I've just checked the qualification summary and Liverpool can still qualify if they draw and Besiktas beat Porto
It's a bit
but I'll try to explain it...
If Besiktas win and Liverpool draw then Besiktas are on 9 points so will be top of the group.
The other 3 teams will be on 8 points and teams level on points are decided by head-to-head results.
I thought this would mean Liverpool would be out because Marseille would have a better head-to-head record against them.
However, Porto have a better head-to head record against Marseille but a worse head-to-head record against Liverpool and Porto can not be above Marseille AND below Liverpool based on head-to head results because Marseille are above Liverpool!
This means it will be based on head-to-head goal difference. Liverpool hammered Porto 4-1 last night so would go through on the goal difference based on results against Porto and Marseille only i.e. the 8 they scored against Besiktas are not taken into account.
Does that make sense?
