Due to the nature of the draw, Liverpool already knows the six potential sides they could meet in the quarter-finals as well as the semi-finals.

The event didn’t just decide the Round of 16 ties – it fixed the entire knockout tree, meaning the Reds now know which side of the bracket they’re on and which heavyweights are locked in as possible opponents later in the tournament. Within that framework, Liverpool’s list of possible knockout opponents has already been narrowed down.

Based on how the bracket has been constructed, the Reds are guaranteed to face two of six clubs at some stage on their side of the draw (depending on how far the Reds go of course): Chelsea, Paris Saint‑Germain, Real Madrid, Manchester City, Atalanta or Bayern Munich. If Liverpool keep progressing, every knockout round will come from this pool of teams, giving a clear sense of just how demanding the road to Budapest is likely to be.
