Chelsea have drawn arguably the toughest possible Champions League quarter-final opponents in the eight-times winners and holders, Lyon. In the other tie involving a Women’s Super League club, Arsenal will play Bayern Munich.
Chelsea finished the group stage with more points than any other side, after five wins and one draw. They will face Barcelona or Roma if they progress, making their quest for a first European title as difficult as it could be. Lyon scored 10 goals but conceded six in Group C, suffering a bruising 5-1 home defeat by Arsenal, and became the first side to pass 100 UWCL wins.
