With the last day of the UEFA Champions League many are the clubs that have not closed their ticket for the next round. Among the Spanish teams, only Real Madrid has a guaranteed ticket for the round of 16, while Atlético de Madrid, Villarreal, Sevilla and FC Barcelona will have to play it all or nothing.
These are the most outstanding matches of today
Porto – Atlético de Madrid (9:00 p.m. – Movistar Champions League)
Atlético de Madrid will play to go to the second round against Porto in Do Dragao. Those of ‘Cholo’ Simeone will not have it easy because the Portuguese are second in the group with a point difference, so a tie is not an option. Losing this last match would mean qualifying for the Europa League or, in the event that Milan win or draw in Liverpool, stay out of Europe.
Real Madrid – Inter Milan (9:00 p.m. – Movistar Champions League)
Real Madrid will face off against Inter Milan to seal the top spot in the group. Inter is the second placed in the standings, two points behind the whites, so the match will decide the leader. With all the fish sold, the Sheriff secures his place in the Europa League while the Shaktar stays out of Europe.
Milan – Liverpool (9:00 p.m. – Movistar Champions League)
Milan will seek the impossible against Liverpool, the undefeated leaders of the group. Pioli’s men are third in the standings tied on points with Atlético de Madrid and one point with Porto. Although their options are very few, Milan will seek to work the miracle as Istanbul would.
RB Leipzig – Manchester City (18: 45h – Movistar Champions League)
Leipzig will try to seal their ticket to the Europa League against group leaders Manchester City. Pep’s men will take first place no matter what happens in the duel against the Germans, being four points behind PSG, second in the standings.
