Berlin (dpa) - From 12 noon, not only the people of Munich and Dortmund are looking to Nyon for the draw for the quarter-finals of the premier football class.
There are no longer any easy opponents.
DRAW: This will take place this Friday at 12 noon as usual at the headquarters of the European Football Union in Nyon, Switzerland.
Defending champion Bayern Munich is in the lottery as well as Bundesliga contenders Borussia Dortmund, Real Madrid, Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester City, Liverpool FC, Chelsea FC and FC Porto.
There are no seeding lists or country protection - that is, anyone can catch anyone - so a new edition of the previous year's final, which Bayern won 1-0 against Paris, is just as possible as the Bundesliga Clasico.
FC Bayern are in the quarter-finals for the 19th time - no team in the premier class has made it.
The semi-finals will be drawn immediately afterwards.
So you already know who you will meet in the semifinals if you progress.

Nobody needs a German-German duel in the quarter-finals.
We'll just wait and see what the draw will bring. "
