REAL MADRID HAVE been drawn with bogey team Atletico Madrid in today’s Champions League quarter-finals.

Real have already played their close rivals six times this season, losing four and drawing two.

Meanwhile, the conquerors of Chelsea and Man City respectively will meet, as PSG face Barcelona, while Bayern Munich play Porto in a repeat of the 1987 final, and Monaco come up against reigning Serie A champions Juventus.

Atletico are the Spanish champions and currently third in La Liga with Real seven points above them in second and Barcelona top of the league and one point above Carlo Ancelotti’s glamour side led by Cristiano Ronaldo.

Barcelona and PSG met in the group stages with both teams winning their respective home ties while they also met in the 2013 quarter-finals when the Spaniards prevailed on away goals after a 3-3 aggregate draw.

The French champions will be without suspended star striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic for the first leg after the Swede was given a one-match ban following his sending off in the last-16 victory over Chelsea.

Barca, who overcame Manchester City 3-1 on aggregate, are on track for a treble of Liga, Copa del Rey and the Champions League trophies as their high flying side ride on the crest of a streak that has seen them win 17 of their last 18 matches.

Porto won the first of their two European Cups in 1987 when they defeated Bayern, their quarter-final opponents, in Vienna.

Finally Serie A leaders Juventus, who won the competition in 1985 and 1996, take on 2004 finalists Monaco with the first leg scheduled for Turin.

First-leg matches will be played on 14/15 April with the return legs on 21/22 April.

The final will be played in Berlin on 6 June.
