Real Madrid, Barcelona, Juventus and Bayern Munich are the four sides involved in today's Champions League semi-final draw.

The final four were decided after Real Madrid edged past local rivals Atletico, Juventus produced a typical Italian performance to stifle Monaco, Barcelona cruised against Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich quickly overcame fears that they would be knocked out by Porto.

The glamorous line-up sees last year's European champions Real Madrid up against three sides that are currently top of their respective leagues.

English interest ended at the last-16 stage, with Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester City all crashing out in disappointing defeats.

The semi-final draw takes place today, Friday 24 April, at Uefa’s headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland. It is due to start at 11am BST.

Just like the quarter-finals, the draw will be open meaning that all teams can face each other regardless of whether they are from the same country - meaning an El Clasico in the Champions League is a possibility.

There will also be a secondary draw, which will decide whether the winner of semi-final 1 or the winner of semi-final 2 will be deemed the home team in the final, merely for administrative purposes as the 6 June final takes place at Berlin’s Olympiastadion.

The semi-final first legs take place on 5/6 May and the second leg on 12/13 May.
