Robert Lewandowski scored twice on his 100th European appearance to leave Bayern Munich on the verge of the last 16 after a 2-0 win over AEK at the Allianz Arena.
Lewandowski converted a first-half penalty then volleyed home with an athletic leap after the break to leave him on 56 goals in Europe.
The victory saw Bayern claim top spot in Group E with 10 points.
Benfica's 1-1 draw at Ajax virtually assures Bayern of a place in the last 16 and a point against Benfica in three weeks will guarantee their place in the knock-out phase.
"We took a good step forwards and had the game under control in the decisive moments," said Lewandowski.
"We know that we can do better, but the win was very important for our self confidence."
