Arsenal vs Barcelona, 2016 Champions League: Start time, TV listings, live stream

The wait is finally over. After two grueling months, Barcelona returns to action in the UEFA Champions League with a huge Round of 16 tie against Premier League contenders Arsenal, starting on Tuesday in North London.

After an easy group stage, the Blaugrana officially start their title defense looking to become the first team in the Champions League era to win back-to-back trophies. It is common sense that the road to that historic achievement will be the toughest imaginable, and what a better way to start than against one of England's most potent sides.

To make this match even better, the two have a rich past in the competition, having faced each other seven times since 1999, five of them in knockout phases. The most important and memorable of all is certainly the 2006 Final, won by the Blaugrana 2-1 in one of the most unforgettable comebacks in Champions League history.

Fast forward almost 10 years from that amazing night, and we see two great teams again. Arsenal are a powerhouse that have remained relevant and competitive for over two decades under Arsene Wenger, and have a real shot at winning the Premier League again. Barça are undoubtedly the best team in the world today, riding a 32-game unbeaten streak led by the sensational form of the 'MSN' trio.

The Gunners will be at home, and have already proven they can use the Emirates Stadium to create a hostile environment and prove the doubters wrong by stopping the unstoppable. Should be a great night of football. Do not miss it.
