Which teams are in the pot for the Champions League quarter-final draw?
The identity of the teams in the hat for the Champions League quarter-final draw will not be finalised until the last-16 fixtures conclude on March 17.
It is an open draw, meaning there is no seeding in place and the country protections which were in place for the last 16 will not apply.
So, for example, we could potentially see a Clasico quarter-final involving Barcelona and Real Madrid should both teams progress.
| Team | Country |
|---|---|
| Borussia Monchengladbach / Manchester City | Germany / England |
| Lazio / Bayern Munich | Italy / Germany |
| Atletico Madrid / Chelsea | Spain / England |
| RB Leipzig / Liverpool | Germany / England |
| Porto / Juventus | Portugal / Italy |
| Barcelona / Paris Saint-Germain | Spain / France |
| Sevilla / Borussia Dortmund | Spain / Germany |
| Atalanta / Real Madrid | Italy / Spain |
When will Champions League 2020-21 quarter-final games be played?
The quarter-final ties will be played across two legs. The first legs will be played on April 6 and 7, with the second legs being played a week later on April 13 and 14.
What about the semi-finals & final?
As well as the draw for the quarter-finals, UEFA will also complete the semi-final draw on March 19, so we will have a clear picture of the path to the final.
Wrapping up administrative formalities, a draw will also be held to determine the 'home' and 'away' teams for the final.
