Manchester City will face Atletico Madrid in the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

Manchester City will face Atletico Madrid in the quarter-finals of the 2021-22 Champions League.

The Citizens are competing in the last eight of Europe's most prestigious club competition for the fifth successive season after beating Sporting Lisbon 5-0 on aggregate in the last 16.

Pep Guardiola's men will now test themselves against last season's La Liga champions Atletico, who eliminated Manchester United in the last 16, winning 2-1 on aggregate.

Man City, who have never locked horns with Atletico before, will host the first leg at the Etihad Stadium in the week of April 5/6 before travelling to the Wanda Metropolitano for the second leg in the week of April 12/13.

Should the Premier League leaders advance to the semi-finals, either current Champions League holders Chelsea or 13-time champions Real Madrid will await them in the last four, with the winners of City against Atletico to play the first leg on home soil.

Elsewhere in the quarter-final draw, Liverpool have been drawn against Benfica, while Bayern Munich will face Villarreal.
