I think they no longer consider avoiding teams from the same
nation drawing each other, from the q-finals onwards. Only for the
round of 16 draw.
Anyway, tonight will be a real tough game for Arsenal. With the
exception of last season whereby the gunners got to the final, over
the past few seasons, PSV actually had a better record in the
competition than Arsenal, and should be more experienced than the
young gunners side. Will see how Henry is going to inspire his side
to make a remarkable comeback.
As for United, they should make it past Lille, unless they shoot
themselves in the foot.
