Chelsea will play Real Madrid in the Champions League quarter-finals 2022-23, while Manchester City face Bayern Munich in a blockbuster clash.

Graham Potter’s Blues were drawn against the holders Madrid in what will be a repeat of the 2021-22 quarter-final. Arguably the tie of the round is City against Bayern, where Pep Guardiola will come up against his former club. It is an all-Italian tie between six-time winners Milan and Serie A high-flyers Napoli, while 2010 winners Inter will also take on Benfica, who blew away Club Brugge in the last 16.

Inter vs Benfica

Manchester City vs Bayern Munich

Milan vs Napoli

CHAMPIONS LEAGUE SEMI-FINAL DRAW:

Milan or Napoli vs Inter or Benfica

Real Madrid or Chelsea vs Manchester City or Bayern Munich

Friday’s draw also saw the potential opponents for the upcoming semi-finals. There was no luck for either Premier League side as they were placed in the same part of the draw alongside European giants Madrid and Bayern. That result does mean, though, that there is a possibility of an all-Milan semi-final, while any one of Milan, Napoli, Inter or Benfica will be guaranteed a place in the final.

The first legs of the quarter-final matches will take place on April 11 and 12, with the return fixtures arranged a week later on April 18 and 19. The semi-final first legs are then scheduled for May 9 and 10, before the return legs on May 16 and 17. All eight teams will be vying for a place in the final in Istanbul, which takes place on June 10.
