Paris: Celtic face a tricky Europa League last-32 tie after being drawn Monday against Italy's Inter Milan as Liverpool take on gritty Turkish side Besiktas.
For former European heavyweights Liverpool it will be a return to Istanbul, the scene of their memorable 2005 Champions League final victory over AC Milan in which current skipper Steven Gerrard scored. As for Celtic, they will rekindle their acquaintance with a side they fought the most famous match in the club's history against -- the 1967 European Cup final -- which Jock Stein's side, nicknamed the 'Lisbon Lions', won 2-1.
