This week the champions league and europa league return to everyone’s screens as the Round of 16 for both tournaments heats up.
With teams like Liverpool, Manchester City, Real Madrid, Paris Saint Germain and Bayern Munich still in the mix for the Champions league title, the race is getting fun. However out of Real Madrid and Paris Saint Germain, only 1 club will see the light of the quarter finals as the two face each other in theri second leg with the score at 0-1 favouring PSG.
Meanwhile Liverpool, who will face Inter Milan in the second leg tonight, already leading by 2 goals will have no difficulty getting to the next stage considering their great Premier League form.
The same goes for teams like Manchester City and even Bayern Munich. However for teams like Atletico Madrid and Manchester United it will be very difficult. As the two giants face each other in the second leg next week with the score at 1-1, it’ll be interesting to see how the two have changed their squads.
Both United and Atletico have been on a bad run in their respective leagues with United standing at 5th and Atletico at 4th, both teams might fall more in points before the season ends.
Meanwhile over in the Europa League, the first leg of the Round of 16 begins with a very dominant Barcelona at the helm. As La Blaugrana get ready to face Galatasaray after a very long time, their La Liga competitors, Sevilla will be facing West Ham.
Barcelona, if they get to the finals and win, will win the Europa League for the first time ever due to them never being out of the Champions League so early.
