The first round of the Champions League round of 16 is coming to a close tonight with the final two matches of the first series of matches between Europe’s top football clubs.

Didier Deschamps will be hoping to capitalize on Inter's weak form and get Marseille in the quarterfinals

Basel will be hosting Bayern Munich tonight at the St Jakob Park in Basel with the Swiss champs hoping to shock another one of the Europe’s top teams. A lot of people were shocked at Basel’s 2-1 over Man United in the last game of the group stage but since then Basel has tied all 5 games they have taken part in and will desperately need a win against the Bavarians who are tough to beat on home soil.

Inter Milan meanwhile will be traveling to the Stade Velodrome in Marseille for an interesting clash against Olympique Marseille. Inter have struggled mightily as of late losing 5 and drawing 1 of their last 6 matches. They’ve seen their goal lit up on multiplle occasions and will hope for a draw against a side that hasn’t lost since November of last year.

As the back stories show, Bayern Munich and Inter Milan might be the bigger names, but a win is not guaranteed at this stage of the competition, and certainly not against two up and coming teams in Basel and Marseille who themselves are hoping for Champions League glory.
