A blockbuster clash sees two European giants in Real Madrid and Juventus go head to head this evening.

Igor Tudor's men go into the game on the back of a thrashing at the hands of now-eliminated Manchester City, having lost 5-2 in their final group fixture last week.

The Serie A giants will be determined to put things right, but standing in their way is Xabi Alonso's Real Madrid.

Elsewhere, Bundesliga outfit Borussia Dortmund are set to face Mexican side Monterrey in their last 16 clash.


Player to watch 🔍

Gonzalo García may be linked with a move away from the Bernabéu this summer, but the 21-year-old academy product is certainly showing his worth to Alonso at this tournament.

The centre forward scored twice in their three group stage matches, including an equaliser against Saudi Arabian side Al-Hilal in their opening game.

Whether from the start or off the bench, García will hope to make an impact as Real Madrid target a place in the quarter-finals.


Must-watch video 🎥

After Monday night's shock exit for Manchester City, Al-Hilal's celebrations were in full swing in the dressing room as they progressed with a 4-3 win in extra-time.
