Which teams still have a chance to qualify for the next stage of the Champions League

Now that the Group Stages are over and we have the final 16 teams remaining in the UEFA Champions League, there will be many that will immediately be looking ahead to the knockout stages and trying to predict which teams will be able to progress, while also looking at which teams they feel will be unable to go any further.

Indeed, while the club tournament is the premier sporting competition across Europe, the tournament that features many of the continent’s elite clubs has widespread appeal, with fans from all over the globe continuing to tune in wherever they are.

Fans in the US continue to enjoy the matches played, while audiences flock as far as wide as Asia and Australia, too. In conjunction with the fan appeal that is experienced in these countries, football has also become the perfect addition for many to their gambling hobbies. Taking Australia as an example, many enjoy sports betting on the action as well as enjoying the best

sites that are available at the same time because it has allowed them to enhance both pastimes in an incredible way.

However, the Reds could end up facing the likes of Bayern and Real Madrid in the next stage, whereas the other three English teams could end up drawing Paris Saint-Germain, Milan, and Inter in the Last 16, thus providing them with a potentially tricky clash.

Final Thoughts

There is no doubt that we could end up having eight incredible matches in the upcoming UCL Last 16 round, with each of the teams involved having squads that are full of star quality and can all be considered dangerous opponents when on the field.
