Barça – Atlético Madrid/@Foot Mercato

After being humiliated in the first leg at the Metropolitano (4-0), FC Barcelona must overturn Atlético Madrid to secure their ticket to the final of the Copa del Rey.

Barça will host Atlético Madrid this Tuesday, March 3, 2026, at 20:00 GMT in the second leg of the Copa del Rey semifinal. The Blaugrana are forced to stage a Remontada, reminiscent of their legendary comeback against Paris Saint-Germain in 2017, if they want to reach another final in this competition.

Hansi Flick will have to do without Robert Lewandowski. The Polish striker joins Frenkie de Jong and Andreas Christensen on the injury list. Gavi remains sidelined. As for Eric Garcia, he is suspended following his red card in the first leg.

On the other side, Diego Simeone cannot count on Pablo Barrios, who is injured. He is the only absentee for the Colchoneros, who benefit from the return of Nico Gonzalez.

Here are the probable lineups:

FC Barcelona: Garcia - Kounde, Cubarsi, Martin, Balde - Pedro, Olmo - Yamal, Lopez, Raphinha, Torres.
