Team news and squads

FC Barcelona team news

Hansi Flick spoke at a press conference about various topics, including his statement naming Joan García as the club's undisputed number one goalkeeper, ahead of Ter Stegen. The German coach also commented on the team's recent improvement in performance.

"Everyone knows what we've been through in the last three months, with injured players, and we had to manage the minutes. We only have six players in defence. In the final minutes, there is fatigue, and it is not always easy to maintain a high level. This morning I told them that we are doing well, more united. That's what we want. They have played at a different level than a month ago. Cubarsí is only 18 years old, and sometimes we forget that. Cubarsí had 87 passes with 100% accuracy against Betis. I think that's a record in LaLiga," he explained.

Eintracht Frankfurt team news

The Eagles, on the verge of elimination from the continental tournament and out of the Champions League spots in the Bundesliga, will have to face the match without Michy Batshuayi, who joins Jonathan Burkardt in the infirmary.
