Chelsea Take on Wolfsburg in Women’s Champions League
Chelsea will face the two-time winners Wolfsburg after overcoming Atletico Madrid 3-1 on aggregate in the last-16.
The Blues have bad memories of facing Wolfsburg in recent years after being knocked out by the German side on three separate occasions, which included a semi-final defeat in 2017/18.
Meanwhile, Wolfsburg overcame Norwegian side LSK Kvinner 4-0 on aggregate in the round of 16.
If Emma Hayes’ side win the tie, they will go on to face either Rosengard or Bayern Munich in the semi-finals.
Manchester City Face Barcelona
Gareth Taylor’s team have a mouth-watering quarter-final tie against Barcelona to look forward to after sweeping aside Fiorentina with an 8-0 aggregate victory in the previous round.
The Spanish club also cruised to this stage of the competition with a 9-0 aggregate win over Danish side Fortuna Hjørring.
The reward for City should they get past Barcelona would be a semi-final tie against either Sparta Prague, Lyon or Paris Saint Germain.
The first legs of the last-eight ties will be played on March 23-24, and the second legs will take place on March 31 and April 1.
Meanwhile, the semi-finals are set to take place on April 24-25 and May 1-2, ahead of this year’s final in Gothenburg on May 16.
