Some big matchups to watch out for in RO16

The first leg of the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 is about to kick off, with Europe’s top clubs battling for a place in the quarterfinals. Football fans in India are in for an electrifying showdown on Sony Sports Network.

The first match of the Round of 16 will see Club Brugge face Aston Villa on Tuesday, March 4, at 11:15 PM IST. This promises to be an intriguing encounter for several reasons. Club Brugge will be entering the match on a high after their strong attacking displays against Atalanta in the playoffs.

Meanwhile, Aston Villa has been revitalized by January signings such as Marcus Rashford and Marco Asensio, with both players enjoying a stellar run of form. For Rashford, it feels like a new lease of life after a challenging spell at Manchester United under manager Ruben Amorim. Villa will be keen to secure at least a draw in Belgium, knowing the match will be a tough test.

On Wednesday, March 5, the Madrid derby will take centre stage as Real Madrid hosts Atlético Madrid. This clash is not just about bragging rights but also about asserting dominance in the battle at the top of La Liga, where Barcelona, Real Madrid, and Atlético are all vying for supremacy. Atlético Madrid comes into the match in excellent form, with Julian Álvarez and Alexander Sørloth in top scoring form, while Real Madrid, fresh from eliminating Manchester City in the playoffs, will be looking to build on that success.

Additionally, with the home advantage and Kylian Mbappé finally finding his scoring rhythm, Madrid will be confident going into the match. On the same night, PSV will take on Arsenal, Borussia Dortmund will face Lille, and Feyenoord will meet Inter. All the matches on the night will be played at 1:30 AM IST apart from Feyenoord vs. Inter which is scheduled to be played at 11:15 PM IST.

Thursday, March 6, will feature a series of high-stakes encounters. Bayern Munich will face Bayer Leverkusen in a crucial clash to assert their European supremacy, with Bayern leading the Bundesliga by a significant margin. Meanwhile, PSG will face Liverpool in a match where the odds may favour Liverpool, but PSG should not be underestimated. Finally, Barcelona, the tournament’s top scorers, will take on Benfica, with the Catalan giants entering as clear favourites to win. All the matches will be LIVE at 1:30 AM IST.
