The alignment of Barcelona against him Young Boys for the match of the second day of the Champions League offers little doubt. And it is that Hansi Flick He has few options in all of his positions. For example in the center of the field, which with the sanction of Eric Garcia forces the German to place him in the midfield next to Pedri and Casadó. Everything indicates that Ferran Torres will be the owner.
It will be in the goal Iñaki Peña. The youth squad Barcelona He will play his third game as goalkeeper for the Barça team after the serious knee injury of Ter Stegen. The Spanish goalkeeper has just conceded four goals against Osasuna, but Hansi Flick has no other option, although he spoke about it at a press conference this Monday: «I’m not talking about players who are not yet on our team. The only thing I can say is that the Barça players cannot have a guarantee that they will be starters.
In defense they will return Iñigo Martínez y Balde. Both rested against Osasuna and the team ended up paying for it. Hansi Flick will once again line up Koundé on the right side, Balde on the left and Cubarsí and Iñigo Martínez in the center of the defense. The experiment at El Sadar with Sergi Domínguez and Gerard Martín went really wrong.
In the center of the field, the alignment of Barcelona nor does it offer doubts since Eric García is sanctioned. It is true that Frenkie de Jong returns, but his long absence will not allow him to be in the game. The Dutchman will hope to have his first minutes in the second half. Pedri and Casadó they will do the double pivot, while Raphinha He will play as a midfielder, inside. And basically because Hansi Flick He has no other options.
Ferran Torres can be a starter
In attack they return without a doubt Lamine Yamal and the aforementioned Raphinha. Both were substitutes against Osasuna for rest and caution, but Hansi Flick will once again give them ownership together with the tireless Lewandowski. As we say, the Brazilian will play in the midfield, so he leaves a position on the wing.
And there it appears Ferran Torres to be a starter on the left side. The Spanish winger will have his first minutes as a starter in the Champions League given that Hansi Flick you have no other options. It could also be the turn of Ansu Fati, but those options are much more remote.
Possible lineup for Barcelona against Young Boys
Ter Stegen Koundé, Cubarsí, Iñigo Martínez, Balde; Casadó, Pedri; Lamine, Raphinha, Ferran; Lewandowski.
