Why United have a BIG chance against Barcelona

English Premier League outfit Man United face a very important Champions League fixture against Spanish La Liga outfit Barcelona in the quarter-finals tie which is their only hope of winning a title this season.

There is no doubt that the Red Devils are the underdogs going into the game but they are being helped by their magical qualification against French Ligue 1 outfit Paris Saint Germain which hints that they have got surprised in their bag to present and that will not be taken for granted by the Spanish side.

Argentina international Lionel Messi has been regarded as the major threat in the Barcelona team owing to his past records and his current form which has been stressed by pundits.

However, a record kept by the Argentina international is something that the Red Devils can bank on to ensure they scale through to the semi-finals. It has been observed that Lionel Messi has not scored a single goal in the last 11 quarter-final games for Barcelona, with his last goal against PSG in 2013.

This could be helpful to Man United as they could again stop the world player from scoring a goal which will be a big blow to Barcelona should others fail to deliver.
