Follow the Champions League quarter-final draw live with the Premier League’s contingent down to three as European champions Chelsea are joined by Liverpool and Man City, who were beaten in last year’s final by the Blues in Porto.

Chelsea drew Real Madrid, Man City got Atletico and Liverpool will play Benfica in the last-eight, with Villarreal v Bayern Munich completing the schedule.

In the last-16, Jurgen Klopp’s side eased past Inter Milan despite losing the second leg at Anfield thanks to a stunner from Lautaro Martinez, while Pep Guardiola’s Premier League champions had far too much for Sporting, with Thomas Tuchel masterminding Chelsea past Lille amid off-the-field issues concerning the impending takeover of the club following sanctions from the UK government on Roman Abramovich.

The trio not only discovered their quarter-final opponents, but the route to the final in Paris as well, with the winner of Man City/Atletico Madrid facing Chelsea/Real Madrid in the first semi-final and the winner of Benfica/Liverpool vs Villarreal/Bayern Munich the other last-four clash.

The draw in Nyon, Switzerland, takes place at 11:00 GMT, you can follow live build-up and the latest updates from both the quarter-final and semi-final draw below:
