Europa League favourites AC Milan, Arsenal draw each other in last 16LAURENCE GRIFFITHS/GETTY IMAGES Shkodran Mustafi and Arsenal will face AC Milan in the Round of 16 in the Europa League next month. AC Milan's hunt for the only European title it is missing will continue against one of the strongest possible opponents in the last 16 of the Europa League: Arsenal. The two favourites in the second tier European competition were drawn against each other on Friday (Saturday NZ Time). Both Milan and Arsenal are currently outside the top four in their domestic leagues, so the Champions League place awarded to the Europa League winner could be the best chance for them to return to the elite competition next season. Also in the draw, Atletico Madrid, the 2010 and 2012 Europa League winners, were drawn to face Lokomotiv Moscow.
