Fernando Torres has dropped to the Atletico Madrid bench for the clash with La Liga rivals Barcelona at the Camp Nou.

The striker, who made his second debut for the club in the Copa del Rey victory over Real Madrid in midweek, makes way for the returning Mario Mandzukic.

Miranda is back in the squad for Diego Simeone's side, but the Brazilian must settle for a spot on the bench as Jose Gimenez retains his place in central defence.

Barcelona head coach Luis Enrique has predictably kept the attack of Luis Suarez, Lionel Messi and Neymar together, while Javier Mascherano moves back to defence as Sergio Busquets returns in midfield.

There's also a recall for Andres Iniesta, who was an unused substitute in the 5-0 triumph over Elche on Thursday.

Barcelona: Bravo; Alves, Pique, Mascherano, Alba; Iniesta, Busquets, Rakitic; Neymar, Messi, Suarez

Atletico: Moya; Juanfran, Godin, Gimenez, Gamez; Gabi, Tiago, Koke; Griezmann, Mandzukic, Turan
