Atletico to restart their Champions League quest against a Werner-less Leipzig

  /  autty

Atletico Madrid are one of four teams who have already booked their place in the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

Diego Simeone's side knocked holders Liverpool out at the last 16 stage and know face RB Leipzig in the last eight.

The German club will be without Timo Werner for the tie after the striker chose to join up with new club Chelsea instead of staying for the rest of the 2019/20 Champions League campaign.

If Atletico eliminate RB Leipzig, they will play either Atalanta or Paris Saint-Germain in the semi-finals.

None of the four clubs on Atletico's side of the draw have ever won the Champions League, but one of them will reach the final.
