Manchester United will play La Liga leaders Real Sociedad in the last 32 of the Europa League, while Arsenal face Portuguese giants Benfica.

United, winners in 2017 under Jose Mourinho, dropped into the draw after their elimination from the Champions League – and now face Sociedad in a tie that is set to see former player Adnan Januzaj and ex-Manchester City midfielder David Silva return to Old Trafford.

Mourinho’s Tottenham will play Wolfsberger, who currently sit seventh in the Austrian league.

Leicester City, in the last 32 for the first time, play Slavia Prague, while Rangers face Antwerp of Belgium.
All five British teams were seeded and will play the first leg away from home on February 18, 2021, before the return fixtures on February 25.

Tottenham’s home match will be on a Wednesday, a day early, so that there is not a clash with Arsenal’s game in London.

Here is the draw in full
