As reigning European Cup holders, the Reds are in Pot 1 for Thursday’s draw in Monaco along with Chelsea, Barcelona, Manchester City, Juventus, Bayern Munich, Paris Saint-Germain and Zenit St Petersburg.
They will be placed in a section with one team from each of the other three pots, listed below.
Jürgen Klopp’s men cannot face a fellow Premier League side at this stage of the competition, so will not be drawn with Tottenham Hotspur from Pot 2.
The first round of group-stage matches will take place on September 17/18 and the phase will conclude on December 10/11.
