Europa League last 16 draw: All you need to know as Manchester United and Tottenham learn their opponents for the next round of the competition

A fresh look to the Europa League has provided it with added gloss but the action throughout the competition has been as exciting as ever.

The new inclusion of a play-off round prior to the last-16 has also seen some familiar European names fall away at an early stage in the competition.

However, Premier League giants Manchester United and Tottenham haven't had to worry, having secured an automatic spot in the last-16 by virtue of finishing in the top eight of the initial group phase.

After Thursday's results, it's now confirmed that the Premier League sides will face either AZ Alkmaar or Real Sociedad in the next round of the competition.
