Man City Takes On Real Madrid in Thrilling Champions League Clash
The UEFA Champions League has introduced a new format for the 2024/25 season. The top eight teams from the league phase automatically advance to the Round of 16, while teams placed 9th to 24th enter the knockout phase play-offs to secure their spots in the Round of 16.
As of now, the specific matchups for the Round of 16 have not been finalized, as the knockout phase play-offs are yet to be completed. Therefore, reports suggesting that Manchester City will face Real Madrid in the Round of 16 are premature. The final pairings will be determined after the conclusion of the play-offs.
The knockout phase play-offs are scheduled for February 11/12 and February 18/19, 2025. Following these matches, the Round of 16 will take place on March 4/5 and March 11/12, 2025.
