The path of the Europa League knockouts - from the round of 16 to the final - has officially been revealed, with the draw taking place following the conclusion of the playoffs last night. 16 teams are in contention to conquer the trophy and dethrone last year's winner Atalanta facing an early elimination from the tournament.

Manchester United and Spurs will be looking to reach the final, which will be held on May 21 at the San Mames Stadium, after finishing off the league phase into the top eight places. The two English sides could both make it into the final in Bilbao as they sit in opposite brackets.
