After yesterday’s mesmerizing Cristiano Ronaldo show which saw Real Madrid obliterate Juventus, we are pumped up for another magical night in the UEFA Champions League.

As you would be aware by now, some of Europe’s big clubs have been slugging it out as the 2018 Champions League enters its final stretch.

Tonight, Liverpool welcome Manchester City to Anfield looking to reach the Champions League semi-finals for the first time in a decade.

The Reds are the only team to beat City in the Premier League this season, a remarkable 4-3 victory in January, but will be aware of the need to build a firm first-leg advantage on home soil.

Both teams strolled into the quarter-finals, scoring a combined 10 goals against Porto and Basel in last-16 ties, but now face their toughest tests in Europe this season.
Elsewhere, Barcelona are aiming to reach the Champions League semi-finals for first time since winning the competition in 2015 as they face Roma over two quarter-final legs.
Chelsea were dispatched with ease at Camp Nou last time out as Lionel Messi scored his 100th goal in the competition, while Roma edged out Shakhtar Donetsk.

The last time these two teams met Barca ran out 6-1 winners, with an Italian team not winning at Camp Nou since Juventus at this stage 15 years ago.

We will know which teams will get the upper hand at the end of the 90 minutes. So follow all our updates here.

All games start at 6:45pm GMT.
