Barcelona: Team News

Another challenge awaits for Barcelona, and this time here they have not a less fearsome rival. As the first leg finished 3-0 not in their favour, Messi and Co. will have to score three goals at the least so as to stand any chance to advance. In that way, Barca should be playing a very cautious football in the back and try to unlock Buffon's' goal first.

In the space between the two Champions league tie matches against Juve, Barcelona performed a round match of LaLiga, having beaten fierce Real Sociedad with 3-2 on the scoresheet. And now it must be followed by a much more intense game that will resolve the fate of Luis Enrique's team's participation in the 2017 Champions league competition.

Juventus: Team News

Paulo Dybala, who was the man of the match in Turin last Tuesday, may not make his appearance for the return game in Spain because he badly sprained his ankle at the weekend. The impressive 3-0 win at home has inspired the team and its aficionados to avenge the Champions league final loss in 2015, when Barca won away the cup, with 3-1 beating "The Zebras".

Four days later the home win over the Spanish, Juventus went on a visit to Pescara where they pulled off an additional collection of three points to the tally, winning 0-2 as Gonzalo Higuain have added up 2 extra goals to his 23-goal score so far. When assuming the situation "The Old Lady" has in domestic Serie A, is that what Max Allegri should be concerned about least of all, indeed, as his managed team is 8 points away from AS Roma, and there're six rounds left to lift their regular trophy.

Possible starting lineups of the teams:

Barcelona: Marc-Andre ter Stegen - Jeremy Mathieu, Gerard Pique, Samuel Umtiti - Ivan Rakitic, Sergio Busquets, Andres Iniesta, Sergi Roberto - Neymar, Luis Suarez, Lionel Messi (3-4-3 formation)

Juventus: Gianluigi Buffon - Dani Alves, Leonardo Bonucci, Giorgio Chiellini, Alex Sandro - Miralem Pjanic, Sami Khedira - Juan Cuadrado, Paulo Dybala, Mario Mandzukic - Gonzalo Higuain (4-2-3-1 formation)

Missing players of Barcelona and Juventus:

Barcelona: Aleix Vidal, Rafinha, Arda Turan, Javier Mascherano.

Juventus: Marko Pjaca, Paulo Dybala (May not play).

Barcelona - Juventus Head-to-Head Stats:

Despite the Champions league final in 2015 and the recent 3-0 win to Juventus, the sides met back in 2013 when they had to determine a semifinalist in the quarter-finals of 2012/13 Champions league activity. Just then both of their legs finished a 1-1 draw, and in the extra times Marcelo Zalayeta made his team qualify scoring at 114's minute of the match.

Conclusion and Match Preview:

First of all, prior to the second leg it should mentioned the defence work that Juventus maintain game after game improving gradually, and they have kept a clean sheet in 7 of their last 9 matches of the UEFA Champions League, which proved that Barca isn't the case, too. Nevertheless, in return for that, the Catalan club can produce the most scoring performance in both the Champions league and LaLiga tournaments this season, averaging 4.2 goals scored per game in the CL and 3.1 home goals scored in the Primera Division.

With given all the facts and slight possibility of repetition of the one that happened six weeks ago to Paris SG, we can surely be determined that Barcelona will be doing their best to win it over and not to get any in their goal. While 3 goals to score is rather a challenging task for the hosts, especially against the solidest defence team at the present.
