There are 16 teams who qualified for the knockout phase of the 2023/24 UEFA Champions League.
The seeded teams are those that finished top of their group; the unseeded teams qualified in second place. Seeded and unseeded teams were drawn against one another in the Round of 16.
At this stage of the tournament, teams from the same country cannot play against each other. Similarly, no teams who were in the same group can face each other in the Round of 16 (for instance, Real Madrid could not have been drawn against Napoli). Those parameters do not apply once we get to the quarterfinal stage.

After a two-month break from mid-December, the 2023/24 Champions League will resume with the Round of 16 stage in February 2024.
Teams play the first legs of their ties on February 13, 14, 20 or 21, with the return matches on March 5, 6, 12 or 13.
Away goals do not count in the Champions League after the rule was dropped before the 2021/22 season, so ties that are level at the end of normal time in the second leg go to extra time and, if necessary, penalties.
