Match backgroundReal Madrid CF and Manchester United FC will square off in a much-anticipated last-16 showdown lent extra spiceby the presence of Old Trafford old boy Cristiano Ronaldo in the home ranks.

• The sight of Ronaldo facing United for the first time since his departure adds another layer of intrigue to a contestpairing clubs who have met in four previous European Cup ties – with the winners going on to lift the trophy on threeoccasions.

• It is also an opportunity for José Mourinho to renew his rivalry with Sir Alex Ferguson. Although United reached theround of 16 as Group H winners, Group D runners-up Madrid have won eight of their last nine UEFA ChampionsLeague home fixtures and can draw further encouragement from the fact United have conceded first in their last fiveEuropean outings and have won only twice in 20 visits to Spain.

Previous meetings• Madrid came out on top in three of the clubs' four previous encounters – in the semi-finals in 1956/57 and quarter-finalsin 1999/2000 and 2002/03 – with United prevailing in the 1967/68 semi-finals.

• In the 1999/2000 quarter-finals, eventual champions Madrid advanced 3-2 on aggregate as they followed up agoalless home draw by taking a 3-0 lead in Manchester through Roy Keane's own goal and a Raúl double, beforeBeckham and Paul Scholes replied for the then holders. Ryan Giggs and Iker Casillas also featured.

After George Best had scored the only goal of their 1967/68semi-final first leg at Old Trafford, they trailed Madrid 3-1 at half-time in the return but goals by David Sadler and BillFoulkes earned a 4-3 aggregate victory and United went on to lift the trophy for the first time.
