Chelsea, then managed by Thomas Tuchel, went 3-0 up to lead the tie but goals from Rodrygo and Karim Benzema – the latter strike coming in extra-time – saw the Blues crash out 5-4 on aggregate.
Meanwhile, Man City manager Guardiola will face a familiar foe in former side Bayern – the club he won seven major titles with between 2013 and 2016, including three Bundesliga titles.
City and Bayern also have a connection through Joao Cancelo, who left the Premier League side to move to Germany on loan, with an option to make the deal permanent for around £60m.
Should Chelsea and City go on to meet each other in the Champions League last four, it will lead to six meetings between the two clubs in this season alone.
Both Premier League clubs were paired against each other in the third rounds of the FA Cup and Carabao Cup earlier this season.
