The last-16 draw of the 2022-23 Champions League gave us two absolute blockbusters, starting with defending champions Real Madrid facing Liverpool in a repeat of last year's final. The two teams also met in the 2018 final, with both games won by Real Madrid. The other big tie sees Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain go head to head, while Tottenham and Chelsea have also learned their opponents.

Defending champions Real Madrid have been drawn to play against Liverpool in the last 16 of the 2022-23 Champions League.
It is a repeat of the 2022 Champions League final earlier this year that saw Madrid win a tense affair 1-0. The two teams also played in the 2018 final, which Real Madrid won 3-1.
The other blockbuster tie of the round sees Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich face off against Paris Saint-Germain and their attacking trident of Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe and Neymar. The French champions lost top spot on the final matchday of the group stage, thus risking a tougher draw like this one.
Tottenham Hotspur will face off against Italian champions AC Milan whilst London rivals Chelsea will meet Bundesliga outfit Borussia Dortmund, meaning a return to his former club for American forward Christian Pulisic.
Elsewhere, Premier League champions Manchester City will take on RB Leipzig from Germany.
The first-leg last-16 matches will be played on February 14/15/21/22, with the second legs played on March 7/8/14/15. The final will take place on June 10, 2023 at Istanbul's Ataturk Olympic Stadium.
The clash between 14-time champions Real Madrid and Liverpool comes less than a year after Vinicius Junior's goal decided the 2022 final between the two sides.
As well as the 2018 final, Real also beat Liverpool in the 2021 quarter-finals, drawing 0-0 at Anfield after a 3-1 home win.
Bayern and PSG met in the 2021 quarter-finals too, with the Ligue 1 side advancing on away goals after a 3-3 aggregate score.
PSG missed out on top spot in their group after Benfica won 6-1 in their last match to edge the head-to-head record on away goals.
