FC Barcelona Predicted Lineup vs Slavia Prague: Team News for Champions League Game

FC Barcelona's European adventure continues with a trip to the Czechia to take on Slavia Prague in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday.

Barca have a chance to climb into the top-eight of the UCL league standings with a win, going up against a Slavia Prague side that is still winless in the competition so far.

The Blaugrana's last outing in the tournament was a 2-1 win over Eintracht Frankfurt at the Spotify Camp Nou in early December. They currently occupy 15th place in the Champions League table with 10 points from six games.

Hansi Flick's side suffered their first setback in almost two months over the weekend, losing 2-1 to Real Sociedad and ending their 11-game winning streak.

With Real Madrid beating Levante, the Catalans' lead at the top of the La Liga table has been cut to just one point.

Slavia, meanwhile, are stuck near the bottom of the Champions League standings with just three points from three draws and as many losses. They suffered a 3-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur last time out in the UCL.

Things are going better for Prague in the Czech First League, as they sit in first place with 45 points through 19 games and a seven-point cushion over their crosstown rivals, Sparta Prague.

Barcelona and Slavia Prague have only faced off on two previous occasions, in the group stage of the 2019-20 campaign. Barca won the first tie 2-1, but the return fixture resulted in a 0-0 draw.

FC Barcelona Team News and Predicted Lineup

Flick Barcelona

Flick will be without Lamine Yamal for Wednesday's trip to Czechia, as the teenager serves a one-game suspension for yellow card accumulation.

Raphinha missed out on the loss to Sociedad but should be ready to go in Prague, while Marcus Rashford should be the one to fill for Yamal. Robert Lewandowski should also draw back in as Ferran Torres nurses a hamstring injury.

Frenkie De Jong could get a rest in midfield, making way for Marc Casado to play alongside Pedri.

FC Barcelona predicted lineup (4-2-3-1): Joan Garcia (GK) – Jules Koundé, Pau Cubarsi, Eric Garcia, Alejandro Balde – Marc Casado, Pedri – Raphinha, Fermin Lopez, Marcus Rashford – Robert Lewandowski.
