The Culés are coming off a key midweek victory in the Champions League, staging a 2-1 comeback against Eintracht Frankfurt at Camp Nou. Jules Koundé was the star of the match, scoring twice in the space of three minutes.
After the victory, Hansi Flick was questioned about Lamine Yamal's obvious annoyance at being substituted in the final minutes of the match.
"(Lamine Yamal) was a little disappointed, but he had a yellow card and I needed fresh legs," said the German coach.
