And looking at the remaining teams in the competition, the Reds, Seagulls and Hammers are some of the better sides.

Meanwhile, the Gers made the final in the 2021/22 season, so will feel they can go far again.

They all topped their respective groups and can attack this competition with everything they have, meaning this draw is important.

Europa League last-16: Draw format

The 16 teams are split into two sections.

One consists of the group-stage winners, which is where Liverpool, West Ham, Brighton and Rangers will be.

The other is made up of the play-off round winners, with the group-stage section seeded, meaning they play the second leg at home.

Clubs from the same association and same section cannot be drawn against each other at this stage, so all three Premier League sides will avoid each other, while Rangers also can’t face any of them.
