Barcelona go head-to-head with Arsenal tonight, in a massive Champions League quarter-final at the Camp Nou. With the tie level at 2-2, the match is expected to be a tight affair with plenty of attacking flair. Manager Josep Guardiola is adamant his side must play positive and “quick” football, if his side are to have any chance of progressing to the next round.

We’ll have to be very quick and keep our concentration until the end if we want to have an option of getting through the round,” the young Barca manager said on the club’s official website. “If we keep the ball flowing around nicely, playing lots of touches and basically keeping it simple, we’ll have a better chance of making the semi-finals.”

Barcelona had to settle for the draw in the first leg, after The Gunners displayed tremendous character to fight back from two goals down. Guardiola will be hoping his side refrain from slipping up this time around, especially as the semi-finals are within close reach.
