Rules for draw

Actually, none exist right now. Teams from the same federation were not permitted to be paired against one another during the group stage or the round of 16. Yet once the quarterfinal round arrives, there are no restrictions. That suggests that Chelsea and Manchester City may face off in the following round. Any combination of pairings might be chosen on Friday, and by creating a bracket for the quarterfinals, we'll learn who might face each other in the semifinals.
