Elsewhere, Manchester City drew Real Madrid while a tie against Norwegian minnows Bodo/Glimt was their other possibility.

For the other English sides, Arsenal landed Bayer Leverkusen, Liverpool will play Galatasaray and Tottenham were drawn against Atletico Madrid.

All six Premier League teams advanced through the league phase to make up more than a third of the sides left in the competition.

Newcastle were the only English club forced to go through the play-offs after Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City and Tottenham all finished inside the top eight and progressed straight to the round of 16.
