The 2013–14 UEFA Youth League knockout phase began on 18 February with the round of 16 and concluded with the final on 14 April 2014 at Colovray Stadium in Nyon, Switzerland, to decide the champions of the 2013–14 UEFA Youth League.

## Qualified teams

## Format

Each tie in the knockout phase was played as a single match. If the score was level at the end of normal time, a penalty shoot-out was used to determine the winner (no extra time was played).
The mechanism of the draws for each round was as follows:
* In the draw for the round of 16, the eight group winners were seeded, and the eight group runners-up were unseeded. The seeded teams were drawn against the unseeded teams, with the seeded teams hosting the match. Teams from the same group or the same association could not be drawn against each other.
* In the draws for the quarter-finals onwards, there were no seedings, and teams from the same group or the same association could be drawn against each other. The draw also decided the home team for each quarter-final, and the "home" team for administrative purposes for each semi-final and final (which were played on neutral ground).
