The 16 sides remaining in this season's UEFA Cup were confirmed last night.

Spurs will face Portuguese side Braga away from home in the first leg. The Estadio Municipal de Braga is built into the Monte Castro hillside that overlooks the city.

Meanwhile, in some of the other ties Benfica will play Paris St-Germain, Lens take on Bayer Leverkusen and Werder Bremen are up against Celta Vigo, one of four Spanish clubs left in the competition.

Glasgow Rangers have been paired with another of those, Osasuna, while Newcastle United will be at home for their first leg against Dutch outfit AZ Alkmaar.
