Bayern dispatched Arsenal in the last-16 and will now seek to beat United, whom they defeated at this stage of the competition en route to the final in the 2009-10 season. United, victors against Bayern in the 1999 final, will have to spring an upset to keep alive any hope of major silverware in David Moyes’ debut season.

Bayern sporting director Matthias Sammer warned his players not to be complacent despite United’s disappointing form.

“In the last 16 return leg, they showed they are capable of great things. On good days, they are extremely dangerous,” he said on the club’s official Twitter account. “We must not allow them to have two good days. I think the draw is doable, but also dangerous.”

Real Madrid, meanwhile, will look to make amends for their defeat to Borussia Dortmund in the semifinals of last year’s competition as they attempt to maintain their charge towards a long-awaited 10th European crown.

Dortmund CEO Aki Watzke said the draw was unfortunate for his team, who had also played Madrid in the group stage last season.

“There was no easy draw, but it’s not that nice that we have to play them for the third time in 18 months,” he said. “We are rank outsiders. It’s the same [Madrid] team, really. They’ve swapped [Gareth] Bale for [Mesut] Ozil but Real, alongside Bayern Munich, are the best team in Europe right now. It’s very difficult task indeed.”

Dortmund, who have endured severe injury problems this season, will also be without star striker Robert Lewandowski for the game at the Bernabeu after he was controversially booked in the last round against Zenit St Petersburg.

“Lewandowski’s absence in the first leg is bitter, even more so because it was a laughable decision,” Watzke added. “Real have a lot of respect for Lewandowski.”
