Official: Barcelona starting lineup against Crvena Zvezda

As Barcelona look for their third win of the 2024/25 UEFA Champions League tonight against Crvena Zvezda, manager Hansi Flick has announced the starting lineup that will take the field at the Rajko Mitic Stadium.

The Barça manager has made three changes to the starting XI that took the field against RCD Espanyol this past weekend.

Two of the alterations come in defence where Jules Kounde returns to the team at right-back replacing Hector Fort. Meanwhile, Gerard Martin gets a starting opportunity at the expense of Alejandro Balde at left-back.

Inigo Martinez and Pau Cubarsi continue as the two centre-backs in front of goalkeeper Inaki Pena.

Meanwhile, star midfielder Frenkie de Jong makes his first start of the season, slotting in alongside Marc Casado in the double pivot for the Catalans. Pedri is moved to an advanced role as the No. 10 with Dani Olmo getting benched.

Raphinha, Robert Lewandowski, and Lamine Yamal form the attacking unit for Barcelona against the Serbian giants.
