Teams in Champions League quarter finals 2023: Clubs in March 17 UEFA draw image

The 2022/23 UEFA Champions League field will be halved once again over the coming days as 16 teams are whittled down to eight ahead of the quarter finals. 

Clubs that make it this far can't be blamed for beginning to dream about lifting the iconic trophy as they show their ability to beat the best of the best. 

But whether they can reach the finish line will also largely depend on their path through the quarter finals and semifinals, which will be made clear at the Champions League draw on Friday March 17.

Here are the teams that have qualified so far for the Champions League quarter finals in 2023. Any team can draw any of the others with geographic restrictions scrapped beginning at the quarter final stage.

How Champions League quarter final draw works

Unlike the Round of 16, the quarter final draw has no seeds. Any team can be drawn against the others, and teams from the same country can also be drawn against each other. 

The draw for the quarter finals, semifinals, and final will take all place on Friday, March 17 at 12 p.m. CET in Nyon, Switzerland.

The nature of the draw means that we will know each team's potential paths to the final in Istanbul.

When are Champions League quarter finals?

The first legs of the quarterfinals will be played on April 11-12 with the second legs just one week later on April 18-19, meaning a very quick turnaround between the home and away matches for the teams.

The semifinal first legs will then take place on May 9-10, with the return legs on May 16-17, before the showpiece final on June 10 in Turkey.
