Can teams from the same country play each other in the Champions League quarter-finals?

Yes, teams from the same country can indeed face each other in the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals. In the 2023/24 season, there was no restriction or protection preventing clubs from the same national association from being drawn against each other.

How did the Champions League quarter-final draw work?

The quarter-final draw for the UEFA Champions League involved the following steps:

  • Eight balls containing the names of the quarter-finalists (the clubs that advanced from the Round of 16) were placed in a central bowl.
  • These balls were shuffled to ensure randomness.
  • The first team drawn played its first match at home against the second team drawn.
  • This process continued until all quarter-final pairings were determined.

How did the Champions League semi-final draw work?

The semi-final draw for the UEFA Champions League was conducted as follows:

  • Four balls were prepared, each containing slips of paper indicating the winners of the quarter-finals (e.g., 'Winners of quarter-final 1', 'Winners of quarter-final 2', and so on).
  • These balls were shuffled to ensure fairness.
  • The first and second balls drawn determined the first semi-final pairing, with the first ball indicating the home team for the first leg.
  • This process was repeated until all semi-final pairings were determined.

Why was there a draw for the Champions League final?

A separate draw was held specifically to determine the 'home' side for the Champions League final for administrative reasons. The team drawn from the semi-final pairings (specifically, the winners of semi-final 1) would be designated as the home team for the final match.

In summary, these draws ensured fairness and unpredictability in determining the matchups for the quarter-finals, semi-finals, and final of the UEFA Champions League for the 2023/24 season.
