Champions League last 16: Who could get who in Monday's draw?

Share

The draw for the last 16 of the Champions League takes place later on Monday. Here we look at how Europe's elite might be paired off.

Representatives of the remaining 16 teams in the Champions League will convene in Nyon for Monday's draw for the knockout stages.

Some of the continent's heavyweights had little difficulty booking their place, with Porto, Bayern Munich and Barcelona topping their respective groups unbeaten.

Juventus and holders Real Madrid also progressed as group winners, despite suffering shock defeats last week to Young Boys and CSKA Moscow, respectively.

Those who emerged as leaders in the round-robin phase will – theoretically at least – expect slightly kinder draws.

However, there are certainly a few jokers in the pack, with Atletico Madrid, Tottenham, Liverpool and Manchester United all going through as runners-up.

For most, the knockout phase is when the Champions League really starts to build the intrigue, but there are rules in place preventing clubs from facing other sides from the same nation or group in the last 16.

So, who could each team end up playing? We take a look at the draw scenarios.
