Champions League Draw: Liverpool Drawn With Napoli, Barcelona Will Meet Inter Milan In 'Group of Death'


Barcelona have found themselves amidst team many have described as 'group of death'. Unlike the defending champions, Liverpool, the Catalan club has two strong contenders like Inter Milan and Borussia Dortmund in Group F.

Aside from Locomotiv Moscow in Group D - of course, they are capable of staging a scare - Juventus did not have easy contenders in their group either as the Cristiano Ronaldo led team will have to slug it out with teams like Atletico Madrid and Bayer Leverkusen.

For title defenders, Liverpool, the only team that seemed to hold a challenge could be Napoli but not at that Jurgen Klopp can not deal with. For Salzburg and Genk, both teams will have works to do against the Reds which have the likes of Mo Salah, Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino to do the damage.

"Napoli are obviously a very experienced side," Klopp said in admission. "I will need to have another closer look at Genk and Salzburg, but I already know they are very young, very exciting and fresh, so it will be interesting, 100%."

Presently, Liverpool's opponents might find Anfield as a place that is going to be tough for them. Reason being that Reds have not conceded a match at home since losing 3-0 to Real Madrid in the group stage in 2014/15.
