Teams await Champions League fate

Post by IRiSHMaFIA »

Britain's five teams in the Champions League will find out their opponents for the knockout stages of the competition in Friday's draw.

England's four representatives - Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and Manchester United - all finished top of their groups and are in the first pot.

Celtic are in the second pot and could draw Arsenal, Chelsea or Liverpool.

The Scottish league leaders are in a pot along with holders Barcelona for the draw that will be made at 1100 GMT.

Teams cannot draw rivals from their group so Arsenal will not be paired with Porto, Chelsea will avoid Barcelona, Liverpool and PSV Eindhoven will be kept apart and Manchester United and Celtic cannot meet again.

And clubs from the same country cannot be drawn against each other in the second round.

Matches in the last 16 will be played on 20/21 February and 6/7 March and the first-legs will be played at the home of the group runners-up.

TEAMS IN THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE DRAW

Group winners (Pot 1): AC Milan, Arsenal, Bayern Munich, Chelsea, Liverpool, Lyon, Manchester United & Valencia.

Group runners-up (Pot 2): Barcelona, Celtic, Inter Milan, Lille, Porto, PSV Eindhoven, Real Madrid & Roma.

Arsenal can meet: Barcelona, Celtic, Inter Milan, Lille, PSV Eindhoven, Real Madrid or Roma.

Celtic can meet: AC Milan, Arsenal, Bayern Munich, Chelsea, Liverpool, Lyon or Valencia.

Chelsea can meet: Celtic, Inter Milan, Lille, Porto, PSV Eindhoven, Real Madrid or Roma.

Liverpool can meet: Barcelona, Celtic, Inter Milan, Lille, Porto, Real Madrid or Roma.

Manchester United can meet: Barcelona, Inter Milan, Lille, Porto, PSV Eindhoven, Real Madrid or Roma.
