Barcelona is in seventh heaven against Atletico Madrid, but anything less than a great eight will equate to disaster.
Atletico Madrid hosts Barcelona on Wednesday at Vicente Calderon Stadium in the second leg of their UEFA Champions League quarterfinal series. Barcelona enters the contest with a 2-1 lead, thanks to last week’s first-leg victory, and another positive result would put the defending European champions into the semifinals of the competition for the eighth time in the last nine seasons.
Barcelona head coach Luis Enrique has led his team to victory in each of the seven games it has played against Atletico Madrid since the beginning of last season. The eighth Enrique vs. Diego Simeone encounter is bound to be both competitive and dramatic.
Atletico Madrid striker Fernando Torres will watch from the stands as he serves a one-game Champions League suspension.
Barcelona should field its familiar world-beating lineup, but that doesn’t assure victory against Simeone’s determined group.
