An El Clasico clash awaits in the Women's Champions League as Real Madrid host Barcelona at the Estadio Alfredo Di Stefano in the first leg of their quarter-final on Wednesday evening.
Both teams have played each other three times in all competitions already this season, with Barca winning all three by an aggregate score of 10-0.
The Blaugrana are among the favourites to win the competition for a fourth time, having topped the league phase table by winning five of their six games (D1) and scoring 20 goals across those, conceding just three.
Meanwhile, Madrid had to qualify for the quarter-finals via the play-offs, and are dreaming of a first-ever Champions League title.
However, they will very much be the underdogs here, despite playing the first leg on home soil.
How the bookies view it: Barcelona big favourites
Barcelona are expectedly the big favourites with bookmakers to win, with best odds available of 1/5 at the time of writing. A draw can be backed at 15/2, while a Madrid victory is rated the most unlikely outcome at 29/2.
Recent head-to-head: Barcelona four-midable
Both sides met in the Copa de la Reina in February, where Barcelona were 4-0 winners away from home.
Ewa Pajor netted a brace, while Alexia Putellas and Salma Paralluelo also got on the scoresheet.
Players to watch: Back Pajor to score?
Caroline Weir bagged herself an assist in Madrid's 1-0 win at Eibar in Liga F last time out, and is a key player in their midfield.
Pajor has scored four goals in three appearances against Madrid this season, and was given a rest in Barcelona's most recent 7-1 thrashing of Athletic Bilbao in Liga F, making her fresh for this clash.
The Pole is available at 49/50 with Ladbrokes to score anytime.
Predicted line-ups
Brunn is expected to be Madrid's only major absentee with a head injury.
Ballon d'Or winner Aitana Bonmati (fibula) headlines Barcelona's injury list, alongside Laia Aleixandri (knee) and Mapi Leon (ankle).
Real Madrid: Misa Rodriguez; Eva Navarro, Maria Mendez, Lakrar, Yasmim; Dabritz, Angeldahl, Weir; Athenea, Linda Caicedo, Feller.
Barcelona: Cata Coll; Ona Batlle, Irene Paredes, Camara, Brugts; Vicky Lopez, Patri Guijarro, Alexia Putellas; Graham Hansen, Pajor, Claudia Pina.
Anything else catch the eye?
With Barcelona winning the previous three fixtures this season by an aggregate score of 10-0, we are expecting them to record another fairly comfortable victory here.
A win for the Blaugrana combined with Both Teams To Score (BTTS) – No is available again at 1/1 with bet365, which seems like a relatively safe bet to us considering it has already come through in the three previous H2Hs this term.
We also think that Barca could win by a considerable margin as they have done across the last three meetings and also in the Champions League.
The handicap market therefore appeals to us, and Barcelona to win with a -2 handicap is available at 13/10 with 10 Bet, which came through in two previous 4-0 victories against Madrid earlier this season.
