The draw for the last 16 of the Champions League has been made in Nyon.
For the first time in the competition’s history, five representatives from the same nation will compete in the knock-out stages with all of the Premier League sides having progressed.
Chelsea were the only one of the quintet to have failed to win their respective group, with Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United and Tottenham all progressing as top seeds.
Juventus | vs | Tottenham | 13 February, 7 March |
FC Basel | vs | Manchester City | 13 February, 7 March |
FC Porto | vs | Liverpool | 14 February, 6 March |
Sevilla | vs | Manchester United | 21 February, 13 March |
Real Madrid | vs | Paris Saint-Germain | 14 February, 6 March |
Shakhtar Donetsk | vs | AS Roma | 21 February, 13 March |
Chelsea | vs | Barcelona | 20 February, 14 March |
Bayern Munich | vs | Besiktas | 20 February, 14 March |
"Five English teams made it through to this stage for the first time in the competition’s history and Antonio Conte’s side could only face Barcelona, Paris Saint Germain or Besiktas as a result of finishing runners-up behind Roma.
"The Blues were not alone in receiving a tough assignment, however, as Tottenham will play last season’s finalists Juventus despite topping a group containing Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund.
"The most mouth-watering tie sees Real Madrid meet PSG while Manchester United play Sevilla, Liverpool meet Porto and Manchester City were drawn against FC Basel."
