Toulouse FC vs. Union Saint-Gilloise: 0-0

Despite the scoreless draw, Les Violets, who have eight points in Group E, still control their destiny heading into Matchday 6. All they'll need is a draw or win over LASK. However, there's also the scenario of Union Saint-Gilloise losing or drawing against Liverpool, a result which would allow Toulouse to book their plans for the knockout stages.

Stade Rennais vs. Maccabi Haifa: 3-0 

Les Rouge et Noirs are into the knockout stages after their win over Maccabi Haifa saw them move into first place with 12 points in Group F. Martin Terrier, Amine Gouiri, and Fabian Rieder provided the scoring punch in the victory. 

Now, all that's left for them to do is determine whether they'll be the group winners or finish in second place. Villarreal has a makeup game against Maccabi Haifa on Dec. 6. Should the Spanish club draw or win, it will set up a winner-take-all match against Rennes on Dec. 14.
