UEFA Champions League Round of 16 Draw 2020 21 Schedule announced.

The draw for the Round of 16 of the 2020-21 UEFA Champions League was announced at the UCL headquarters at Nyon, Switzerland on Monday, December 14th. After an exciting round of matches in the Group stages, Europe's Final 16 clubs get ready for the battle of the knock-out stages commencing  February-mid.

The iconic Lionel Messi and Brazilian superstar Neymar will come face-to-face in a headline grabbing clash between Barcelona and Paris St Germain. Portuguese legend and ex-Real Madrid talisman Cristiano Ronaldo will return to his country, when his club Juventus will be up against Porto.

Three English clubs featuring in the Final 16 – Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester City have tough outings waiting for them.

While Guardiola's City run into gritty Bundesliga outfit Borussia Monchengladbach, 2018 champions Liverpool will have to deal with last year's semi-finalists RB Leipzig who have come out of a very impressive win over Manchester United to progress in the knock-out phase.

Chelsea have the daunting task of facing a very difficult Atletico Madrid side who are having a fabulous La Liga season, topping the tables in Spain.

Thirteen-time champions Real Madrid are finally finding their feet after a nightmarish start to the 2020-21 season and shouldn't have problems dealing with Italian side Atalanta while title holders Bayern Munich are pitted against relatively easier opponents in the form of Serie A side Lazio.

Borussia Dortmund and Europa League champions  Sevilla are ranged against each other in what promises to be one more mouth-watering contest.
