While PSG prepare for the decisive blow against Liverpool on Wednesday night in the Champions League, the four teams in Group C stand in just two points. Naples and Liverpool lead with 6 points each, followed by PSG, 5 points, and Belgrade Red Star with 4 points. Qualification for the round of 16 remains possible for all members of the pool. If a defeat or a elimination would not necessarily eliminate the Parisians after this day, a victory would avoid the calculations of grocers.
The classification of group C
1. Naples – 6pts, +1
2. Liverpool – 6pts, +2
3. PSG – 5pts, +4
4. Red Star of Belgrade – 4pts, -7
A victory to regain control

A victory for the Parisians against the Reds would place them in an ideal position to tackle their perilous trip to Belgrade to face the Red Star. PSG would then count 8 points and would even top his group if Naples could not beat the Serbian formation. In case of a positive goal average on the double confrontation with the English club, a draw on December 12th would be enough for Kylian Mbappé and others to move on to the next round.

A draw of Thomas Tuchel's men against the vice-champions of Europe would not condemn them completely before facing Belgrade on 11 December. The German technician and his players would no longer have their fate in their hands and even a victory on the last day might not be enough.
Moreover, if the Neapolitans success against Belgrade, the first place would become inaccessible and a defeat of the transalpine against Liverpool on the last day would qualify Mohamed Salah and his teammates.

The calculation is simple. If the PSG loses against Klopp and his band, they will be out of reach (9pts against 5 for Paris). From then on, the Parisians will have to hope for a double miss (at least one defeat and a draw) of Naples, against Belgrade Wednesday night, then against Liverpool on December 11, to hope to qualify.
A Neapolitan victory at San Paolo and Neymar and his friends at the MCN will be entitled to a small final in Marakana to see who of them or the Red Star of Belgrade will qualify for the knockout stage of the Europa League.
