Of the four games that close the round of 16 of the Champions League, two will take place this Tuesday, March 15.
The clash between Cristiano Ronaldo’s Manchester United and Atlético de Madrid dominates the scene at Old Traford, the English stadium.
In the last game, the British eleventh managed to draw 1-1 in Madrid and left it all even to achieve the necessary advantage at home.
With Cristiano Ronaldo continuing to score, just as he did last weekend in the Premier League, with another hat trick to become the top scorer in football history with 807 goals scored, United hope they will have no trouble dispatching to one of the teams fighting for the title of the Spanish League.
To do this, you need to break the streak of eliminations, in the last three occasions in which you have drawn in the first legs.
Atlético de Madrid has gone through a similar situation, as it has been left out on three of the last four occasions, in which it has drawn at home, these two-leg games.
The other meeting this Tuesday is starring the almost unbeatable Ajax from Amsterdam who host the surprising Benfica from Lisbon.
With the series tied 2-2, after parity in Lisbon, Ajax hopes to unleash the power they always had by winning every game of the knockout round at home.
Benfica qualified second in their group behind Bayern Munich and had the luxury of taking out FC Barcelona who finished third and was left to play in the Europa League.
