Which teams can RB Leipzig meet in the round of 16 of the Champions League?
Although RB Leipzig lost the first two group games of the Champions League, the Red Bulls ultimately qualified for the round of 16 in a very comfortable manner.
After two defeats at the start against Shakhtar Donetsk and Real Madrid, RB Leipzig’s hopes of progressing in the premier class had already dwindled noticeably. But with four wins in a row, Marco Rose’s team was able to work their way up to second place and make it into the knockout stage for the third time. There is a feasible opponent waiting there with a bit of luck.
RB Leipzig could meet these teams in the round of 16:
- man city
- Chelsea FC
- SSC Naples
- Tottenham
- FC Porto
- Benfica
From the Red Bulls’ point of view, encounters with Man City, Chelsea and Napoli should certainly be avoided – at least in a duel with Tottenham they would be anything but without a chance. And against the Portuguese representatives FC Porto or Benfica, RBL would even be the favorite.
