Monaco
Monaco should be able to call upon midfielder Lamine Camara as Ligue 1 have validated his release from concussion protocols after being stretchered off with a neck injury against Auxerre at the weekend.
The two confirmed absentees remain Edan Diop and backup goalkeeper Radoslaw Majecki, who will not be available for selection until next month at the earliest.
Hutter made eight changes to his side for the clash with Lens before the international break, but reverted back to the same XI which had beaten Lyon for the Auxerre game at the weekend, so with many players at his disposal, more changes could be incoming.
Monaco possible starting lineup:
Kohn; Vanderson, Kehrer, Mawissa Elebi, Caio Henrique; Camara, Zakaria; Akliouche, Minamino, Ben Seghir; Embolo
Barcelona
Barcelona have been left disappointed by the news that Dani Olmo will be out until after the October international break with a hamstring injury sustained against Girona on Sunday, leaving Flick extremely short on midfield options.
Olmo joins a very long list of absentees at Barca, with Fermin Lopez, Gavi, Frenkie de Jong and Andreas Christensen among those also out.
Ronald Araujo is currently sidelined with a hamstring injury, but he would have been suspended anyway after his red card against PSG in last season's quarter-final.
Robert Lewandowski has scored eight Champions League goals since joining Barca, taking his tally overall to 94, and he will be setting his sights on becoming the third player to hit the century mark during this league phase.
Barcelona possible starting lineup:
Ter Stegen; Kounde, Pau Cubarsi, Inigo Martinez, Balde; Eric Garcia, Pedri, Casado; Lamine Yamal, Lewandowski, Raphinha
Prediction: Monaco 0-2 Barcelona
