Liverpool have been drawn to face AFC Ajax, Atalanta and Midtjylland in the group stage of this year's Champions League.
The Reds clinched the trophy in 2019 but were knocked out in extra-time by Atletico Madrid in the round-of-16 last season.
They found out their 2020/21 group stage opponents on Thursday, with the draw taking place in front of empty seats at UEFA's offices in Geneva.
