The 2013–14 UEFA Women's Champions League knockout phase began on 9 October 2013 and concluded on 22 May 2014 with the final at Estádio do Restelo in Lisbon, Portugal to decide the champions of the 2013–14 UEFA Women's Champions League. A total of 32 teams competed in the knockout phase. Round and draw dates UEFA has scheduled the competition as follows.

Round Draw First leg Second leg Round of 32 5 September 2013 9–10 October 2013 16–17 October 2013 Round of 16 9–10 November 2013 13–14 November 2013 Quarterfinals 21 November 2013 22–23 March 2014 29–30 March 2014 Semifinals 19–20 April 2014 26–27 April 2014 Final 22 May 2014 Format The knockout phase involves 32 teams: 22 teams which qualified directly, and 10 teams which qualified from the qualifying round (eight group winners and two best runners-up).

Each tie in the knockout phase, apart from the final, was played over two legs, with each team playing one leg at home. The team that scored more goals on aggregate over the two legs advanced to the next round. If the aggregate score was level, the away goals rule was applied, i.e. the team that scored more goals away from home over the two legs advanced. If away goals were also equal, then 30 minutes of extra time was played. The away goals rule was again applied after extra time, i.e. if there were goals scored during extra time and the aggregate score was still level, the visiting team advanced by virtue of more away goals scored. If no goals were scored during extra time, the tie was decided by penalty shoot-out. In the final, which was played as a single match, if scores were level at the end of normal time, extra time was played, followed by penalty shoot-out if scores remained tied.

The mechanism of the draws for each round was as follows: In the draw for the round of 32, 16 teams were seeded and 16 teams were unseeded, based on their UEFA club coefficients at the beginning of the season. The seeded teams were drawn against the unseeded teams, with the seeded teams hosting the second leg. Teams from the same group or the same association could not be drawn against each other. In the draws for the round of 16 onwards, there were no seedings, and teams from the same group or the same association could be drawn against each other.
