After last week’s 6-2 victory in Madrid, Pere Romeu’s side scored half a dozen goals without conceding any in front of a sell-out Camp Nou crowd. It will be an eighth successive semi-final appearance for the three-time winners.
The only time they faced Bayern in the knockout stages was when this streak started in the semi-final of the 2018/19 season as they beat the Frauen-Bundesliga outfit 2-0 on aggregate. Barcelona reached the final of the competition in each of the last five seasons.
