Above are the calculations that give us % chances of teams drawing each other in the 2012-2013 Champions League last 16. Where the chance is 0%, that is because teams cannot be drawn against one another because they were from the same group, the same national league or because they are 1st and 2nd seed pairing. Real Madrid will be the team that all 1st place finishers look to avoid. There is a 21.5% chance of a mouthwatering Man Utd v Real Madrid last 16 tie.
No-one cares enough to create one for the Europa League
The Europa League last 32 ties will be played on 14 and 21 February. The draw for the last 16 will be made immediately after the draw for the last 32.
14.00CET (!3.00 UK Time), Thursday 20 December, Nyon
The draw for the round of 32 includes the top two teams from each of the 12 groups along with the eight sides transferring from the UEFA Champions League after finishing third in their pools.
The UEFA Europa League group winners are all seeded, along with the four UEFA Champions League qualifiers with the best record in their section. The other four sides transferring from the elite competition and the UEFA Europa League group runners-up are in the unseeded pot and are drawn first, meaning they are drawn to play the first-leg matches at home. They cannot be paired with either the winners from their section or clubs from the same association.
The draw for the round of 16, which will be played on 7 and 14 March, follows and there are no seeded teams. The 16 balls containing slips of paper for 'Winners of match 1' to 'Winners of match 16' are placed in one bowl and shuffled. The first team drawn are to play their first match at home against the second team drawn and the same procedure is then repeated for the other matches. There are no restrictions on the round of 16 draw.
