The first fixture of the UEFA Champions League is set to take place between Paris Saint-Germain and Atalanta on Wednesday at Estádio Sport Lisboa e Benfica in Lisbon, Portugal.
All the remaining fixtures of the Champions League will be played via a straight knockout at a single location due to the coronavirus pandemic that forced a five-month hiatus on all sporting events across the world.
Ligue 1 winners PSG are favourites to advance to the semi-finals with the likes of Neymar and Kylian Mbappe featuring in the squad. The Serie A side Atalanta, meanwhile, had a slow start in the group stages having lost three of their matches.
