How to watch Chelsea vs Borussia Dortmund on TV
Chelsea and Borussia Dortmund met for the first time ever in competitive action in the first leg, with Todd Boehly’s Blues being beaten 1-0 thanks to Karim Adeyemi’s strike.
Graham Potter steered Chelsea to a slender 1-0 victory over struggling Leeds on Saturday but needs a another favourable result here to get some fans back on side.
However, Dortmund are in terrific form, charging back into the Bundesliga title race, and will expect to reach the quarter finals.
USMNT star Christian Pulisic will hope for some minutes against his former side but is battling an injury. Gio Reyna hasn’t played for BVB since early February.

How to watch Benfica vs Club Brugge on TV
One-time USMNT international Owen Otasowie has struggled to make much of an impact at Club Brugge since leaving Wolves in 2021 and is unlikely to play against Benfica here.
Brugge face a tough task to turn the tie around, going down 2-0 losers at home thanks to Joao Mario’s penalty and David Neres’ 88th-minute strike.

How to watch Bayern Munich vs Paris Saint-Germain on TV
Two giants of modern football collide again on Wednesday when German champions Bayern Munich host French equivalents Paris Saint-Germain.
World Cup stars Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe are hoping to turn around a 1-0 deficit from the first leg, where Kingsley Coman’s strike against his former club settled the match.
Bayern have the edge on PSG in their last six meetings, winning five of them, but with both sides offering quality in abundance, it’s tough to back a clear winner.

How to watch Tottenham vs AC Milan on TV
Tottenham haven’t reached the quarter finals of the Champions League since 2019, when they were defeated finalists to winners Liverpool.
Making that stage will be tough for Spurs, who have lost four of their last six games. Opponents Milan had won four matches in a row before being beaten by Fiorentina, making this one of the nervier ties in the round.
With the two sides out of form, this clash could go down to the wire.
