The UEFA Champions League 2024-25 edition has reached the round of 16 stages, with half of them finalised after the knockout phase playoffs that ended on February 19.
The fixtures will be confirmed at the House of European Football in Nyon, Switzerland.
This season’s Champions League is being played under a new format, wherein the group stages have been replaced by the league phase, with the top eight qualifying directly for RO16.
