The Europa League returns on Thursday with the first legs of the round of 16 with Chelsea and Arsenal both leading contenders for the title.
Chelsea remain favourites to capture the trophy, and they entertain Ukrainian giants Dynamo Kiev. Arsenal face a tough looking trip to France to face Rennes.
Elsewhere, Italian giants Inter Milan and Napoli are also considered real candidates for the trophy. Inter face Eintracht Frankfurt and Napoli are up against Red Bull Salzburg.
Few have better Europa League pedigree than Sevilla and they will be confident of progressing as they face Slavia Prague.
Valencia will also be hopeful of progressing as they face Russian side Krasnodar. There is also a Russian-Spanish clash in St Petersburg as Zenit take on Villarreal.
Benfica – fancied by many to win – take on Dinamo Zagreb.
