EUROPA LEAGUE QUARTER FINAL FIXTURES
Braga v Shakhtar Donetsk
Villarreal v Sparta Prague
Athletic Bilbao v Seville
Borussia Dortmund v Liverpool
The major talking point is Liverpool’s quarter final tie with Dortmund – it’s the draw the Jurgen Klopp didn’t want. It is indeed a tough draw, judging by the current form of Dortmund and the way they dealt with Tottenham in the last 16.
Elsewhere, Athletic Bilbao face Seville in an all Spanish affair, while Villarreal face Sparta Prague.
