European heavyweights set for battle

By Chris Dinsdale

April 4, 2025 - The quarter-finals in the UEFA Champions League take place across Europe, as the knockout stages continue. Despite the introduction of a new league phase designed to challenge the perennial elite, familiar rivals dominate the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals, including Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Barcelona.

The 70th season of Europe's elite club competition, and the 33rd since it was renamed the UEFA Champions League, this is the first under the new format. It kicks off on 9 July 2024 with the qualifiers, and runs until the final on Saturday May 31, 2025 at Allianz Arena in Munich, Germany.

Real Madrid are defending champions having defeated Borussia Dortmund in the 2024 final. 

The UEFA Champions League is contested by the highest ranked teams of the strongest UEFA national associations. It is the top club competition in European football and one of the most prestigious tournaments in the world. The Champions League final is the most watched annual sporting event worldwide.
