Ajax’s elimination means Lazio have a good chance of being seeded in the Champions League play-off draw.
The Dutch giants surprisingly lost 3-2 at home to Rapid Vienna, going out 5-4 on aggregate.
If CSKA Moscow and Shakhtar Donetsk also fail to go through, it will mean Lazio are top seeds in the draw for the play-off.
This could be crucial, as it would mean avoiding the likes of Manchester United, Valencia and Bayer Leverkusen.

The scenario is more than plausible, as both CSKA Moscow and Shakhtar only drew the first legs against Sparta Prague and Fenerbahce respectively.
