To win the Champions League, teams have to beat the best clubs around Europe. But that simplicity doesn't take away from the buzz that builds around the knockout stage draws for UEFA's flagship competition.

As sides in the 2023/24 tournament seal their spots in the quarter-finals, the grim inevitability of surviving minnows having to face continental behemoths begins to set in.

That's all part of the magic, however, and fans around Europe will have their eyes glued to their nearest screen for the quarter-final draw.

Here's when the 2023/24 UEFA Champions League quarter-final draw will take place and how you can follow it.

The 2023/24 UEFA Champions League quarter-final draw will take place on Friday 15 March at 11:00 GMT, being held at UEFA's headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland.

The semi-final draw will also be held, meaning teams will learn their potential path to the final.

There are no rules over which teams can face others in the quarter-finals, so English sides can be paired together. The semi-final draw then plays out with four balls plucked at random, each marked 'Winners of quarter-final 1' to 'Winners of quarter-final 4'.

The first ball drawn decides who plays the first leg at home.

The first four teams to secure safe passage through to the Champions League quarter-finals were Bayern Munich, Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester City and Real Madrid.

After losing the first leg in Rome with an awful performance, the German giants had to come from behind on aggregate to secure a 3-1 win. Things were much more comfortable for PSG, who won both of their games against Real Sociedad as the Ligue 1 champions attempt to finally bag the Champions League for the first time ever in Kylian Mbappe's last season at Parc des Princes.

Manchester City's three goals in either leg saw off Copenhagen, while Real Madrid had to hold their nerve against RB Leipzig in a tie that finished 2-1 on aggregate.
