Arsenal do not have a confirmed Champions League last‑16 opponent yet, but we know the small group of teams they can face.

Who can Arsenal play?

Because Arsenal finished top of the new Champions League league phase, they skip the play‑off round and go straight into the last 16. Under UEFA’s bracket for this season, they will be paired with one of four teams that finished lower in the league table but still qualified.

Current possible opponents are:

  • Atalanta
  • Bayer Leverkusen
  • Borussia Dortmund
  • Olympiakos

The actual opponent will only be known once UEFA conducts the last‑16 draw.

When will they play?

  • There is no Champions League game for Arsenal in February; that month is taken up by play‑offs for other clubs.
  • Arsenal’s round‑of‑16 ties are scheduled for March, with first legs on 10–11 March and second legs on 17–18 March 2026.

So if you are asking “who will Arsenal play in the Champions League?”, the accurate answer right now is: the opponent has not been drawn yet, but it will be one of Atalanta, Bayer Leverkusen, Borussia Dortmund or Olympiakos, with the tie to be played in March 2026.
