in a very bad situation in the league, may not be in Europe next year after years. But it is useful to remember that the team we are talking about is Sevilla. Anyone watching the first half wouldn't have thought Sevilla would lose, but the red card changed everything. It's a great achievement for psv to win.

Wether Manchester United will be playing to their full strength in other to win again Bayern Munich as a revenge for losing at the home of the German club in September or trying to win in other to progress to the knockout stages of this season's UEFA Champions League competition, it doesn't change the fact that the possibility of reaching the round of 16 is mathematically not in their own hands as a win by any of the sides between Copenhagen and Galatasaray will send the Old Trafford club crashing out of this season's UCL competition.

Bayern Munich is undoubtedly the strongest team in the group A and the only team in the group that's yet to lose a match in the competition and I don't even expect them to lose against Manchester United and that's why I think it's almost impossible to see Manchester United progress to the next round as they'll be needing a win against Bayern Munich and a draw in the game between Copenhagen and Galatasaray to make it to the next round of the competition. United fans already aren't happy with the club's manager Erik Ten Hag because of his poor performance with the team this season both in Europe and in domestic competitions and I'll be surprised to see him remain at the club till the end of the season.

Usually, Bayern will still play with a full squad to get perfect points. however, under the guidance of Thomas Tuchel, the situation this time is a little different, we can refer to Bayern's match against Copenhagen. Tuchel prefers to reserve some of his players and give other players opportunities. Even though he actually played some of his core players in the second half, this scenario is important for the overall fitness of the first team. even though Bayern could have played a full squad of players and toppled Copenhagen on the fifth matchday of the group phase.
On matchday six, it is not impossible that Tuchel will play his second tier players. Except, Kane remains the main starter. or even, it could be that Tuchel really doesn't play his core players. These things can happen, in order to perform optimally in the Bundesliga when they host Stuttgart's match later. After all, Bayern Munich is in a safe position whether they lose or draw. After all, they are still the winners of Group A.

I tried to refer to the temporary odds provided by the bookie, and it was quite surprising that the two teams didn't have a big difference. United with @2.47, while Bayern @2.60. Even though this is temporary, it is not impossible that the scenario I mentioned could happen on matchday six. I think United still have a chance to win the match over Bayern, especially since they will perform all out at Old Trafford, the home of the Red Devils. If that is the scenario, then the Copenhagen versus Galatasaray match will be the deciding match for United. A draw takes United through to the next phase but with the scenario of United winning the match over Bayern. If one of these teams wins, it means United has a ticket to the Europa League playoffs. This is very interesting, I think it's still worth watching because the final result will be determined when the match is held.

Porto and Shakthar will appear all out in their last match, because the results of the match will determine whether they will qualify for the last 16 or not. For Porto maybe a draw is enough to bring them to the knockout round, but still if they play it safe then the risk is also very large, because it is certain that Shakthar will appear all out. As for Shakhtar, victory is the only way they can get 1 ticket to the last 16.
The problem for them is that they will play as a guest team, and when their first meeting also lost to Porto, of course this will be even more difficult.

Before the last matches in the group stage Group F is still in an interesting situation. Dortmund have guaranteed qualifying for next stage already. They are quite likely to advance as the leader as well.

However their last match is a home one against PSG. PSG have no chance other than winning against Dortmund in Germany in case Newcastle beat Milan home as well. Because Newcastle are ahead of PSG in head-to-heads now. Let's say PSG got a draw and Newcastle won against Milan. Then Newcastle and PSG would have equal points but Newcastle would leave PSG behind anyway.

To secure themselves PSG had better show their best performance in Signal Iduna Park.

Yes Football is full of surprises and it’s not over till it’s finally over, but for Manchester United you can easily predict because the team isn’t serious, the fighting spirit of the badge is not there in this set of players as you see them struugle and falter to a 2-0 lead, the worst part of it is that they ain't trying to improve but keep playing boring football every week, I don't think United would survive they're next match cause I believe they'll be thrashed by Bayern.

 But yes, they could pull some surprises at Old Trafford and go through to the 16 or Europa League but it’s going to be a tough one for the team and it’ll require quite a lot from the whole team.
Copenhagen got a draw against Bayern because of determination, Manchester United and Erik Teen Haag can take a cue from them and know how to go about Bayern and we could see some huge surprises

If Bayern Munich does not field all the main players or only uses reserve players then it is very likely that Manchester United still has chance to win or have draw, but if Tuchel uses their full strength then Manchester United will experience big defeat.
I know there are surprises in football and surprises come due to luck such as opponents making various mistakes but it seems like luck or surprises will never come in this match.
Tan Hag and Manchester United will go home, they will not get anything from the UCL and this is Ten Hag's failure in bringing Manchester United to compete far enough in the UCL.
The only way is to get top ranking of Premier League to be able to have ticket in the UCL next season and avenge this season failure.

Bayern Munich have achieved top ranking without difficult competition during the group phase and after this they competed in the round of 16 where they were filled with big and strong team.
It is also true that the obstacles and pressure faced by Bayern Munich are just about to begin, they will meet much stronger team so Tuchel really has tougher task.
If Bayern can compete well in the round 16 and make it in the round 8 then that is an opportunity for them to really fight and of course that round will be the most terrifying round because all the remaining team will beat each other.

For fans, even though Manchester United will win over Bayern Munchen at Old Trafford, this victory can be interpreted as a form of revenge, from this context they will definitely be happy. However, it won't make reality any better if Copenhagen versus Galatasaray beat each other and don't draw. To be honest, in simple terms, if United failed to qualify for the round of 16, fans would be very disappointed. Apart from that, for Ten Hag there may be a performance evaluation from club officials in the future, currently I am not sure he can last much longer in the capacity of head coach at Old Trafford.

Personally, I hope that Rashford will be kept by Ten Hag, I saw that his game in the match versus Newcastle yesterday in the EPL was very far from standard. His movements seemed invisible, and many even criticized Ten Hag policy of taking his place too late in the match. Ten Hag must determine his starting XI wisely, if he doesn't want to be beaten a second time by Bayern.

Manchester United  still have a chance  to qualify for the  next round. But  for this they must win. They need to get 3 points against Bayern Munich. At the same time, Manchester United can  qualify for the round of 16 only if the match between Galatasaray and Copenhagen is a draw.

Manchester United have not won a single match in their last 5  meetings against Bayern Munich. They have lost all 4 matches and United managed to draw only one match. That is why the probability of Manchester United winning against Bayern Munich is very low, even though the match is not important for Munich. Even though Munich's second-tier squad plays in this match, I consider the Munich team to be the favourites.

I agree with you, if Manchester united eventually win Bayern probably because bayern use theirs rotational payers knowing how risk free this match is to them and it turns in favour of Manchester united, they will still hope Copenhagen draw against Galatasaray.

If either of both Galatasaray or Copenhagen wins then Manchester united have no chance because they will be ahead of Manchester, the only option will be Manchester going to the Europa which I don't think they will still have a chance at with their current form because at the Europa they will be meeting the links of Leverkusen and Liverpool, so basically they should focus on the premier league and making sure to qualify for for UCL next season.

Bayern Munich's early performance isn't surprising. They had it easy in their group, which inflated their achievement. They're through to the next round, but the true challenge begins now. Arsenal and Real Madrid won't have it easy. Bayern may struggle to sustain form against these harder opponents. Dominating a weaker group is different from facing the heavyweights. Let's discuss Manchester United. They've disappointed, and Ten Hag's tactics aren't working. It's heartbreaking to see a legendary club failing. They need management and tactics changes, not simply new players. If nothing changes soon, United's top-tier future is bleak.

I know there will be no more opportunities to get a ticket to continue for MU. But Ten Hag teachers and students need to be determined to win, even if they are eliminated. Because, after all, it is an honorable victory for their fans. With this victory, Ten Hag may continue to retain his coaching position. They have played exceptionally poorly this season. There is no more reason for them to justify their mistakes. A victory against the mighty Bayern would replace their explanation.

I don't know if Marcus Rashford will play in this match. Rashford was sent off in Man United's recent defeat to Copenhagen for fouling Elias Jerert. Hopefully, he will be present in this match because he is MU's central striker.

Manchester United doesn't stand a chance against Bayern Munich because the way they have been playing lately is nothing compared to Bayern Munich performance because even considering there last meeting, Bayern Munich was able to beat them so there is every possibility that Bayern Munich is still going to beat them again on there next meeting so I don't think Manchester United stands a chance of qualifying from there group although if it was clubs like Galatasaray or Copenhagen I would have said there is a possibility of qualifying, but to win Bayern Munich I don't think is possible for them.

However for the second I'm seeing Copenhagen qualifying because they have a high chance of wining Galatasaray and also considering were they are on there group table.
