Barcelona team news
Xavi will have been forced into a slight reshuffle of his pack because of the suspensions for Sergi Roberto and Andreas Christensen, both of whom were yellow carded in the first leg.
The captain’s place will be taken by fit-again Pedri, whilst Christensen, a useful weapon off the bench in Paris, is likely to see his place in the squad given to Fermin Lopez.
With one eye on El Clasico which follows this fixture, Barca could decide to rest Lamine Yamal from the start, with Joao Felix offered another chance to show what he can do on the biggest stage.
Possible XI: Marc-Andre ter Stegen, Jules Kounde, Ronald Araujo, Pau Cubarsi, Joao Cancelo, Ilkay Gundogan, Pedri, Frenkie de Jong, Raphinha, Robert Lewandowski, Joao Felix.
PSG team news
Although Gianluigi Donnarumma had a nightmare in the first leg at the Parc Des Princes, Luis Enrique has little option but to continue with the towering Italian.
Barcelona are likely to pepper him with crosses all night long again, so the same back four as played in Paris will need to be right on their game and protect their custodian.
Warren Zaire-Emery has to be given the nod in order to bring something different to the party in Barcelona, whilst Bradley Barcola’s effervescence should see him start ahead of Marco Asensio.
Possible XI: Gianluigi Donnarumma, Marquinhos, Lucas Hernandez, Lucas Beraldo, Nuno Mendes, Warren Zaire-Emery, Vitinha, Fabian Ruiz, Ousmane Dembele, Bradley Barcola, Kylian Mbappe.
