Barcelona team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Viktoria Plzen

Sports Mole rounds up Barcelona's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their Champions League clash with Viktoria Plzen.

Barcelona will be bidding to record just their second victory in Group C when they finish their Champions League campaign away to Viktoria Plzen on Tuesday night.

Xavi's side cannot qualify for the last-16 stage of the competition, while they have already been confirmed in third position, which will see them drop into the Europa League.

The Catalan side lost 3-0 against Bayern Munich in the Champions League last week, but they recorded a 1-0 win over Valencia in La Liga on Saturday to move to the top of the table.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Barcelona's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Viktoria Plzen, who will finish fourth in Group C.
