Team News

Royal Antwerp
Barcelona
  • Jurgen Ekkelenkamp remains suspended following his red card against FC Porto in November.
  • Arbnor Muja joins Ekkelenkamp after his sending off against Shakhtar two weeks ago.
  • Gavi is out for the rest of the season, while Marc-Andre ter Stegen is also absent with Inaki Pena set to continue between the sticks.
  • Inigo Martinez and Marcos Alonso are also sidelined through injury.

Prediction

  • Antwerp have lost all five of their matches in the Champions League this season, and will be hoping to bow out with at least a strong performance here.
  • Barcelona have sealed qualification for the knockout stages and will simply have to avoid defeat here to be confirmed as group winners.
  • The visitors ran out 5-0 winners when these two sides met back in September.
  • Xavi's side should have more than enough quality to bounce back from defeat to Girona at the weekend with a win here.
