The Champions League playoff draw has set up a blockbuster rematch between Benfica and Real Madrid, just days after José Mourinho's side stunned the Spanish giants with a 4-2 victory in Lisbon. That win was sealed by goalkeeper Anatoliy Trubin's dramatic injury-time goal, and Benfica will host the first leg of their two-legged tie with Real Madrid.
Newcastle United face a daunting 3,000-mile journey to Azerbaijan for their first leg against Qarabag. Eddie Howe's team will take confidence from an impressive 1-1 draw with Paris Saint-Germain at the Parc des Princes, but Qarabag have shown their resilience by holding Chelsea to a 2-2 draw at home in November.
The draw also pits PSG against Monaco, with the Ligue 1 leaders facing a side that beat them 1-0 in November. Bodø/Glimt, who have already beaten Manchester City and Atlético Madrid, will host Inter in the Arctic Circle. Galatasaray take on Juventus, Club Brugge meet Atlético, Borussia Dortmund play Atalanta, and Olympiakos face Bayer Leverkusen. First legs are scheduled for 17/18 February, with returns on 24/25 February.
For clubs already through to the last 16, potential opponents are now clearer. Arsenal will face the winner of Olympiakos v Leverkusen or Borussia Dortmund v Atalanta. Manchester City could meet Real Madrid, Benfica, Inter, or Bodø/Glimt. Liverpool will play the winner of Galatasaray v Juventus or Club Brugge v Atlético, while Chelsea could face PSG, Monaco, Newcastle, or Qarabag.
In the Europa League playoffs, Nottingham Forest travel to Fenerbahce, while Celtic host Stuttgart. Both ties take place on 19/26 February, with Forest potentially facing Real Betis or Midtjylland and Celtic meeting Braga or Porto if they progress.
