10:45 – The stakes of the match
Last week, Arsenal, clear winner of Lens (6-0), and PSV Eindhoven, victorious in Seville (2-3), validated their ticket for the round of 16. The Lensois and the Sevillians therefore face each other this evening for third place in the group, qualifying for the play-offs of Europa League (against a 2nd place in the Europa League group). In the event of an Andalusian victory, Sevilla FC would return to equal points with Lens, but would be ahead on the particular goal difference, after the draw in the first leg (1-1). But if Lens wins or draws at home, the Northerners will keep their third place. They can no longer finish second, as they will be behind PSV Eindhoven on special goal difference even if tied on points.
10:01 – The classification of group B
Arsenal are guaranteed to finish first, and PSV will take the other place for the round of 16, regardless of the result between the two teams tonight. Lens and Sevilla will compete for third position at the Stade Bollaert.
Group B ranking:
- Arsenal: 12 points
- PSV Eindhoven: 8 points
- RC Lens: 5 points
- Sevilla FC : 2 points
