Champions League Standings: Who Will Advance to the Round of 16?

After four matchdays, no team has yet secured enough points to automatically qualify for the Round of 16. However, Liverpool, with 12 points, appears well on its way to advancing. Sporting, Monaco, Brest, and Inter (each with 10 points) are also in a strong position, followed by Barcelona, Borussia Dortmund, and Aston Villa (each with 9 points).

Atalanta, currently in 9th place with 8 points (2 wins and 2 draws), may need to compete in the playoffs if the standings remain unchanged. In this scenario, Gasperini's team would face another playoff-qualified team in a two-legged tie on February 11 and 12. The playoff winners will join the top 8 teams to form the final stage bracket.
