LONDON, Feb. 28 (Xinhua) -- Manchester United have been drawn to face Austrian club LASK in the last 16 of the Europa League, while their Premier League peers Wolves will play against Olympiakos from Greece.

The Red Devils will travel to Austria on March 12 for the first leg before hosting their opponents at Old Trafford on March 19.

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admitted that it would be a new experience against a club they have never met.

"It's a new experience for us to play against them," said Solskjaer. "The name is not very familiar for many, but I've followed Austrian football a little bit."

"They were high-intensity teams. Physical teams. For me, it's similar to when we played last night," he added.

On Thursday, Manchester United swept Brugge 5-0, eliminating the Belgian side 6-1 in aggregate.

Inter Milan will meet Getafe and Sevilla will face Roma. Wolfsburg have been drawn to play against Shakhtar Donetsk.
