Football, Champions League: Prediction and preview of the second day of the second legs of the Round of 16
Кубок
On Wednesday, March 18, the second day of the Champions League Round of 16 return legs will take place. “Pryamoy” offers you a preview and prediction of the results of these matches, which will determine all future quarterfinalists of the 2025-2026 Champions League season.
Barcelona — Newcastle
The first match between these teams, held a week ago at St. James’ Park, ended in a 1-1 draw. Predictions favor Barcelona, which should win at its home ground, the Camp Nou. Head-to-head results also favor the Catalans. As a reminder, of the five matches these teams have played in the Champions League, the English team has won only one and drawn the other (a week ago).
The starting whistle will sound at 19:45 Kyiv time.
Bayern – Atalanta
Everything is clear here. In the previous match in Bergamo, Bayern crushed Atalanta 6-1. The question is no longer whether the Munich club will advance to the quarterfinals, but whether Atalanta will suffer a second consecutive defeat.
The match at the Allianz Arena in Munich is scheduled to begin at 10:00 PM Kyiv time.
Tottenham – Atletico
The winner of this match is also likely already known. All the stars point to Atlético Madrid, who won the first leg 5-2. However, anything is possible in football, especially in the Champions League. The story of the brave Norwegian side Bodø-Glimt, who won their home match against Sporting CP 3-0 in the round of 16, only to lose 5-0 in Lisbon, is further proof of this.
The match at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium kicks off at 10:00 PM Kyiv time. Bookmakers are giving Tottenham a slight lead and predicting a high-scoring game.
Liverpool vs. Galatasaray
Galatasaray won the first leg 1-0. The handicap is small, so the intrigue remains. Bookmakers favor Liverpool. Odds are, of course, fickle, but if you bet 100 hryvnias on a Galatasaray victory, you could win over 1,000.
This match at Anfield will start at 22:00 Kyiv time.
