#4 Barcelona's away knockout blues continues
Barcelona have not won the Champions League since 2015 and while their infamous capitulations to AS Roma and Liverpool are well known, a less known fact is that the Blaugrana have been terrible away from home in the knockout rounds over the last few years.
Since defeating Arsenal 2-0 in the round-of-16 in 2016, Barcelona have won just one of their next nine away matches in the knockout round, with their narrow 1-0 victory over Manchester United last year the only reprieve in the last four years.
In this time, there have been heavy defeats to PSG and Juventus, in addition to the aforementioned duo, while another loss was also recorded at the Vicente Calderon to Atletico Madrid in the 2016 quarterfinal, with clashes against Lyon, Napoli, and Chelsea ending in stalemates in the round-of-16.
For context, Griezmann's 57th minute strike here meant that he became the first Barcelona player apart from Messi to score an away goal in the Champions League knockout stage since Neymar did so against Bayern in April 2015.
By contrast, their home form has been impeccable (Barca have not lost at Camp Nou in the Champions League since 2013) but in light of their recent eliminations, getting the job done away from home is imperative to continental success.
