When is the Europa League last-16 draw, who has qualified and how can you watch it?
With the play-off round coming to a close, the Europa League last-16 draw is finally here

The Europa League last-16 draw is nearly here, with Thursday night's final play-off stage games determining who progressed to the latter stages of the tournament.
Arsenal had already booked their place in the draw after winning their group, and Manchester United overcame Barcelona in order to reach the round of 16.
United were among the teams who had to navigate the play-off round after finishing second in their Europa League group, along with sides who finished third in their Champions Leage groups.
The only restriction for each draw involves national association – two teams from the same country cannot be drawn against each other at this stage.
