The UEFA Champions League Draw for the Round of 16 was decleared yesterday and it has given us some smashing games to look up to.

Chelsea v Juventus

Villarreal v Panathinaikos

Sporting Lisbon v Bayern Munich

Atletico Madrid v FC Porto

Lyon v Barcelona

Real Madrid v Liverpool

Arsenal v Roma

Inter Milan v Manchester United

As one can clearly see, there are four real ‘big’ games between the top sides, and four not so huge contests. The four English sides are facing a really stiff task which is sure to test their pedigree and title credentials. Atletico Madrid, Villareal, Barcelona and Bayern Munich should fancy their chances of making it to the last eight.

AC Milan face Werder Bremen in a really tough encounter, while Tottenham and Aston Villa may meet each other in the next round - provided they win their games.
