FC Barcelona Lineup

Atlético de Madrid Lineup

Barcelona’s form 

Barcelona arrives without Raphinha, but with the motivation of having won at the Metropolitano in LaLiga. Flick’s team found a solid replacement in Rashford, and Lewandowski rediscovered his scoring touch.
At the back, João Cancelo has been decisive, and Lamine Yamal—who was unlucky over the weekend—continues to show outstanding form.

Atlético’s form 

Simeone’s side comes in hurting and eager for revenge at Camp Nou. Without Johnny Cardoso, Pablo Barrios, or José María Giménez available, Atlético still maintains its attacking power, with Griezmann and Julián Álvarez in excellent form. Atlético has never been eliminated by Barça in the Champions League and looks to keep that trend going.
