Summary: With the group stage complete and the draw delivered for the Round of 16 for the Champions League, international broadcaster and commentator Tim Caple joins the show to give us a look at the favorites, factors and top level analysis of a rather straight forward knockout round with very few of the match-ups having much suspense. We also examine a few of the Europa League ties where there is history and some fascinating draws in the Round of 32, with particular attention spent on clubs with a track record in that competition and some evenly split contenders. With Real Madrid and Bayern Munich cast as the class of the competition, the Champions League might be short on drama, but there are factors to be considered for PSG and Chelsea, as well as whether Luis Enrique can get Barcelona on top form come the time that the competition resumes. Dortmund and Juventus arrive on the scene with their own sense of history in tact from 1997, but questions will be raised yet again for the loser of this two-legged decider. Also in focus is the verdict hanging over both Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Laurent Blanc for a PSG brimming with skill and class if not determination, a Chelsea side that is primed for dark horse status with a favorable draw and a Monaco squad short on chances yet strong in defence which will present its own set of challenges for the likes of Arsenal and a Porto side which will test giant killers Basel who once again reach a critical stage.
