Champions League: Barca to face City, Chelsea to take on PSG

The UEFA Champions League Round of 16 looks set to be super exciting after Spanish giants FC Barcelona were drawn against reigning Premier League champions, Manchester City.

Both sides met each other at this exact stage of the competition last year, with the Catalans triumphing, but Pellegrini’s men will be aiming to seek revenge, now that they’ll be taking on each other in February 2015.

Besides that, David Luiz will be making a return to Stamford Bridge after PSG were paired up against the Blues. Both sides have been on imperious form this season, which definitely makes this clash even more interesting, besides the fact that Zlatan Ibrahimovic is involved in it.

Juventus will be taking on struggling Bundesliga side, Borussia Dortmund, while reigning champions Real Madrid have been handed a decent tie against Schalke 04.
