Official: Barcelona starting lineup against Atalanta | UEFA Champions League

Barcelona will face off against Atalanta in their last group game of the UEFA Champions League in over an hour at Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys.

With a spot in the Round of 16 already secured, the Catalans are hoping to finish at the top of the standings, although Liverpool would need to slip up against PSV for that to happen.

Ahead of the match, Barcelona manager Hansi Flick has announced the starting lineup, with changes made to the team that featured against Valencia in La Liga over the weekend.

Ronald Araujo, for starters, returns to the lineup with Pau Cubarsi getting a rest. The Uruguayan partners Eric Garcia at the heart of the defence while Jules Kounde and Alejandro Balde line up as the full-backs.

As confirmed by Flick, Wojciech Szczesny continues in goal for the home team.

Gavi and Pedri are also back in the starting XI, replacing Fermin Lopez and Marc Casado, respectively in the midfield department. Frenkie de Jong retains his place in the side after impressing on his start vs Valencia.

In attack, Robert Lewandowski makes a comeback to the team after coming on as a substitute at the weekend. He replaces Ferran Torres, with Raphinha and Lamine Yamal continuing on the flanks.
