With the victory of the Liverpool in front of the Naples (1-0) in Anfield, the ones of Jürgen Klopp have classified of way agónica for the eighth of final of the UEFA Champions League 2018-19, like seconds of group after Paris Saint-Germain -that won 1-4 to the Crash Red-, and with the note in the hand the Liverpool turns into a rival potential for FC Barcelona and Real Madrid in eighth of final.

Adding to the group 'network', Barcelona and Real Madrid already know to three of his possible rivals in the following round of the League of Champions. The culés empataron 1-1 against the Tottenham in the Camp Nou, but already had ensured from the fifth day of the phase of groups the first square of the Group B. They will measure to a second of group that was not Spanish, and that was not the one of his same GroupB .

Fulfilling these requirements, and throwing an ojeada to the rest of groups of the Champions League, arrives to the conclusion that already there is three possible candidates to confront to the FC Barcelona in the following round of the competition. One of them is the Rome, precisely the team that 'threw' to the culés the past season in the round of quarter-finals.

It would be amused for the FC Barcelona have the opportunity to sign the 'vendetta' in front of the Italians, already in the same round of eighth of final. The 'giallorossi' will have to play his respective party of the day 6 of the phase of groups this Wednesday, in front of Viktoria Plzen to domicile, but already know from the fifth day that are mathematically second of group.

The FC Barcelona, if it does not confront to the Rome, also could do it against the Schalke 04. The germanos won this Tuesday home to the Lokomotiv of Moscow (1-0), although in the previous day already had the confirmation to be able to access to the round of eighth of final like seconds of group, already without possibility to reach the first position of the Port wine.

Two a priori affordable rivals for the FC Barcelona, therefore, although the Rome has something more than level that the Schalke 04, as already demotró the past season giving the surprise to plant in the semifinals of the competition. Now, it is necessary to add to this short list to another possible rival, the Liverpool. The 'reds' have remained second of group by behind Paris Saint-Germain, and a priori are the rival potentially more dangerous.

Until this Wednesday, the FC Barcelona will not know to the last possible rivals, that could be Manchester United or Juventus (Group H), Manchester City, Lyon or Shakhtar (Group F), or Bayern Munich or Ajax (Group And). It will know in the draw that will carry out next Monday 17 December in Nyon (Switzerland), and that will generate a big expectancy as it is usual year after year.

On the other hand, the one who will have to know also rival is the Real Madrid, that can confront for now to Schalke 04, Liverpool or Tottenham, and also to the possible rivals that will decide for the FC Barcelona this Wednesday. The 'bolitas' will command on 17 December.
