Chelsea and Man City both land HORROR Champions League draws for quarters and have toughest routes to final
CHELSEA have landed a nightmare Champions League tie after being drawn against Real Madrid in the quarter-finals.
Manchester City also face a tough task after landing Bayern Munich.
And the English rivals could end up playing each other in the semis should they get through the last eight.
Chelsea will play Real Madrid, who defeated Liverpool in the last round, for the third time in as many seasons.
The Blues got the better of the Spaniards in 2021 before going on to lift the Champions League trophy under Thomas Tuchel.
But Real had their revenge last term on their way to yet another European victory.
Meanwhile, Pep Guardiola returns to the Allianz Arena to face old side Bayern.
City have just made light work of fellow Germans RB Leipzig with an 8-1 aggregate win.
And Guardiola will be desperate to get one over his old side.
The other quarter ties see Inter Milan take on Portuguese league leaders Benfica.
