Five places are left in the Round of 16 - and on Tuesday night we're going to find out who'll be taking them. We take you through the maths and what needs to happen on what is sure to be an exciting night!

Group A

  • Frölunda Indians: Already qualified
  • Vienna Capitals: Need to beat ZSC Lions by 4 goals to qualify. They can also do it if they win by three, but would need to score at least eight (i.e. 8-5, 9-6, 10-7 etc.). If it's 7-4 again, ZSC win the tie-break as higher seeds in the CHL ranking before the 2018/19 draw. However if Frölunda get 0 points in Aalborg, it's a three-way tie and Vienna would only need to win by a goal.
  • ZSC Lions: Need to do no worse than lose to Vienna by two goals, or lose by three but not allow Vienna to score more then seven goals. If Aalborg win in regulation, the Lions will need at least a point.
  • Aalborg Pirates: Eliminated, looking for first regulation win
     

Group B

  • Red Bull Munich: Qualified, playing to secure top spot
  • Malmö Redhawks: Qualified, playing to secure top spot
  • TPS Turku: Eliminated
  • Yunost Minsk: Eliminated, but have only ever lost once at home in the CHL
     

Group C

  • Skellefteå AIK: Already qualified and top of the group
  • HC Bolzano: Need to match IFK Helsinki's result as they hold the tie-break advantage.Therefore they will qualify if both teams lose
  • IFK Helsinki: Must better HC Bolzano's result. If both get the same number of points, then IFK are eliminated due to worse Head-to-Head record
  • GKS Tychy: Eliminated, playing to help Poland in the overall ranking and spoil Bolzano's party
     

Group D:

  • EV Zug: Qualified and secured top in the group
  • Kometa Brno: Qualified
  • Neman Grodno: Eliminated, playing to finish third in the group
  • Eisbären Berlin: Eliminated, playing to avoid finishing last in the group
     

Group E

  • Tappara Tampere: Already qualified and top of the group
  • Djurgården Stockholm: Need a point in Tappara, or Storhamar to drop a point, to advance. Hold the better Head-to-Head record over Storhamar
  • Storhamar Hamar: Must win in regulation against Oceláři Třinec, and hope Djurgården get no points
  • Oceláři Třinec: Already eliminated
     

Group F

  • Kärpät Oulu: Already qualified as group winners
  • Thomas Sabo Ice Tigers: Need one point against Rouen to advance to the next round
  • Rouen Dragons: Need a regulation win over the Ice Tigers to advance
  • Mountfield HK: Eliminated, playing to avoid finishing last in the group
     

Group G

  • SC Bern: Already qualified; hoping to keep Switzerland as the top country this year, and top the group
  • Red Bull Salzburg: Already qualified but can steal top spot in the group with regulation win
  • Växjö Lakers: Already eliminated
  • Cardiff Devils: Already eliminated, looking for first CHL win this season
     

Group H

  • HC Pilsen: Already qualified in top spot, looking to maintain 100% record
