Barcelona vs. Shakhtar

A walk in the park for Barcelona? The biggest worry for Guardiola’s team will be how this two-legged affair has an impact on their league season – a trip away to Shakhtar right before they play Madrid isn’t the best of preparations for a big game. That being said, Barcelona are form favourites and while they’ll be guarding against overconfidence, you don’t see the likes of Messi and Villa not winning this game. Getting injured in it? Well that’s a different story.
Shakhtar have done well to get this far, possibly a bigger success story than Tottenham for this year’s Champions League. Their best hope is to score a gaol at Camp Nou in the first leg and keep the tie in balance when they take it back home for the second leg. They’ll be happy to rough Barcelona up, but it’s ridiculously easy to lose your head and the game in the space of 10 minutes against the best sides, and Barcelona are the best in world football at the moment.
Predictions: Barcelona to win. Possible injury to a key Barcelona player.
