The Champions League last 16 stage awaits with the competition\u2019s remaining sides set to their learn fate today.<\/p>\n

In play-off matches this week, Newcastle cruised past Qarabag to join five other Premier League clubs: Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester City and Tottenham.<\/p>\n

Also safely through to the last 16 without requiring a play-off are Bayern Munich, Sporting and Barcelona.<\/p>\n

Atletico Madrid came through the play-offs on Tuesday evening, as did Bayer Leverkusen and, shockingly, Bodo\/Glimt.<\/p>\n

The Norwegian side have ousted Italian giants Inter over two legs, remarkably keeping their Champions League dreams alive.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday evening, Atalanta, Galatasaray, PSG and Real Madrid joined the party in some tight ties and dramatic contests.<\/p>\n
