Manchester City and Arsenal got a favorable fixture in the draw of the Champions League last 16, as they will have weaker rivals than expected to continue in the tournament, and they, a priori, shouldn’t have problems to advance to the next round of the competition, despite the greatest European competition can always present big surprises.

One of them, the incredible Copenhagen will return to Manchester for the Round of 16 of the Champions League to play with Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City for a spot in the quarter finals of the competition, as the Danish side continues with their dream performance in the tournament after having been able to drop Manchester United from their race to the trophy.

In this sense, it would be worth remembering that the Scandinavian team was, alongside Galatasaray, one of the teams who slammed merciless Manchester United in the group stage, leaving the Ten Hag’s side out of the European competitions in this season, which was labeled by English media as an unexplainable failure.

Arsenal would face Mehdi Tahremi’s team

Meanwhile, Arsenal will also have a favorable fixture against FC Porto, and the Gunners will compete against the Portuguese side, who had a great performance against FC Barcelona and Royal Antwerp in the group H, with the Manchester United target Mehdi Tahremi as one of their main players despite they shouldn’t be a difficult rival for the Gunners, who have shown a really high level in the competition.
