The Group F standings board is like a ladder and the opportunity to qualify for the next stage is not much different from their position in the standings. On the other hand, the opportunity for the four clubs to qualify from the group phase and progressed to the top 16 is still the same because they do not have a big difference in points. In accordance with the composition of the clubs in it, group F is like Hell and difficult to predict. It is very likely that the PSG vs Milan and Dortmund vs Newcastle matches on matchday three will end as you say.
However, if you look at it from another perspective, PSG and Newcastle will have an advantage because they are playing at home, so their chances of securing full points are slightly greater than Milan and Dortmund. I think after this match the favorite club will emerge in Group F, for now it is still unclear.
Upcoming Group F matches
- Newcastle vs Dortmund
- PSG vs Milan
Newcastle on better performance after winning dramatically from favorite team PSG and they are on top confidence next match with weakness opponent teams Dortmund on bottom standings in Group F. I think in this group have chance for PSG and Newcastle will qualify to next round but depending on PSG match result will get three points face Milan next match or not. However Dortmund with one points awhile not close yet their opportunity for qualifying to the next round regarding with four matches left but they have wake up and take first three points against Newcastle United if want secure their position finish on 1st or 2nd standings place. I doubt with AC Milan opportunity, still not winning yet in last two matches and against PSG next match seems difficult take three points actually PSG will make Milan as their moment for waking up after defeating by Newcastle United last match before.
