Standing in Arsenal’s way of reaching successive Champions League semi-finals is a Sporting side that produced the comeback of the round to end Bodo/Glimt’s fairytale run in Europe.

Sporting overturned a 3-0 first-leg deficit to progress 5-3 on aggregate after extra time, setting up a quarter-final showdown against Arsenal and a reunion with former striker Viktor Gyokeres.

Should Arsenal get past Sporting, they will face a semi-final against either Barcelona or Atletico Madrid after they overcame Newcastle and Tottenham respectively.

Elsewhere, Liverpool will take on holders PSG in the quarter-finals in a repeat of last season’s last-16 showdown, where the French side progressed on penalties en route to claiming a first-ever Champions League title.

The winners of that game will set up a mouth-watering semi-final against either Real Madrid or Bayern Munich in what is arguably the standout quarter-final tie.

Champions League quarter-final first-leg matches are scheduled to be held on April 7/8, with the return fixtures taking place a week later.
