Atleti will be glad to have seen the back of March. In the hunt for a treble at the start of the month, los Colchoneros exited the Champions League to city rivals Real Madrid and picked up just four points from a possible 12 in La Liga to fall nine points behind leaders Barça. Only two goals in the last six minutes of the first leg have kept them level in the Copa del Rey, but the will to win Diego Simeone has instilled in his side remains undiminished. Julian Alvarez has 23 goals this season and will look to add to a tournament-high five.

Barcelona, meanwhile, continued their near-perfect start to 2025 with a 4-1 win Sunday's the Catalan derby against Girona. Unbeaten in 17 outings this calendar year in all competitions, drawing three and winning the rest, los Cules are in superb form, with Raphinha the pick of a brilliant bunch that includes Pedri, Gavi and the irrepressible Lamine Yamal. Atleti's first-leg fightback makes them one of those three teams to have denied the Catalans victory and Hansi Flick will want his side to get the job done in the capital as the 31-time Copa del Rey champions seek a record-extending 43rd final. Robert Lewandowski is now on 38 goals for the season after his brace against Girona.
