When is the Champions League draw? Chelsea and Liverpool set to find out quarter-final opponents

Chelsea came away 2-1 victors against Lille, 4-1 on aggregate, to secure their place in the Champions League quarter-finals. The Blues went into the game with a 2-0 head start thanks to Kai Havertz and Christian Pulisic's goals in the first leg at Stamford Bridge.

Despite an uncertain start that saw Chelsea fall behind to Burak Yilmaz's penalty, Pulisic eased the Blues fears as he equalised on half time before Cesar Azpilicueta netted in the second period from Mason Mount's cross.

Thomas Tuchel's side joined Liverpool, Bayern Munich, Manchester City, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Benfica and Villareal, who also qualified on Wednesday night. Those sides now enter the draw for both the quarter-finals and semi-finals of Europe's biggest competition.
