Among the premier games, Inter will play Manchester United, Real Madrid v. Liverpool, Chelsea v. Juventus and Arsenal will play Roma. Barcelona will take on Lyon, Sporting v. Bayern, Atletico v. Porto and finally Villareal v. Panathinaikos.
Lots of story lines and lots of what should be entertaining games. It was nice to see some new matchups (thankfully not another Barca/Chelsea) and the most interesting matchups seems to be Chelsea v Juventus.
Teams listed first in the image will play home the first game (25/25th of February) and away in the second leg (10/11th of March). Predictions will be posted soon.
