There were four return leg matches that could not be played in March 2020 and were thus moved to August. At least all of those matches could be played at the respective home clubs' grounds, but of course without spectators.

Manchester City vs. Real Madrid
Spanish giants Real may be the record winners of the Champions League, but without their captain Sergio Ramos they faced a difficult task away at Man City. Eastlands is hardly ever a busy place on Champions League nights, so the City players may have had an extra advantage. Real stuck to their usual travel arrangements, though using an A320 is rather rare for them, as bigger metal is usually called for in the knockout stage:
IB2850 MAD 1045-1145 MAN A320 EC-LUL (06/08/20)
IB2851 MAN 1300-1600 MAD A320 EC-LUL (06/08/20, ferry flt)
IB2850 MAD 2115-2245 MAN A20N EC-NCM (07/08/20, ferry flt)
IB2851 MAN 0130-0415 MAD A20N EC-NCM (08/08/20)

Juventus Turin vs. Olympique Lyonnais
With a 1-0 lead over Juventus, Lyon would have thought about good chances to make it to the quarterfinals. To lead 1-0 again after just 12 minutes though was almost beyond expectation, even if OL look like a team that could actually make it far in the unpredictable format that is coming up now. For their trip across from Lyon to Turin, they chose Amelia International and one of their EMB-145s:
AEH071 LYN 1100-1145 TRN E145 F-HRAM (06/08/20)
AEH072 TRN 0145-0230 LYS E145 F-HRAM (08/08/20)

Bayern München vs. Chelsea
Chelsea faced an uphill task in Munich, having lost the first leg 3-0 already. They got comprehensively beaten in the empty Allianz Arena in Munich. For their trip they chose JOTA Aviation with one of their Avro RJs, in this case RJ100 G-JOTS:
ENZ114P SEN 1230-1300 FAB RJ1H G-JOTS (07/08/20, ferry flt)
ENZ114 FAB 1500-1800 MUC RJ1H G-JOTS (07/08/20)
ENZ115 MUC 0045-0130 LGW RJ1H G-JOTS (09/08/20)
ENZ115P LGW 0215-0245 SEN RJ1H G-JOTS (09/08/20, ferry flt)
