Champions League Draw

Chelsea will play Fenerbahce in the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League, and are away in the first leg, to be played on Wednesday, 2 April. And the second leg at Stamford Bridge will be played on Tuesday 8 April (which effectively means I will fail in my exam on 9th April). Chelsea have never played the Turkish champions before and the club, and the fans are happy with the draw. The full draw is:

Arsenal v Liverpool
Roma v Manchester United
Schalke v Barcelona
Fenerbahce v Chelsea

Should we progress past Fenerbahce, we will play the winners of Arsenal and Liverpool. The first leg of the semi-finals will be on 22 and 23 April, and the second leg will be the 29 or 30 April. If we reach the semis the second leg will be played at Stamford Bridge.

And what makes me more happy is that the Gunners and Liverpool play against each other thrice in 7 days, twice in EPL, and once in UCL. Liverpool's interesting week is preceded by a match against Everton, challengers to their UCL spot, and succeeded by a match against Manchester United. United would find Roma a far better team than last time, and lets hope for an upset there. I believe Barcelona would go through to the next round, though not that easily. And a chance for Grant to prove what he's got and what Mourinho hasn't if a Chelsea-Liverpool semi comes up.
