If this is confirmed after 6 matches, the big shock will be Paris Saint-Germain missing out on the knockout phase.

A win over Lyon will see them top the group, but a point would be enough to reach the knock out stage.
The Premier League leaders lost at home to the same opponents in September.
Guardiola is ignoring the statistics and says nothing is guaranteed.
Meanwhile, Manchester United are also in Champions League action tonight.
The Red Devils will be hoping to return to winnings ways by beating Swiss side Young Boys.
Saturday's Premier League draw with Crystal Palace means United have won just three of their nine games at Old Trafford this season.
