- Bayern Munich will finish as the top team in Group C if they do not lose to Benfica
- Boca Juniors have a massive task ahead, needing to reverse a seven-goal deficit while also hoping for Benfica to lose in order to advance
- Chelsea's ticket to the knockout stages is dependent on avoiding a defeat against ES Tunis to accompany Flamengo
Bayern Munich have secured their place in the knockout stages from Group C and the final set of matches on Tuesday will determine the other qualifier, with Benfica facing off against Bayern, and Boca Juniors aiming for a significant win against Auckland City.
Flamengo are already through to the next round and their result against the eliminated Los Angeles FC on Wednesday will not change their progression status, while Chelsea and ES Tunis will battle it out to see who advances alongside the Brazilian side.
Auckland City vs Boca Juniors (Tuesday, 8pm)
Auckland City showed some signs of improvement in their last match, but the reality is they are not up to the standard required at this level, losing 10-0 and 6-0 in their previous games. Boca Juniors will be eager to capitalize on the gap in quality with a convincing victory.
Having let a two-goal lead slip against Benfica and coming close against Bayern, Boca Juniors will be determined to make amends and secure a high-scoring win on Tuesday, although they still need Benfica to stumble in their game for a chance to progress.
Score prediction: Auckland City 0-6 Boca Juniors
Benfica vs Bayern Munich (Tuesday, 8pm)
Benfica have the advantage of facing Bayern Munich in their final match when the German side has already guaranteed a spot in the next round. A draw will be sufficient for Benfica to move forward in the competition.
Considering this scenario, both teams are not likely to take excessive risks, especially since a loss for Benfica does not automatically mean elimination. Bayern have a strong record against Benfica, and a similar outcome to their previous encounter is anticipated.
Score prediction: Benfica 0-1 Bayern Munich
Los Angeles FC vs Flamengo (Wednesday, 2am)
In Group D, Flamengo, having secured their place in the knockout stage with wins over ES de Tunis and Chelsea, will face bottom-placed Los Angeles FC, who have been eliminated after losses to the same opponents without scoring a goal.
Flamengo have displayed a solid defensive record, keeping seven clean sheets in their last nine matches, and they are expected to continue this trend with a narrow victory in Orlando.
Score prediction: Los Angeles FC 0-2 Flamengo
ES Tunis vs Chelsea (Wednesday, 2am)
Chelsea's collapse in the second half against Flamengo has added some pressure to their final fixture, where they only need to avoid defeat to progress. This places the onus on ES Tunis to dictate the pace, giving Chelsea opportunities to exploit on the counter.
ES Tunis have not been particularly threatening in attack, and Chelsea can employ a patient approach, waiting for the right moments to strike and secure their spot in the next stage.
Score prediction: ES Tunis 0-2 Chelsea
