That's how bad things are at Liverpool. They face Portsmouth on Saturday and Javier Mascherano says victory against the Premier League's worst club will be "three amazing points".

The three Premier League clubs won their groups but Liverpool exited the competition after their third-place finish and drop into the Europa League.

 

The trio, who cannot face each other or teams they met in their group, will play runners-up from the group stages.

 

The draw takes place at 1100 GMT and is followed by the Europa League draw.

 

Arsenal, Chelsea and United will definitely avoid fellow group winners Barcelona, Bordeaux, Real Madrid, Fiorentina and Sevilla.

 

But the likes of Bayern Munich, AC Milan and Inter Milan are all possible opponents.

David Beckham will return to Manchester United with AC Milan in the last 16 of the Champions League, while Inter Milan boss Jose Mourinho faces former club Chelsea.

 

Beckham, who will start a spell at AC Milan on loan from Los Angeles Galaxy next month, has got his wish to face the club where he started his career when Europe's top competition resumes in February.

Mourinho will return to Stamford Bridge with his Serie A champions for the first time since he left Chelsea in September 2007.

Arsenal have arguably received the easiest draw of the Barclays Premier League trio as they will face Portuguese champions Porto.
