We’ve conceded 2 goals in 4 out of our last 5 away games.

 

Are you saying we're going to win 3-2?

[Erikse]

Does head-to-head away goals decide it if Milan and Dortmund draw both games against each other, and end up tied? Or does it go straight to overall goal difference?

Need to beat Milan and need an already qualified Dortmund to help us. They do have something to play for though (top of the group).

[Whitley mag]

PSG have to win in Dortmund when we beat Milan, where still in with a great chance Dortmund won’t roll over at home.

[Gallowgate Toon]

To be in with a qualification shout for the final game while being in 3 competitions with an injury crisis is some fucking going.

[mikejaxer]

The fact that we're still in with a chance of going through on the last match is enough for me. 

 

Dortmund is at home and we're at home. Odds are in our favour. St James is going to be bouncing.

[Colos Short and Curlies]

Its basically a Feyenoord situation again isn't it

Dortmund are already through.

Been a cracking group like. Competitive and intense. Been a lot of fun.

Aye but I doubt they'll just rollover for PSG to beat them.

[SUPERTOON]

The atmosphere for Milan is going to be epic, I can’t wait.

Assuming Dortmund need something for top spot ?

[Tiresias]

If we go out (and i think dortmund already through are unlikely to try too hard vs psg tbh) it was due to the dortmund at home game, as frustrating as that robbery was 1-1 away in paris is objectively a good result. We should not have lost at home. Oh well, was always going to be really hard even before our injuries

That will help us. They need a draw to secure top spot. Very intriguing last day. 

[Dokko]

Anything but a loss in the last game and it's a fucking brilliant 1st campaign in the CL. Would mean only one of those 3 seasoned teams beat us and only one got the better of us. Mad it's dortmund.

 

Incredible effort.

Yeah PSG would win group on head to head with Dortmund, every incentive for them to win.

[patrone]

Bring on Milan. 

 

Hopefully it will be bouncing

 

😂😂

[James]

Its win win win going into the last game.

 

If we place 2nd, we exceed expectations in the CL this season. We claim a financial bonus and improve our European ranking for future seasons.

 

If we place 3rd, we have always enjoyed the UEFA Cup and done well. More coefficient points and a genuine chance of a trophy.

 

if we place 4th we can be proud of our performances in returning on the CL and can rest and refocus on a trio of domestic opportunities.

[timeEd32]

If the other groups stay as is the difference between topping the group and 2nd for Dortmund is:

 

Arsenal

Madrid

Sociedad

Atletico

City

Barcelona

 

OR

 

Porto

Lazio

Inter

Napoli

PSV

Copenhagen

 

They should care.

[Vaj]

Incredible to still be in it. Obviously we are desperate for second but if it is a score draw do we come third or fourth? I.e. do away goals count in head to head? 

[Krabbe2]

Unfortunately, it is typical if PSG wins against Dortmund. It is written in stone that they should.
 

Anyway, the Milan match must be played and must be won and it can be tough enough.

I don’t think we would’ve lost if Isak wasn’t injured. The guys are doing well given the circumstances.

If we draw 0-0, we qualify to EL based on goal difference, if we draw 1-1, 2-2, etc we would be fourth due to head to head results.

Dortmund are obviously going to go all in vs PSG. 

 

Price money for the win itself is not insignificant.

First place in the group means an easier opponent.

They are playing at home against a big european club. 

[Vaj]

Also Dortmund would rather us go through considering they’ve done the double over us already. They’ll think they have our number if we were to meet in a later round.
