The UEFA Champions League is undoubtedly the pinnacle of European football and exactly where the very best players in the sport want to be playing and winning games.
This is undoubtedly clear for all to see, as we take a quick look through some of the mouth-watering ties on offer this week.
We are now near the conclusion of the group stage, with teams having just one fixture left to try and qualify if they haven't already.
The biggest match of the week sees Bayern Munich host Barcelona at the Allianz Arena.
Bayern have already qualified as they have a 100% record, but Barca need a positive result in Germany or risk being usurped to second spot by Benfica, who face Dynamo Kyiv in the other fixture.
On paper, Real Madrid versus Inter is a mouthwatering tie but both have already qualified so Carlo Ancelotti and Simone Inzaghi may choose to rotate their starting XIs.

In Group B, Liverpool have already qualified as group winners but any one of Milan, Porto and Atletico can still claim second spot. This week, Porto face Atletico and Milan face Liverpool.
