And then we meet again. Four days after their La Liga clash in the Spanish capital, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid will do it all again – this time at Camp Nou in the Champions League.
Atletico recently beat Barcelona 4-3 on aggregate in the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey, but the away leg ended in a 3-0 loss. They will need to show more defensive solidity on Wednesday if they want to keep the game alive ahead of the second leg.
Barca will dominate possession and take the game to Atletico, who will look to frustrate their opponents by slowing the pace and taking the sting out of their attacks. Patience will be key for Hansi Flick’s side, whose strength in the final third is likely to make the difference.
