Arsenal to face Wolfsburg in Women's Champions League quarters

Arsenal Women will face German club Wolfsburg in the quarter-finals of the Women's Champions League.

The Gunners are the only English club to have made it through to the knockout stages of the competition, after Chelsea suffered a shock group stage exit.

Arsenal could not be drawn against holders Barcelona in the quarter-finals having been in the same group as the Spanish giants, but will renew acquaintances with Barca in the semi-finals if both teams win their quarter-final ties.

Barcelona, who beat Chelsea in last season's final, take on Clasico rivals and European debutants Real Madrid in arguably the pick of the quarter-final matches.

Elsewhere, Bayern Munich will take on Paris Saint-Germain and Juventus face seven-time champions Lyon, with the winners of those two ties going on to face each other in the semi-finals.

The teams who finished as runners-up in their groups - Bayern Munich, Arsenal, Juventus and Real Madrid - will play the first legs at home, with those due to be played on March 22 and 23.

The return legs will then take place the following week on March 30 and 31.

The semi-final first legs, meanwhile, are scheduled to be played on April 23 and 24, with the second legs on April 30 and May 1.

The final of this season's competition takes place in Turin on May 22.
