Barcelona is clinging to the Champions League to consolidate the improvement shown in recent weeks and win a title this season, once La Liga EA Sports has become uphill, although the Catalans still have mathematical options to fight for the title.
The culés have a real challenge ahead of them: reaching the semi-finals of the Champions League, something they have not achieved since the 2014-15 season, when they ended up winning the orejona with Luis Enrique on the bench.
Barcelona has won the last two head to head: in 2012/13 and with Luis Enrique, in 2014/15, although few Blaugranas forget the comeback against the Parisian team in the round of 16 in 2016/17.
However, PSG clings to the victories obtained in the quarterfinals of the 1994/95 season and also to the last precedent, in the round of 16 of the 2020/21 campaign thanks to the extraordinary performance of Kylian Mbappé at the Camp Nou.
Mbappé is the greatest offensive threat in Luis Enrique’s team, who has designed a competitive team in all its lines.
The French team was runner-up in Group F behind Borussia Dortmund, but easily beat Real Sociedad in the round of 16. Meanwhile, Barcelona won Group H and then toppled Italian champions Napoli before reaching the quarterfinals.
The match between PSG and Barcelona, ??corresponding to the first leg of the Champions League quarterfinals, will be played this Wednesday, April 10, at 9:00 p.m. The meeting can be seen on television on Movistar and can also be followed live through the La Vanguardia website.
