Draws and dates

Draws
Both quarter and semi-final draws are 'open' - there is no seeding or country protection at this stage of the competition so we can now draw teams from the Premier League. A draw is also made to determine the 'home' side in the final for administrative reasons.

Manchester City and Manchester United will not be able to play at home on the same night, nor on consecutive nights, following a decision made by the relevant local authorities. Therefore, should both clubs be drawn at home in the same week, the team having finished lower in the domestic league the previous season – in this case Manchester United – will be reversed in accordance with the UEFA Club Competitions Committee principles. Any potential reversal for the semi-finals, for the same reason, would be confirmed after the quarter-finals.

Dates
Quarter-finals, first leg - 9/10 April
Quarter-finals, second leg - 16/17 April
Semi-finals, first leg - 30 April/1 May
Semi-finals, second leg - 7/8 May
Final - 1 June (at Estadio Metropolitano, Madrid)

Barcelona
The La Liga champions finished top of our group before beating Lyon 5-1 on aggregate in the Round of 16.

Juventus
Won their group but looked in trouble 2-0 down against Atletico Madrid after the first leg of the Round of 16 but a Cristiano Ronaldo-inspired turn around saw them through, his hat-trick securing a 3-0 win in the second leg.

Liverpool
Second behind PSG in the group stage, held 0-0 by Bayern Munich at Anfield in the first leg of their Round of 16 tie but were much better in the second leg in Munich, winning 3-1.

Manchester City
Top of Group F and produced commanding victory over Schalke in the Round of 16, winning the second leg 7-0 for 10-2 on aggregate.

Second in their group and also looked in trouble after the first leg of their Round of 16 tie when they lost 2-0 at home to PSG and had Paul Pogba sent off, but staged remarkable comeback to win second leg 3-1 via a late penalty.

Porto
Impressive in the group - highest points tally of 16, five wins and a draw - and turned around a 2-1 first leg deficit to beat Roma 4-3 on aggregate in the Round of 16.
