The Champions League quarter-final draw will take place on Friday, March 18 at 11am UK time, with the balls being drawn out at UEFA’s headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland. The semi-finals will be drawn at the same time, meaning clubs and fans can plot out their potential route to the Paris final.
The Europa League quarter-final and semi-final draws will follow the Champions League ones in the same venue at 12pm UK time, with the same stage of the Europa Conference league starting at 12.30pm.
You will be able to follow all three draws across Sky Sports’ digital platforms.
