This week marks the fourth round of fixtures in this season’s Champions League group stages, and we took a closer look at five of the most significant talking points ahead of Wednesday’s games.
Some sides are in desperate need of a win if they want to progress to the knockout stages of the competition, with others under less pressure due to the points picked up in the opening three games.

Napoli to extend the gap?
Napoli v Union Berlin
Serie A outfit Napoli currently sit second in Group C, and they match up against Union Berlin who are without a single point so far, so the Italian side will be hoping that they can pick up three points and edge closer to the knockout stages.
United need to win
FC Copenhagen v Manchester United
Manchester United have had a disappointing start to the 2023/24 campaign on all accounts and they are on track to be knocked out of the Champions League, so Erik ten Hag might feel like his side has to win against Copenhagen if they want a chance of progressing out of the group.
Sociedad to continue unbeaten run?
Real Sociedad v SL Benfica
Real Sociedad sit top of Group D as they are unbeaten after three games played, and they match up against Benfica, who have lost all three of their opening games, so they will be fully expected to continue their unbeaten run in this one.
Massive game for Salzburg
Red Bull Salzburg v Inter Milan
Salzburg find themselves sitting in 3rd place in Group D and are currently four points behind Inter Milan who sit second. If the Italian outfit beats Salzburg in this one, it looks unlikely that Salzburg will progress into the knockout stages.
Important game for Sevilla
Arsenal v Sevilla
Top of Group B Arsenal will host Sevilla on Wednesday night, with the Spanish side sitting third in the group, three points away from second place. They will need to pick up points and hope that Lens drop points in their remaining fixtures if they want to make it out of the group.
