How does the Champions League draw work?

There will be no seedings for the rest of the tournament and there will also be no protection against being drawn against a team from your own country or a team you faced in the group stage. It is a completely open draw.

For the quarterfinal draw the eight teams are all in one pot and the team selected first will play the first leg of the quarterfinal at home and the team drawn second will play the second leg at home.

For the semifinal draw there will be four balls in one pot each marked “Winners of quarterfinal 1″ and so on. The first ball taken out in each pairing will see those teams play their semifinal first leg at home.

For the final draw it will be decided which team would be determined as the home team purely for administrative purposes.
