LONDON -- After providing the Champions League with half its finalists over the last seven years, England could face the embarrassment of having just one team in the knockout round when the group stage concludes this week. Manchester United needs only to avoid defeat at FC Basel to join Arsenal among the last 16 sides, but Chelsea and Premier League leader Manchester City are both vulnerable in their final group matches. Chelsea is likely to need a victory over in-form Valencia to progress, while even a win over four-time European champion Bayern Munich may not be enough to take City through. There are a total seven places still up for grabs, with Marseille and Ajax among the teams in contention to fill them. With three final appearances in the past four years, Manchester United might were expected to be the first English team to advance to the next round. But Arsenal clinched progress last week with victory over Borusssia Dortmund and United still must take at least a point Wednesday against a Basel side that secured a 3-3 draw at Old Trafford in September. "Our form away from home in Europe over the last three or four years has been fantastic," United manager Alex Ferguson said. "Weve really done well and it needs to be that kind of performance on Wednesday." Ferguson is hoping Basels need to win its final Group C match means there will be space to attack as the Swiss side presses for goals. "The only advantage is they do need to win and they have to try to beat us," Ferguson said. "Weve always kept good possession of the ball and made that a dominating factor of our game. It can take the temperature out of the game." United will be without Javier Hernandez after the Mexico striker was hurt in Saturdays 1-0 Premier League win at Aston Villa, but he is expected to be fit in time for the latter stages if his team progresses. Benfica also needs a draw to be sure of progress from Group C when the Portuguese side hosts eliminated Otelul Galati, which has yet to earn a point. Chelsea, runner-up in 2008 to United, could progress with as little as a 0-0 draw Tuesday if Group E leader Bayer Leverkusen beats last-place Genk. But Leverkusen has already advanced and may take its foot off the gas, so the Blues must win to be sure. Unfortunately for Chelsea, Valencia is in form and also targeting the next round. "They are favourites because they are one of the worlds major clubs and because they are playing at home, but they are also going to be under a lot of pressure," Valencia defender Adil Rami said. Valencia routed Genk 7-0 in the last round of matches to join Chelsea on eight points and secure a superior goal difference, before striker Roberto Soldado came off the bench to score a late winner in a 2-1 victory over Espanyol on Saturday -- keeping his side in touch with leading pair Real Madrid and Barcelona in the Spanish league. The 26-year-old Soldado has scored nine goals in the Spanish league to go with five more in the Champions League, making a strong case to be picked for Spains European Championship squad. "It is a game that requires a tactical and emotional preparation," Valencia coach Unai Emery said. "We have to be able to control our emotions in a game of this importance." With Napoli expected to beat Villarreal, Citys expensively assembled squad must beat Group A winner Bayern to be sure of progress. City is cruising unbeaten at the top of the Premier League but has struggled to adjust in its first Champions League season. Edinson Cavani scored twice and Ezequiel Lavezzi and Blerim Dzemaili were also on target as Napoli warmed up for its trip to Spain by beating last-place Lecce 4-2 in Serie A on Saturday -- ending a four-match winless streak in the Italian league. "Its going to be the most important match of the year," Lavezzi said. "This win over Lecce can help increase our self-confidence." Villarreal eliminated Napoli from last seasons Europa League but the injury-hit Spanish club is coming off a 1-0 defeat at Racing Santander -- which had been bottom of the Spanish standings -- that left it just two points above the relegation zone. "We have to show more anger, courage and effort," coach Juan Carlos Garrido said. Lille is among three clubs chasing progress behind Inter Milan in Group B. Victory over Trabzonspor would take Lille through ahead of the Turkish club and CSKA Moscow. Lille coach Rudi Garcia will be without Brazilian striker Tulio De Melo because of a torn hamstring and is sweating over the fitness of central midfielder Benoit Pedretti. Joe Cole and Eden Hazard are likely to start in midfield, with Moussa Sow up front. "Its an important match for the club and for the players," midfielder Florent Balmont said. "We owe it to ourselves to win and to carry on in this competition." Marseille can finish as Group F runner-up to Arsenal with victory at Borussia Dortmund. Any other result could let Olympiakos sneak into second place. Marseille will be without striker Andre-Pierre Gignac because of a groin injury but should be boosted by the return of key striker Loic Remy, who sat Fridays 2-1 win at Caen after twisting his ankle last week. Group H is already settled -- defending champion Barcelona has won the group and AC Milan will advance in second place -- but a place in both Group D and G is still open. Zenit St. Petersburg and FC Porto go head to head to see which of them will advance from Group G with APOEL, the first Cypriot side ever to make the knockout rounds. Ajax needs only a point to be sure in Group D but is up against record nine-time European champion Real Madrid. The Spanish league leader won 3-0 at Sporting Gijon on Saturday with goals from Angel Di Maria, Cristiano Ronaldo and Marcelo. Luckily for Ajax, Madrid already has an eye on next weekends "clasico" against second-place Barcelona. "Imagine if we had four injuries in Amsterdam," Madrid captain Iker Casillas said. Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola has only called up six first-team players for the game against BATE Borisov, resting stars Lionel Messi, David Villa, Xavi Hernandez, Cesc Fabregas and Andres Iniesta among others.

With a heave by his right arm, the Florida State freshman delivered the ball in stride. Winston threw for four touchdowns, including a 55-yard score as time expired in the first half on Saturday to help No. 8 Florida State rally from a slow start and beat Boston College 48-34. BC opened a 14-point lead before the Seminoles scored the next three touchdowns, going ahead for good on the desperation heave to Shaw with 0:00 on the clock. "I knew I had to pick things up," said Winston, who completed 17 of 28 passes for 330 yards and ran 14 times for 67 more. "We harp on scoring before the end of the half. We did it yet again." The highest-scoring team in the Atlantic Coast Conference, Florida State (4-0, 2-0 ACC) topped 40 points for the fourth time this season. But they didnt get the blowout they might have expected against a team that won just two games last season and finished last in the conferences Atlantic Division. "They came out firing," Shaw said. "They came out playing better than we expected. I give them big ups for that." The Eagles (2-2, 1-1) took a 17-3 lead before Winston threw touchdown passes of 56 and 10 yards to tie it. BC got the ball with 1:49 left in the half and tried to run out the clock, but Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher used his timeouts to get the Seminoles the ball back at their own 40 yard-line with 50 seconds to play. After Winston was sacked for a 9-yard loss, Devonta Freeman ran for 14 and the Seminoles hurried to the line of scrimmage to get one more play off. Winston received the snap just before time expired, eluded one tackler as he moved up in the pocket and another as he scrambled right, waved to Shaw to go deep and then let the ball go from his own 40 yard-line as he was hit. Shaw got position on safety Spenser Rositano, jumped at the 5 yard-line, landed at the 1 and fell into the end zone for the touchdown. "It couldnt have been more on the money," Shaw said. "I knew he couldd get it there.dddddddddddd He can throw it probably on his knees to the end zone." Fisher said it wasnt a desperation pass as much as a called play, with Shaw running a double fake before heading to the end zone. Shaw said he didnt have any thought about breaking off his route to bail out Winston as he scrambled out of trouble in the backfield. "There was no time left," he said. "I was going to the end zone." For Boston College, it was a big swing in emotions after taking a lead, then almost getting back to the locker room with the game tied 17-all. The Seminoles barely got the snap off in time, BC coach Steve Addazio said, and twice the Eagles seemed to have him trapped in the pocket. "It was close," he said. "Then I got caught up with the fact that I thought we had him on the ground -- twice. Id seen that same thing happen on tape, where hed spun out of a couple of tackles and threw a dart down field. Give him credit. He made a great football play." Winston added a fourth TD pass in the third quarter, a 10-yard score to Rashad Greene that made it 31-20. Chase Rettig completed 19 of 29 passes for 197 yards and a career-high four touchdowns for BC (2-2, 1-1), including a 52-yard score to Myles Willis that cut a three-score lead to 38-27. But the Eagles quarterback also threw an interception early in the fourth that T.J. Williams returned 20 yards for a touchdown to make it 48-27. Rettig was also picked off by Nate Andrews on a fourth-and-13 from the Florida State 21 yard-line with 2 minutes left. Andre Williams ran 28 times for 149 yards for the Eagles. BC took the lead on its opening possession when Spiffy Evans returned a punt 19 yards to the Florida State 36 and Williams ran six times in seven plays before Rettig hit C.J. Parsons for a 6-yard TD pass. The Eagles made it 14-3 when Rettig connected with Jake Sinkovec for a 3-yard score. It was 17-3 when Winston hit Greene for a 56-yard score, then went 4-for-4 and ran twice for 27 more yards on a seven-play, 80-yard drive that tied the game. ' ' '
