With the quarter-final draw for the 2023 UEFA Champions League out, the fans will be witnessing some high octane clashes this year.

Real Madrid's path to another Champions League title will have to go through Chelsea in the quarterfinals for the second straight year.

Friday's draw takes Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti back to face his former club, which was eliminated by a goal from Karim Benzema in extra time a year ago.

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola also has a reunion with a former club. The English champions were drawn to face Bayern Munich, which has won all eight of its game in the competition this season and will play the first leg away from home.

AC Milan will first face Napoli, the runaway Serie A leader which is making its debut in the quarterfinals of the Champions League or the old European Cup whereas Inter Milan will be facing Benfica, returning to the country where it eliminated Porto in the round of 16.

The first legs will be played on April 11 and 12. The return games are scheduled for April 18 and 19.
