Liverpool will face Unirea Urziceni in the first knock-out round of this season's UEFA Europa League.
The Reds will entertain the Romanians in the first leg at Anfield on Thursday February 18 before travelling for the return the following week.
Fomer Chelsea defender Dan Petrescu manages Unirea, who finished third in their Champions League group behind Sevilla and Stuttgart.
"It'll be a difficult game," said Kenny Dalglish, who was at the draw ceremony on behalf of the Club. "They've got a break until March now I think. Whether that helps or hinders them, it remains to be seen. Unirea got eight points from a difficult group so we have to give them the respect they deserve."
Unirea play their domestic home games at the Tineretului Stadium, but because it only has a capacity of 7,000 all European games are played at the Steaua Stadium in Bucharest.
If the Reds overcome Unirea then they face a last sixteen clash against the winners of the tie between Lille and Fenerbahce.
The draw for the last 32 is as follows:
Rubin Kazan v Hapoel Tel-Aviv
Athletic Bilbao v Anderlecht
FC Copenhagen v Marseille
Panathinaikos v Roma
Atletico Madrid v Galatasaray
Ajax v Juventus
Club Brugge v Valencia
