FC Barcelona V Atletico Madrid Confirmed Lineups: Fernando Torres Starts Up Front For Rojiblancos

FC Barcelona have named a full strength starting eleven for their Champions League quarter final match against Atletico Madrid at the Camp Nou, with boss Luis Enrique making just one change from the side that lost 2-1 to a 10-man Real Madrid side earlier this weekend.

Even the one change (goalkeeper Marc-Andre Ter Stegen) was expected as the German custodian plays in the club’s Copa Del Rey and Champions League matches while Claudio Bravo stands under the bar in the La Liga fixtures.

Here’s the Barcelona lineup and substitutes bench.

Atletico Madrid manager Diego Simeone seems to have adopted a cautious approach as he has fielded what looks like the 4-1-4-1 formation. Yannick Yarrasco was doubtful for the game but the Belgian winger gets a start with former Liverpool striker Fernando Torres getting the nod up front. Here is Atletico’s team sheet.
