The main club competition in Europe will resume this week.

This Tuesday (20) and Wednesday (21), the Champions League returns with the 18 matches of the seventh and penultimate round of the league phase.

Some teams already have their future outlined in the standings, but there is still much to be decided.

OneFootball helps you recall how the tournament stands and what to expect from the last two rounds of the league phase.

Arsenal is the isolated leader of the league phase, with six wins in six games.

The Gunners have even beaten the second-placed Bayern Munich in a match that took place in London during the fifth round.

Among the most powerful clubs, the situations of Chelsea, Barcelona, and Juventus deserve attention.

The three are unlikely to miss the knockout stage, but they are still seeking a spot in the G8, which qualifies directly for the round of 16.

1st to 8th - advance directly to the round of 16

9th to 24th - advance to the round of 32

25th to 36th - eliminated
