Champions League games today, March 17: How to watch the round of 16 matches on TV and stream online
Get the full lowdown on today’s UCL schedule: kickoff times, first-leg scores and how to watch the Champions League action.
In today’s Champions League last-16 second legs, all but one tie features a lopsided opening-leg score: Sporting CP, Chelsea and Manchester City each face the task of overcoming a three-goal deficit if they’re to qualify for the quarterfinals.
Last Wednesday, Sporting and City suffered 3-0 away defeats to Bodø/Glimt and Real Madrid, respectively, while Chelsea were thumped 5-2 by holders Paris Saint-Germain in the French capital. To progress to the last eight, each must now pull off a second-leg fightback witnessed only four times previously in the Champions League’s more than three-decade history.
Arsenal and Bayer Leverkusen, who drew 1-1 in Germany six days ago, face off in today’s only last-16 tie that remains finely balanced at the halfway stage.
