With just an hour left before the kickoff, Barcelona have unveiled their playing eleven for the crucial Champions League tie against Borussia Dortmund.
Hansi Flick has retained his core side for the trip to Dortmund and is likely to once again operate with a high defensive line.
The biggest takeaway from the starting eleven comes in the form of Ronald Araujo, who returns to the bench after a long absence from injury.
It remains unlikely the Uruguayan international will be rushed into action, though.
Not many changes are there elsewhere, with both Gavi and Frenkie de Jong starting on the bench as well.
Barcelona have a packed offensive setup led by former Dortmund striker Robert Lewandowski, who is one of the top scorers in Europe and has a healthy record against his former employers.
However, Dani Olmo will also be in focus today as the former RB Leipzig playmaker is quite familiar when it comes to Dortmund.
