The most anticipated quarter-finals match is here.

Two European titans meet on Wednesday when AC Milan host Barcelona at Giuseppe Meazza Stadium in the first leg of a quarter-final match in Champions League.

The match can be seen live with a subscription at FoxSoccer2Go.

AC Milan manager Massimiliano Allegri has defender Alessandro Nesta and winger Robinho back from injury, and also welcomes back Kevin-Prince Boateng, and Clarence Seedorf. Thiago Silva and Alexandre Pato are sidelined, and so is suspended midfield enforcer Mark Van Bommel.

Barcelona manager Pep Guardiola has defender Dani Alves in the starting 11, who is back from suspension. Barcelona are almost at full strength, with Carles Puyol at left back and Javier Mascherano at the centre back. Milan will need to have their attack in full force against such formidable defenders

The Catalans could use David Villa in the attack, but the Spanish star suffered a broken leg in December. Meanwhile, Cesc Fabregas is not in the starting 11.

AC Milan start Zlatan Ibrahimovic faces his former squad, in what should perhpas inspire the Swedish star. The last time AC Milan faced Barcelona at Giuseppe Meazza was on Nov. 23, and the Catalans defeated them, 3-2. Barcelona got the best of AC Milan in a hotly contested two-match contest, as the Catalans scored five goals, and gave up four.

Ibrahimovic scored for AC Milan in the last contest, but it wasn't enough to defeat a determined Barcelona squad. The Serie A squad will need to contain Lionel Messi, who has not slowed down from a hot start this season.

PREDICTION: Barcelona are very good at learning from their mistakes, and the Catalans should bounce back from conceding four goals in two games to AC Milan. Expect Ibrahimovic to be at his best, as the Swedish star would love to get back his former teammates. However, Barcelona are just too efficient and should pull of a close win.
