Barcelona team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Juventus

Barcelona injury, suspension list vs. Juventus

Barcelona will round off their Champions League group-stage campaign with a home match against Italian champions Juventus on Tuesday night.

Ronald Koeman's side, who lost 2-1 at Cadiz in La Liga on Saturday, have already booked their spot in the knockout round of the competition, winning all five of their Group G fixtures to sit top of the pile.

Juve are also already through to the last-16 stage, and the Italian side would only overtake Barca in the section if they win by three goals or more at Camp Nou or by any two-goal margin other than 2-0.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the home side's latest injury and suspension news.

Barca are expected to be without the services of Ansu Fati for the next three to four months, with the exciting youngster recently undergoing surgery to address the knee injury that he picked up in November.
