GOTZE EYES KLOPP REUNION
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp could face former club Borussia Dortmund in the last 16.
And his ex-player Mario Gotze has spoken about the prospect of a reunion.
“That would be a tough test,” the German playmaker said.
“Let's wait and see what happens. Regardless of which opponent you get in the Champions League last 16, it will be tense and very, very tough."
JOSE’S TOP FOUR CLAIM
Does United boss Jose Mourinho might need to win the Champions League to stand any chance of getting in to the competition next season?
Well, Mourinho is having none of it despite his side being a whopping 11 points off the top four after Sunday's defeat by Liverpool.
“Yes, I think (we can),” he said. “What gives me that belief? It gives me the belief that we are going to make much more points in the second part of the season than we did in the first part.”
“I know we lost some other matches but we played away at Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester City - probably the three best teams apart from Tottenham.
“But we play with them away. I think we have more possibility to get more points in the second part of the season than the first part.”
HOW THE DRAW WORKS
Just a quick reminder as to how this works - in case you didn’t already know.
No teams from the same country can be drawn against each other and teams who qualified from the same group will be kept apart for this round.
Seeded teams will have the advantage - if it is one - of playing the first leg away from home.
Just looking at the potential opponents for the unseeded English teams and it makes for some scary reading. Porto must be the one team they all want.
CHAMPIONS LEAGUE DRAW LIVE
Good morning and Welcome to Express Sport’s live coverage of the Champions League last-16 draw.
We have all of the four English teams in the hat - although only Manchester City are seeded.
Manchester United, Liverpool and Tottenham are all facing the prospect of a very tough draw, with the likes of Barcelona, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich a potential opponent for all three of them.
We are due to get underway at 11am. But, as I’m sure you know, these things have a habit of being delayed.
