I don't think a 3-0 home win is out of the question, though unlikely. Barcelona, though, that's over. Bayern will probably score one meaning Barca will have to score 6. Virtually no chance of that.

I think it's a massive long shot for Real too, but they are by far the more likely of the two Spanish sides to advance. Bayern are somewhat likely to field a B team as Schweinsteiger, Lahm, Martinez, and Dante all have yellow cards to worry about, but they have still been crushing teams in the Bundesliga using their B players the last few weeks. I just don't see any way back to even a competitive situation for Barca at this point.
