The draw for the remaining knockout stage matches in the Uefa Champions League has been completed in Nyon, Switzerland and here we look at the head-to-head records in each of the matchups.

The three remaining English Premier League teams in the competition have avoided one another.

Manchester City vs Borussia Dortmund

Manchester City have been drawn at home in the first leg against the flawed but often brilliant Borussia Dortmund in a match.

Dortmund and City were drawn together in the 2012/13 Champions League group stage. In their first meeting a late Mario Balotelli penalty salvaged a point for the Citizens at the Etihad after Marco Reus had given the Germans a lead. In the second leg, Jurgen Klopp’s Borussia Dortmund denied City entry into the Europa League with a 1-0 victory at Signal Iduna Park. City’s group stage efforts would see Roberto Mancini axed as manager.

Porto vs Chelsea

There is a strong link between Porto and Chelsea, with Jose Mourinho having coached both teams, and the clubs have met eight times in the past, all in the Champions League.

Porto have claimed just two victories in those fixtures. In their first win over Chelsea, Benni McCarthy scored an 85th minute winner at the Estádio do Dragão.

Bayern have never beaten PSG in Paris, while the German side have also lost just once to them at home.
