Liverpool versus City promises goals, Juve plot Madrid revenge – Champions League quarter-finals in

The Champions League quarter-final draw delivered some intriguing ties, including a contest that should produce plenty of goals between Liverpool and Manchester City, as well as a revenge mission for Juventus against Real Madrid.

Liverpool and City have been among the best attacking teams in world football this season, and will take their domestic rivalry onto the European stage.

Juve are aiming to avenge last season’s final heartbreak against Madrid, while Barcelona tackle Roma, and Bayern Munich take on new opponents in the form of Sevilla.

Below, we have used Opta data to look at some of the best stats for the last-eight draw.
