Chelsea sealed their spot in the Champions League quarter-finals with a 2-1 victory over Borussia Dortmund in the Round of 16.
A goal from Raheem Sterling in the first half and a retaken penalty by Kai Havertz in the second saw the Blues complete the turnaround at Stamford Bridge after losing the first leg in Dortmund three weeks ago.
The win over the in-form German giants – who had won ten games in a row before making the trip to west London – has given Chelsea renewed belief that they can go on a deep run in this season’s competition.
And so with Chelsea’s name already in the draw for the next round, who exactly could they play in the quarter-finals? Here is their list of possible opponents.
Who could Chelsea play in the Champions League quarter-finals?
Chelsea will play one of the seven other Round of 16 winners in the quarter-final stage of the competition.

Other than Chelsea, the only other team to have qualified for the next round is Benfica, who demolished Club Brugge 7-1 on aggregate.
Wednesday’s action will see Bayern Munich and AC Milan defend narrow 1-0 leads over PSG and Tottenham respectively.
Next week sees Inter Milan travel to Porto with a 1-0 advantage, while Manchester City’s tie with Leipzig is evenly poised at 1-1.
Serie A leaders Napoli won their first leg 2-0 against Eintracht Frankfurt, whilst Liverpool must surely produce a miracle if they are to recover from their 5-2 deficit against defending champions Real Madrid.
With no seedings or restrictions for the quarter-final draw, Chelsea could play a fellow Premier League side in the last eight.
