Arsenal will play Sporting Lisbon in the last 16 of the Europa League while Manchester United have been drawn against Real Betis.

The Gunners, who advanced to this stage as group winners, will take on the Portuguese side over two legs on March 9 and March 16.

It remains to be seen how much importance Mikel Arteta places on the competition given his side’s position in the Premier League title race and the gruelling Thursday-Sunday schedule it will take to win it.
