The quarter-finals of the Women’s Champions League begins this week as the knockout stages get underway. A group-stage format was used for the first time this season with the 16 teams split into four pools of four teams. Home and away fixtures were played to determine the quarter-final line-up, with the top two teams advancing to the last eight.

Barcelona are the defending champions after they thrashed WSL winners Chelsea 4-0 in last season’s final, and they face Real Madrid in a Clasico that could see a record-breaking crowd for a women’s club match at the Nou Camp.

Arsenal finished runners-up to Barcelona in Group C and the WSL leaders face Wolfsburg this week, with their home match being played at the Emirates. Wolfsburg progressed alongside Juventus in Group A at the expense of Chelsea.

Elsewhere, Lyon and Paris Saint-German qualified for the last eight after topping Group B and Group D respectively, with Bayern Munich completing the quarter-final line-up.

All of the matches are available to watch on YouTube. Here’s how you can watch.
