Next Round

The winner of Manchester City vs Atletico Madrid will take on the winner of Chelsea vs Real Madrid.

Similarly, the winner of Benfica vs Liverpool will face the winner of Villarreal vs Bayern Munich.

For those who do not know, the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals will take place on April 5 and 6, with the return fixtures a week later on April 12 and 13. By default, there will be two matches on each night, taking place at the same time.

The final will take place at the Stade de France, in the Northern Paris suburb of Saint-Denis. France will host the final for the first time since 2006.

To recall, the final was initially scheduled to be played in St. Petersburg, Russia, on May 28 but later moved to France. UEFA said it made this decision as a result of “the grave escalation of the security situation in Europe”.
