The Champions League group stage is now over, with 16 of Europe's biggest clubs having booked their place in the knockout rounds of the continent's elite club competition.

Barcelona were the biggest casualties of the groups, but plenty of the most prestigious names in football have made it through and will resume their European campaigns in the New Year.

Before then, they will all discover who they will face in the next round of the competition when the draw takes place.

Below, Sports Mole rounds up everything you need to know about the draw.



When is the Champions League last 16 draw?

The Champions League last 16 draw will take place at 11am GMT (12pm CET) on Monday, December 13.

It will take place at the UEFA headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland.



Which teams are involved in the Champions League last 16 draw?

As the name suggests, there will be 16 teams included in the draw, made up of the eight group winners and the eight runners-up.

The group winners will all be seeded, while the group runners-up will not be and, in theory, face a more difficult passage through.

GROUP WINNERS

Ajax
Bayern Munich
Juventus
Liverpool
Lille
Manchester City
Manchester United
Real Madrid

GROUP RUNNERS-UP

Atletico Madrid
Benfica
Chelsea
Inter Milan
Paris Saint-Germain
Red Bull Salzburg
Sporting Lisbon
Villareal


Who can face whom in the Champions League last 16?

Teams that won their group cannot face another team that won their group, meaning all seeded teams must face an unseeded team in the last 16.

Clubs can also not face another club from the same country, nor can they be drawn against a team that they have already faced in the group stage.

For example, Liverpool cannot be drawn against any other group winner, nor would they be able to take on fellow Premier League outfit Chelsea or fellow Group B side Atletico Madrid.



How can I watch the Champions League last 16 draw?

UEFA will stream the draw live on their website. You can find the stream here once it goes live on the day.


When will the Champions League last 16 take place?

The last 16 will take place over two legs; seeded teams will be away for their first legs and will play the second legs at home.

The first legs will be spread over two weeks, to be played on February 15, 16, 22 and 23.

The return legs will then take place on March 8, 9, 15 and 16.



What is the away goals rule?

While all previous two-legged Champions League knockout rounds since 1965 have included the contentious away goals rule, this has been removed for the 2021-22 competition.

This means that ties still level on aggregate after two legs will automatically go to extra time, and then penalties if required, regardless of the scoreline in each leg.
