The Copa del Rey might be the only domestic trophy FC Barcelona or Atletico Madrid can win this season.
The teams will meet Wednesday at Vicente Calderon Stadium in the first leg of the Copa del Rey (Spanish Cup) semifinals. Many expect the winner of this series to go on to win the competition, so the soccer world will be watching when these powers collide.
Real Madrid has opened a four- and ten-point lead over Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, respectively, in La Liga (Spanish first division), so the Copa del Rey has assumed increased importance for Wednesday’s competitors.
Barcelona will be without midfielders Andres Iniesta and Sergio Busquets, who remain sidelined due to injuries.
