Barcelona team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Bayern Munich

Sports Mole rounds up all of Barcelona's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Tuesday's Champions League with Bayern Munich.

Barcelona's first match since the end of August will see them take on Bayern Munich in the group stage of the Champions League on Tuesday evening.

The Catalan giants had initially been due to face Sevilla in La Liga on Saturday, but the match was postponed due to a clash with World Cup qualifiers in South America.

Ronald Koeman's side, who were knocked out in the last-16 stage of last season's European Cup, will be looking to get their Group E challenge off to the perfect start against the German giants.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Barcelona's injury and suspension news ahead of their European opener on home soil.

Barcelona will be without the services of new signing Aguero once again due to a calf problem, and the Argentine is not expected to be available for selection until at least the end of October.
