Below explained are the best case scenario of the teams to qualify into the round-of-16 from Group E.
A. Liverpool will go through if they draw, or if Napoli lose to Genk.
B. Napoli will go through if they draw, or if Salzburg do not beat Liverpool.

Ajax will welcome Valencia to Amsterdam in Match Day 6 with both teams desperate to secure a spot in the knockout round of the competition.
The home side are currently top of Group H with 10 points, while Valencia sit second, level on eight points with third-placed Chelsea, who complete their group-stage campaign against Lille. A win at home for Chelsea will see them cruise into the Round of 16 but a draw will put their qualification in the hands of Ajax.
Atletico vs Lokomotiv; Dec 12, 1.35am IST, Live on Sony Ten 3
While Juventus has tied up top spot in UEFA Champions' League Group D, there is an almighty battle developing for second place and a spot in the lucrative knockout stages of the tournament.
Atletico must rediscover form and clinical edge past the Russian outfit to avoid elimination. Atletico had not lost more than once in a group campaign since 2009-10, but back-to-back defeats by Leverkusen and Juventus have ended that run and put qualification in doubt.
