Arsenal will once again take on Bayern Munich while Barcelona have been drawn against Paris Saint-Germain for the quarter-final clash of the Champions League.
The Arsene Wenger-led side hoped that topping the Group A for the first time in five years would spare them a tie against Bayern in the first knockout round, but they have to face Carlo Ancelotti's German champions this time as well.
Bayern had knocked out Arsenal en route to clinching the trophy in 2012-13 before repeating the feat a year later. The two teams also met in the group stage last season,Sport24 reported.
Meanwhile, reigning European champions Real Madrid will face a testing two-legged encounter with Napoli, while Premier League champions Leicester City are drawn against last season's Europa League winners Sevilla.
Pep Guardiola's Manchester City will lock horns with Monaco, with Atletico Madrid taking on Bayer Leverkusen.
Juventus and Borussia Dortmund will meet FC Porto and Benfica, respectively in the Champions League last-16 clash.
The first leg is slated to be played on February 14.
