Benfica confirm their place in the knockout play-off round of the Champions League with a comfortable win over Juventus in Turin.

FC Barcelona will close out the league stage of the UEFA Champions League when they host Atalanta on Wednesday.

Barcelona have been handed a major boost with midfielder Pedri returning for the Champions League clash against Atalanta.

The UEFA Champions League's first-ever league phase is over, and the knockout stage outlook is now much clearer. Manchester City avoided disaster, Liverpool topped the league-phase table, and we will get Manchester City against either Real Madrid or Bayern Munich in the playoffs.

Barcelona midfielder Pedri is reportedly back in training after missing their 7-1 win over Valencia in LaLiga on January 26. The 22-year-old missed the game due to gastrointestinal issues.

FC Barcelona Projected Lineup (4-2-3-1): Iñaki Peña (GK) – Jules Koundé, Ronald Araujo, Pau Cubarsí, Gerard Martin – Frenkie de Jong, Pedri – Lamine Yamal, Gavi, Raphinha – Robert Lewandowski.
