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
