In Friday's draw, Liverpool was matched up against French giants PSG, paving the way for their journey to the Munich final.
If Liverpool defeats PSG, they will then face the winners of the last-16 matchup between Club Brugge and Aston Villa. A victory in that round would lead them to a semi-final against either Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, PSV Eindhoven, or Arsenal.
Liverpool advanced directly to the last-16 as top seeds after finishing first in the revamped competition's league phase, achieving an impressive seven wins out of eight matches. Their only loss came in the final match against PSV Eindhoven, where they fell 3-2 after manager Arne Slot rotated the squad.
The standout moment of the league phase was their 2-0 win over Real Madrid at Anfield, featuring goals from Alexis Mac Allister and Cody Gakpo, along with a crucial penalty save from goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher against Kylian Mbappe. Additionally, Liverpool showcased their strength with a 4-0 victory over Bayer Leverkusen, highlighted by a hat-trick from Luis Diaz.
With this strong performance, Liverpool fans are hopeful for a successful campaign in the knockout stages ahead.
