London, April 9 - Barcelona, the most successful team in the Champions League this season, step back into the spotlight on Wednesday looking for their 14th European win of the season at the Stadio Delle Alpi against Juventus.
While their arch-rivals Real Madrid finally looked impressive on Wednesday after beating Manchester United 3-1 in the first leg of their quarter-final, Barcelona have been imperious in Europe all season, winning 13 and drawing one of their 14 games through the qualifying round and two phases of group play.
They now face a stiff test of that form, and of their dreams of European glory against Juventus, the current Serie A leaders, in Wednesday's quarter-final first leg in Turin.
