Champions League draw winners and losers: PSG curse their lack at drawing Real Madrid while Liverpool relax

The Champions League draw threw up addition admiration with Real Madrid adverse Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea fatigued with Barcelona.

Manchester United arch to Andalucia to face Sevilla, while crosstown rivals will accept been blessed to draw FC Basel.

Liverpool face FC Porto, while Tottenham will acceptable Juventus to Wembley in one of the ties of the round.

But who will be blessed with that draw and who is already cursing their misfortune?

Here are some winners and losers....

Winners

Manchester City

Manchester City were already one of the clash favourites, with a Arch Alliance advance of eleven credibility acceptable to advice their continental campaign.

Then they drew FC Basel, the accord weakest aggregation in the round-of-16 draw and the little bit of acceptable affluence they needed.

City now accept a able adventitious of extensive the quarter-finals in acceptable shape, able-bodied adequate and with a solid absorber aloft their calm league.

Pep Guardiola's ancillary are arena abundant football but, about as important, they're accepting the advantageous breaks. That is generally the aberration amid celebrity and failure.

Liverpool

The draw could accept been harder for FC Porto but it will be Liverpool who are thanking their advantageous stars. Back you see the ties that some of the added abandon got, they will feel that the Portuguese giants are conspicuously beatable, alike if they've bigger a lot beneath Sergio Conceicao this season.

Conceicao is an aggressive adolescent administrator who has eyes for the top and he will see this as an befalling to appearance what he and his ancillary are fabricated of.

But Jurgen Klopp will attending at some of the added pairings out there - conspicuously Absolute Madrid vs PSG - and acknowledge his advantageous stars.

Bayern Munich

The angle was austere for Bayern afterwards missing out on top atom in their accumulation but Besiktas, while hardly an accessible tie, was about as affectionate as Jupp Heynckes could accept hoped for.

It's not been a best division in Bavaria and this ability be a acceptable time to bolt them if you are the Turkish giants.

But Heynckes, who is still alive after a arrangement as he claims he's been too active to assurance it, is a arch old appearance and there's no drillmaster in the antagonism who would adorned their affairs adjoin his ancillary at the Allianz Arena.
Losers

Paris Saint-Germain

The French ancillary are atrocious to accomplish an appulse on the continental date to actually authorize themselves amid the continent's aristocratic but they got hit by one hell of a acceleration bang back they drew Absolute Madrid.

No aggregation has the affection with the European Cup that the Bernabeu club has and they consistently assume to crank it up for the knockout phase.

If PSG can annihilate a hardly off-colour Madrid ancillary again it will be a big account for them, decidedly with Kylian Mbappé and Neymar accepting angry bottomward Absolute Madrid in the accomplished 12 months. But it won't be accessible and a round-of-16 abolishment could spell absolute agitation for Unai Emery.

Mauricio Pochettino

The Argentinean drillmaster had claimed he capital one of the big teams in adjustment to actuate his side, but with abounding activity Spurs accept a bigger adventitious of Champions Alliance celebrity than annihilation domestically it is a bang in the teeth to be fatigued with such boxy opposition.

Pochettino's Spurs are acceptable to accept emerged from their accepted alarm by February, back they actually face Juve.

But this is a ancillary from Europe's aristocratic who actually can't be ignored. Tottenham will point to the actuality that they exhausted Absolute Madrid, but that's aloof one achievement while Juventus accept a history of affairs it out on the better stage.

It's assertive to be a blood-tingling tie.

La Liga

The Spanish alliance has had article of a stranglehold over Europe's arch club antagonism over the aftermost few seasons.

But that will be activated to the best in this year's clash with the three Spanish teams all landing boxy opposition.

Sevilla will face Jose Mourinho's Manchester United while Barcelona additionally accept Arch Alliance action in Chelsea.

Real Madrid face PSG, a aggregation atrocious to beating them off their perch.

Could we be staring at the aboriginal quarter-finals after a Spanish aggregation in years?
