First-leg Winners
- Ajax
- Arsenal
- Granada
- Roma
- Tottenham
- Villarreal
Ajax and Roma place themselves in the most ideal situation after winning by 3 goals at home without conceding an away goal.
Tottenham and Granada didn’t do too bad either. They both kept a clean sheet at home while winning by 2 goals.
AC Milan and Rangers came from behind to pick up a draw and an important away goal.
AC Milan’s goal came in the final additional minutes to deny Manchester United.
Arsenal made things a bit complicated when they gifted Olympiacos a goal through defensive errors, but in the end they made up for their mistakes and sealed a 3-1 win on the road. If they don’t make mistakes at home, it should be a job done for the Gunners.
