Champions League last-16 draw |
---|
Date: Monday, 16 December Venue: Nyon, Switzerland |
Liverpool and fellow English sides Manchester City, Chelsea and Tottenham will find out who they face in the last 16 of the Champions League when the draw takes place at 11:00 GMT in Nyon on Monday.
Holders Liverpool and City will go into the draw as seeds.
Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Real Madrid are among the other clubs to reach the knockout phase.
This season’s final is on 30 May at the Ataturk Stadium in Istanbul.
The teams will be divided into two pots, with the first consisting of all of the group-stage winners, the other all the runner-ups.
No team can face another club from the same country or a team that they played during the group stage.
That means that Liverpool could not face Tottenham, Chelsea or Napoli. Manchester City would also avoid their fellow English clubs and Atalanta.
The seeded group winners will play away from home first, ensuring they have home advantage in the second leg.
The last-16 ties begin on 18-19 February and 25-26 February, with the second legs scheduled to take place on 10-11 March and 17-18 March.
Pot one:
Barcelona, Bayern Munich, Juventus, Liverpool, Manchester City, RB Leipzig, Paris St-Germain, Valencia
