Barcelona vs PSG 2nd leg
The second leg kicks off tonight at Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys in Spain where PSG will be looking to overturn a 1-goal deficit. Barcelona have only a slim lead, and either side can realistically qualify for the semi-finals.
Five-time winners Barcelona are aiming to reach the Champions League semi-finals for the first time in five years.
“We’re not a team that will sit on our lead, we want to take the ball off PSG and win the game,” said manager Xavi.
“It’s the Champions League, it’s Paris, and a game in which no one will be holding back.”

Borussia Dortmund vs Atlético Madrid
Borussia Dortmund will welcome Atlético Madrid to SIGNAL IDUNA PARK in the second tie of their quarter-finals match where the German side will look to overturn their first-leg deficit.
The German hosts are bidding for a first Champions League semi-final in 11 years, while Atletico have not been there for seven years. Dortmund boss Edin Terzic hopes a sold-out Westfalenstadion crowd of 81,500 can make a difference.
“It’s unique. It’s regularly sold out and it has helped us countless times over the years,” he said.
“We need a good result against Atletico and we’re pretty sure our supporters want to make that happen and create a good atmosphere.
“So we want to pay them back.”
