Liverpool and Chelsea Face Potential All English Semi-Final Clash in Champions League

Liverpool could meet Chelsea in an all-English semi-final in 2020-21 UEFA Champions League, following the draws for Quarter and Semi Finals.

Jurgen Klopp’s Reds must first take on Real Madrid in the quarter-finals with the winner then advancing to face the winner of Chelsea’s tie against Porto in the semi-finals.

Both Liverpool and Chelsea will be at home in the second legs of their quarter-final ties.

Manchester City meanwhile face Borussia Dortmund in their quarter-final with a win potentially setting up a reunion with former player, Leroy Sane and Bayern Munich if the reigning champions defeat PSG in a rematch of last season’s final in the last eight.

Should Dortmund defeat Man City and Bayern beat PSG whilst Liverpool and Chelsea win their quarter-finals, we could well see a pair of all-German and all-English semi-finals.

Quarter-Final first legs will be played across 6-7 April 2021 with second legs taking place from 13-14 April.

First legs of the semi-finals will take place across 27-28 April with the return legs held across 4-5 May.

The Grand Final will be held on Saturday 29 May at Ataturk Olympic Stadium, Istanbul, Turkey with the winner of the first semi-final containing either Bayern, Dortmund, Man City or PSG designated as the home team.

Here are the Quarters, Semis and Grand Final draws in full.
