India and England two teams vying to become record-breaking three-time T20 World Cup champions will meet in the second semifinal of the tournament on Thursday. India are also out to break the voodoo of a host nation and defending champion successfully retain the title, but England will hope the pressure of playing in front of a cricket-crazy home crowd will help halt their opponent's march at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.

Last seen over the weekend putting in a downbeat display as they slumped to a 3-1 loss away at Juarez, Diego Cocca's side have recorded just a sole win from any of their previous four domestic appearances. Including another 3-1 defeat at the hands of Pachuca, the former real Valladolid boss has also seen his squad show some worrying defensive struggles.

It all starts with believing in a comeback. From what I'm reading, the players and coaches have this mentality. Honestly, I think it's possible. The opponent is very strong, but when I scored my last goal, we were facing one of the best teams in the world, PSG.

I'm just really looking forward to being in a tournament and not talking about my left calf. I've had a long journey from my ACL return, so I'm just honestly so excited, so grateful to be back here and just be playing football, enjoying training, enjoying all the things that come in, come with the team.

If we recall the last match in Villarreal, we had a bit of luck. They had very good transitions, we mustn't make unnecessary mistakes and we have to play in our style. Barcelona's coach Hansi Flick acknowledges Villarreal's quality and warns against complacency despite their previous victory.

Bodø/Glimt were already admired for their ascent through the Norwegian system-returning to the top flight only in 2017 and winning four league titles in the years that followed. But their leap into the Champions League spotlight this season has been extraordinary. As tournament debutants, they arrived with curiosity surrounding them-but they quickly replaced intrigue with astonishment.

Barcelona's march under Hansi Flick this season has been built on a simple but ruthless principle - make home advantage untouchable. No matter the venue, no matter the circumstances, the reigning champions have turned every stadium they have called home into hostile territory for visiting sides. The numbers, the performances, and the growing belief around the squad all point to the same conclusion that Barça are laying the foundations of a title-winning campaign.

The Premier League allows clubs to slightly adjust pitch sizes within set parameters, creating potential advantages for teams based on their strategies and styles of play.
