The semifinals of the 2025-26 UEFA Champions League are now set. After a thrilling quarterfinal that saw the likes of Liverpool and Barcelona tumble out of the competition, eight teams remain in the quest for European glory.
Here's everything you need to know about the next Champions League rounds.
What are the semifinal matchups?
Paris Saint-Germain vs. Bayern Munich (first leg on April 28, 3 p.m. ET / 8 p.m. BST)
Arsenal vs. Atletico Madrid (first leg on April 29, 3 p.m. ET / 8 p.m. BST)
What does the bracket look like?
Here's where things stand with the semifinals now set.
How is the bracket shaping up?
Atletico Madrid's reward for their impressive 3-2 aggregate victory over Spanish rivals Barcelona is a date with Arsenal, the Premier League leaders, in the semifinals. Arsenal only edged Sporting CP 1-0 in the quarterfinals, so Diego Simeone's side will be optimistic about their chances of reaching their first Champions League final since 2016.
The winner will take on either PSG or Bayern Munich -- the defending champions or the presumptive Bundesliga winners. PSG convincingly dumped Liverpool out of the competition with a 4-0 aggregate win, but will they have similar success against a Bayern team firing on all cylinders?
Once again, we're poised for an exhilarating conclusion to the knockout rounds.
What are the remaining important dates on the Champions League calendar?
Semifinals: April 28-29 and May 5-6
Final: May 30 (Budapest)
