Tottenham might be somewhat happier than their two Prem rivals as they will play RB Leipzig in the knockout phase.

They avoided drawing many people’s favourites to win this year’s competition, Barcelona.

And Liverpool will be confident of progressing as the defending champs take on Atletico Madrid.

The other games see Atalanta face Valencia, Lyon versus Juventus and Napoli against Barcelona.

The first legs will take place on February 18/19 and 25/26.

The second legs will be March 10/11 and 17/18.

BLUES’ FOND MEMORIES

Lampard and the Blues return to the scene of their greatest day, when Drogba scored THAT spot-kick to down Bayern on their home turf back in 2012.

In doing so the Blues became the first London club to win the silverware.

It’s a similar story for Mo Salah and the European champs at Atletico.

They’ll head to the Wanda Metropolitano for the first time since they lifted Old Big Ears for the sixth time in June.

This time they’ll face Diego Simeone’s Atletico Madrid side and not London rivals Spurs.
