Team news

There is good news and bad news for Barcelona. They will be without Clement Lenglet who is suspended and given that Umtiti is yet to return, Valverde will have problems in defense. Fortunately, Alba and Feti are back, which is a huge boost for the home side.

Messi fitness should be better after a lovely display against Inter Milan. Despite his sluggish first half, the Argentine grew as the game went on. Whether Griezmann will start or not is unknown given his lackluster display on Wednesday.

As for the away side, they have welcomed back Daniel Carrico to their defense. However, Sergi Gomez will miss out on this Camp Nou trip due to an injury.
