Who will Arsenal and Man City face in Champions League semi-finals if they make it through?

Reigning European champions Man City were rewarded for their victory over Copenhagen when they took on Real Madrid, live on talkSPORT 2.

Meanwhile, Arsenal beat Porto to face Harry Kane’s Bayern Munich for a place in the semi-final, live on talkSPORT.

The draw for the semi-finals has already been made, with the Gunners and Man City the ‘away’ team if they reach Wembley.

Who will Arsenal and Man City face?

The Premier League giants will return to action if they beat their respective opponents in the quarter-finals.

Arsenal booked their place in a first quarter-final since 2010 when they beat Porto in a tense penalty shootout.

Meanwhile, City secured a 6-2 aggregate victory over Copenhagen to stay in the race to retain the trophy.

A potential fourth and fifth meeting between the two clubs will be held on April 30/May 1 and May 7/8 before the final on June 1.

Obviously, if just one of Arsenal or City qualified, they would face the other’s opponents in the quarter-final, which would put the Gunners against Real or Pep Guardiola bringing Bayern together.

This latest draw could be preferable to Guardiola, who eliminated his former team en route to victory in the competition last season.

On the other hand, the Spaniard has already seen his team come unstuck against Arsenal three times this campaign.

The north Londoners triumphed over City in the Community Shield, before winning 1-0 in their first Premier League meeting in October.

Arsenal then banished their Etihad hoodoo as they found themselves in a goalless stalemate when they met in the reverse fixture last month.
