The draw with take place this coming Friday the 27th February at approx 11am (UK).

The current Schedule is:

1st Leg: AWAY. 2nd Leg: Stamford Bridge.

Either side would present a very tough fixture for Chelsea, of course, especially doing it over two legs. Newcastle have hit some fine form in this competition and are also starting to look more of a force now after stuttering a lot earlier this season. Whilst the threat that PSG pose just goes without saying.

Chelsea have of course already had major joy against PSG lately, turning them over in the Club World Cup final to win that in the summer of 2025. So they will not be fearing either side here.
