This means that teams from the same group or the same association can be drawn against each other. As the draws for the quarterfinals and semi-finals are held together before the quarterfinals are played, the identity of the quarter-final winners is not known at the time of the semi-final draw.

A separate draw is held following quarter-final and semi-final draws to determine which semi-final winner is designated as the “home” team for the final (for administrative purposes as it is played at a neutral venue).
