Barcelona have seemingly reverted to a 4-4-2 formation against Juventus, with both Javier Mascherano and Jeremy Mathieu dropped from the starting lineup – the latter dropped from the first team squad entirely – for this match while Gerard Pique and Samuel Umtiti start.
Juventus, meanwhile, have included Paulo Dybala despite the injury scare the Argentinian wizard suffered over the weekend. Dybala picked up a minor sprain but he has been passed fit to start against Barcelona. The confirmed lineups for both teams can be seen below.
