Barcelona host Real Madrid in the second leg of their Copa del Rey semi-final on Wednesday night with Xavi's men leading 1-0.

Eder Militao's own goal separated the sides in the first leg at the Bernabeu last month and Wednesday's winner will face either Osasuna or Athletic Bilbao in the final.

Barcelona are having a brilliant season and they've already won the Supercopa de Espana when beating Real Madrid 3-1 in January. They also boast a 12 point lead at the top of La Liga with 11 games remaining.

Xavi's side are out of Europe following their Europa League exit against Manchester United so they're all in on La Liga and the Copa del Rey.

Real Madrid, meanwhile, are all in on the Champions League – and the Copa del Rey – as Carlo Ancelotti's men face Chelsea in the quarter-finals.
