The tie is brilliantly poised after a thrilling 2-2 draw at the Nou Camp last week. Marcus Rashford’s second-half goal quickly cancelled out Marcos Alonso’s opener for Barca, before United took the lead through a Jules Kounde own goal. But there was a further twist as Raphinha’s late equaliser gave Xavi’s team hope ahead of tonight’s reunion.
Barcelona will be without talented midfielders Pedri and Gavi following the first leg, while Manchester United’s Lisandro Martinez and Marcel Sabitzer are available having been suspended for the match in Spain.
But the heavyweight tie, which has the feel of a classic Champions League contest, is a huge moment in United’s season and should lead to a memorable night at Old Trafford ahead of Sunday’s Carabao Cup final against Newcastle.
