The UEFA Champions League round of 16 draws for the 2023/2024 season was held at the House of European Football in Nyon, Switzerland, on Monday, December 18.
The 2023-24 Champions League enters the knockout stages as qualified teams play each other to qualify for the quarterfinals, semifinals, and finals. The awaited UCL draw is a strong determiner of what the finals would be like.
The 16 clubs from all around Europe will begin play on the eve of Valentine’s, with the current champions, Manchester City, playing against the Danish football club, Copenhagen, in an away game. In what seemed like a pairing of the bigger teams against lesser clubs, the UCL draw will be a clash of desire.
The draw is as follows: Copenhagen vs Manchester City, Leipzig vs Real Madrid, Lazio vs Bayern Munich, PSV vs Dortmund, Inter Milan vs Atlético Madrid, PSG vs Real Sociedad, Napoli vs Barcelona, and Porto vs Arsenal.
