Xavi spoke ahead of the game against Bayern: "I expect a very intense opponent, very physical, tactically well worked. We consider them one of the best teams in the world. It's an important match. We must win it regardless of what happens. We have to prove with play and victories that Munich was a footballing misfortune. We have to show tomorrow that we can keep up with this kind of team.

"So much for a miracle... we have a little hope. We are in a very uncomfortable situation. There are a lot of numbers for us not to go through."

"We must not lose our mentality. After the Clasico it looked like a disaster and we reacted well against two strong opponents. We have to continue on the path of showing that we can compete against this kind of rivals, regardless of what happens in Milan."

"What if we go through? There is a little hope. It's the last thing to lose. You don't depend on yourself, that's the misfortune."

"We're going to give our all to show that we can compete against these opponents."

"We have changed the dynamic. I think it's better for the player. I'm fine with it, I don't like too much concentration in hotels. It's my decision. I'm not superstitious. If I think we win or lose because of superstition... I don't come to work anymore."

"It's been marked from the start. I understand perfectly. It doesn't matter. We have to win the match. The goal is to win and have a good feeling."

"It depends on the match. It gives us more security with the ball. We populate the midfield more and there is a free man. It's a bit of a tactical struggle for the coaches."

"We have not been at the level in many situations in the Champions League. I have the feeling that we have had it in our hands and we no longer depend on us."

"He gives you duels, he corrects very well. He marks the line very high, he is very focused. He is a guarantee. He is a brutal defender for the age he is. The maturity he has, the leadership. He has many virtues.

"It depends on the circumstances, on the match. A reference striker is important for the team, for the group. If he's not there, you can adapt to other circumstances. You can adapt. Now we have an extraordinary '9', a reference, who even goes down to play as a false '9' and generate superiority."

"Félix is a friend. I have a great relationship with him and we talk a lot. I wish him the best. I think he is an extraordinary coach. I predict they will have a great World Cup and be competitive. I've learned a lot from him, he's the one I've learned the most from as a coach."

"The team has personality. It has character and it gave us courage to lose the Clasico. The team has reacted very well. The team is a team. There's a good atmosphere and the team is winning."

Bayern beat Hoffenheim two goals to nil, so they will be looking to continue their positive streak and add another victory.
