🎲 ROUND OF 16 DRAW: HOW IT WORKS
The pairings are based on the placement in the large initial phase: four pairs of seeds have been defined (1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8), then placed on the board against the playoff winners already determined by the previous draw.
For the draw, four pots are prepared, one for each pair. It starts with the teams ranked 7-8 and goes up to 1-2: the first ball drawn is placed on one side of the board, the other on the opposite side. The same procedure is followed for all pairs.
😱 POSSIBLE SENSATIONAL MATCHUPS IN THE ROUND OF 16
Speaking of Atalanta, the round of 16 draw can offer high-profile matchups: Liverpool against either Galatasaray or Atletico Madrid, Manchester City facing Real Madrid or Bodo/Glimt, and PSG against Barcelona or Chelsea. Additionally, between Arsenal and Bayern Munich, the team that does not face the Goddess will meet Bayer Leverkusen.
