On March 12 and March 19, eighth stage matches will be held for the European League, which was raffled off Friday, promising a number of intriguing meetings.
The most interesting match will bring the top of the Italian league's top spot with Hijapa, the fiery Spanish ousted by Ajax. Another Spanish-Italian meeting sends Seville and Rome head to head, sweating to reach this stage.
Manchester United, which previously dominated Club Bruges, won a draw in the Austrian league lead Lask Linz. And Olympiacos, who ousted Arsenal after the extension in the Emirates, will again meet an English rival, the surprising Wolves.
Other meetings: in Shakshir - PZ Copenhagen, Rangers - Bayer Leverkusen, Wolfsburg - Shakhtar Donetsk, Frankfurt / Salzburg - Basel.
