Reacting to the draw, Slot heaped praise on PSG but has stressed that his side take care of matters in the Premier League before turning their attentions back to the Champions League.
"They qualified for the last 16 of the Champions League in style earlier this week with a big win against Brest and they had some really good results in the league phase, defeating Stuttgart, Manchester City, Girona and Salzburg.
"Of course, our immediate focus is on our upcoming Premier League fixtures, starting with Manchester City on Sunday, but we will be doing everything we can to ensure that we are in the best possible shape when the Champions League resumes.".
As a result of finishing top in the new league phase format, Liverpool could only be drawn to face either the winners of the play-off ties between the 15th and 16th seeds, or the 17th and 18th seeds.
Then when the round of 16 draw was made at the House of European football in Nyon, Switzerland, it was confirmed that Liverpool will face PSG over two legs next month with Slot’s side at home for the decider.
