After a blip at the start of the season, Carlo Ancelotti’s side currently sit on top of the LaLiga table again and few would bet against them going on to impress in the Champions League once more this term.
Now they face a Mallorca side with whom they drew at the start of the campaign and who currently sit sixth in LaLiga under Jagoba Arrasate but were stunned by fourth-division minnows Pontevedra in the Copa del Rey last time out.
Barcelona await tonight’s winners, having beaten Athletic Club 2-0 in Wednesday’s first semi-final match courtesy of goals from Gavi and Lamine Yamal.
