Manchester United and Newcastle United go into the final week of the Champions League group stages with work to do if they are to reach the knockouts.<\/p>\n

United\u2019s hopes of qualifying for the last-16 remain alive despite a chaotic European campaign so far under Erik ten Hag, although their fate is no longer in their hands following a dramatic 3-3 draw in Galatasaray.<\/p>\n

Newcastle have had a harder route on their return to the Champions League after being drawn into the \u2018group of death\u2019 along with Paris Saint-Germian, Borussia Dortmund and AC Milan.<\/p>\n

Despite being denied a famous win at PSG in the final seconds last time out, Eddie Howe\u2019s injury-hit side go into their decider against AC Milan knowing they could yet join Borussia Dortmund in the last-16.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s everything you need to know ahead of the final round of fixtures.<\/p>\n

How can Manchester United qualify?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

United must beat Bayern Munich at Old Trafford to have any hope of qualifying, and even then they need other results to go their way.<\/p>\n

If United beat Bayern, they will only go through to the last-16 if the match between FC Copenhagen and Galatasaray finishes as a draw.<\/p>\n

If either Copenhagen or Galatasaray win, United will be knocked out of the Champions League, regardless of their result against Bayern.<\/p>\n

United will go through to the Europa League if they finish third, which would be confirmed if they beat Bayern, regardless of the result between Copenhagen and Galatasaray.<\/p>\n

United will finish fourth and would be out of Europe if they lose at Old Trafford, or if both Group A matches finish as a draw.<\/p>\n

How can Newcastle qualify?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Newcastle must beat AC Milan at home and hope Paris Saint-Germain either draw or lose away to Borussia Dortmund, who are already through to the last-16. Any other result for Newcastle will not be enough to reach the knockouts.<\/p>\n

PSG will be through to the last-16 with a win, or with a draw if AC Milan win at St James\u2019 Park. PSG will only go through with a defeat if AC Milan and Newcastle draw. Milan will qualify if they beat Newcastle and Dortmund beat PSG.<\/p>\n

Newcastle will drop into the Europa League if they draw against Milan and finish level on points with the Italians.<\/p>\n
