Barcelona team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Juventus

Sports Mole rounds up Barcelona's injury and suspension news ahead of Tuesday's Champions League clash with Juventus.

Barcelona will round off their Champions League group-stage campaign with a home match against Italian champions Juventus on Tuesday night.

Ronald Koeman's side, who lost 2-1 at Cadiz in La Liga on Saturday, have already booked their spot in the knockout round of the competition, winning all five of their Group G fixtures to sit top of the pile.

Juve are also already through to the last-16 stage, and the Italian side would only overtake Barca in the section if they win by three goals or more at Camp Nou or by any two-goal margin other than 2-0.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the home side's latest injury and suspension news.
