#1 A big final awaits

Bayern have been drawn to play defending champions Real Madrid yet again.

Assuming that Liverpool are able to get past Roma to book a place in the final, they would be facing either defending champions Real Madrid or Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich for the showpiece event.

These two sides are the model of consistency at the top of European football and between them, have won four out of the last five Champions League titles.

Klopp's gegenpressing may have been effective against Pep Guardiola but it might not take much for Jupp Heynckes to break it down - as the experienced boss would relish the challenge.

On the other hand, Real would love to see their opponents leaving space for their world-class players to exploit - meaning Liverpool themselves might have to adopt a different tactic to succeed. The road to Kiev might be glowing for the Reds, but there's still a massive test awaiting them in order to clinch an unlikely sixth European Cup.
