When will Chelsea play Real Madrid in the Champions League quarter-finals?

Chelsea will take on Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League quarter-final for the second season in succession. The two will meet at the Santiago Bernabeu for the first-leg, which is scheduled to take place on Wednesday April 12 at 8pm, as stated on Chelsea's website.

Graham Potter's side will then welcome the Spanish giants back to Stamford Bridge for the decisive game on the evening of Tuesday April 18. The Blues reached this stage by beating Borussia Dortmund in the round-of-16, while Los Blancos overcame Liverpool a week later.

Carlo Ancelotti will return to the side he guided to a domestic double in 2010, while goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois has been handed a nightmare reunion. Should the Blues knock out the holders, they face another tricky tie in the semi-final in the form of Bayern Munich or Manchester City.

On the other side on the draw, Inter Milan will face Benfica, while it will be an all-Italian clash with AC Milan drawn against Napoli. The winner of those games will face each other before making it to the final, creating a huge opportunity for any of those sides to reach it for the first time in years.

Any potential semi-final for Chelsea will take place in early-to-mid-May, while the final is at the unusually late date of June 10 in Istanbul. Here's a look at all of Chelsea's remaining fixtures for the campaign, including their potential Champions League dates.
