Arselona vs Barcenal pls. Actually can't see Arsenal beating any of the group winners.

So many high-quality teams in this years competition, most open it has been for years. There are going to be some great match-ups from here on in.

So Arsenal can't play United or Schalke in the next round. Let's hope they get Barca, Dortmund or Bayern.
Dortmund Arsenal pls

Dortmund, Bayern or Barca. I'd fancy Juve and PSG to beat them too. Quite a strong last 16 this year.

I think it's more evidence that the premier league is living off past glories and is overhyped. Great to watch, but not the best league and hasn't been for a few years now, Bundesliga is quickly catching up.
Mönchengladbach didn't make it through to the group stage, but have qualified for the next round in the EL. So have Leverkusen and Hannover as well, while Stuttgart need to win at home against Molde tomorrow.
Haven't Spain got 4? Real, Barca, Malaga and Valencia?
And there's only one Portuguese club

Spanish, Italian clubs have also had a significant contribution to finals over this time but not to the same extent as England. Two runners up for Germany (both Bayern). And bear in mind that when Barca and Inter won their titles they also were far and away the dominant team at home, but Chelsea and Liverpool won their titles when finishing only fifth in their leagues.
There have also been a very strong presence from English clubs right up to quarter finals in most years, and lets not forget our own fantastic contribution for a debut season. The failings of City, Chelski (and Man U last year) stand out because they are exceptionally bad, but to be fair City have had a particularly tough draw two years running.

You can't be drawn against teams from the same country or from your group. Draw starts in 30 minutes. UEFA.com should have a stream, but don't get your hopes up.

Why is it at Wembley again? Very dull stadium.
