Besiktas are only one point behind them and finish with a trip to Dynamo Kiev.

Napoli will go through to the knockouts if they pick up at least a point in Lisbon, as that would ensure they finish level with Benfica and maintain the superior head-to-head record (having won 4-2 at the Stadio San Paolo).

Maurizio Sarri’s men could even top the group with a draw if Besiktas fail to win in Ukraine.
