Two more first legs of UEFA Champions League Round of 16 matches will be played later on today in Europe. The first of two matches will be Valencia travelling to Italy to go up against Atalanta. Both teams advanced due to fortunate placement during the Group Stage.
The second match is the marquee match-up with Red Bull Leipzig going to England to face off against Tottenham Hotspur. Tottenham will look to advance to the final again like last season, while Red Bull Leipzig will be making its first appearance in the knockout round of 16. Tottenham will be short-handed as strikers Heung-Min Son and Harry Kane are injured.
Both games will start at 3 PM EST.

I hope you enjoyed the games!
I actually did enjoy watching these games
perhaps Red Bull will get wings!
i did catch a little streamed, will watch a little today streaming changes everything for watching soccer!
Yes, Red Bull is like a super team – it started from scratch about 10 years ago
sports has moved to that super team concept. oh well. i miss the days of one great player!
I think today you should win both Atalanta and Tottenham
I like Atalanta too – Ilicic is a good player. I will see if Tottenham can overcome all of their injuries
Ilicic has just scored his first Champions League goal
Yes, he did. It was a very good goal. I’m sort of surprised that Atalanta scored four goals on Valencia, but Valencia’s best defender did not play due to injury
I was also surprised by Atalanta’s high victory …. but I was surprised by Tottenheim’s defeat
Tottenham should win today and I think Valencia will be defeated tonight.
I think Valencia will lose too. Their new owner is weird – he fired the coach after they won the Copa del Rey last season. I’m going with Red Bull Leipzig. They are for real this season. They are only one point behind Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga
Yes, Valencia won the Copa del Rey but the coach got fired. This was very strange. I did not know Leipzig was so good but I believe in Mourinho. Go Spurs!!!! Atlético defeated Liverpool yesterday.
Yes, Atletico surprised everyone again. Simeone is one of the best coaches now. I didn’t know this, but after Atletico won, the announcer on TV said that Simeone has never lost a home Champions League match. Valencia’s owner is more concerned about staying in the top 4 in La Liga
Yes, it is very difficult to beat Atlético although Atlético does not win so often too.
