Benfica 0–1 Inter Milan
36' Godín (Sanchez)

A close but very entertaining match was played between these two teams who are lingering on the top half of the table. The teams played a very offensive game, generating more than 20 shots although only half of them hit the target. The goalkeepers made several key saves but it was Inter who took the win after scoring ten minutes before halftime. Benfica was also left with 10 men minutes after the opening goal.

Dynamo Kyiv 2–0 Genk
76' Popov (Pivarić)
85' Andriyevskyi (Shepelyev)

This was a game that ended with almost 35 total shots. Regardless of this abnormally high amount, only 9 hit the target. The first half didn't produced much action but during the second half, things changed. Dynamo scored twice in the final 15 minutes and even had a goal ruled offside on stoppage time. Genk's desperate attempts to score a goal contributed to the high quantity of shots, but they were in vain.

Trabzonspor 0–0 Eintracht Frankfurt
This was a physical and somewhat disappointing match. Only 9 total shots were taken; none of them were on target. The home team did well at containing Eintracht's attack, but the price for doing that was costly. They received 4 yellow cards in addition to a red card early in the second half.

Red Bull Salzburg 0–1 Liverpool
56' Mané

This encounter was a really interesting one. The home team was able to keep Liverpool's attack under control during the entire first half; in fact, Salzburg had more shots than Liverpool during the first half. The visitors made strategic changes for the second half and that resulted in a goal after a great solo effort by Sadio Mané. In addition to all this, both teams saw them hit the post on one occasion.

Barcelona 1–0 Dinamo Zagreb
42' Rakitić (Halilović)

Not much action happened in this game. Barcelona played with their substitutes for the most part and that was shown with the lack of attacking plays. Nonetheless, they won the match after scoring shortly before halftime.

Sparta Praha 1–0 Celtic
49' Kanga (Plavšić)

This was another match that wasn't filled with action. The first half mostly consisted of both teams passing the ball around the middle, trying the break the opposition's defence. As the second half began, the home team found that opening in Celtic's defense and managed to score what ended up being the winning goal.
