Chelsea have been handed a tricky and tough Champions League last-16 tie against Atletico Madrid, while Liverpool play last season’s semi-finalists RB Leipzig in a place for the quarter-finals of the competition.
Atletico, who knocked out Liverpool in last season’s round of 16, had to wait until the last round of fixtures to qualify from the group stage but have been impressive in LaLiga with only one defeat in 11 matches.
Manchester City will face Borussia Monchengladbach, who are in the last 16 for the first time since 1978.
Holders Bayern Munich face Italian side Lazio, who are in the knockout stage for the first time in 20 years.
Barcelona face Paris St-Germain in arguably the tie of the round, a repeat of their 2017 classic.
