Chelsea will face Manchester City in an all-English quarter-final in the Women’s Champions League, while holders Barcelona were drawn against Wolfsburg on Friday in a repeat of the 2023 final.

Women’s Super League leaders Chelsea pipped City to the English title on goal difference last season and are on course for a sixth successive top-flight crown.

Barcelona, who came from two goals down to beat Wolfsburg in the final two years ago, are chasing a fourth European title in five seasons.

Arsenal, the 2007 champions, will play Real Madrid in the last eight while last season’s runners-up Lyon meet Bayern Munich.

Lyon are the record eight-time winners of the competition and were one of two teams to advance from the group stage with maximum points, along with Chelsea.
