JAKARTA - The Champions League quarter-finals are set for Thursday, March 13, 2025. Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) will meet again with the England team.

Before reaching the last eight, Real Madrid had to meet Manchester City in the knockout playoffs. Meanwhile PSG had to go through Liverpool's tackles to make it to the quarter-finals.

Well, it turns out that the meeting with the England team is not over yet. Real Madrid will face Arsenal in the quarter-finals, while Aston Villa will be waiting for Aston Villa to block their way to win the Champions League title.

The determination of the quarter-finals was held after the tense Madrid Derby match was completed.

Los Blancos beat their city rivals in a penalty shootout in the round of 16 on Thursday, March 13, 2025 - after Atlatico's 1-0 win to equalize the aggregate score to 2-2.

Real Madrid will play the first leg of the quarter-finals in London on April 8 or 9, 2025. Then, the second leg match will be held on April 15 or 16, 2025.

PSG's prize for eliminating Liverpool's top seed was playing against Aston Villa with the first leg held in Paris. The winner in two legs will play against Arsenal or Real Madrid in the semifinals.

The situation led to a possible clash between Kylian Mbappe's club in the past and now.

Another quarter-final place was secured by Borussia Dortmund who got up to beat Lille on Thursday, March 13, 2025. They will meet their former player, Robert Lewandowski, because they will face Barcelona. Blaugrana became the team that hosted first.

Bayern Munich will host Inter Milan first at the Allianz Arena, which is also the venue for the final on May 31, 2025.

The elimination of Brugge and PSV - after Benfica and Feyennoord - made only five richest leagues in Europe that had representatives in the quarter-finals.

No team from outside England, Spain, Germany, Italy or France has reached the Champions League final since the Porto, coached by Jose Mourinho, won in 2004.

Meanwhile, UEFA will divide the total prize money of nearly 2.5 billion euros between 36 Champions League teams this season.

Payments that are 20 percent higher this season are expected to widen the wealth gap in European football.

England and Spain also have the opportunity to get a fifth place bonus in the Champions League next season, by sending tens of millions more prizes of money there.

Each quarter-finalist will earn 12.5 million euros. Clubs in the semifinals will get an additional 15 million euros.
