Updated | By Trevor Cramer
Arsenal face the daunting prospect of having to brush aside German giants Bayern Munich to progress to the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League.
English Premier League title contenders Arsenal will have to see off 2012/13 champions Bayern Munich if they are to continue their progress in the UEFA Champions League.
The Gunners will face the same opponents that ousted them over two legs from Europe's Premier club competition at the same stage in 2013 and 2014.
Arsene Wenger's London team pipped French giants Paris St Germain by two points to claim Group A honours while Bayern ended as runners-up to last season's runners up, Atletico Madrid in Group D.
The Gunners are one of nine clubs in the last 16 draw who have never tasted Champions League (formerly the European Cup) success but did reach a final under Wenger's watch in the 2005/06 season, losing 2-1 to Barcelona at the final hurdle.
Premier League champions Leicester City have astounded friend and foe alike in their maiden Champions League venture and took Group G honours. Their reward is an last 16 showdown with Europa League champions Sevilla.
Manchester City, runners up to serial champions Barcelona in Group C, face a tough assignment against Group E winners AS Monaco, while defending champions Real Madrid host Napoli.
