Strong line-up as ever from Barcelona as they seek to become the first side to retain the European Cup since 1990. A reminder that they lead 2-1 from last week's first leg at the Nou Camp, Luis Suarez scoring twice after Fernando Torres' opener (and red card). Finely poised at the Vicente Calderon.   fabfa4f7-39fb-4640-b15b-ed95997aff47.jpg

Robert Lewandowski and Mario Gotze start on the bench for a Bayern side who could yet face Pep Guardiola's future employers, Manchester City, in the last four.

The teams stride out in Spain, 2014 finalists Atletico Madrid trailing holders Barcelona 2-1. As with last week's first leg at Camp Nou, both sides are in their change kits, as ordered by Uefa. Quite.
