Who could Arsenal face in Europa League round of 16? All seven potential opponents confirmed

Arsenal will find out their Europa League round of 16 opponents tomorrow.

The north Londoners topped their group which consisted of PSV, Bodo/Glimt and FC Zurich, meaning they didn't have to partake in the recent round of 32 which took place over the last week. This, combined with the fact that the Gunners are no longer in the FA Cup or Carabao Cup, has allowed them to have most midweeks free.

The extra rest has helped Mikel Arteta's men mount a serious Premier League title challenge, currently sitting two points clear of second-placed Manchester City, who have also played an extra league match this term. However, Arsenal are in action in each of the next three midweeks, playing Everton in the league on Wednesday night before their European knockouts get underway on the two following Thursdays.

The Gunners came close to winning the competition back in the 2018/19 campaign, reaching the final before losing 4-1 to Chelsea in a hugely disappointing loss in Baku. Arteta was knocked out by Olympiacos in the round of 16 stage during his first season as Arsenal boss before faltering in the semi-finals to eventual winners Villarreal the following season.

The north Londoners could face the likes of Serie A giants Juventus, Europa League specialists Sevilla or Jose Mourinho's AS Roma in tomorrow's draw and below, football.london takes a look at all seven of the potential opponents that they could potentially come up against. Arsenal can't be paired with Man United because they are from the same association.

Potential opponents confirmed:

Union Berlin

Juventus

Sporting Lisbon

Shakhtar Donetsk

Bayer Leverkusen

Sevilla

Roma
