It will be difficult and we will need to have two good days against them to reach the semis.”</p>.<p><br />Juve director Pavel Nedved said: “Bayern are one of the hardest teams that we could have faced. We have to approach the tie positively.

Paris deserves to be part of the big party.”<br /><br />Nine-times winners Real Madrid will take on Galatasaray in a tie which pits Jose Mourinho, coach of the Spanish side, against his former Chelsea player Didier Drogba. Real are at home first. <br /><br />Real director Emilio Butragueno told Sky Sports: “We need to get a very good result at home because we know that their fans will make it very difficult there.”<br /><br />The first legs will be played on April 2 or 3 and the second legs on April 9 or 10. <br />Chelsea face Rubin<br />European champions Chelsea were left contemplating a long trip to Russia’s Rubin Kazan in their second leg following the Europa League quarterfinal draw.<br /><br />Lazio and Fenerbahce, who have both been in trouble with UEFA over fan behaviour, were paired in another tie while Tottenham Hotspur, the only one of the quarterfinalists to have won the trophy, face FC Basel with the first leg in London. <br /><br />The first legs will be played on April 4 and the second legs on April 11. <br /><br />Europa League quarterfinal draw: Chelsea vs Rubin Kazan; Tottenham Hotspur vs Basel; Fenerbahce vs Lazio; Benfica vs Newcastle United.<br /><br />* Malaga vs Borussia Dortmund <br /><br />*Real Madrid vs Galatasaray <br /><br />*Paris St Germain vs Barcelona <br /><br />* Bayern Munich vs Juventus <br /><br />Note: First legs to be played on April 2 and 3, second legs on April 9 and 10.</p>
