The return leg of the quarter finals is this week. Here's how the remaining teams did during their final tune-up matches:
Dortmund 4:2 FC Augsburg
Frankfurt 0:1 FC Bayern Munich (Bayern became Bundesliga champions with this win)
Real Sociedad 4:2 Malaga
Barcelona 5:0 Mallorca (Iniesta says that Lionel Messi will only play against PSG "if he is ready"
Real Madrid 5:1 Levante
Galatasaray 3:1 Mersin Idman
PSG 2:0 Rennes
Juventus 2:1 US Pescara
Galatasaray, Barcelona, and Juventus all played last-placed teams in their respective league matches, and Dortmund hampered FC Augsburg's chances of staying in 1. Bundesliga with their win. Meanwhile, Real Madrid and PSG played mid-table teams. FC Bayern Munich and Malaga's most recent opponents are fighting for a place in next year's Champions League competition.
Here's where we stand on aggregate after the first leg. This week's home team is listed first in the pairings below.
Dortmund 0:0 Malaga
Juventus 0:2 FC Bayern Munich
Barcelona 2:2 PSG
Galatasaray 0:3 Real Madrid
My guess is that Dortmund, FC Bayern Munich, Real Madrid will all qualify for the semi final. The Barca/PSG match is too close to call, and depends IMO on whether Messi plays. If he does, Barca will advance. If not, Barca may still advance but I'll give the narrowest of edges to PSG.
