If Barcelona hope to end an 11-year wait for Champions League glory, they must first overcome Atlético Madrid in the quarterfinals — a side that has eliminated them from the competition in each of their last two European encounters.
The Spanish rivals are no strangers to each other, with Wednesday's first leg marking their fifth meeting of the season. Barcelona's 2–1 victory over Atléti just four days ago was their third win against Diego Simeone's outfit this campaign, though Los Rojiblancos knocked Barça out of the Copa del Rey semifinals less than two months ago.
Barcelona face pressure to bounce back from that cup exit and push forward in the competition in pursuit of a coveted sixth European title. Atléti enter as underdogs once more in a Champions League tie, but that is historically where Simeone's squad thrives — and they are more than capable of causing a major upset.
Here's everything fans need to know about how to watch the first leg of this thrilling Champions League quarterfinal clash between Atlético Madrid and Barcelona.
