Champions League Roma – Barcelona
The Barcelona of Leo Messi and his companions already have a foot in the semifinals after 4-1 of the first leg, but the Rome of Eusebio Di Francesco will give everything for everything in the return of the Champions League quarter-finals scheduled at the Olympic Stadium. The Roma comes to this challenge after the disappointing knockout at home against Fiorentina for 0-2, the first leg did not play Radja Nainggolan and also in view of the return the Belgian player remains in doubt. Rick Karsdorp is always absent. The young Cengiz Ünder returns instead. The Barcelona of Ernesto Valverde is instead back from another important home win against Leganes in the league for 3-1 with a hat-trick of Messi. Jordi Alba, Paulinho, Samuel Umtiti and Andres Iniesta will be at the Olimpico after having rested, while Philippe Coutinho will not be able to play because he was already employed with the Liverpool shirt in the first part of the competition. In doubt Sergio Busquets.
