Gent vs Wolfsburg live stream: Watch Champions League online
By Josh Sippie
Gent welcome Wolfsburg to their Belgian home with both sides hoping for a Champions League quarter-finals berth. Here is where to watch the action unfold.
Neither of the two sides matching up in Belgium figured to make too much of a splash in the Champions League this year, but both received favorable group draws. The home side, Gent, was drawn with Zenit St. Petersburg, Lyon and Valencia, the former of the three having won the group.
It left Gent with a prime opportunity to sneak in in second place, which the Belgians duly accomplished. They currently sit second in the Belgian Pro League on goal differential alone.

On the opposite side of things, Wolfsburg is nowhere near where they were last year. The German outfit fought out an impressive second place in the Bundesliga last year. This year, they’ll be lucky to be playing European football at all , let alone the ChampionsLeague. They currently sit eighth in the Bundesliga table with very little cause for optimism. They have only won two of their last nine in all competitions.
While Julian Draxler is doing his best to help the Wolves forget about Kevin De Bruyne and Andre Schurrle is helping out as well, the club just cannot seem to replicate the success they found last year. Although that did not hinder them in the group states, as Wolfsburg was responsible for knocking out Manchester United in order to secure their own berth in the knockout stages.
These two sides are both hungry to defy the odds as they duel it out in the Champions League Round of 16.
