Which Champions League last-16 games have been moved?

The three Champions League ties involving English clubs  have been affected by Covid-19-related public health restrictions in Spain and Germany related to travellers from the UK.

Liverpool's away game against RB Leipzig on February 16 has been moved to the Puskas Arena in Hungary, as has Manchester City's away match against Borussia Monchengladbach on February 24.

Chelsea's away game against Atletico Madrid on February 23 will not take place in Spain either, with that fixture being moved to the Arena Nationala in Romania.

It is not just the Champions League that has been affected by the situation, with the venues of Europa League games involving Manchester United and Arsenal also changed.

The Red Devils will play Real Sociedad in Allianz Stadium in Turin on February 18, while Arsenal's game against Benfica, scheduled to be played on the same day, has been moved to Stadio Olimpico in Rome.
