Liverpool are close to completing their famous comeback to European football, as the 5 times champions, have finally been drawn against the teams that they’ll go face to face with between now and December in a quest to qualify for the knock out stages of the tournament.
Liverpool were in pot 3, which meant the Merseyside club faced the possibility of landing themselves in a group with Real Madrid, Paris SG and Roma.
Liverpool in fact saw themselves tied with current Champions League holders, Real Madrid, with the 5 times winners facing off with the 10 times winners. The last time the duo faced each other, Liverpool knocked 4 past Madrid, in a thrilling European night at Anfield, with Gerrard and Torres grabbing the goals.
Making up the group is Basel and Ludogorets, 2 sides that aren’t to be underestimated, although Rodgers and co will fancy their chances of qualification from the group.
