Tuesday 16th February
Barcelona 20:00 Paris Saint-Germain
RB Leipzig 20:00 Liverpool
I want to share my opinions about the first games of 1/8 finals.
Barcelona 20:00 Paris Saint-Germain : For this game, I expect a draw. Each side has a very tight schedule until this game. Each side will have 2 games on Feb 10 and Feb 13 before this game. Barcelona still depend on Messi too much and I've no doubt that he will play a key role in this draw too. But I think PSG are too strong compared to them. I believe that Barcelona can withstand them in Camp Nou.
RB Leipzig 20:00 Liverpool : This game is going to be played in a neutral location, Puskás Aréna. This is a disadvantage for Leipzig. But Liverpool have been too bad for some weeks and they could struggle in this game. So I think that Leipzig can get an advantageous result before going to Anfield.
Barcelona will face PSG in the last 16 of the champions league first leg, this match will prove for the new coach Pocchetino to be able to continue the positive trend when Tuchel was able to bring PSG to the final of last season's champions league, especially the match between Barcelona vs PSG will be very interesting. PSG's revenge on Barcelona's comeback two seasons ago.
