The next Barcelona match is upon us! The Blaugrana welcome Borussia Dortmund for the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie, and Hansi Flick has called up the following 23 players for Wednesday’s game:
Goalkeepers: 13. Iñaki Peña, 25. Wojciech Szczesny, 31. Diego Kochen
Defenders: 2. Pau Cubarsí, 3. Alejandro Balde, 4. Ronald Araujo, 5. Iñigo Martínez, 15. Andreas Christensen, 23. Jules Kounde, 24. Eric García, 32. Héctor Fort, 35. Gerard Martín

Forwards: 7. Ferran Torres, 9. Robert Lewandowski, 10. Ansu Fati, 11. Raphinha, 18. Pau Víctor, 19. Lamine Yamal
There are some very good news for this one as Barça welcome back Iñigo Martínez after the center-back missed the weekend draw against Real Betis due to some muscle discomfort. His return leaves only Marc Casadó (knee), Dani Olmo (groin) and Marc Bernal (knee) as long-term injury asbences, while Marc-André ter Stegen (knee) is back in training but still waiting to get his medical clearance.
Predicted starting XI (4-2-3-1):
Szczesny; Kounde, Cubarsí, Iñigo, Balde; De Jong, Pedri; Yamal, Gavi, Raphinha; Lewandowski
The match kicks off at 9pm CET (Barcelona), 8pm BST/WAT (UK & Nigeria), 3pm ET, 12pm PT (USA), 12.30am IST (India, Thursday), and you can join us to follow and comment all the action.
