How Will Barcelona Lineup Against Bayern Munich in the UEFA Champions League?

The club is undergoing a great transformation. Things have gone from bad to worse for the Catalans. Forward Antonie Griezmann has returned on loan to his old club, Atlético de Madrid. Ronald Koeman has a long list of injuries. Both Sergio Agüero and Ansu Fati are excluded from the UCL squad against Bayern Munich. In addition, forward Martin Braithwaite will have surgery and it is very likely that he will miss the crash.

In the absence of Braithwaite and Agüero, Depay and Coutinho will maintain command. Piqué is more likely to hold Barcelona’s defensive functions. In addition, Koeman will go with Sergio Roberto ahead of Sergino Dest in the right-back position.

Barcelona Probable XI – Ter Stegen (GK), Sergi Roberto, Ronald Araujo, Gerard Piqué, Jordi Alba, Sergio Busquets, Frankie de Jong, Pedri, Memphis Depay, Luke de Jong and Philippe Coutinho.
