The Europa League also determined the playoff pairs, with the teams booking tough matches that guarantee great emotions. Claudio Ranieri's Roma challenges Porto, with the first match to be played in the Italian capital.
The Reds, although not in the best form, this trophy remains in their objectives although the task this season will be very difficult. If Roma manages to qualify for the next phase, we could have a capital derby against Lazio or they could play with the Spanish team Bilbao, writes A2.
On the other hand, Ajax faces Belgian side Royal Union. On paper, the Dutch are favorites, but in this competition they have not yet managed to give their best, closing the group with 13 points after 8 matches.
A strong match on paper is also the one between Alkmaar and Galatasaray, two strong teams that will do their best to go to the 1/8 stage. The winner of this pair will play in the next round with Manchester United or Tottenham.
Real Sociedad has been lucky as they will play against the Danes of Midtyjlland, while Twente challenges the Norwegians of Bodo Glimt.
In other matches, Hungarians Ferencvaros face Viktoria Plzen, while Fenerbahçe plays Anderlecht, while PAOK plays Steaua Bucharest.
The first legs of the playoff phase will be played on February 13, while the return legs will be played on February 20. (A2 Televizion)
