When Chelsea vs Borussia Dortmund and Tottenham vs AC Milan Champions League ties will be played

Chelsea and Tottenham have learnt their Champions League fate following the round-of-16 draw.

Both sides came through the group stage as winners after a second half comeback secured top spot for Antonio Conte's side, while Graham Potter overturned Chelsea's fortunes after having just one point from the opening two games.

The draw has presented two interesting last-16 matches with Chelsea being pitted against Borussia Dortmund whilst Conte will return to San Siro to face AC Milan.

Both sides will play away from home first before the second legs are held in London at Stamford Bridge and the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The matches also provide plenty of returns and extrinsic narrative.

Chelsea have Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Christian Pulisic facing off against their former side whilst Thorgan Hazard plays the Blues for the first time since his sale in 2015. It will also be the first meeting between the two sides.

For Tottenham, Conte will play back at his former home stadium. The Italian left Inter Milan - who also play at San Siro - last summer and will now return back to face arch rivals AC Milan.

When will the last-16 knockout matches be played?

Although not yet confirmed as to which slot the games will have, half of the last-16 first leg matches are set for February 14/15 with the other half taking place one week later on February 21/22.

The second leg ties will be two weeks on from the first leg which will be either March 7/8 or March 14/15.
