Both legs of the Champions League quarter-final between Portuguese club Porto and Premier League side Chelsea will be played in Seville, Spain, due to COVID-19 restrictions, UEFA confirmed on Tuesday. The matches will be played at Sevilla’s Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan stadium, with the first leg on April 7 and the other one on April 13.
There’s a rule sanctioned by the UK Government that states players will have to stay in quarantine for 10 days. Earlier Portugal was on the Red List of the UK government, but it is being reported that everything is under control and the restrictions have been lifted.
Also, Spain reducing restrictions this week has made it quite easier for people entering the country from the UK for certain reasons, including participants of high-level sporting events.
Chelsea has already played at the Sanchez Pizjuan Stadium this season, beating Sevilla 4-0 in a group game in December.
The stage is set for the matches between Chelsea & Porto, Which team are you guys rooting for.
