Tough tasks ahead for Juventus and Porto

The Italian champions will have to see off the Ligue 1 representatives if they are to keep their dream of a final in Turin alive, while the Portuguese meet the Liga outfit

Juventus will take on Olympique Lyonnais in the most mouth-watering match-up in the quarter-finals of the Europa League.

The Serie A champions have set their sights on making it to the final on home soil, but will have to deal with the rejuvenated French outfit first.

Elsewhere, Eredivisie outfit AZ were paired with Lisbon side Benfica, who have set their sights firmly fixed on making amends for last season's final loss to Chelsea.

Portuguese champions Porto will face Sevilla as they battle for a semi-final spot, while Basel take on Valencia in the remaining quarter-final tie.

The first legs will take place on April 3, with the second legs scheduled for April 10.

The draw for the semi-finals will be held on April 11, and the tournament concludes at the Juventus Stadium on May 14.
