The Champions League quarter-final has been relatively kind to Barcelona, who have been matched with Roma. Of all the teams left in the competition, the Giallorossi are the only side never to win a continental trophy.

The first leg will take place at the Camp Nou on April 4, with the return game at the Stadio Olimpico on April 10. Before the first game, the Catalans take on Sevilla in LaLiga and play Leganes between the Champions League games.

Eusebio Di Francesco's men have reached this stage courtesy of topping their group ahead of Chelsea and Atletico Madrid, before defeating Shakhtar Donetsk on away goals in the round of 16.

The dangerous Edin Dzeko scored in the home leg after impressive youngster Cengiz Under had netted in Ukraine. However, the main man for the Eternal City side is arguably goalkeeper Alisson, who is one of the best in the world and his showing in Ukraine wowed Europe.

He also played an important part against Atletico in the 0-0 draw in Rome and several teams are keeping close tabs on him. The only previous meetings have been group stage games, with the most recent coming in 2015/16, when the Blaugrana won 6-1 at home and drew 1-1 in Italy.

Their previous meeting dates back to 2001/02, when Barcelona were beaten 3-0 in Rome and drew 1-1 on home turf. This game will also see Monchi return to Spain as his embryonic Roma project comes up against one of the biggest tests they could face.
