Notes

1. Atlético Madrid were initially drawn against Bayern Munich.^[39]

1. Rayo Majadahonda played its game at Wanda Metropolitano, in Madrid instead of their regular stadium Cerro del Espino in Majadahonda because the Royal Spanish Football Federation have granted permission for a ground change to facilitate more fans at the match.
