Team News: Three changes for APOEL, Luis Suarez and Lionel Messi up front for Barcelona

Three changes for APOEL

APOEL have made three changes from their last Champions League game - a 1-0 defeat away at Paris Saint-Germain - for this evening's home clash against Barcelona at the GSP Stadium.

Former Manchester United defender Nicholas Ioannou, Georgios Efrem and Rafik Djebbour are out of the squad in lieu of Marios Antoniades, Efstathios Aloneftis and Cillian Sheridan.

Meanwhile, the Spanish giants are still unable to count on Andres Iniesta, missing for the visitors with a calf problem, but do have Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez up front.

The Argentine is currently level with Raul as the top scorer in the Champions League, so a goal tonight would give him the record outright.

APOEL starting XI: Pardo, Guilherme, Carlao, Antoniades, Sergio, Gomes, Vinicius, Manduca, Morais, Aloneftis, Sheridan

Barcelona starting XI: Ter Stegen, Pique, Mascherano, Bartra, Alba, Alves, Rakitic, Rafinha, Rodriguez, Suarez, Messi
