This Valentines the love for football would take fans into more passionate and greater significance as UEFA Champions League returns with the best 16 teams locking horns against one another, the best in the continent.

Teams

• England: Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester City, Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool
• Spain: Barcelona, Real Madrid, Sevilla
• Italy: Juventus, AS Roma
• France: Paris Saint Germain
• Germany: Bayern Munich
• Turkey: Besiktas
• Switzerland: FC Basel
• Portugal: Porto FC
• Ukraine: Shakhtar Donetsk
•  

The match starts on 14 February where Juventus will lock horns with Tottenham, a perfect match to be watched between attacking force against defensive force.

Basel will take up against Manchester City where the later could operate on different level against the rival.

On 15 February, Liverpool will play their first Champions League Knockout after a gap of nine years and will put up against Portuguese giants FC Porto.

The biggest tie of the round of 16 stage is the Real Madrid vs Paris Saint Germain. It’s unfortunate for the fans that they will be up against each other so early in the tournament as they could have very well contested the final.
