The Spanish champions will face Manuel Pellegrini's free-scoring side after being drawn first out of the pot in Monday's proceedings in Nyon.

Jose Mourinho face another reunion with former striker Didier Drogba after his Chelsea side were drawn against Galatasaray, who edged out Juventus on matchday six of the group phase.

Meanwhile, Manchester United will face Greek champions Olympiakos, while Paris Saint-Germain take on Bundesliga high-flyers Bayer Leverkusen.

AC Milan's reward for edging into the last 16 behind Barcelona is the chance to take on another Spanish side - Diego Simeone's Atletico Madrid.

Finally, Borussia Dortmund - beaten finalists last season - face Russian giants Zenit St Petersburg.

The sides who finished as group runners-up will host the first leg encounters on the February 18/19 and 25/26, while the second legs take place on March 11/12 and 18/19.
