FC Barcelona is set to face Bayern Munich in the Champions League, with coach Hansi Flick making a surprise change to his lineup. Flick, who previously led Bayern to a treble, including a 8-2 thrashing of Barca in 2020, has decided to drop Ansu Fati and bring in Fermin Lopez to partner Pedri in midfield.

Bayern will look to cause trouble for Manuel Neuer, while Barca's defense, led by Inaki Pena and Jules Kounde, aims to keep Harry Kane and Jamal Musiala at bay.
