Atletico Madrid, striving for its first Champions League semifinal appearance in nearly ten years, is poised to face Barcelona with a two-goal advantage after winning 2-0 in their initial encounter.
In a potential twist, goalkeeper Jan Oblak may return from a muscle injury, adding strength to Atletico's defense. Having been absent since early March, Oblak's participation could be pivotal.
Facing a strong Barcelona, missing Raphinha due to injury, Atletico's home-field advantage might prove crucial. Tuesday's victor will meet either Arsenal or Sporting Lisbon, following their decisive match in England on Wednesday.
