Champions League R16 Draw: Teams are Equally Matched

Arsenal have been drawn against Bayern Munich in the Champions League's round of 16, while Barcelona will take on Paris Saint-Germain.

Defending champions Real Madrid have been drawn against Napoli and Manchester City, who reached the semifinals last season, have been drawn against Ligue 1 side Monaco.

Arsenal, who won their group this season for the first time since the 2011-12 campaign, will be aiming to reach the quarterfinals of the competition for the first time since 2009-10.

The Gunners meet Bayern again after facing them in the group stage last year and being dumped out of the round-of-16 stage by the Germans in 2012-13 and 2013-14.

PSG won their first meeting against Barca in the quarterfinals of the 1994-95 competition, but the Catalan club won the quarterfinal meetings in 2012-13 and 2014-15.

The two clubs also met in the group stage in 2014, when PSG won at the Parc des Princes and Barca won at the Camp Nou.

Real Madrid face Napoli as they bid to become the first team to win the competition in successive seasons. Zinedine Zidane's side currently sit six points clear at the top of the La Liga table and are on a club record unbeaten run of 35 games.

Atletico Madrid, last season's runners-up, take on German side Bayer Leverkusen, while Juventus will play Porto.

Premier League champions Leicester City will take on Europa League holders Sevilla after winning their group and Portuguese giants Benfica play Borussia Dortmund.

ROUND OF 16 DRAW:

The first legs will take place on Feb. 14, 15, 21 and 22 and the second legs will take place on March 7, 8, 14 and 15.

Champions League and Europa League draw: This is who English teams could face

The Gunners could face Bayern Munich or Real Madrid despite beating the odds to finish first in their group.

Usually, topping your group is the best way to avoid facing a nightmare draw because you cannot face another group winner in the last 16.

But holders Real and German champions Bayern both finished second, meaning they could play Arsene Wenger’s men.

Arsenal could also be drawn against Europa League winners Sevilla – but a kinder draw would pit them against Porto, Benfica or Bayer Leverkusen.

The one big plus for Arsenal is that as group winners they are seeded and will play the second leg of their tie at home, which is usually an advantage.

Manchester City will avoid the likes of Real, Bayern and Barcelona but could still face tough opposition.

Last year’s runners-up Atletico Madrid and Italian giants Juventus are both potential opponents, along with Napoli, Monaco and Borussia Dortmund.

And it doesn’t get any easier for Leicester either despite them topping their group.

Claudio Ranieri’s men could face Real, Bayern, Sevilla, Paris St-Germain, Benfica or Bayer Leverkusen.
No team can be drawn against an opponent from their own country, or an opponent from the group stage.
All three teams will learn their fate from 11am on Monday when the draw begins in Nyon, Switzerland.
The first legs will take place on February 14/15 and 21/22, with the return legs on March 7/8 and 14/15.

Who will Manchester United and Tottenham draw in the Europa League?

Manchester United and Spurs will also learn their opponents in the last 32 of the Europa League.
Spurs are seeded having dropped out of the Champions League and will play the first leg on February 16 away. They could face the likes of Borussia Monchengladbach or Villarreal.
United are unseeded and could be drawn against the likes of Ajax, Roma, Schalke or Besiktas. The second legs will be played on February 23, which is just before United’s possible EFL Cup Final date should they beat Hull in the semis.
