Barcelona look assured of a place in the semi finals of the Champions League, as they take a seemingly unassailable 4-0 to Dortmund on Tuesday night. Barca were utterly dominant from the start of the first leg and it was no surprise when the competition's top scorer Raphinha gave them an early lead after a cleverly worked free kick routine. Dortmund had keeper Gregor Kobel to thank for ensuring the game remained 1-0 until the interval, but there was little he could do to stop Barca's second half onslaught.
Veteran striker Robert Lewandowski nodded home a Raphina cross shortly after half time, before finishing off a swift counter attack to make it 3-0 on 66 minutes. The best goal of the evening came late on when another rapid Barca counter attack culminated in 17 yard old sensation Lamine Yamal calmly firing the ball home from the edge of the area.

Borussia Dortmund - Barcelona: Form Analysis
It has been a thoroughly miserable season for Dortmund and they are currently languishing down in eighth place in the Bundesliga table. However, they will have been boosted by Saturday's thrilling 2-2 draw at champions-elect Bayern Munich. That result has kept alive Dortmund's slim hopes of returning to the Champions League next season, but they are still six points off the top four with only five games remaining.
Barca chasing a famous treble
Saturday night's narrow 0-1 win at Leganes moved Barcelona seven points clear of Real Madrid in the La Liga table with just seven games left to play. Hansi Flick's side also hold a 0-1 first leg advantage in their Copa Del Rey semi final against Atletico Madrid, and with their Champions League semi place all be assured, it is shaping up to be an incredible season for the five times European Champions.

Borussia Dortmund & Barcelona Squad Analysis
Dortmund came through Saturday's 2-2 draw with Bayern Munich without picking up any fresh injuries, but they will still be without veterans Marcel Sabitzer and Nico Schlotterbeck on Tuesday night. In addition, striker Karim Adeyemi will miss the game through suspension after picking up a yellow card in the first leg. Given their need for goals,
Possible starting eleven: Kobel, Anton, Emre Can, Süle, Ryerson, Groß, Özcan, Brandt, Svensson, Guirassy, Beier.
Barca likely to be unchanged
Marc-Andre ter Stegen and Marc Casado remain long term absentees for Barcelona, whilst attacking midfielder Dani Olmo is unlikely to have received from the abductor problem that has kept him out for the last three weeks. Because of that, Barca are likely to stick with the same starting eleven that performed so impressively in last week's first leg.
Possible starting eleven: Szczesny; Kounde, Cubarsi, Araujo, Balde; De Jong, Pedri; Yamal, Gavi, Raphinha; Torres

Our Borussia Dortmund vs Barcelona Prediction
This should be a formality for Barca and even the most staunch Dortmund fan must be resigned to their fate after last week's first leg capitulation. That being said, we have spotted a decent bit of value in the betting markets, The bookies have Barca as big favorites to win in Germany, but we think they are likely to be in second gear throughout what could be a fairly low key contest. Because of this, we would not be surprised to see Dortmund get ar least a draw from the game. Our prediction for Borussia Dortmund vs Barcelona is: Draw.
