Team News
Barcelona
Barcelona have no fitness or suspension concerns ahead of this match, but head coach Xavi is likely to take the opportunity to rest a couple of players on Wednesday night.

Eric Garcia could come out of the back four for Andreas Christensen, while Gavi might be given a rest in midfield, with Frenkie de Jong potentially coming in for a start.

Ousmane Dembele is another who could be pulled out of the side at this stage of the season, with Ferran Torres potentially featuring alongside Raphinha and Lewandowski in the final third.

Ansu Fati is getting closer to starting matches for Barcelona, but the club are still being careful with the youngster due to his recent injury record, so he could again be used off the bench here.
Barcelona possible starting lineup:
Ter Stegen; Kounde, Araujo, Christensen, Balde; De Jong, Busquets, Pedri; Raphinha, Lewandowski, F Torres

Viktoria Plzen
As for Plzen, Petr Pejsa is a long-term absentee due to a serious knee injury, but the visitors are otherwise in good shape ahead of the contest at Camp Nou.

There could be a change in the final third from their league contest at the weekend, with Tomas Chory potentially taking the place of Fortune Bassey.

Plzen often line up in a 4-2-3-1 formation and that should again be the case for this match, with Jan Sykora, who scored against Slovan Liberec on Saturday, set to feature as the number 10.
Viktoria Plzen possible starting lineup:
Stanek; Holik, Hejda, Pernica, Jemelka; Kalvach, Bucha; Kopic, Sykora, Mosquera; Chory
Prediction: Barcelona 3-0 Viktoria Plzen
