Barcelona vs Bayern Munich prediction: How will Champions League fixture play out tonight?
Barcelona face Bayern Munich in perhaps the biggest clash of titans in the Champions League quarter-finals.
The games are all taking place in Portugal from this round onwards and both of these teams will feel they have a chance of going all the way.
Although Barcelona still look reliant on Lionel Messi, the supporting cast are also capable of having a big say.
Bayern look like a well-oiled machine and much might come down to how quickly they can hit top gear, as the Bundesliga ended earlier than other leagues.

The match will begin at 8pm BST on Friday 14 August at Estadio do Sport in Lisbon.
