Manchester United, Atletico Madrid and Juventus will all try to secure their positions in the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 today.
United play host to PSV Eindhoven in Group B, while Atletico have the more daunting task of hosting Galatasaray in Group C to lock up a spot in the knockout round. The other Group B matchup sees CSKA Moscow travel to VfL Wolfsburg, with the winner likely to find a spot in the knockout phase. Group C, meanwhile, also features the early game of Benfica at Astana.
Real Madrid will travel to Shakhtar Donetsk in Group A, but Rafa Benitez’s side has already qualified for the Round of 16. Also in Group A, Zlatan Ibrahimovic will return to Malmö with Paris Saint-Germain.
There is some other notable UCL action taking place in Group D this evening, as Juventus will play host to Manchester City with the Italian champions needing a result to move on to the next round. Sevilla will also travel to Borussia Mönchengladbach in this group, with Sevilla needing a win to stay alive in the competition.
Also on the evening, the Liga MX playoffs kick off as Club América host León and Chiapas travel to Tigres UANL in the first leg.
