"He's fine, but we also have to take care of him because the last match against Atlético was very intense, and even more so for him."
"In training he shows how good he is, and we'll see how he plays. I have a lot of confidence in him; he's a good player and deserves to play."
"We're more focused on ourselves. We know how they play, but the important thing is that we stick to our game plan. I'm very happy with the match against Atlético, but that's in the past, and we need to maintain our level."
Hansi Flick left Raphinha on the bench while confirming the winger is fine but being managed after an intense match against Atlético. Roony Bardghji returns to the starting XI after five games and will play as the No.10, earning selection through strong training performances and coach confidence. Eric Garcia has settled into a midfield role and is valued for his versatility while the defensive structure remains intact despite Frenkie's return. The match objective is to maintain the recent level, stick to Barcelona's game plan, focus on the team's performance, and secure three points.
