Guardiola aiming to break through Atlético wall


Josep Guardiola is preparing for his last UEFA Champions League home game with Bayern but he is planning for one last hurrah in Milan later this month – but it will not be easy.


  • Saúl Ñíguez scored only goal as Atlético edged last week's first leg
  • Atlético have won their last seven games and are 602 minutes without conceding
  • Bayern have lost just twice in 23 previous home meetings with Spanish sides
  • The visitors are on a seven-match run of victories
  • Clubs have met just once before, Bayern winning 1974 final in a replay

Possible lineups
Bayern
: Neuer; Lahm, Martínez, Boateng, Alaba; Alonso, Vidal; Costa, Ribéry; Müller, Lewandowski.
Out: Robben (groin), Badstuber (ankle)
Doubtful: none
Atlético: Oblak; Juanfran, Giménez, Godín, Filipe Luís; Saúl, Gabi, Augusto, Koke; Griezmann, Ferando Torres.
Out: Tiago (broken leg)
Doubtful: none

Franck Ribéry is fit
Josep Guardiola, Bayern coach
We mustn't think about how many goals we must score. We need think first about defending well and controlling the game. We want possession and we want goals. Atleti defend very well, but they are also going good up front. It is complicated to play a team like them. They know each other so very well. We will create chances, if perhaps not too many.
It will be my last game in the Champions League here in Munich and I have always been treated absolutely wonderfully. In Germany you play a little differently, and I tried to adapt some things. I have learned a lot here. We have achieved a lot during my time here, but it is always really difficult to make the final of this competition.


Head-to-head: Philipp Lahm v Koke

Diego Simeone, Atlético coach
Football is a fantastic sport and there's a variety of ways to play it, depending on the players at your disposal. Our work over the last few years is paying dividends now. We have experienced guys mixed with some new players and they are all really great to work with them. That is reflected by our results.
We were sharp in the first leg and we will see how sharp we are tomorrow; and how sharp Bayern are. Every game is different. We want to win, that's our plan. We want to play well and enjoy our success. But above all, what matters most is that we make the final.

Jérôme Boateng returns
Weekend resultsBayern München 1-1 Mönchengladbach (Müller 6; Hahn 72)
Bayern must wait until next weekend to seal their fourth successive Bundesliga title after this draw and Borussia Dortmund's 5-1 victory against Wolfsburg cut their advantage to five points with two games left. Recovered from a groin injury, centre-back Jérôme Boateng made his first appearance for Bayern since 22 January, replacing the rested Javi Martínez.
Atlético Madrid 1-0 Rayo Vallecano (Griezmann 55)
Antoine Griezmann scored less than 60 seconds after stepping off the bench as Atlético narrowly overcame their Madrid neighbours to record a seventh straight win in all competitions. Simeone's team, level on 85 points with leaders Barcelona, go into their semi-final second leg against Bayern having kept a clean sheet in each of their last six games.

Bayern beat Atlético in '74 final
Reporter's view: Jordan Maciel (@UEFAcomJordanM)
After failing to score an away goal in Madrid, Bayern have it all to do if they are to avoid semi-final elimination by Spanish opposition for the third season running. Atlético shine brightest when they are the underdogs, but should be considered favourites to reach the Milan final, especially if they score in Munich.
Did you know?
Atlético have won their last six two-legged ties but Bayern's record in 23 previous home meetings against Liga opposition is pretty incredible. Find out more, as well as various other facts and stats, in our extensive match background.

    Competition facts Only this chapter

    UEFA Champions League: Did you know?
    • Teams have overturned a first-leg deficit to go through 36 times, including Real Madrid CF and Club Atlético de Madrid in the 2015/16 quarter-finals. Only twice – AFC Ajax's defeat of Panathinaikos FC in the 1995/96 semi-finals and FC Internazionale Milano's victory against Bayern in the 2010/11 round of 16 – has a side progressed after a home first-leg loss.
    • The biggest losing margin a side has overhauled was achieved by RC Deportivo La Coruña in the 2003/04 quarter-finals when they went down 4-1 at AC Milan but won 4-0 at home.
    • Twenty-six ties have been decided on away goals, including eight where the triumphant team lost the first leg.
    • In all, 26 ties have required extra time. Eleven have been settled by extra time alone: four quarter-finals, five round of 16 encounters – including  Bayern-Juventus in 2015/16 – the 2007/08 semi-final between Chelsea and Liverpool FC, and the 2013/14 final.
    • Fifteen ties have gone to penalties, including six finals – 1996, 2001, 2003, 2005, 2008 and 2012. The first two-legged tie decided on spot kicks was PSV Eindhoven's 4-2 victory over Olympique Lyonnais on 13 April 2005 after a 2-2 aggregate draw.
    • The 2015/16 round of 16 tie between Club Atlético de Madrid and PSV was the first to finish goalless after two legs. Twelve have finished 1-0 on aggregate, most recently Real Madrid CF's defeat of Club Atlético de Madrid and Juventus' win against AS Monaco FC in the 2014/15 quarter-finals.
    • Real Madrid won 6-1 at FC Schalke 04 in the 2013/14 round of 16, equalling the knockout phase record for the biggest first-leg lead – Bayern's 5-0 success at Sporting Clube de Portugal in the 2008/09 round of 16. Bayern eventually went through 12-1 after a 7-1 stroll in the home second leg; that tie also featured more goals (13) over its two legs than any UEFA Champions League knockout tie.
    • Bayern hold the record for the largest margin of victory in a UEFA Champions League knockout match having beaten both FC Basel 1893 (2011/12) and FC Shakhtar Donetsk (2014/15) 7-0 in the round of 16 second leg.
    • The biggest winning margin in a semi-final game is Bayern's 4-0 defeat of FC Barcelona in the 2012/13 first leg and Madrid's 4-0 win at Bayern in the second leg a year later. AFC Ajax beat Bayern 5-2 in 1994/95, while there were 4-1 wins for Juventus (1996/97 and 1997/98) and Valencia CF (1999/2000). Six teams have won 3-0, most recently Bayern's defeat of Olympique Lyonnais in 2009/10.
    • Bayern's 7-0 defeat of Barcelona in 2012/13 is the biggest aggregate win in a UEFA Champions League semi-final. That 4-1 win for Juventus against Monaco in 1997/98 was part of the biggest aggregate semi-final score. The principality club won 3-2 in their home return to make it ten goals in the tie.
    • Madrid's 6-0 second-leg win against FC Zürich in 1963/64 is the biggest European Cup semi-final victory. Eintracht Frankfurt's 12-4 success against Rangers FC in 1959/60 is the biggest aggregate total.
    • Clarence Seedorf is the only player to lift the European Cup with three clubs (Ajax 1995, Real Madrid 1998, Milan 2003, 2007). Bob Paisley (Liverpool 1977, 1978, 1981) was the first coach to win three times, a feat Carlo Ancelotti (Milan 2003, 2007, Real Madrid 2014) replicated.
    • In 2014 Ancelotti also became the fifth coach to win the trophy with two clubs; Ottmar Hitzfeld (Borussia Dortmund 1997, Bayern 2001), Ernst Happel (Feyenoord 1970, Hamburger SV 1983), José Mourinho (FC Porto 2004, Internazionale 2010) and Jupp Heynckes (Real Madrid 1998, Bayern 2013) had previously achieved the feat.
    • No team has successfully defended the UEFA Champions League trophy, with Milan (1989, 1990) the last club to pick up consecutive European Champion Clubs' Cups. Milan (1994, 1995), Ajax (1995, 1996), Juventus (1996, 1997) and Manchester United FC (2008, 2009) have all returned to the final as holders only to lose.
    • Only two sides have ever won the UEFA Champions League on home soil: Dortmund (1997, final in Munich) and Juventus (1996, final in Rome). Manchester United lost the 2011 final in London and 12 months later Bayern were beaten in the showpiece in their own stadium, the Fußball Arena München.
    UEFA Champions League: Did you know?
    • Lionel Messi became the first player to score five goals in a match in FC Barcelona's 7-1 triumph against Bayer 04 Leverkusen on 7 March 2012, a feat reproduced by FC Shakhtar Donetsk's Luiz Adriano at FC BATE Borisov on 21 October 2014. Eleven more players, also including Messi, have scored four times in a game, most recently Cristiano Ronaldo for Real Madrid on matchday six in 2015/16.
    • SS Lazio goalkeeper Marco Ballotta is the oldest player to compete at this level, having been aged 43 years and 252 days when he figured against Madrid on matchday six of the 2007/08 edition.
    • Francesco Totti is the oldest player to score in the competition, aged 38 years and 59 days, in AS Roma's 1-1 draw at PFC CSKA Moskva on 25 November 2014. Ryan Giggs (37 years and 290 days) was the previous record holder.
    • Celestine Babayaro is the youngest player to have appeared – he was 16 years and 87 days when he started for RSC Anderlecht against FC Steaua Bucureşti on 23 November 1994. He was sent off in the 37th minute.
    • Peter Ofori-Quaye is the youngest player to have scored, aged 17 years and 195 days, in Olympiacos FC's 5-1 reverse at Rosenborg BK on 1 October 1997.
