A pleasant story of the newcomer Bodo\/Glimt<\/span>.<\/p>\nParis Saint-Germain will host an event on Wednesday Chelsea team last July<\/span> stopped champions league winners<\/span> Added Club World Cup title.<\/p>\nFor the second time this season, Real Madrid will host Manchester City in the final tournament for the fifth consecutive year. In three of those years, the winner went on to hoist the trophy.<\/p>\n
Madrid vs. Man City is also one of three round-of-16 pairings that have already been played in the opening stages of the league a few months ago.<\/p>\n
In September, Galatasaray defeated Liverpool in Istanbul. Barcelona leave Newcastle<\/span> On all three points.<\/p>\nGalatasaray and Newcastle will play Champions League matches in March for the first time in 12 and 23 years respectively. Atalanta will host Bayern Munich for the first time in five years, having last reached the round of 16.<\/p>\n
Bod\u00f8\/Glimt ended Norway’s 29-year wait to be represented in the deep end of the competition when Rosenborg reached the quarter-finals from a small group stage of 16 teams.<\/p>\n
Bod\u00f8\/Glimt are currently hosting Sporting Lisbon on an artificial turf field in the Arctic Circle. man city<\/span> and Inter Milan<\/span> Both teams have lost 3-1 in recent months.<\/p>\nThe expected temperature at kickoff in the Norwegian Sea fishing village is 3 degrees Celsius (37 degrees Fahrenheit). <\/p>\n
Mbappe vs Haaland?<\/h2>\n
Josep Guardiola’s side have already won at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium in December. Erling Haaland’s penalty before half-time settled 2-1 victory<\/span> Madrid’s superstar forward Kylian Mbapp\u00e9 remained on the bench.<\/p>\nMbappe is again doubtful that he will be able to play on Wednesday due to a muscle tear in his left knee.<\/p>\n
“We are in control. We are getting better every day,” Madrid coach Alvaro Arbeloa said last week. “For now, it’s all good news.”<\/p>\n
There are only six days between the first leg and the return game in Manchester, but Mbappe and Haaland have the chance to face each other again this season.<\/p>\n
At the World Cup, France will play Norway in the final round of Group I on June 26 at the New England Patriots Stadium near Boston.<\/p>\n
Champions Duel<\/h2>\n
PSG and Chelsea have the feel of a true Champions League rivalry, even though it’s been 10 years since they last faced each other in this competition.<\/p>\n
It was also in the round of 16 in 2016 when Laurent Blanc and Guus Hiddink were respectively the managers. Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s PSG team won both home and away matches in the knockout stages for the third consecutive year.<\/p>\n
The most recent meeting took place eight months ago at MetLife Stadium near New York, where Chelsea, then coached by Enzo Maresca, won a surprise 3-0.

Of the eight pairings to be played this week, only one is a rematch of the first UEFA final since the European Cup began in 1955. Few people will remember it.<\/p>\n
The 1963 European Cup Winners’ Cup final was played in Rotterdam, with Tottenham defeating Atletico Madrid 5-1. This was the only time the two had met before.<\/p>\n
Tottenham have some familiarity with Atl\u00e9tico’s Metropolitano Stadium, as it is the North London club’s home. Lost in the 2019 Champions League final<\/span> Against Liverpool.<\/p>\nAtl\u00e9tico have won just one of their last 10 UEFA matches against England, but on Tuesday they host the side who are 16th in the Premier League and have had a chaotic season.<\/p>\n
tottenham’s Interim coach Igor Tudor<\/span> He is the club’s 12th full-time or part-time hire since Atl\u00e9tico acquired Diego Simeone over 14 years ago.<\/p>\nUnlucky top spot?<\/h2>\n
finish on top 36 team standings<\/span> Things didn’t go well for Liverpool a year ago. Lost to PSG in the round of 16. <\/span><\/p>\nArsenal are on top this time, with 16th seed Bayer Leverkusen and top seeded side in a bracket with the first leg to be held on Wednesday. The lowest-placed team remaining in the tournament was Bodo\/Glimt, who qualified for the final round in 23rd place.<\/p>\n
