Champions League Round Of 16 Draw Is Lit, So When Will It Start?

The Champions League draw on Monday created some tantalizing matchups for the knockout rounds. Now the question is: When does Champions League Round of 16 start in 2020? 

For the first time ever, UEFA held a draw for the UCL Round of 16 only with clubs from the biggest five leagues on the continent, so we knew we were in for some big games from the start of the knockout rounds. The draw confirmed our expectations and then some.

Manchester City will take on Real Madrid, Chelsea faces Bayern Munich in a rematch of the 2012 final, PSG gets BVB and Liverpool drew Atlético Madrid among the Round of 16 matchups.
