Barcelona team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Bayern Munich

Barcelona injury, suspension list vs. Bayern

Barcelona take on Bayern Munich at the Estadio da Luz on Friday evening in the pick of the Champions League quarter-finals.

The Catalan giants endured a disappointing domestic campaign but remain on course for continental silverware after beating Napoli in the last 16.

In what is a real rarity, though, they will enter a fixture as underdogs against a Bayern side who thrashed Chelsea 7-1 on aggregate in the last round and are unbeaten in 27 matches, winning 26 of those.

Ahead of Friday's much-anticipated clash, Sports Mole rounds up Barca's latest injury and suspension news.


Ousmane Dembele

Status: Major doubt Type of injury: Hamstring Possible return date: August 14 (vs. Bayern)

Ousmane Dembele has been out for Barca since the end of November with a serious hamstring injury, but he recently returned to training and was a surprise inclusion in their travelling party for this quarter-final.


Samuel Umtiti

Status: Out Type of injury: Knee Possible return date: Unknown

Samuel Umtiti has not made a first-team outing since the end of June due to knee issues. The centre-back has been given a slight chance of playing again this season, but he is not part of the 26-man squad for the Bayern match.


BARCELONA'S SUSPENSION LIST

Barca have no players suspended for this game and will be able to welcome back central midfielders Sergio Busquets and Arturo Vidal, who were both banned for Saturday's encounter with Napoli.
