The favourites to win the Europa League, Barcelona, are in action in the quarter-finals on Thursday night - and they face German opposition in Eintracht Frankfurt.

In the Bundesliga, Eintracht have been performing well of late but sit in ninth and need a big end to the campaign if they are to seal a return to European football next year.

Barcelona, however, have overcome a dreadful start to the season and are revitalised under Xavi Hernandez, moving up into second place in LaLiga with a weekend 1-0 win over Sevilla - they’re looking good for a return to the Champions League in 2022/23.

Before then, though, silverware is up for grabs in this competition and the two clubs know victory over two legs here will set them up for a semi-final against West Ham or Lyon.
