Spanish papers note Barcelona are “clear favourites” in the Champions League Final, but fear Alvaro Morata for Juventus.

The showdown kicks off in Berlin this evening at 19.45 UK time (18.45 GMT).

In conjunction with our sister site Football Espana, we bring you the front page headlines from Spain’s media this morning.

Marca leads with Lionel Messi walking out on to the turf and the headline: ‘The man of the Final.’

It points out Barça “rely on a full-fledged Messi to win their fifth Champions League. Clear favourites against a versatile Juventus, who also aspire for the Treble.”

The biggest concern seems to be Spanish striker Morata, whose goals already eliminated Real Madrid in the semi-final.

Indeed AS have Morata on the cover given equal billing with Messi: ‘Treble or Moratazo.’

“Barcelona are favourites in the betting,” but Juve have their own Spanish weapon.

Mundo Deportivo has the trio of Luis Suarez, Messi and Neymar charging across the Brandenburg Gate like the statues of horses.

“Forca Bar5a” is the headline, reminding readers this would be the club’s fifth Champions League as well as a Treble and seeing Berlin painted in Azulgrana colours.

Luis Enrique explains “we have the best players in the world, but we’re a team.”

Max Allegri counters by telling fans “not to expect 0-0.”
