It's Liverpool v United in the UEFA Youth League
Manchester United’s Under-19s will take on Liverpool away in the UEFA Youth League round of 16, and could face Manchester City in the quarter-finals, after the draw was made on Friday.
The one-off game on Merseyside will be played on Wednesday 21 February at Tranmere Rovers' Prenton Park stadium, with kick-off at 15:00 GMT, and has been selected for live television coverage in the UK.
The winners will go on to visit the victors between Manchester City and Inter Milan in the last-eight stage, on 13 or 14 March.
The trip to Liverpool comes after Nicky Butt’s side passed a stiff test in Belgrade on Wednesday night, beating Serbian champions Brodarac 2-0 thanks to an Indy Boonen strike and an own goal by Mihajlo Ivancevic.
