Following the customary portion of Champions League drama last week, the return legs promise plenty of thrills and spills again this week.
Liverpool’s gutsy win on the road at PSG has been the principal talking point, with all to play for at Anfield this week, as it is for Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid in the Spanish capital.
Arsenal’s 7-1 thumping of PSV last week was perhaps the standout result, with the Gunners looking to press on with their maiden Champions League quest.
Eight sides will be crashing out this week and the stakes are high in the 2024/25 UEFA Champions League, and you can join the action with the best Australian betting sites!

Champions League Last 16 2nd Leg Predictions
—
Barcelona vs Benfica – Barcelona lead 1-0 on aggregate
Barcelona ($1.37)
Benfica ($8.50)
Draw ($6.00)
Following a fiery encounter in Lisbon last week, Barcelona and Benfica look ready to battle it out again here at the Nou Camp. Benfica showed that they have the players to hurt Barca but at home, the Catalan giants should progress relatively comfortably.
Betting tip: Barcelona to win the match ($1.37)
Barcelona to win 3-1
Bayer Leverkusen vs Bayern Munich – Bayern Munich lead 3-0 on aggregate
Bayer Leverkusen ($2.80)
Bayern Munich ($2.55)
Draw ($3.75)
The all-German tie fell heavily in the favour of Bayern Munich last weekend and it feels as if they have one foot in the quarter finals here, as they travel north to take on Bayer Leverkusen. This is a tough one to call, with the tie seemingly over and both sides may settle for a draw.
Betting tip: The match to finish as a draw ($3.75)
1-1 Draw
Inter Milan vs Feyenoord – Inter Milan lead 2-0 on aggregate
Inter Milan ($1.38)
Feyenoord ($10.00)
Draw ($5.50)
Following their dominant showing in Rotterdam last week, Inter Milan will be looking to finish the job here against Feyenoord. The Dutch side have a mountain to climb here and will have a good go but Inter at the San Siro should be enough to see them over the line.
Betting tip: Inter Milan to win the match ($1.38)
Inter Milan to win 2-1
Liverpool vs PSG – Liverpool lead 1-0 on aggregate
Liverpool ($2.30)
PSG ($3.00)
Draw ($4.00)
A remarkable game between these two was played out last week, with Liverpool fortunate in the eyes of many to prevail and PSG will be out for revenge here. Anfield will be a leveller, with the reds backed to the hilt and while PSG will threaten, nothing looks capable of stopping Liverpool currently.
Betting tip: Liverpool to win the match ($2.30)
Liverpool to win 2-1
Lille vs Borussia Dortmund – 1-1 on aggregate
Lille ($2.70)
Borussia Dortmund ($2.75)
Draw ($3.50)
Lille and Borussia Dortmund meet here, in what should be a compelling encounter in France. There was very little to split the sides in Germany and a repeat dosage could be on the cards here. This will be tight, with Lille perhaps getting over the line in front of their home fans.
Betting tip: Lille to win the match ($2.70)
Lille to win 2-1
Arsenal vs PSV – Arsenal lead 7-1 on aggregate
Arsenal ($1.43)
PSV ($8.50)
Draw ($5.00)
This one is all over but Arsenal and PSV will face off once again in North London, with the Gunners ready to book their place in the next round. A 7-1 hiding in Eindhoven has done the damage and Arsenal can take their foot off the gas here, making a draw a reasonable prediction.
Betting tip: The match to finish as a draw ($5.00)
2-2 Draw
Aston Villa vs Club Brugge – Aston Villa lead 3-1 on aggregate.
Aston Villa ($1.65)
Club Brugge ($6.00)
Draw ($4.60)
Two late goals in Belgium gave Aston Villa a healthy advantage in this one and they will be looking to press it home at Villa Park. Club Brugge are a very good side, with some talented players but Villa are strong at home and should march on in the Champions League here.
Betting tip: Aston Villa to win the match ($1.65)
Aston Villa to win 2-1
Atletico Madrid vs Real Madrid – Real Madrid lead 2-1 on aggregate
Atletico Madrid ($2.60)
Real Madrid ($2.70)
Draw ($3.75)
The two Spanish giants lock horns again in Madrid, with Real holding a slender first leg lead over Atletico. Both sides will fancy their chances but Real have an all-important 1st leg advantage and they should be pragmatic enough to get it over the line here.
Betting tip: The match to finish as a draw ($3.75)
1-1 Draw
