Report: Neymar, Gerard Pique to start against APOEL

Barcelona boss Luis Enrique is expected to hand starts to both Gerard Pique and Neymar in Wednesday's Champions League clash against APOEL.

A muscular problem has stunted Pique's start to the season, but he did appear in the second half of Saturday's 2-0 win over Athletic Bilbao.

Neymar, who is yet to start a match this season, also came off the bench against Bilbao, scoring a late brace to help his side claim all the points.

According to AS, both are now in line to start against APOEL at the Camp Nou.

Long-serving defender Pique faces a fight to regain his spot in the team this season following a strong start to the campaign from summer signing Jeremy Mathieu.
