A win would see the Catalan giants move seven points clear of Real Madrid. Barcelona thrashed Borussia Dortmund 4-0 in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League quarterfinal clash. The Spanish giants were in complete control from start to finish, with their clinical finishing leaving the German side with little hope.<\/p><p>While Barca continue their pursuit of a potential treble this season, Leganes are fighting for survival. Borja Jimenez&rsquo;s side currently sit 18th, two points adrift of safety. Leganes head into this clash following a 1-1 draw with Osasuna, which brought an end to their three-match losing streak. Notably, Leganes pulled off a shock 1-0 win over Barcelona in the reverse fixture back in mid-December, a result they&rsquo;ll be hoping to replicate as they fight to avoid the drop.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Your plan for Saturday. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Legan%C3%A9sBar%C3%A7a?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>#Legan&eacute;sBar&ccedil;a<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/9cPTFnxnSr\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>https:\/\/t.co\/9cPTFnxnSr<\/a><\/p>&mdash; FC Barcelona (@FCBarcelona) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FCBarcelona\/status\/1910674999200874933?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>April 11, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Leganes Injury News<\/h2><p>Leganes will remain without Enric Franquesa and Borna Barisic, who are still recovering from long-term injuries and won&rsquo;t be available for selection this weekend.
