The draw for the Europa League last-32 will be made on Monday – but who could we face?
At this stage of the competition, the eight third-placed Champions League group stage teams enter the competition, and are joined by the 24 teams who qualified through the Europa League group stage. All Europa League group winners have been seeded, along with the four Champions League sides who accumulated the most points in the group stage.
We will be drawn against one of the four Champions League sides with the fewest group-stage points total, or a Europa League group runner-up, with the exception of the runner-up in Group H.
As a result of being seeded, we will play at home in the second leg of our last-32 fixture.
Please note, no team can play a club from their UEFA Europa League group or a side from the same national association.
Games will be played in principle on Thursday, February 15, 2018 and Thursday, February 22, 2018, with the exact schedule released after the draw.
