 Real Madrid Team news:
 Real Madrid are coming here after their first defeat in a competitive game this season, 2-3 vs Sevilla two weeks ago away from home.
The Galactics have 24 points after the first 11 league matches, losing the leading position after the last defeat.
Now they are on the second place, three points behind Barcelona, but still with the best goal difference in the country, 26-7.
Their home record is really good, with four wins and only one draw so far.
More than that, Real Madrid scored 12 goals at home, conceding only one.
The good news is that Rafa Benitez has no missing player for El Clasico and he will field the best starting XI.

 Barcelona Team news:
 Fans could not have been treated to news better than their superstar Lionel Messi’s return from a knee injury suffered during a La Liga game against newly promoted Las Palmas in September. He has trained throughout this week and will most likely make a substitute appearance in the second half if his services are required.
However, Croatian midfielder Ivan Rakitic is most likely going to be missing from Luis Enrique’s plans on Saturday as he continues to recover from a calf injury he picked up during Barca’s clash with BATE Borisov in the Champions League. Rafinha (knee) remains a long term absentee from the squad.

Every season, Bayern Munich seem to run into at least one major rematch in the UEFA Champions League. Now, for the fourth year in a row, a Spanish giant stands between them and a trip to the Champions League final.

This time it is Barcelona, a team they humiliated 7-0 two years ago en route to the first European treble in German football history. Now Barcelona will get their chance at revenge, as well as a chance to take down the manager who left the club three years ago before taking a job at their German foe six months later.

Team News

Barcelona

Luis Enrique is set to name the same XI that beat Cordoba on Saturday, with Jordi Alba expected to shake off a slight niggle.

Bayern Munich

Pep Guardiola is not so lucky, with a long list of injuries and a few key ones heading into the trip to Spain.

Left-back David Alaba will be lucky to play a game again this season, whilst Holger Badstuber is out for the season.

Javi Martínez has only just made his return after being out for most of the season, it would be a surprise to see the Spaniard feature in this one.

Arjen Robben is out for the season with a calf injury whilst Franck Ribery is a doubt for this match having been troubled with an ankle injury.

Robert Lewandowski is also a doubt, with a broken nose.

Possible starting

Possible Barcelona Team Line-up :
Bravo , Pique , Alves , Mascherano , Rakitic , Busquets , Inesta , Neymar , Messi , Suarez

Possible Barcelona Team Line-up :
Nevuer , Martinz , Dante , Rafinha , Strieder , Gaudino , Lahm , Weiser , Schweinsteiger , Pizarro , Götze

Head To Head

Worryingly for Barca, they have never beaten Bayern without Guardiola in charge.

The 44-year-old’s triumph over his current employers came at the Camp Nou in 2009 when Messi, Samuel Eto’o and Thierry Henry were all among the goals.

The most memorable games between the two sides, though, were played after Guardiola’s departure in 2013. Bayern stunned the footballing world by winning the first leg in Germany 4-0, before hammering home their advantage thanks to a 3-0 victory in Spain.

In total, there have been eight games between the teams, with Bayern leading 5-1 overall.

Paris Saint-Germain head to the Camp Nou for the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie on Tuesday night knowing that they face a major battle to remain in the competition.

A persuading 3-1 triumph for Barcelona in the opposite meeting a week ago has put the hosts immovably in the driving seat, despite the fact that the Parisians have as of now demonstrated this season that they ought not be composed off at any stage.

 TEAM NEWS:

Andres Iniesta is available for Barcelona's Champions League quarter-final second leg against Paris Saint-Germain after suffering a back injury in the first leg in France. The midfielder was stretchered off in that match but he returned to training on Monday, as did defender Jeremy Mathieu. Brazilian international Dani Alves should also play after suspension.

PSG captain Thiago Silva misses out after failing to recover in time from the thigh strain he sustained in the first encounter on Wednesday, while the visitors will also be without injured midfielder Thiago Motta and the banned Serge Aurier.

However, coach Laurent Blanc will have the likes of skipper Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Marco Verratti available after both missed the first leg through suspension.

Possible lineups:

Barcelona: Ter Stegen; Alves, Piqué, Mascherano, Alba; Rakitić, Busquets, Iniesta; Suárez, Messi, Neymar.
• Out: Vermaelen (hamstring)

Paris: Sirigu; Van der Wiel, David Luiz, Marquinhos, Maxwell; Verratti, Cabaye, Matuidi; Cavani, Ibrahimović, Pastore.
• Out: Silva (hamstring), Motta (hamstring), Aurier (suspended)

Barcelona vs PSG Tips:

Barcelona is still battling Real Madrid in the domestic championship now that qualification in the semifinals of the Champions League is virtually assured. They take on Valencia over the weekend before locking horns with city rivals Espanyol and that's why they won't go for a lopsided victory over the French side. A narrow margin triumph would be more than enough to appease the fans.

PSG will have Ibrahimovic back in the starting formation as he returns from suspension and this gives them a decent chance of scoring in Barcelona. Three strikers will be sent upfront from the very beginning, hoping to take the lead early but the emphasis will be on bolstering their defenses.

Weekend results:

Barcelona 2-0 Valencia CF (Suárez 1, Messi 90+4)
OGC Nice 1-3 Paris (Bodmer 45+1; Pastore 39 63, Cavani 69pen)

Atletico Madrid team news:
Atletico coach Diego Simeone has positive injury news, with centre-forward Mario Mandzukic returning to training after an ankle problem and midfielder Raul Garcia expected to take part in Monday's session after recovering from a fractured arm. Mandzukic looks most likely to start, displacing Fernando Torres in the XI. At the back Diego Godin has sat out Atletico's last two La Liga games with a hamstring issue, but the key centre-half seems sure to start on Tuesday.

For the first time in months, boss Carlo Ancelotti has a full squad to choose from. Welsh winger Gareth Bale is back training with the squad after missing Saturday's 3-0 La Liga win over Eibar with a minor muscle problem. Centre-back Pepe returned from his hamstring injury by coming through 30 minutes against Eibar unscathed. Midfielder Sami Khedira and left-back Fabio Coentrao are also fit again but seem unlikely to feature at the Vicente Calderon -- where both started in Madrid's 4-0 defeat on their last visit in February.

Possible lineups:

Atlético: Oblak; Juanfran, Miranda, Godín, Gámez; Arda Turan, Tiago, Suárez, Koke; Griezmann, Mandžukić.
