The draws for the 2015/2016 UEFA Champions League round of Sixteen, just concluded in Nyon, has seen some teams meet again
Arsenal will play against FC Barcelona again, as PSG also had a date to keep with Chelsea, yet again. Another unholy re-union has brought Bayern Munich and Juventus again.
Gent and VfL Wolfsburg, both first timers in the round of sixteen will both contest against themselves for a place in the last eight, as Manchester City will battle Dynamo Kyiv.
Bayern Munich had earlier overcome Juventus 2-0 home and away in 2012/2013 enroute to lifting the trophy. Chelsea and PSG have met in each of last two seasons with Chelsea advancing in the 2013/2014 season and PSG making it through last season. Barcelona had beaten Arsenal in the 2009/2010 quarter-finals and in the Round of Sixteen in 2010/2011. They had won the Champions League trophy in 2006 in Paris, overcoming the gunners.
The world awaits a showdown in Europe when hostilities begin in February.
ALL THE FIXTURES:
Gent vs Wolfsburg
AS Roma vs Real Madrid
PSG vs Chelsea
Arsenal vs FC Barcelona
Juventus vs Bayern Munich
PSV Eindhoven vs Athletico Madrid
Benfica vs Zenit
Dynamo Kyiv vs Man.City
