Atletico vs. Dortmund (Wednesday, 8.00pm)

Two unfancied contenders for the Champions League crown bid to gain a first-leg advantage in Wednesday's quarter-final tie, as Atletico Madrid host Borussia Dortmund at the Wanda Metropolitano.

Diego Simeone's side dramatically eliminated last year's runners-up Inter Milan on penalties in the last 16, while their Bundesliga counterparts were 3-1 victors over PSV Eindhoven.

We say: Atletico Madrid 1-0 Borussia Dortmund

Always a defensive force to be reckoned with in Champions League knockout contests on their own patch, Atletico have had the luxury of an extended recuperation period ahead of Wednesday's first leg, a welcome break amid their inconsistency domestically.

Dortmund's form book may make for more pleasant reading, but Terzic's side were toothless in their loss to fellow European hopefuls Stuttgart, and another narrow defeat could await the Bundesliga heavyweights as Atletico take a one-goal lead to Signal Iduna Park.

PSG vs. Barcelona (Wednesday, 8.00pm)

The French champions scrap with the Spanish champions for the right to earn a first-leg advantage in their Champions League quarter-final, as Paris Saint-Germain welcome Barcelona to their Parc des Princes base on Wednesday.

Luis Enrique reunites with his former employers on the back of masterminding a 4-1 aggregate last-16 win over Real Sociedad, while La Blaugrana were 4-2 victors over Italian champions Napoli.

We say: Paris Saint-Germain 1-1 Barcelona

Since Barcelona last took to the field at the end of March, PSG have endured two gruelling clashes in the Coupe de France and Ligue 1, so there is no question who the fresher legs will belong to at the Parc des Princes.

However, Parisiens boss Enrique rested several key names for the clash with Clermont with Wednesday's reunion in mind, and taking into account Barcelona's recent affinity for dogged defensive displays, we expect Wednesday's tense tussle to end all square ahead of a tantalising second leg in Catalonia.
