Champions League Matchday 1/21 Storylines

The three biggest Champions League matches kicking off on Tuesday, Jan. 21, are Atlético Madrid vs. Bayer Leverkusen, Benfica vs. Barcelona and Liverpool vs. Lille. Both Spanish sides dropped points in La Liga at the weekend and will look to bounce back against their European opponents. Diego Simeone's men have the toughest task of the day against Bayer Leverkusen, a side that is currently on a 12-game winning streak.

The Reds, meanwhile, will hope to remain perfect in the Champions League. Liverpool sit atop the Champions League standings with 18 out of 18 possible points from their last six UCL matches under Arne Slot. On paper, Liverpool should comfortably defeat Lille, but the Ligue 1 side already managed a huge upset against Real Madrid back in October.
