Barcelona vs PSG (agg 3-2) – Champions League quarter-final: Live score, team news and updates as Kylian Mbappe and company look to overturn first-leg deficit plus updates from Borussia Dortmund vs Atletico Madrid

It’s a big night for Ousmane Dembele.

The French winger returns to the home of his old club, although he never played at the Olympic Stadium, and he has a point to prove.

Dembele scored a magnificent goal last week against his former side, only his second of the season, and didn’t exactly play down his celebrations.

I think it annoyed the Barcelona fans quite a lot.

Nathan Salt, Mail Sport:

To any Dortmund fans who are seeking out omens, here’s one for you. Atletico Madrid have faced German opposition away from home in the European Cup/UEFA Champions League on 10 previous occasions, yet only managed to win twice (D1, L7), according to Opta.

They have lost seven of the eight matches during Diego Simeone’s time in charge (W1), including the last four in a row. Not a happy hunting ground for the Spaniards, who are starting with a back five here this evening.

Pete Jensen, Mail Sport, at the Olympic Stadium:

PSG were far more dangerous last week when Bradley Barcola came on at half time for Marco Asensio. This time he starts. No surprises in the Barcelona line-up with Jules Kounde (right-back) and Ronald Araujo (right centre-back) sharing the job of stopping Mbappe.

Barcelona’s biggest problem could be legs in midfield if the game runs long. Pedri and De Jong are not long back from injury and with Sergio Roberto and Andreas Christensen both suspended there is not much more than Fermin Lopez on the bench for Xavi in midfield.

Maybe the boss should get his kit ready then…

Finally, there is more than just one change to a side.

Achraf Hakimi returns to the starting 11 after missing the first leg through suspension.

Bradley Barcola also comes in to replace Lee Kang-In, it’s a big night for him up top.

It’s a night for just a singular change.

Xavi also makes just one with Pedri coming in for the suspended Sergi Roberto.

Andreas Christensen, who scored the winner last week, also misses the match through suspension.

Only the one change for Atletico Madrid too.

Samuel Lino, who scored in the first leg, is suspended so is replaced by Mario Hermoso.

Memphis Depay doesn’t make it.

Here we go then, the team news is in.

Borussia Dortmund make just the one change from the side that started the first leg as Felix Nmecha makes way for Julian Brandt.

There is some bad news though, first-leg goalscorer Sebastien Haller doesn’t make the bench after suffering an ankle injury.

Nathan Salt, Mail Sport:

I was in Dortmund for the previous round when the tie hung in the balance against PSV Eindhoven and I came away bloviating to friends and family about how special the home atmosphere is. Atletico Madrid are better than PSV, no doubt, but being down by only one goal, Dortmund go into this one believing they have the upper hand. The Yellow Wall is not to be messed with… trust me.

The fans are starting to flock in at Signal Iduna Park.

We know what noise the ‘yellow wall’ can make when it’s having its best day, it will need to be like that today.

I also spot a Jude Bellingham shirt in there, if only he was still a Dortmund player, they could do with a midfielder like him tonight.

Sebastien Haller loves the Champions League.

I’m about to share a statistic that shocked me and will probably surprise all of you as well.

Haller’s 12 goals in just 13 appearances in the Champions League – 11 for Ajax and one for Dortmund – means he averages a goal every 72 minutes in the competition.

His minutes-per-goal rate is the best in the history of UEFA’s premier competition among anyone to have scored at least five times.

Barcelona have arrived at the stadium earlier than normal.

It’s a huge night for them, especially after how poorly they started the season.

If they manage to win tonight, they will look like one of the more likely sides to win the competition.

Tonight will not be easy, though!

Kylian Mbappe may not have had his best game in the first leg but count him out at your own peril.

The French superstar loves an away day in Europe, especially in the knockout stages. He has scored 13 goals in 11 away games in the Champions League knockouts.

That record has only been bettered by two players, Cristiano Ronaldo with 23 in 39 matches and Karim Benzema with 14 in 34.

How PSG could do with him extending that record tonight.

It’s not only the Barcelona fans making noise.

The PSG supporters are making their way to the Olympic Stadium in numbers, and well, they are not doing it quietly.

Seeing the atmosphere like this already is making me extremely excited for tonight.

I can’t wait for it to get going!

Last week may have been Raphinha’s best performance in a Barcelona shirt.

The former Leeds winger ripped apart PSG at times and his second goal was simply special.

PSG will certainly be wary of him tonight, he could take the game away from them in an instant.

He looks ready for business.

Edin Terzic, Borussia Dortmund boss, speaking on Monday:

We need a good result against Atletico and we’re pretty sure our supporters want to make that happen and create a good atmosphere. So, we want to pay them back.

Diego Simeone, Atletico Madrid manager, speaking on Monday:

Now we’ll go to their stadium knowing that we’re going to find a strong team, a team with a lot of people who are going to take it to us, to attack. We will have to suffer and take advantage of the spaces.

Seeing these first elimination ties, in the four [quarter-final] matches, it’s not easy to win, so we’re happy to have won.

The Champions League really did serve us up some belters last week.

I’m once again feeling reminiscent, so let’s rewind to last week’s first leg between Atletico Madrid and Borussia Dortmund.

Diego Simeone’s side could not have hoped for a better start, racing into a two-goal lead in the first-half thanks to Rodrigo De Paul and Samuel Lino.

Their dominance didn’t last though and Dortmund came back strong in the second period, getting their reward when substitute Sebastian Haller halved the deficit with a fine finish.

The visitors then huffed and puffed in search of a late equaliser, but they couldn’t find it. They’ll be hoping that it comes early on tonight instead.

Once again, a tightly contested first leg means tonight could be tense.

Luis Enrique, PSG boss, speaking on Monday:

PSG have never come back to win after losing a first leg, but [Tuesday] is the day. After a defeat in such an important game, the days after the match were hard. It’s tricky to recover mentally, but the good thing about football is you have another game against the same opponent.

I thought we at least deserved a draw in the first match. We have to be better this time. We won’t hold back. That phrase does not exist for us, and we are convinced we will turn the tie around.

I think this game will be similar. I think there will be goals. The 3-2 scoreline means we have to go for the game.

What a game we were treated to last week!

It was a match that struggled to get going, but it burst into life in the second half, swinging one way and then the other.

PSG’s backline really struggled in the first half, especially Gianluigi Donnarumma in goal, and his mistake allowed Raphinha to send Barcelona into the lead.

However, PSG came out in the second period like a team with a point to prove and overturned Barcelona’s half-time lead within five minutes of the second half.

At that point, it seemed like Xavi’s side looked down and out but after some smart substitutions and sheer determination, they turned it back around with Raphinha netting a second and Andres Christensen heading in the winner.

I hope they serve up another thriller tonight!

Xavi, Barcelona boss, speaking on Monday:

It’s going to be a major football war. We are not a team that speculates; we will want to take the ball away from PSG and win the game. Hopefully, we’ll be at our best. They’re going to demand a lot from us.

I think it’s a good moment and I’m excited. We feel it already. We have to control our emotions, our temperament, it’s a game of heads or tails. We want to be in control with the ball, and we want to show the best side and personality of the team.

We need our fans to be loud because PSG will make us suffer, there’s no doubt about it, and we have to be a team to beat them. All of us, together.

While Atletico Madrid are ahead in the tie, it feels like they may have a tougher time holding onto their lead than Barcelona.

Diego Simeone’s side were comfortable with a 2-0 lead last week at the Wanda Metropolitano, but Sebastian Haller’s late strike changes things slightly.

Borussia Dortmund will feel that with their home crowd behind them, they can turn the tie around. When the yellow wall are on it, Signal Iduna Park becomes a cauldron of noise.

Both Dortmund and Atletico are desperate to reach their first semi-finals in 11 years and seven, respectfully.

This one is tough to call.

If tonight’s match between Barcelona and PSG is anything like last week, we are in for a treat.

Xavi’s side come into tonight with a slender one-goal lead after their comeback in Paris last week and are on a 13-match unbeaten streak since the Spaniard announced he was leaving the club in the summer.

The five-time winners last reached the semi-finals in 2018-19, where they met Liverpool – we all know what happened there – and look set to make the last four.

However, it’s not going to be easy. PSG showed their strength at times last week and still have the potent Kylian Mbappe, who surely won’t perform as poorly as he did last week.

I’m envisioning more goals in this tie, these two always serve up a cracker.

Has it been a week already?

The road to London is really starting to heat up, it will be the end of the line for two teams in the Champions League tonight, but which ones.

Barcelona simply have to avoid defeat tonight to make their first Champions League semi-final in five years, their comeback win in Paris has them in a strong position to knock the French champions out.

The Catalonians are not the only Spanish side who have one foot in the semi-finals, Atletico Madrid travel to Borussia Dortmund with a one-goal advantage.

With both ties so tightly contested, it’s set to be another action-packed night of European football’s premier competition.

Strap yourselves in, it’s time to get going.
