Barcelona battle Eintracht Frankfurt tonight as they look to continue their quest for Europa League glory.
The Germans enter the quarter-final, first-leg encounter on a run of three straight draws, which included their successful navigation of their last-16 tie against another Spanish team in Real Betis.
Bundesliga clubs, namely Bayern Munich, have caused Barcelona problems in recent years, leading to three consecutive defeats against German sides.
But Xavi has so far given the Catalans cause for hope by turning around the Camp Nou ship following a tumultuous period on and off the pitch.
Pedri hit a late winner against Sevilla at the weekend to put Barcelona second in the LaLiga table, although their trophy hopes now fully rest on the Europa League with a huge gap to Real Madrid.
