What next for Arsenal and City

Last updated : 06 December 2016 By DSG

Monday lunchtime

With City guaranteed to be second in their group and Arsenal looking massively likely to be Group A runners up, the options facing both teams are very similar

Taking the exception to the rule first, Arsenal could get Barcelona (again), whilst City could face PSG (again, again)

So who is left:

The potential Group winning opponents are:

Group B: Benfica/Napoli/Besiktas

Group D: Atletico Madrid

Group E: Monaco

Group F: Real Madrid/Dortmund

Group H Juventus/Sevilla

It is pretty clear that despite having three potential opponents Group B offers the simplest route to the quarter finals for both teams

After that and despite comfortably disposing of Spurs home and away en route to topping their group, Monaco would seem like the next best option

The it's pretty much even with Real and Juventus likely to join Atletico as a trio to be avoided.

This could all change for Arsenal in Basel tonight if they better PSG's result against Ludogorets respectively, but the way it stands, for the club or clubs that don't get the Group B winner, it could be Monte Carlo or bust.
