Champions League Quarter finals first leg.
So today I just wanted to write a very short post about the fixtures coming up today. As we all know (hopefully) Atletico Madrid are playing against Barcelona at the Camp Nou, and Sl Benfica are playing against Bayern Münich at the Allianz Arena. The match most people will probably watch, is undoubtedly Barcelona vs Atletico Madrid. It's a very strong battle with the two spanish teams that have had a great season and are playing 1st and 2nd in the league.
When we talk about the form for the whole season, Barcelona must be favourites. But the last five league games haven't gone as expected for Barcelona. They fell with a 2-0 lead to 2-2 at El Madrigal against Villareal and lost at home against their bitter rivals Real Madrid in a Clasico that Finished 2-1 to Real Madrid. But we all know what a great team they have. With the best trio in history (as said by many people) and a very dominating midfield and strong defense Barcelona look to win at the Camp Nou and get through to the Semi-Finals as Favourites. But it's not a tough oppsition they are facing. Can the so called "greatest trio in history" (the "MSN") get past Atletico's strong defense of Godin, Felipe Luis and Juanfran. And can they keep Griezman and Correa back from scoring. Koke has also showed himself very succesful in the midfield.
In my opinion I think Barcelona will win at home, but can they make it good enough away. It's a very tight game, but there will be only one winner.
As for the game between Benfica and München, Bayern are strong favourites, even though Sl Benfica have been in great form lately. But a team at Bayerns level should be able to beat Benfica pretty easily.
