The draw for the 2021/22 Champions League knockout stages takes place on Monday, with some mouth-watering ties lying in wait already.

Clubs discovered their fates on Monday afternoon at the UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland, for the last-16 stage in the Champions League.

NOTE: The results for the last-16 Champions League draw have been made void due to a technical error. UEFA has confirmed a second draw for the knockout stages will take place later on Monday afternoon.
