Inter's clash with Getafe is one of two ties, along with Sevilla vs. Roma, where the first leg was postponed, and will now be a one-off tie. The winners of Inter vs. Getafe will meet either Bayer Leverkusen or Rangers, with the German side having won the first leg 3-1 away.

United and Inter, the two favourites for the competition, were in different halves of the draw. It means they cannot meet until the final, with United facing the possibility of an-all English affair against Wolves or a clash with record winners Sevilla in the semifinals.

Due to the unprecedented stoppage brought upon by the global coronavirus crisis, the tournament will be formed of one-off matches in Germany from Aug. 5, with the final on Aug. 21, which will take place at Stadion Koln in Cologne.

The other games will take place in the MSV Arena in Duisburg, Dusseldorf Arena in Dusseldorf and AufSchalke in Gelsenkirchen.. Originally, the final was supposed to take place in the Polish city of Gdansk, which will now host it in 2021.
