Liverpool, City and Chelsea dodge big guns in UCL last 16

Chelsea have landed arguably the toughest tie of the three English teams left in the Champions League - after the Blues were drawn to face La Liga leaders Atletico Madrid. 

Frank Lampard's side will have to travel to Spain to face Diego Simeone's gritty Atletico, who knocked then holders Liverpool out at the same stage of the competition last season.

Liverpool, meanwhile, have been handed a tricky draw against last season semi-finalists Leipzig, who have form against English sides having knocked out Manchester United out in this season's group stages and Tottenham at in knockout stages last season.

Out of the three English teams left, Man City appear to have the easiest passage to the quarter-finals: Pep Guardiola's side drawn against Borussia Monchengladbach. Gladbach are in the last 16 for the very first time, but qualified from a group containing Inter Milan and Real Madrid.
