Barcelona have made one change from last weekend's defeat to Real Madrid as goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen comes in for Claudio Bravo against Atletico Madrid in their Champions League quarter-final first leg at Camp Nou this evening.
As expected, the Catalan giants' prolific trio Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar start up front, with Ivan Rakitic, Sergio Busquets and Andres Iniesta providing support.
Aleix Vidal is not in the matchday squad as the defender suffered a muscle injury in training, and he joins Jeremy Mathieu, Adriano and Sandro Ramirez on the treatment table.
Meanwhile, Diego Godin and Yannick Carrasco have been included in Atletico's starting XI after the pair returned to training this week, but Jose Gimenez has missed out due to a hamstring injury.
Fernando Torres has been given the nod up front alongside Antoine Griezmann.
Barcelona: Ter Stegen; Dani Alves, Mascherano, Pique, Alba; Rakitic, Busquets, Iniesta; Messi, Suarez, Neymar
Subs: Bravo, Arda, Rafinha, Bartra, Munir, Sergi Roberto, Vermaelen
Atletico Madrid: Oblak; Juanfran, Godin, Lucas, Filipe Luis; Gabi, Saul Niguez, Koke, Carrasco; Griezmann, Torres
