The Europa League Round of 32 draw was conducted Monday, and while many of the fixtures don't exactly leap off the page, several do promise to intrigue.

Arguably the most exciting clash sees Spanish side Villarreal meet Italian club Roma, the draw pitting a pair of teams with ambitions of making next season's Champions League against each other.

Elsewhere, the meeting between Manchester United and St. Etienne offers an opportunity for brothers Paul and Florentin Pogba to occupy the pitch at the same time.
