Barcelona against Napoli is the stand out tie in the Europa League play-offs, with Rangers taking on Borussia Dortmund.

Barcelona find themselves trying to keep alive their hopes of European football after finishing third in their Champions League group behind Bayern Munich and Benfica. It is the first time since 2003-04, when Barcelona were in the UEFA Cup, that the Catalan club will not be in the knockout stages of the Champions League, a competition they have won five times. Napoli, winners of the competition in 1989, progressed from a Europa League group which included Leicester, who they beat 3-2 in the final group game in Naples.

Sevilla, who have won the competition a record six times, will have added incentive to add to that tally with this season’s final taking place at their Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium. Real Betis also see the final hosted in their home city and will play 2008 winners Zenit St Petersburg. The competition’s most successful club Sevilla were paired with Dinamo Zagreb.

Champions League draw

Speaking of RB Salzburg, that was who Liverpool thought they were facing before the re-draw. Now they will travel to the San Siro to take on Inter Milan in February before the return leg in Anfield in March.

A tough task, but one you feel they are more than up to passing.

Champions League draw

Worth a mention for RB Salzburg. They haven’t really had the rub of the green in either of the draws today. Liverpool in the first one, now they will face 2020 champions Bayern Munich.

The Austrian outfit are into the Champions League knockout stages and straight in at the deep end.

Positive signs for Chelsea - who have drawn Lille twice today!

Champions League draw

Man City are preparing to face Sporting Lisbon for the first time since the 2011-12 Europa League last 16 when the Portuguese side stunned them to win on away goals.

Champions League draw

Tie of the round? Has to be PSG vs Real Madrid.

Champions League draw

A simply superb stat, this. Safe to say Atletico will not be relishing the chance of coming up against Cristiano Ronaldo yet again.

Champions League draw

Rudiger reacts. Looks like he enjoyed all of that nonsense.

Champions League draw

So Manchester United will now face Atletico Madrid rather than PSG. Possibly an easier tie, but still incredibly difficult for Ralf Rangnick’s side.

The only tie which has remained from the botched draw is Chelsea vs Lille.

Liverpool face a tough task as they take on Serie A champions Inter Milan - on paper a more challenging tie than their original opponents RB Leipzig.

And Manchester City take on Sporting Lisbon in a tie they will be confident of winning (they were originally drawn against Villarreal).

Miguel is on hand to explain things. Panic over!

Hold the phone! It was said that Liverpool couldn’t face Villarreal. But why? Have they got this wrong again?!
