The Reds guaranteed their spot in this season’s Round of 16 with a match to spare, and completed the opening stage by travelling to PSV Eindhoven.
Despite their 3-2 loss in the Netherlands, Arne Slot’s side finished in first place in the league-phase table.
In the last 16, they will therefore meet a team that finished 15th, 16th, 17th or 18th in the standings and qualified for the knockout phase play-offs – which, respectively, were Paris Saint-Germain, Benfica, Monaco and Brest.
Those four clubs will be paired together in the knockout phase play-off draw on Friday (January 31), with their two-legged ties to be held on February 11/12 and February 18/19.
The last-16 draw is set to be held on February 21, when the paths for the rest of the knockout stage will also be mapped out.
