Tottenham, Liverpool, Manchester City, and Chelsea have all advanced to the round of 16 in the Champions League, and they are all eagerly anticipating Monday’s draw.
Tottenham overcame Marseille 2-1 on Tuesday night at the Stade Velodrome in France to secure a clean sweep for English clubs in the Champions League.
The Premier League will be represented by Spurs, Manchester City, Chelsea, and Liverpool in the tournament’s knockout round when it starts in the new year after the World Cup is over. On Wednesday, there are just eight games left.

As a result, it is becoming more evident which groups the four English clubs may play in the round of 16. Tottenham was expected to place second in Group D, which may have given them a difficult matchup, but a late goal from Pierre Emile Hojbjerg ensured they took first place.
Tottenham might be paired with either the Belgian team Club Brugge or the Italian powerhouse Inter Milan because clubs from the same nation cannot face each other until the quarterfinal round and cannot play their opponents from the group stage again in the last 16.
The games on Wednesday will determine which other teams advance, so Antonio Conte’s team will also be watching them. AC Milan, Red Bull Salzburg, RB Leipzig, Shakhtar Donetsk, Borussia Dortmund, Benfica, and Paris Saint-Germain are a few potential rivals.
Liverpool, on the other hand, came in second place in their group and will now face the group’s top seed. They might be matched up with Porto, Benfica, Bayern Munich, Real Madrid, RB Leipzig, or PSG. That might result in a rematch of the final against Real from the previous year.
Tottenham has advanced to the Champions League’s round of 16
Both Chelsea and City have already won their respective groups despite still having one game to play. Similar to Tottenham, both teams are in the round of 16, with Chelsea playing either Brugge, Inter, Eintracht Frankfurt, Leipzig, Shakhtar, Dortmund, Benfica, or PSG.
Brugge, Inter, Frankfurt, Milan, Leipzig, Shakhtar, Benfica, and PSG are possible rivals for City. The draw for the next round will take place in Switzerland on Monday, so the four Premier League clubs won’t have to wait long to learn their fate.
The last 16 matches will once again take place in February and March. The last four matches will take place in May, with the quarterfinals scheduled for April. Due of the World Cup, this season’s final will take place in Istanbul on June 10 at a little later time than normal.
Aware followers of European football will also be aware that West Ham advanced to the round of 16 of the Europa Conference League after winning their group, while Arsenal and Manchester United have reached the knockout stages of the Europa League.
Arsenal and Man Utd will advance to the Europa League’s round of 16 if they defeat FC Zurich and Real Sociedad, respectively, in their final group matches, on Thursday. If they don’t, they can find themselves in the play-off round’s round of the last 32.
They may therefore play a Champions League team that has been eliminated. Ajax, Bayer Leverkusen, Barcelona, Sporting Lisbon, Milan, Salzburg, Leipzig, Shakhtar, Sevilla, Juventus, and Maccabi Haifa are a few potential rivals. The future of West Ham cannot yet be predicted.
