Just like that the Champions Cup enters its final weekend of pool stage action and there are still several places up for grabs in the Round of 16.
Ahead of what is expected to be another blockbuster weekend, here are the permutations for each group heading into the final round.
The French duo of Bordeaux-Begles and Lyon have already qualified for the Round of 16 after a strong performance in their first three games with three wins from three and two wins from three respectively.
For the Bulls it is a simple equation as any point against Bordeaux at Loftus Versfeld gets them through, however, a win is crucial for their prospects of a home tie which is also dependent on Lyon’s clash with Saracens.
Bristol Bears and Saracens are level on five points so the outcomes of their respective matches against Connacht and Lyon will determine who goes through. Connacht are unlikely to progress unless they thrash Bristol and Saracens lose.
Almost all of the places available from this pool have been taken with Toulouse, Bath and Harlequins already having booked their ticket to the Round of 16.
The final place is being fought for between Ulster, Racing 92 and Cardiff. For the former, a win against Quins in London is enough to secure the final spot whilst Racing will be hoping for an Ulster loss which could leave the door open for them should they beat Cardiff.
An Ulster loss could also result in Cardiff qualifying if they manage a win over Racing.
It has been a fruitful pool stage for the two Premiership sides Northampton Saints and Exeter Chiefs who have both qualified. If both teams avoid defeat this weekend then they will secure home play-offs in the Round of 16.
Munster are in a strong position to claim third spot with only one point required. That is made much more difficult as they face up to in-form Northampton this weekend.
Glasgow Warriors also have a shot at the third spot which they can secure with a victory over winless Toulon.
The French side themselves need Exeter to lose to Bayonne and they need to beat Glasgow to have a chance at the final spot. Meanwhile, Bayonne require their compatriots to beat Glasgow whilst getting one over Exeter if they are to qualify. Mathematically speaking all teams are in contention.
The Pool of Death has been fascinating to watch play out with Leinster the only team to qualify and only needing one point to secure a home play-off.
Home Round of 16 clashes are achievable for both Leicester Tigers and the Stormers. By preventing Leinster from getting any bonus points and beating them by 38 points the Tigers could guarantee the home play-off.
The Stormers could achieve the same with a bonus-point win at Stade Francais. Ultimately whichever team has a better outcome this weekend will get a home tie.
Knockout rugby is beyond the reach of Stade Francais this season.
