45'HT: Osasuna 0-1 Barca!! Half-time in Pamplona and the hosts are unfortunate to be losing this one. Jordi Alba's goal on the half hour gave Barca the lead, but they have Ter Stegen to thank for their lead. He has made two excellent stops to deny Barja and Ruben Garcia. The goal has definitely calmed any nerves amongst the Barca players though. Osasuna aren't out of this one. Back shortly!

-

Goaaaaaal!

PRVWJust two alterations for Barca from Wednesday's extra-time victory over Sevilla. Umtiti is in for the injured Pique while Griezmann comes in for Dembele. Dembele picked up a knock during the game, but is fit enough for the bench and Griezmann was impressive during his short period on the pitch .
-
PRVWOsasuna make three changes from the 0-1 win at Alaves. Cruz, Oier and Budimir are replaced by Sanchez, Barja and Moncayola.
-
PRVWA reminder that Barca have a huge CL game on Wednesday at PSG. They were beaten 1-4 in the first game so need at least four goals. They also played 120 minutes last Wednesday v Sevilla.
