Champions League: The titanic battles in the “16” are inevitable

by

Draws at 13:00 for phase of the “16” of the Champions League and as the two capacity groups have been formed it is a given that quite strong pairs will emerge.

There are two restrictions in this draw: You can not face teams from the same country, but also those that competed in the group stage. The teams that finished as leaders of the groups will have the replay at home in the “16” phase.

Capacity groups:

Strong: Liverpool, Bayern, Manchester United, Manchester City, Ajax, Real, Chelsea, Lille

Weak: Paris, Sporting, Atletico, Inter, Juventus, Benfica, Salzburg, Villarreal

The first races will be held on 15, 16, 22 and 23 February and the rematch March 8, 9, 15 and 16 with the cross in all matches taking place at 22:00. The draw for the quarterfinals and semifinals will take place after these matches, on March 18.

It is reminded that the rule of away goals does not apply, therefore the double matches that will have a tie total score, regardless of the goals that will have been scored away from home, will go to extra time and if necessary to the penalties.

The final is scheduled to take place at the Gazprom Arena in St. Petersburg on May 28.
