Chelsea to face Porto in Champions League in neutral Spain

<p>NYON, Switzerland &mdash; Chelsea and Porto will play both legs of the Champions League quarterfinals in neutral Spain because of travel restrictions related to the coronavirus pandemic.</p>
<p>UEFA said Tuesday the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán Stadium in Seville will stage the games on April 7 and 13. The venue is the home of Sevilla and hosted Champions League games earlier this season.</p>
<p>Porto is technically the home team for the first leg. UEFA has previously said the away goals rule will apply even when games are played at neutral venues.</p>
<p>Because of travel limits between England and Portugal, Arsenal and Benfica were previously forced to play in Rome and Athens when they met in the Europa League.</p>
