Newly-crowned German champions Bayern Munich must repeat the heroics they pulled off against Porto in the last round when they welcome Barcelona this evening.

Trailing 3-0 following a magical late blitz from Lionel Messi last week, the task facing Pep Guardiola's team could not be much greater, with a place in the Champions League final at stake.

Bayern reversed a 3-1 deficit in emphatic fashion last month by racing into a 5-0 lead against Porto, but La Liga leaders Barcelona will offer a much greater test.
