With both players returning, the coaching staff have more top-quality defensive options. However, some tactical questions remain over the starting line-up.
At the back, Eric García and academy graduate Brian Fariñas are competing for the right-back spot. Barring any last-minute surprises, the coaching staff appear to have already settled on their choice to contain the opposition’s attack.
Meanwhile, in midfield, the team must fill the significant void left by Rodri’s injury. Frenkie de Jong and Marc Bernal are vying for the key role of dictating play and providing balance.
Rounding out the squad is young talent Ebrima Tunkara, who travels with the first team as one of the standout youngsters in Barça’s travelling party.
