For fans in India eagerly anticipating the UEFA Champions League Round of 16 clash between RB Leipzig and Real Madrid, there are multiple options to catch the action. Whether it’s through television broadcasts or streaming platforms on smartphones, supporters have convenient access to witness this thrilling encounter.
Taking place at the Red Bull Arena in Leipzig, Germany, on Wednesday, February 14 (as per Indian Standard Time), this match marks Real Madrid’s visit as the away team. With Real Madrid securing a flawless record in Group C with 6 wins out of 6 matches and Leipzig finishing second in Group G behind Manchester City, expectations are high for an intense showdown.
However, Real Madrid faces some challenges as key players such as Thibaut Courtois, Eder Militao, and David Alaba are sidelined due to ACL injuries, while Antonio Rudiger is nursing a thigh injury. Despite these setbacks, Nacho Fernadez’s return from a muscle injury bolsters their squad.
On the Leipzig side, Benjamin Henrichs and Mohamed Simakan are walking a disciplinary tightrope, with one more booking potentially ruling them out of the second-leg fixture. Additionally, Amadou Haidara’s absence in the team’s recent Bundesliga match against Augsburg raises concerns for manager Marco Rose, though most other star players are expected to be available for selection.
