Real Madrid vs Ajax (UEFA Champions League, Round of 16):
Leg 1 - 13/14 February
Leg 2 - 05/06 February
Real Madrid will find themselves in the competition they favour when they take on Dutch side Ajax. Even though Real Madrid have been the team to beat in the last few seasons of the competition, a youth centric club like Ajax is always tricky to handle in a knockout situation with talented youngsters like De Ligt, Tagliafico and David Neres waiting to seize the opportunity against the best players in business.
The Dutch side has been in good form lately and would take the challenge to Madrid. The 13-time champions will have to be in their best form and conditioning amidst other tough fixtures in La Liga and Copa del Rey to come out on top.
