My dear Barcelona should step up their game in this 2nd leg match against Arsenal as they lost the first leg match.   But they may have a hard time keeping their defensive line tight and intact without the suspended Gerard Pique and skipper Carles Puyol , who has still not recovered from his knee injury L

Arsenal’s key players, captain Cesc Fabregas and goal-scorer Robin van Persie are yet to confirm if they will be fit enough to play in the match.  But Alex Song, Theo Walcott and goal keeper Łukasz Fabiański are definitely out due to injuries.

Messi, Iniesta, David Villa and Xavi please work your magic and score lots and lots of goals…


Arsenal: 2
Barcelona: 1

For the win:
Arsenal:
  • a draw will qualify them to the next round
  • a 2 – 3 score in favor of Barca (aggregate score will be a tie but they’ll have more away goals)
  • they’ll be alright as long as Barca will not score more than two goals than they do
Barcelona
  • at least 2 goals more than Arsenal in this match
  • a 0 – 1 score in Barca’s favor will advance them to the next round as they have an away goal in the last match
  • Barca should prevent Arsenal from scoring a lot of away goals in this match
Stadium: Camp Nou (Barca's home turf)

Highlighted in yellow means that that team will proceed to the Quarter finals.  Pink means the aggregate score as well as the number of away goals are a tie, so I dunno, maybe they'll do extra time, shoot out or coin toss?
