The UEFA Champions League Knockout Phase gets underway on February 11-12, 2025, with some thrilling encounters lined up—headlined by a heavyweight showdown between Manchester City and Real Madrid.
For the best football action all season long, DStv has got you covered!
City vs. Madrid: A Champions League Classic
The Citizens and Los Blancos will battle it out at the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday night, a fixture that many would have expected to see at a later stage in the competition. Having failed to secure a top-eight finish in the League Phase, the two European giants now face an early knockout round, meaning one of the past two Champions League winners will bow out.
Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti acknowledged the tough challenge ahead but remained confident:
“We don’t like playing against City, but if we have to, we will—as we’ve done in the past.”
This marks the fourth consecutive season the two sides have met in the knockout stages, with Madrid holding a 2-1 advantage in their previous meetings.
City boss Pep Guardiola also highlighted the magnitude of the matchup:
“It feels like a derby now—four years in a row against Madrid. It’s always a tough battle, but hopefully, we can perform at our best in both legs.”
Celtic to Host Bayern in a Wednesday Thriller
Had City’s draw been different, they could have faced Bayern Munich, who will instead travel to Scotland for a highly anticipated clash against Celtic at Celtic Park on Wednesday night.
Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers is relishing the challenge:
“We’ve earned our place at this stage. The team has progressed throughout the competition, and now we get to test ourselves against one of Europe’s best.”
Rodgers, who faced Bayern during his first spell with Celtic in 2017, believes his team has improved significantly and is ready to put up a strong fight.
Other Key Fixtures in the Knockout Round
Several other exciting matchups will take place across Europe, including:
- An all-French showdown between Brest and Paris Saint-Germain
- Juventus facing Dutch champions PSV Eindhoven
- Sporting CP taking on last season’s finalists, Borussia Dortmund
- AC Milan going up against Feyenoord
- Atalanta looking to outclass Club Brugge
- Benfica hoping to eliminate Monaco
