UEFA later announced that the first leg at Anfield would be played on Wednesday, April 4 with the return match at the Etihad being played on Tuesday, April 10.
Reds boss Jurgen Klopp told his club's official website: "I've said it before and it's still the truth, it's always common in a draw that you'll get your neighbour, more or less, but to be honest I don't mind, really.
"It is exactly like it was before - we take what we've got. Now it's Manchester City, let's go.
"We've lost once and we've won once against them in the league - and I don't think they thought before the best draw they could have got is Liverpool. That's a sign for us and how strong we can be.
"We are for sure not the favourites in this round, but in the last eight there are not a lot of favourites - maybe two of them, Bayern and Barcelona - but thank god it's football and nothing is decided.
"We have a few games to play until then, but I am really looking forward to it and we will give it everything.'
